Describe your Epic army

[SlickWilly]

Well, to kick it off....
My army is a combined Space Marine/ Imperial Guard army, with the 1,000pt list composed of a Scout company with two Vindicator detachments, a Whirlwind detachment, and a techmarine.

The 2,000pt list is the same but includes and Imperial Guard artillary company with a Commsionar, an Imperial Guard tactical detachment, and a Leman Russ detachment.

The 3,000pt list includes a Warlord Titan with two Multiple Rocket Launchers, a gatling Cannon, and a Volcano cannon.

...

Ok, I have something to admit-this isnt a Epic Armegeddon army. It's from 1st edition epic, which I belive is called Space Marine.

~Willy~

Actually, it was first called Adeptus Titanicus, then Space Marine came along. After that, Epic, Titan Legions, Epic 40'000(boo!) and finally Epic Armageddon(yay!).
Unless I've forgotten something again ;)

As for my army, well' it's too much to simply describe from memory, and as I've not enough desktop space to assemble it all for a photo, I'll give the highlights of my Ultramarines, backed up by a nameless Imperial Guard Detachment and some titans from Legio Metallica (it's a real Legio, look it up ;))
~20-25'000pts
a reaver, two warlords and an imperator titan, countless space marine companies, around 30 land raiders, a shadowsword, manticores, hellstrikes and of course, a throng of cannon fodder...I mean guardsmen. All in all, I have no cule as to how many space marine stands I have, as many are not even glued.
Yes, this started as a Space Marine army.

20-25'000pts

Sweet Jesus! You must have like, a full chapter or something...

Have you ever played a game with them all?

[CryoGenFX]

We often did ~15'000pts a side battles, and on more than one occation 20'000pts a side.
However, I think the most brutal battle was a multiplayer battle, 3vs3, I think it involved somewhere around 80-100'000pts worth of forces in total :D
We never even finished round two, hehe

[Sir Theobold the Lame]

I had three Epic armies of any size (original epic again!)

Imperial Guard: Super Heavy companies of Shadowswords, Baneblades and StormBlades, a Leman Russ Company, a couple of Infantry companies, a squadron of Marauder bombers

Orks: Kult of speed, Goth and Bad Moon tribe boyz, freebooterz, madboys, a Mek Gargant and LOADS of Stompers

Squats: Guild Bikers, Warriors Thunderers and Berserkers, Hearthguard, A Colossus, Landtrain, Cyclops

My cyclops and Colossus managed to take down an Imperator titan between them in one round with lucky dice rolls :P

[SlickWilly]

D you guys play with the Armegeddon Rules, or the Old Spae Marine rules?

[Sir Theobold the Lame]

when i do play (which is rarely) i play with the Space Marine rules- i like the old card organisation system!

[CryoGenFX]

mm, I love the old cards, and I miss them every day :)
But I'm trying to organize something to try Armageddon, cause I like the blast marker suppresion thingy

:)

[SlickWilly]

Cryo: Ever heard of Net Epic (http://netepic.org/EPICentre/)? It's basically the old Space marine rules, with a few tweaks, and you can download it for free here (http://netepic.org/PRIMARCH/01%20NetEpic%20Core%20Rules%20v5[1]%20Final.pdf). (warning-PDF)

[Ickebeebon]

lol, Willey, i was just going to post that same exact thing! but you beat me to the punch! anyways. i have a 2000 point chaos army, and a 1500 point tyranid army. i have 2 biotitans, for my tyranids (3 if you include the dominatrix) and 2 titans for my chaos.

[CryoGenFX]

Heh, no I hadn't heard about netEPIC. I'll check it out.
Looks cool.

[Ickebeebon]

yeah, basically the group on it, took the rules, and edited them until they worked. their very professionally done. they even have army books for nearly any army you can think of.

[Babylon5]

I have created my own Space Marine Chapter in epic. I have 84 Land Raiders, and it is totally mechanized. Every space marine stand has a transport vehicle. I is worth almost 30,000 points. I have a Eldar Army which has 7 titans and 15 Super heavy grav tanks and it is worth 30, 000 points. My IG army has 9 titans including a Imperator and two tank companies and two artillery company.

[marv335]

two tank companies, two super heavy companies, a regimental command, a mech company,
stormtroopers in valkyries, vultures, hydras, helhounds, demolishers, and three thunderbolt squadrons.
and a few titans. :D
