Just one thing - which epic points system are we talking about and what ratios exist between them?!

OK, I was using the Epic Armageddon Basic Imperial Guard list and the "Use As" listing for the older minis.

As to a Ratio for the other editions, I do not know. Someone else with more experiance will have to tell you that one.  :D

Congrats Dafrca - on the 20K and the apprenticeship!

Thank you!

But please spare the more linguistically challenged of us in the Med - when I read the thread title I thought you'd driven over a boxful of guard or something....quite distressing.  :(

Sorry, that was not my intent. :{
Just the idea of driving over my stuff will give me nightmares.  :o

Hi!

On a cursory view netepic points to models involved is higher. So for a given points value there are more models on the table than Epic A.

I'm still working on a direct comparison, but on one example I did the difference was as high as 50%.

So my 20k is only 10k in netepic?  :o

So I guess I need to make up my list in both so I know where I stand.  :laugh:

I am loony you know, so I do things like that.  :p

One nice thing in the NetEpic list I will get to count things like my Imperator Titans, so maybe it will not be so bad. :D

Hi!

This topic sparked my curiosity and made me take out the books and compare them. I made one major mistake. The list I mainly focused on was the Epic A SM one. Depending on how you constuct it the differene between costs and models averages about 20%, more if you buy more units where the difference is greater.

The IG list is another story. The price per unit, if I figured correctly correctly are almost identical. While the organizations between the two rules are different the final price for the same amount of models is pretty darn close.

So you 20k IG in Epic A ARE 20k in netepic, pretty much! :)

The ork list is harder since Epic A has different size warbands, but preliminarily the cost per unit between the two systems are close to each other.

So in summary, epic A is a LOT closer to netepic points-wise than Epic 40k was.

I consider that a good thing! :)

Hi!

It will be interesting to see how close they values will be.

Man, am I envious!

My IG can break the 10K barrier only with help from Titan Legions. :(

Hi Primarch,

*** Do you think that I qualify for the vaunted "Primarch" rank in any of my collections? ***

:D  :p  :;):

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Yes, Maksim, do a count!

Between you and Tas I am sure there will be new apprentices soon. :;):

Hi!

The rule is simple one army in excess of 20k. I dont mind if you "buff it up" with titans to get there. Like I said 20k is 20k is 20k. You get them however you can. :)

What I'm waiting for is somewhat to take up the 50k challenge and be inducted into the "inner circle" of primarchdom. :D

I'm working on it.  :cool:

Like all good armies, I am more restricted by budget then desire.  :;):

I'll have to have a count up of my Imperials to see if they still reach 50K or more...... I'll report back sometime this century...
