Hi

I am about 2-3 years behind what is happening in Epic Armageddon. Since I lost my regular opponent Colin when he moved down south, and the other couple of more casual players have drifted away, I have nt been able to play EA regularly, Thus I have nt followed and kept up to date with various playtest army lists.

Is there are any of the IG playtest lists that includes all of the original IG Super-Heavy Tanks? i.e. Mk1 Baneblade, Shadowsword, Stormblade and Stormhammer?

I need a list that could represent an IG Super Heavy Regiment. I know you can take Baneblades / Shadowswords as Company choices in main rulebook Steel Legion list- that would mean that I would have to take Stormhammers / Stormblades using counts as rule. But would be even better if I could field all 4 with relevant stats.

Thanks very much

James

Go Minervan. They can use all four, plus the Stormsword seige tank. It's in Epic: Raiders, which you can find at: http://www.tacticalwargames.net/archive ... iders.html

The Minervan list in Raiders has all 4 of those. They are stated based on the FW models though not the old SM/TL era ones.

Or you could use Dave's suggestion. It's not as good though.

Yep; the Minnervan tank list from the Raiders supplement has all of those (plus the Stormblade siege-gun superheavy too).

It's a shame when you loose opponents. Perhaps try recruiting new players of GW wargames around your way? Also: do you ever go to the Epic-UK tournaments in the UK? That's a great way to meet-up and play epic evening if you no longer have a local opponent and I believe some up are up around your way - see their tournament calender thingy.

Aww, sad face. Is that what you look like in real life Dave? It can be odd putting a face to an online name (I befriended the Otterman on facebook recently and was amazed to find he wasn't a real otter).

Close, I'm a little darker than that. And have hair...

LOL @ Glyn & Dave

Hi

I was just browsing the Epic UK Tournament Lists. I noticed that Minervan list is n't in there but they had a Ulani Tank Regiment list.

At the risk of opening a can of worms or asking something that has been asked a hundred times before, how come Minervan list is not tournie-legal?

Thanks

James

EpicUK has it's own lists. The minervans are NetEA. I thought they were tourney-legal, but they might be "in development".

The Ulanis are quite cool IMO, but aren't as strong in SHT's as the minervans (as I'm sure you noticed).

Thanks- did nt know why the EUK was different- thanks for explanation.

For what I it looks like would have 2 stick to the Minervan list.

I already have a rulebook IG army I can use if need be.

Cheers

James

Minervans are currently considered "Approved" in NetEA. Thus they are considered a completed, tournament ready list with no significant imbalances.

Hi Jim
Where are you based? Still up north? Have you contacted Tiny-Tim, as I think he may well be in your area.
Also, you could try out the UK tournaments which happen roughly monthly - check out here for the events
if you can get over to Stockport there is a two day competition on Sept 24th-25th with 5 games, or if you can get down to Mansfield, there are other events there (Maelstrom Games)
