1 Dragoon is $50.

A squad of 3 of what you want is $150. You want to run the awesome formation? 3x 2 Dragoons than 1-2 Ballestari so $400 for you.

Good stuff.

A grand total of 24 points of miniatures if fielded as a Kannon Lobba or Zzap Gun.

For 46 bucks.

I challenge you to beat that. Spoiled as shot with your 55 points for 50$

"Got you, Yugi! Your Rubric Marines can't fall back because I have declared the tertiary kaptaris ka'tah stance two, after the secondary dacatarai ka'tah last turn!"

"So you think, Kaiba! I declared my Thousand Sons the cult of Duplicity, which means all my psykers have access to the Sorcerous Facade power! Furthermore I will spend 8 Cabal Points to invoke Cabbalistic Focus, causing the rubrics to appear behind your custodes! The Vengeance for the Wronged and Sorcerous Fullisade stratagems along with the Malefic Maelstrom infernal pact evoked earlier in the command phase allows me to double their firepower, letting me wound on 2s and 3s!"

"you think it is you who has gotten me, yugi, but it is I who have gotten you! I declare the ever-vigilant stratagem to attack your rubrics with my custodes' ranged weapons, which with the new codex are now DAMAGE 2!!"

"...which leads you straight into my trap, Kaiba, you see I now declare the stratagem Implacable Automata, reducing all damage from your attacks by 1 and triggering my All is Dust special rule!"

I said one of.. Ork mek gun is also pretty expensive.

Orks are probably the most expensive army to collect? Maybe Tyranids?

Tyranid Ripper Swarm, taken in groups of 3 to 9, costs $14 per model. They are 13 points base.

"There is a cancer eating at the Imperium. With each decade it advances deeper, leaving drained, dead worlds in its wake. This horror, this abomination, has thought and purpose that functions on an unimaginable, galactic scale and all we can do is try to stop the swarms of bioengineered monsters it unleashes upon us by instinct. We have given the horror a name to salve our fears; we call it the Tyranid race, but if is aware of us at all it must know us only as Prey."

In Germany the dragoons were only 35 euros in the GW store.

Actually mostly everything GW wise is alot cheaper in Germany.

Tau Broadside battlesuits are pretty pricey for their points (not as bad as Ork mek gunz or Skitarii anything, but still...). $50 for one suit (worth about 65 points IIRC, I don't have the codex handy at the moment), and you always want to run 3 of them, or 6 plus a riptide in the infamous Firebase Support Cadre.

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/7/24, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~16000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Imperial Knights: ~2300 | Leagues of Votann: ~1300 | Tyranids: ~3400 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000 | Kruleboyz: ~3500 | Lumineth Realm-Lords: ~700

Eldar Support Platforms. $65 for one, costs 30 points standard.

$2.17 per point to $1.92 for the Orks

8,000 pts and counting
1,000 points, now painting.

Uh.. Eldar support platforms are $41AUD, so it's $1.36AUD/pt
And with the Ork Mek Gunz being $67AUD, that's $2.79AUD/pt, assuming basic loadout. Even if you only use the options the Mek Gunz contain (requiring you to use one of the more expensive gunz) it's ~$1.60AUD/pt, still worse than the support platform.

A Mucolid Spore is 15 points and only comes in the $63 Tyrannocyte box.

Odds are low that you'll want the exact combination of Tyrannocytes, Sporocysts, and Mucolids to not have partial boxes

Whoops, totally spaced there. Not sure what I was thinking about. Derp.

At the very least, even if Dragoons are expensive, at least they are pretty good unit wise.

Rippers with Spinefists are also up there. They only come in the Genestealer box, need 4+ models per base, 3+ bases per unit. And I want to say there's only two or four models per box... but I don't remember. Either way, that's a minimum of $117 per ~45pts.

How much is a sentinel? Because RnH run them at 20 points a piece.

can neither confirm nor deny I lost track of what I've got right now.
