Praetorians as support formation : 250pts for 5 units
Praetorians as formation upgrade : 100pts for 4 units
Is it normal ?

And you forgot the 'Executioner', 'Stormblade' and 'Stormsword' profiles ;)

And I just realise an Ordinatus Majoris cost 400pts (and not 300 like in the printer-friendly list at the end of the 3.13) :(

Accidental, assume 200pts for 4 units.

I promise I'll add them next time.

Yeah I bit the bullet and made everything printer-friendly.

Hmm, I probably would have doubled the price of the combat servitors rather than halved the unit... too easy to wipe them out and break them quickly at a core unit of only 5 stands. They don't have the advantages of expensive infantry stands like terminators being able to teleport or anything, and as it's expensive to transport them at one chimera per stand they're better off being used as a fat garrisson unit and 5 expensive stands in garrison will be wiped out too easy.

Just my opinion, only having played them once as a core formation so far.

But now they can be carried in a Corvus...

Corvus, true, but that may be all they are good for now (edited post above)

Any interest to join your Skitarii list with my Word Bearers list and perhabs with Hondas Elysian list together in one supplement?

I based my Word Bearers list on the novel "Dark Apostle" where all three armies where featured.

Here is the thread to my WordBearers:

I think I would've preferred a points increase too, but I'll give them a try as 5 stands per.

Any thought to making the Praetorian udgrade 2 stands for 100pts?

More affordable & similar to Ogryns in effect.

Just a thought.
