For some reason I have vision in my head of a Imperial Guard army with infiltrate and 4 points a model.


Let's see on a standard 6 x4 table.

Let's see a circular base is 1 inch across roughly; it has to be placed 1 inch away. So lets save it takes 36 models with a 1 inch gap between each model.


I'd need a gap of 1 inch between rows ; so 12 rows

So a Area of 72 x 24 with 1 model in every other square would be roughly 432 models to fill a area of 6 x 2.

Someone can check my math but there are 1728 inches in that area you would need a space of 1 inch to place the model then one inch on either side so I came out to 432 roughly.

432 x4 is 1728 strangely enough.

So for 1728 points I could fill half the board with my miniatures 1 inch appart.


If my math is right.

If I lose it is because I had bad luck, if you win it is because you cheated.

Coherency is two inches.

Oh, and the ability to mass infiltrators will probably be removed in the new codex.
