Post subject:  Trouble maker games : count as?

Just put a order through TMG's and had a few questions as to what and or who used some of the miniatures (as in what lists are they in) and he doesn't seem to have his own forum board on TacComs so I put it here . I bought a pile of cybershadow units cus I always wanted to use the 2 ordinatus Majoris I already have so I got 6 of the Minoris to go with em (plus I love the model for em) and 1 of each set of infantry they sell, and I was going to get more but...

The stuff that I didn't get, almost 100% because I don't know what the hell lists use them, are the following.

Novan Gladstonian
Novan Steel Rain
Novan Wellington Heavy Transport

Thanks!

There's rules but no NetEA lists for all of them.
Evil & Chaos had them in the pre-Vaaish AdMech force list. You can find where it left off in the current compendium and the Epic: Mechanicum document. I am unsure as to if either version would ever see the light of day as a supported list however. Best asking.

I am also not sure what Vaaish plans to do with the lists. Not that he's not been clear, just that I don't know wha his roadmap is specifially. Again, pop over to AdMech land if curious.

So my suggestions (which almost exactly mirror Rastas) are:
Wellington=Counts as Gorgon
Gladstonian=Counts as Bombard
Steel Rain=Counts as Deathstrike

That should really stretch your hobby dollar as you can get serious reuse between Steel Legion and DKoK and ADMECH PDF (possibly)

Rasta: good idea on the counts-as Manticore

EDIT: Considering there's some very sexy AdMech stuff coming out of the heresy line for FW recently, all the above could easily stand in for plenty of stuff there as well. Even if Vaaish doesn't go there in his lists it wouldn't sprise me if Fatdex and the rest of the Epic HH crew build a list either.

I agree with JZ ...

Wellingtons would make a good Crassus proxy, which lists use these again? It'd have the benefit of an armoured roof but would carry only 35 troops (7 stands). I plan to glue two of them close together on a base and count it as a single Gorgon.

Gladstonian's could be good proxies for a Dominus, which unusually has 40k rules but no model. It has 3 Bombard mortars on top (6BP ignore cover slow firing) but can only fire one if it moves that turn.

I have hazy memories of E&C producing an AM list including these vehicles and more regular IG tanks than the current Skitiarii list, but I don't know if it got any playtesting at all. Maybe it was one of the lists in E&C's sadly unfinished epic supplement which the community didn't seem to be motivated to work on?
