Tempted to say Orks. . . a unit of Nobz with all the fixins' costs a cool 1122 points, and you can have five of them.

However, I'm not sure if the rest of the FOC would let you get expensive enough to match that Necron list. . . Hmm.

HQ: 411

Ghazghkull Thraka - 225

Maximally equipped Bikeboss - 168

Elites: 3366

(3x) 10 Nobz in Battlewagons, with all legal equipment - 1122

Troops: 3219

(2x) 10 Nobz in Battlewagons, with all legal equipment and Painboy - 1122

30 'Ard Boyz, 3x rokkits, Stikkbombs, PK/BP/'Eavry armor Nob - 405

(2x) 30 Boyz, stikkbombs, 3x rokkits, PK/BP/'Eavy armor Nob - 285

Fast Attack: 1275

(3x) 5 Deffkoptas, bigbomms, buzzsaws, TL rokkit launchas - 425

Heavy Support: 1635

10 Flash Gitz with all upgrades, Painboy, max ammo runts, led by Kaptain Badrukk - 635

(2x) 10 Flash Gitz with all upgrades, Painboy, max ammo runts - 500

Grand Total; 9,906


I stand corrected. You CAN get more expensive than that Necron list!

Elites:

Total now 2073

Troops:

6 x 10 paladins, each unit with: 4 psycannons, 4 falchions, one brotherhood banner and one warding stave, psybolt ammo, all with one master crafted weapon @ 765/unit

Total now 6663

Total now = 9411

Might have not added that up right and the paladin thing might disqualify this army but it is 'codex legal!' Bet I could have skimmed out a few more points too!

Done! As Lesser Daemons do not have a place in the FOC (as far as I know - I'm not a CSM player) they don't count for this contest.

Need razorbacks for all the Purifiers and Purgation squads. I also think you're missing out on some of the upgrades.

Same list but with razorbacks, I come out to 10566 points.

3x Purifiers with razorbacks (fully loaded) - 531 each

Outisde of armies which can spend infinite points (like CSM with lesser demons, or eldar with infinite seer councils), I seem to recall last time I paid attention, it was space wolves who just barely edged out guard, with everyone else in a very, very distant pool down at the bottom.

Of course, that was before GK, so I don't know.

Apparently Blood Angels are able to take squads larger than their dedicated transport's capacity. I couldn't find the restricting rule in any of the usual places, but I assumed it was there. Without that, the list goes up 360 points, for a grand total of 26896.

I don't believe any of the recent codices have a restriction on squad size for transports. Vanilla Marines, GKs, DE, and Necrons are not required to fit inside their DTs to take them.

GK and Vanilla Marines don't, DE do (page 91, under Dedicated Transports). I don't have access to the Necron book, though I know Warriors of any size can take Ghost Arks. I don't think any unit can exceed a Night-whatever's capacity except Warriors, and they can't take one. It's a tiny minority of books with a sea of precedent to the contrary, so I erred on the side of caution.

ok here it goes.....my 24,379 point LEGAL force chart army. I'll keep it simple for typing sake.

Imperial guard take the cake with models, points are damn close.

5x Priests with evisirators, 2x tech priests with 2 gun servitors and 3 normal = 670 points

HQ
Command squad with strakkan, kell, nork, medpack, heavy flamer, and 2x plasma guns. All upgrades and transports = 675 points
Command squad with full out kit, no specials, same weapons. = 505 points

ELITE
3x ogryn squads with 9 ogryns and chimeras with full options = 530 points

Troops (This is where the guard take the cake)
platoons with full conscripts, 5x infantry with max upgrades and chimeras, 3x heavy squads with las, 2x special weapons with plasma, two platoons with special characters, platoon commanders, commishioners all maxed out weapons.
16470 points!

Fast attack
3x hellhound squads with 3x bane wolves with max upgrades = 1809 points

Heavy Support
3x lemun russ executioner with plasma, las, full upgrades, one tank has pask.
2660 points


The platoons alone make IG the masters of point spam. That's 141 models PER platoon lol.

This thread again? Can we get this purged? Blood Angels win with INSANE, multi-thousand point troop choices of 30 death company in each. This thread comes up every week. I predict it'll come up as soon as the BT book comes too-of course, with that book, maybe a DC-beating army will show up, as BT is supposed to be the horde-SM army.

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.
