Largest intact army

[Stubbdog]

I am a noob and only have a few so far, but I will catch up soon enough.

 

But, just cared to see what kind of collections there are around here. Had people on another site boasting about 25,000 point armies. And 25,000 points is a large number indeed. But, that doesn't tell me much.

 

25,000 =

 

11 sections of un-modified Thunderbirds

83 sections of unmodified Heavy Infantry

 

And then of course there are always those that say they have 25,000, but neglect to say that this is on paper, while in reality half of it is either still in blister, or has not actually been purchased yet, just planned for.

 

Anyway, so that led to questions to get more in depth information on the subject...

 

So, I figured I would ask the same here. How many are in your largest intact army?

If I fielded everything I currently have, I could field the following (sorry 'bout the formatting):

Or, put more legibly,

 

59 Total CAV

12 Total Infantry

10 Total APCs

9 Total AFVs

22 Total Tanks

18 Total Gunships

 

and a total PV (stock) of 28704. As far as I am concerned, however, my collection has a lot of room to grow - but it is on back burner while I assemble a half dozen different Warlord armies. Of the above, perhaps 6-10 items are still in blisters - because I got a box from Reaper early this afternoon.

Here is exactly what have ready to play. This means they are out of the blister, and glued together. Not all have paint, but 70% do.

Total point value of the above 20,272

 

That's what I have. I mainly have this selection because I bought all of my stores selection a while back because we were going through some financial times at the store and CAV is a game I see myself playing for quite a while.

Had people on another site boasting about 25,000 point armies. And 25,000 points is a large number indeed. But, that doesn't tell me much.

 

 

And then of course there are always those that say they have 25,000, but neglect to say that this is on paper, while in reality half of it is either still in blister, or has not actually been purchased yet, just planned for.

And almost all of us from Mil-Net also post over here.

 

 

 

I have 16 playable sections. All out of blisters and mostly all painted. They come to just a touch over 25K after modifications and just over 18K without modifications.

 

 

I hate to type just enough that I'm not going to list them all, but only 4 of those sections are infantry. 2 are tanks and 2 are aircraft. None are missiles like the Whisper or Ripper.

 

 

 

None of it is "imaginary" or "notional"

[Stubbdog]

Hey, I know there are some that post in both places. I didn't name anyone from there did I. Sorry if you were thinking i meant you or something. I was just saying it so that people wouldn't include them (NIB or unpurchased minis). That's all.

 

I seemd to not ask the question the right way anyway, cause both WG and FTO answered listing everyting they own, not what their largest army is (unless everything they own belongs to the same army)

[Leech]

I have a Battalion, which consists of 4 companies. I'm raising an additional two, but right now they're paper tigers.

 

The total fieldable forces I have amounts to 17 CAV sections, 4 Infantry Sections, 4 Aviation sections, 1 Armour section.

 

I'm in the middle of raising an additional 5 CAV sections, 8 Armour sections, 4 Infantry sections and 3 Aviation sections. Most of these are still in the planning stage because the models I need for them are still not released. So hopefully, by this time next year I should have my army completed.

 

As of today, I can field over 30,000 points before upgrades, weapon mods or anything else. heck, I've probably more than that if I worked it out fully.

[Froggy the Great]

I did a quick paste-up in CAV-RC, and I have about 36K in models, after the armor, movement and TL upgrades.

[Stormus]

I have a total of 14 sections and I'm working on getting up to 21. Its about 16k unmodified.

What I have so far:

2 70 dictators

4 scorpions

2 spartans

3 spiders

2 starhawk V

1 starhawk VI

1 regent

1 archer

1 thunderbird

1 revenant

1 puma

1 specter

1 gladiator

1 ghost

2 hunters

2 flails

4 tsuisekis

2 kharls

2 ghasts

4 manticores

2 lynxs

3 regular infantry

4 heavy infantry

3 heavy mortars

 

I may have missed some because I'm not at home.

[Spire]

Not meaning to brag...

 

White Mice

102 CAVs (inc 8 variant models)

28 VTOLs (inc 6 w/sml inf bays)

16 APCs

77 AFVs (inc 6 variant models)

53 INF

4 MSLs

 

 

70 Sections

50822 points w/o toys (inf weapons, upgrades, etc)

all but 7 AFVs (Custom models awaiting parts) and 5 inf stands (Hvy INF w/Lt and Hvy Mortars) mounted and painted

 

 

Harelquins, led by a Command Section belonging to General Drake

24 CAVs

6 VTOLs (inc 2 w/inf bay)

6 APCs

6 AFVs

23 INF

 

 

17 sections (one w/one models)

10336 points w/o toys (inf weapons, upgrades, etc)

5 additional INF in paint, and waiting on lots of Centipedes!!

 

This started out as my "demo" force and a painting contest set of CAV minis. It has grown into a full fledged "loaner" force.

 

Both units also have 4 supply trucks (scratch built from Whisper Missile Trucks) and 4 Mitso-Ta XS1 Missile Systems (see CW#9, pg 19). I have updated my XS1s to be JoR1 legal.

Spire,

 

Anyway you can snap a few pics and share?

[warlordgarou]

I think the corollary to this question would also be "How long have you been playing?" After all, 30 sections after 2 months is more impressive than 34 sections after 3 years, all other things being equal.

[Spartan6]

I think the corollary to this question would also be "How long have you been playing?"  After all, 30 sections after 2 months is more impressive than 34 sections after 3 years, all other things being equal.

Now that's changing "Da Rulez" there.

 

My advice to new players: Don't try and have more minis than anyone else, it's just not important. Find minis that you like to play or find appealing in anyway; stats, manufacturer, looks, or what your unit needs.

Spire,

Pics of what, the whole thing or the variant units?
