So go the 4 formation regardless of rarity?

Hmmm. That would be fine too as it means no real change to the current list.

Or ... just forget the tank for it's too rare to make an impact in epic ... ;)

Nothing like as rare as the communications tanks in your Scions list, then? ;)

And this is a siege list, so having a rare siege tank isn't that unlikely either.

I can't believe this has reached 10 pages! What a sad lot we are!

Agree...

And I'm slightly annoyed that this variant is ok while Ares is a "No"...

Better to have a discussion and annoy a few people who could otherwise ignore the thread than to have no development at all ;)

Well, the Ares' canon status is unclear at best, I believe?

So as the armour issue is settled we have the options of:

- 1 formations of 4 Achilles
- an upgrade of "Upgrade up to one Land Raider to a Land Raider Achilles for x points". (this available for Land Raider formations and formations who can take Land Raiders as upgrades and/or transports)
- both

make the most sense to me, though as an upgrade for formation will we not see the razorback phenomenon where you end up with 4 land raiders and 1 Achilles?

Maybe it is worded bad but the intention is that to switch one Land Raider for a Land Raider Achilles. So the unit number in the formation remains unchanged.

However doesn't the achilles have a smaller transport allowance (~1 stand) so you'd end up 1 stand short for transport?

I don't think switching is of any utility. Better to just have separate entries.

There should be plenty of space, considering the various formations that have been lost.

I have placed it into the IF list as replace any Land Raiders with Achilles for +25 points each.

Nice and simple for now.
