Despite being Init 1+, Marines almost always seem to get into an "Anything but a '1'" situation that really requires their Supreme Commander...

That's why I'm always glad to have an additional reason to kill him off early... *LAUGH*

Now living in Boston... any EPIC players want to meet up?

So that makes it an extra large "carrot on a stick" then  

Well I am gatecrashing the Marine 'convention' with Eldar, but following the same approach with my SC.

Aspect Warhost, (3x DA, 3x SSc, 2x FD)
Autarch and Exarch in Wave Serpents    600
Guardians in Wave Serpents                  350
Guardians with Support Weapons          200
Falcons (2x Firestorms)                          250
Engine of Vaul Cobra                              250
Engine of Vaul Void Spinner                   250
Wind riders (1x Vyper)                           200
Night Spinners                                       175
Rangers (x5)                                          125
Night Wings                                           300
Night Wings                                           300

Regarding the SC, I am much less concerned that he happens to be in the BTS formation. My die rolls are usually so poor that it is immaterial when I use the re-roll, or indeed if it is removed

Word of warning, Ginger is on a roll 'cos he got a draw with that very list against me  

Still rolled more 1's than anyone else I've ever seen.

Only 'cos we played past your bed-time and you were half asleep

Have to say I was a little suprised at just how late it was when we finished!

I don't know how much i'm looking forward to this, it's all getting a bit worrying! I'm joining the marines with the following:

T.hawk
T.Hawk
Landing Craft
T.Bolts
T.bolts
Devastators in RHino
Devastators in RHino with +1 Razorback, Hunter, SC
Assault with Chaplain
Bikes with Chaplain
Bikes
Terminators with Chaplain
Scouts in Rhino.

Both Steve and RUss are bringing armies with several Super Heavies and 2 tank companies; one also includes a reaver and a warhound! Glad to see the back of so many chaos lists for once; and where have the orks gone?!

Great minds and all that.

Felt that I needed a change of style.

I just added a touch more artillery for your Speed Freaks, so I guess you will do better against the Marine / titan lists.

Whilst I think Void Spinners are great, I just can't face painting BT Eldar.
