Hello all,
In a recent post about my 1500 pts fleet (that already contains an Emperor BB) I have been advised in an other forum to also take an Armageddon BC. While the advise is definitively sound advise from a gaming perspective I don't know if it is a good move from a background point of view.
I see BB and BC to be something rare but I don?t know if it is true or not. I am quite sure BB *are* rare but what about BCs? Are they really a weird sighting or are they relatively common? I know they are supposed to be created out of regular cruisers (at least some of them) but they are still defined with a mix of respect and rareness in them in the fluff. Yeah, granted, some other stuff in the fluff is more than debatable, but you get the point. If I upgrade a tyrant to be an Armageddon battle cruiser I would be getting a BB, a BC and 3 line cruisers in the fleet (apart from 2 escort squadrons). Do that seem an average fleet to you or is it to ?big ship? heavy?
I am more than likely to test this fleet because more or less has everything that I wanted to test on the battlefield (mainly NC x2, torps and attack craft) but I don?t know if I should fix the fleet to be that way even if it works. I am quite a fluffer when it comes to the GW games
So, how common are the BCs?
Cheers,
Xavi
