Hows about being able to group army lists by their points limit, so all >500 point lists appear together, >750, >1000 etc?

Maybe just up it by 250 point increments up to 2000 points, then 2500, then 3000+?

That'd be brilliant for a quick and easy compare of armies in a similar points bracket, to get an idea of what you're likely to face, or to compare your army to that of the same race?

Probably work

The problem is that it's nontrivial to know how many points a list is unless the post is in a well-defined enough format to be able to programatically search. About 20% of the lists on the first page of the sub-forum don't have a point value in the title, and I can think of more than a handful I've read where the OP, in his inevitable excitement, forgot to actually state how many points he was working with.

Sure, I thought it could be mandatory I formation inputted by a drop down box. Simple and quick to help people to remember and it'll also help with the search function
