Yes, I know the game is not designed for games of 500 points, so please don't raise that
So why did you then sayQuote:
The challenge here is to take the limitations, and try to invent something that can actually win a game.
Yes, it's unbalanced, hard, and near impossible.This is deliberate.
I was aware of this at the start!Quote:
Normal Force Org in 500 points doesn't work. Try rules similar to Combat Patrol. Adepticon seems to have it ironed out.
Necrons will always have a challenge to build a competetive list (I would say regardless of point levels, although that's a topic for a different thread! Don't be angry all you Necron players! :)) until their new codex comes out, and I don't feel that my comments were a slap in the face; I'm not getting at anyone, I'm not being aggressive about it, as all the limitations of the challenge were clearly delineated in the very first post.
The challenge is what it is. So play along or don't, but please don't accuse me of giving people a slap in the face. If you don't like the challenge, that's cool. Just ignore this! You don't have to have a go! If you want to do Adepticon's combat patrol, then that's fine to. I don't, and I'm not going to; nothing against Adepticon, it's just that this challenge is exactly that - difficult and weird and clumsy and I'm not sorry about that. Think of it as a thought experiment if you like.
This is an entirely different challenge to anything else, and some armies (which is to say, Necrons), for whatever reason, cannot have a winning build. I have no problem with this, and I genuinely don't care, as a.) the challenge isn't actually supposed to be fair and balanced, and unlike a tournament, has absolutely no pretentions at being so, and b.) I just won't make those armies at this point level.
