Trial Epic Army Lists - tneva82

The PDF file contains all army list I have currently made barring space marine variant list (because I realised it's flawed from core when I made practise list with what I had made so far. It would be in effect superior army list except in certain situations which can be avoided easily. Ergo I'm either going to redesign it from scratch (hard since it's supposed to be codex chapter after all) or drop the idea and just use standard list. Original variant list was born only because I thought variant way of choosing army list that could be interesting and fit organisation nicely(and make it more obvious)) plus Gargant mobs army list which currently exists only as set of notes on how it could differ from orkimedes gargant mobs in a way that would fit better on fluff of the gargant mobs in campaign.

It also contain all the fluff I have written for them so far. I also didn't re-edit pages so there's blank pages which will contain fluff for those armies once I get around working on it.

However note that there's few bugs with the lists that I noticed. They are:
  • There needs to be note in eldar list that presence of seer council does NOT increase strategy rating unlike in Ulthwe eldars.
  • In Autarch entry (most logical choice) it should also read that the second exarch will cost +50 pts (exarch handling is bit different to normal lists. To prevent smaller than biel-tan warhosts become cheaper exarch delivery system while keeping chance for multiple exarchs (as fits a craftworld based on aspect warriors) the second exarch costs more than first.
  • PDF lightning strike flight should possibly be 3 fighters (to prevent players being forced to buy second pack or waste model, second pack which they couldn't use anyway on this list!) for 300 pts.
  • And on Urithair list when listing initiative values there ought to be and between phantom and warlock titan :D (guess this must be like when GW guys start proof reading their work. Find out all sort of minor typos here and there...)
Some additional notes.
  • If you wonder about landa formation pricing reason is that while 2 strong landa formation increases strenght of formation quite nicely(ergo second landa costs more than first if you buy them into same formation) the third one likely does not. At that point you have spent soooooo much on transports for single formation that is going to be bloooooody expensive (even without transports) that it gets prohibitely expensive. Just my theory though. Needs to get that one playtested.
  • Cadian 83rd list is most likely to suffer changes. Plan for list is to get INFANTRY based list which still can work with existing models (would be bloody inconvinient to be forced to repaint stuff because new variant list doesn't allow units). Regiment itself is based on my old (nowadays non-existant) 40k IG army which was based heavily on drop troopers, ergo drop troopers.
Playtesting amount is wery little. 2 games, one involving titan legions vs gargant mobs, other involving orks vs PDF. However last weekend got 4 games played which will result in some minor tweaks when I get around pondering on results(this day school keeps me busy enough).
