I really like these rules for the Emperor, they're neat and look fantastically scary
What else would you expect for something that costs that many points to take? ?
Imperators can do
tons of damage, as I'm sure you've realized, but I've found it's best used in a game of more than 5,000 points. Anything less and it soaks up too many points and you wind up with a small army.
I'd agree with that
they're neat though. I'd totally field one in a game of 4000-5000 points for sure. I was doing the calculations for how much such an army would come in at from my own list of available models. I could do one with 1 Imperator, 2 Reavers, 1 Warlord and 4 Warhounds for about 5530 points. One of the reavers even comes in at exactly 500 so I could drop it to get back to 5030. It'd be a lot of fun to field though!
Someday I wana play a game of NetEpic just to get a feel for the way it's different then E:A (Which is just about every way possible looking at the rules!) and I shall field my Emperor (I'm gonna find a use for that model someday! I swear it! Even if I have to beg and plead and spend months working on E:A stats for it which work and are fun to use!).
