I think we should close the poll now, its very clear from these results the thoughts of the world at large.

So... now we close it? wink.gif

IMHO, the only good argumnent for not including SCs is if we wanted to follow the exact format of the ETC.

And I'm not a guy who normally fields SCs but feel pretty strongly that if it's a no comp thing then SCs should be allowed...

Now limiting to one per FoC slot would be something I'd agree with...

I acctidently voted yes; I thought it was ban SCs rather than allow.



As for Monaliths; ban them too; that way people wont consider taking a gimped army tongue.gif

Too bad John, deep inside you wanted all thoses dirty cheezy SC.

As for Monaliths (or Necron SC), I will never use one in a competitive Necron list as they weaken the army. I might build a list and borrow your models biggrin.gif

At Cancon I didn't take a monolith Or a C'tan.

They aren't default choices either - indeed as Loriness mentions they weaken the build I feel.
