So you know those annoying last few points in an army list, typically 4 or less, that you have to spend but have nothing to spend them on? Ok, marines and the like can atleast get search lights or something, though I'm not aware of anything similar for Xenos. Admittedly I only have experience of Dark Eldar and, as of this evening, craftworld eldar.

What could be added to a codex to use these up? For 4 points an IC can throw 2 grenades?

Any ideas?

One thing I liked about xcom's vs mode was that if you spent less points than the opponent, you got first turn.

Sometimes when I play with my Chaos I just fill out 20 points with 5 cultists. Boom, meatshield.

20 points is a doable amount though - you can usually find an upgrade or 2, be it power swords, melta bombs, shields of varying sorts etc.

Even 5 points is doable, it's those final 4 or less points that just scratch away at my eyes that I wish I could fill!

Really miss the wargear cards from 2nd. That's one of my biggest misses from back then. Bionic Eye = +1 to hit, Bionic Arm = +1 strength, loads of different options that you could add to a character, only some were race specific and they cost anything between 1 and 50+ points.
