| I'm all about scenario play so I'd love to see a supplement for it. The tourney scenario is nice and exciting but as always variety is the spice of gaming and scenarios are the best way to add something to your game and put the battle in context. |

They landed right from low orbit, not via thunderhawks.
Having a Ravenwing jetbike detachment with Planetfall would be pretty awesome though.
Indeed it would be.  Maybe give it to land speeders instead?

| Well we were known for daring air assaults in the RT days when the Ravenwing performed the first orbital assault via bullock jet cycles on Rynn's World but I suppose that is getting a wee bit too old school for the list as it is. I'd probably keep away from making bikes great in air assaults ... |

| Both are very important but in a minis game like E:A I think is important to make sure that the rules bend to the setting. E:A does a good job of emulating its source material and that is the most important thing. You should design based on the fluff but with an eye toward good rule desi... |

| Indeed and, as I said, he had no AA weaponry.  I was expecting the 3000 point game yesterday so he could field a t-bolt formation and add some AA to his second Warlord but he apparently got nothing else built.  So overall it was a good way to compare the the first list I used against him and t... |

| I've got a tube full of red floral beads and there are about 30 or so in there but I don't often find myself needing more than half of that at any given (including what my opponent uses) time so 15-20 sounds like it should be more than enough unless you have a load of large formations. |

| Alright, I got a chance to try the list out in a 1700 point game tonight against the AMTL again. Same lists we had in the battle report I posted in the batrep section (minus the points from the cheaper terminators and characters which brought things down by 45 points to put us right on 1700 in... |

| There's just something striking about a well done Crimson Fist army, if I weren't a Dark Angels fanatic then I'd certainly be painting the CF up instead. A beautiful army in every way.

How nefarious! How dare those upstart marines make use of ordained Imperial Navy *pew pew pew* weaponry! They should be happy with their short ranged guns dagnabbit.  |

| Hmm, fluff indicated that it was only the Nova Class that carried a startlingly small number of troops with it as the Imperial Navy gets testy if Marine ships have no troop carry capacity (as that is the only reason they still get their own fleets).  From the sounds of it the other escorts could ... |

| Sounds good to me then. With the 50 points we'll save on two detachments that's enough to get another character or upgrade an existing one to a Supreme Commander. It also makes it easier to justify sacrificing one to hold up a Warlord Titan in the game tomorrow. I'll give the list ... |
