Therefore the only thing worth taking is a tonne of men with heavy weapons...<BR/><BR/>That said, Guard armies are FUN to play, after all you can throw away half your army and still lose.<BR/><BR/>Not sure about the 'ignore leman russes' argument. After all the battlecannon is remarkable effective against certain armies (Tau/Nid's).suneokunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08085094845127991965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-31710227280185656182009-02-15T23:48:00.000+00:002009-02-15T23:48:00.000+00:00Thanks, Chaps.Darkwing - for some reason your comm...Thanks, Chaps.<BR/><BR/>Darkwing - for some reason your comment didn't get emailed to me: strange...<BR/>Made me chuckle, though - thanks!<BR/><BR/>- D.Admiral Draxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476823273954165890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-34020325908320173092009-02-13T17:34:00.000+00:002009-02-13T17:34:00.000+00:00Woohoo Let's Talk Draxtics!
