| What matchups would you like to see? This is clearly just for fun. Squarescales and I decided we'd like to see:
1x Greenfang Druid
63x Graycloak Ranger
64x Wolf
vs.
1x King Snurre
21x Ettin Skirmisher
I'm picturing this played out on a standard map (if there are enough squares). I'd love to see the Ettins battling a sea of wolves.
What else could be fun to run? | |

Zenako could do it.
If I had access to Zenako's collection, I'd run:
200x Sage
vs.
66x Xill
1x Azer Raider
For the first three rounds, it's 200 Sages against the one Azer Raider. | |

| If the spoiler list is reliable, I'd like to run 750 Kobold Zombies. Other than this, I'd run the following band for sure if I could but I know I would never get this many minis so it is but a dream. [:(]
22 Black Dragons(Medium)
3 Kobold Miners
Just for kicks, I wonder how 52 Ochre Jelly minis and 4 Kobold Miners would do? | |

| I`ve found without an activation limit, its easy to go to many fodder pieces. Numbers has its own reward and punnishment. We play similar to this probably once every couple of months.
Lots of fodder can just equal more in a cone/area of effect. Or more cleave bait. etc. Plus critters like wand experts or archers that can keep picking off fodder.
40 flameskulls would be fun though ;)

The flame skulls idea is nifty as well.
How much is Epic Lord Soth? I can't remember of the top of my head. Use him and then fill w/ Chraals, that would be fun.

| Against those fodder bands, I'd run:
2 Storm Giants
2 Brass Samurais
and then fill out the rest of the band with stuff like an epic Rikka and maybe some greycloaks
holy whirlwind! imagine that devastation... I'd take on one of those 111 stirge bands! [:D] | |

Are you sure?
GMA, move 14 Stirges into base with each of your giants, and attack 14 times for +17(15 magic). That is a potential 210 damage.
At the same time, send 8 to each of the Brass Samurai's, and attack 8 times for +17(15 magic), a potential 120 damage.
What I would actually take would be Epic Elmister, a 2x Elf Pyromancers, 2x Methling Pyromancers, 2x Couatls, 2x Archmage, Inspiring Marshal, Moon Elf fighter, 5x Evermeet Wizards Fill with Greycloaks and Wolves (at least 5 *NOT* being Timber).
Very likely first turn fireball x6. | | | |

Admittedly, I hadn't thought about a GMA, because the 111 stirges is 999 points and an inspiring marshall wouldn't fit. a 100 stirge band with an IM and other stuff would be another store altogether. I still think I could put up a fight with the 2 storm giants (maybe I'd need 3) but it would certainly be fun to try. | |
