What I'm saying is, from my perspective and experiences, I don't see *how* such a list can sweep other lists with ease.
What was the terrain like, which armies did it face, etc?  How does The Baron do it?  What's his play style and tactics that appear to be unbeatable?
Chroma the game I had against the Baron was a very good game. I was in command of the game having with a clear advantage over his force until it all went pear shaped and I charged the Phantom at the double to shoot at the Revenants which was a silly thing to do since they had activated and the Falcons near them had not activated, but I want to land the killing blow onto his force. The Phantom did little to the Revenants before the Falcons removed four DC of the Phantom and the holofield ÂÂ
This was the turn point of the game that help the Baron back into the game.
Yes - that's exactly what happened - you were in total control of the game ;-)
(Actually he really was - i still don't understand why he shot the Revenants not the Falcons.....)
As for my strategy in general.....
The two Flacons, scorpions and Revenant formed a central Battlegroup, one guardian host covered the blitzkrieg objective on overwatch and the second came through the gate to provide cover once the armoured formation took a central position from which to jump-shoot-jump usually from behind cover. The Aspects and Vampire formed a 'Threat in Being' and usually came in late for the Blitzkrieg or whatever else was on offer.
It helped that I didn't face ANY barrage templates during the tournamnet which allowed me to huddle the formations tightly and in good cover.
Overall no really significant 'brainy moments'
Revenant are definitely awesome. they attract way more attention then they deserve and everyone seems very scared of them.
Cheers
People are scared of them for good reason.
