The "heavy" Commander joins the HYMP broadside unit, just for safe keeping and assistance with taking out light vehicles/flyers. They sit in the middle of the majority of the army, with the 12 inch bubble 4D6 deny the witch rolls. Two riptides on either side of this unit- dependant on the board/ terrain.

Torchstar joins the marker+ gun drone, plasma unit. I know there is a lot going on with this unit but I've ( from experience) learnt that it is better to make the most out of the BS5 drones when the commander cannot fire. ( C&C, MSSS)

The broadside twins with the Heavy rail rifles i like for the fluff. They are named after the twin moons and are extremely competitive with one another. In game I like the idea they are tallying up who killed the most, the ironic thing though, is that HRR broadsides are crap- and that is reflected with these two.


ha no I kid, they sit right at the back of the board- out of range of everything but in range to shoot, hoping for those lucky shots on light tanks. they are also useful for sitting on objectives (especially BGNT)

Monat Crisis Crazy suit is a line breaker or a suicide exterminate your basilisk kinda guy.



Anyone like my list and have idea's to add to it both in fluff and competitiveness? This is my most recent mock up and I feel like its come along way since playing with just the T:E book, but I wanna keep changing it. I'm starting to feel guilty running 3 riptides(which is what I have been doing recently) so I'm dropping 1/2 from the list.

I appreciate idea's, thoughts, banter or criticism!

Cheers mi amigos.
