I thought I would let you know, Senera, that 250 points is very expensive for a character. That doesn't make it a bad thing, but in the average 1500 game, it means that a whole sixth of the army is being put into a single model. Again, not a criticism, just making you aware.

[Norabder]

For 250 points you would want at least 3 wounds, probably 4. As well as S5 ld10 and more than 1A probably 3A at least.

[Apothecary Meros]

Although, such high stats would probably put you out of proportion with the datasheets for other characters. Now that Norabder mentions it though, someone like Senera would probably have Ld-10.

[senera2000]

So... Ok, What points would you recommend?
I am allured by W3 though.
Also, Meros, why Ld-10?

[Apothecary Meros]

Because Senera strikes me as someone with an inspiring presence. Maybe 3 wounds would work, although in that case, I'll be giving all my characters 3 wounds aswell ;D

[senera2000]

My problem is that Ld-10 and W-3 are Captain level stuff. Senera is not nearly that good of a leader or a warrior.
Senera's main point is supposed to be sticking around. Basically being the toughest model this side of the galaxy, but still not Captain level. So Ld-10 is out of the window.
Not sure about the 3W though. On the fence there.

[Apothecary Meros]

I'd go for 3 Wounds then, it fits the high point cost. Having a 2 wound model for more points than a chapter master like Dante who has 4, seems a tad out of proportion XD

[senera2000]

Ok, so... W3 and 200pts? or W3 and 250pts?

[Apothecary Meros]

3 wounds. Let me put him through the calculator again just to double check the pricing, although even then, I'll reduce it, since it's certainly not the most accurate calculator.

[Apothecary Meros]

Running him through again, and being confused about how u got my first answer, Senera costs only about 200 points, and that's with 3 wounds

[senera2000]

Haven't you been praying to the machine spirit of your points calculator recently?
