Lowest Model Count Army...1850 points
For some idiot reason, I was thinking about 40K and wanted to see if someone could come up with a legal army with the fewest models at 1850. Which would it be?
Big Bugs?
Daemonhunters?
Chaos?
The smallest list I could make was....Orks at 13 models:
13 Models, Orks.
Big Mek, KFF, All wargear except Oilers
Big Mek, SAG, All wargear except Oilers
5x Nob Bikers, 5 x powerklaw, painboy, cybork bodies
Deff Dread, 2x Kustom Mega Blasters, armor, grots (troops)
Deff Dread, 2x Kustom Mega Blasters, armor, grots (troops)
Battle Wagon, 4 rokkit, lobba, killkannon, all wargear x 3

What about Deathwing? An all termie army would probably come in rather tiny.

Most likely, but not less then 13...the smallest Daemonhunter army I could come up with had 16 models, or so, in it (been a while since I did it). Deathwing (especially with the new codex) will most likely come in at about 20 models.

It's gotta be Nids with the Bugzilla list.
Ask Max. You can take like 2 Hive Tyrants and 6 Carnifex and like 2 ripper swarm bases or something crazy like that.
Also Ray, does that ork list comply with composition requirements? What are your troops? The Bikes? but they're only 1 squad.

Not my post, but...
The post states that the deff dreds are troops which IIRC are allowed if you take a Big Mek as your HQ, i would have to look it up though.
Re: Lowest Model Count Army...1850 points
He's right, if you take a Big Mek as an HQ you can take a Deff Dread as a troop choice.
So yes, it is possible to have an entire orc armored army. GW is that stupid.

Re: Lowest Model Count Army...1850 points
Well if your following fluff-wise then why can't I field an armored company list? I mean it's perfectly within my fluff
I mean lets be realistic here, you wanna field your armored whatever-the-f it is, take to apoc cause thats where it belongs.

Re: Lowest Model Count Army...1850 points
Now, the opposite question. Which army can bring the most models to a knife-fight?
Now, I *think* orks outdo IG now that they're 6pts a piece. Unless gaunts are cheaper I can't think of a more number-licious army.
Edit: doing the Ork numbers, 6 units of 30 orks before nobs and upgrades is under 1100 points for 180 models (if we're still talking 1850).
I think your opponent would see you trying to move that and just concede

Re: Lowest Model Count Army...1850 points
Conscripts are 4 pts a pop. Each troop choice of conscripts is up to 50 men.
I'm going to do some math.
