    So I've tried to calculate this but my little brain doesn't know where to begin.

    I'm trying to decide whether it would be better to have:

    A. One unit of 30 Saurus Warriors and a Sunblood

    or

    B. Three units of 10 Saurus Warriors and a Sunblood in the Sunclaw Starhost

    Obviously I know it would be better to take more saurus warriors, but I don't have any yet :hilarious:! I'm just wondering if these are good options to take into battle. It's also one of the cheapest ways to get all our battlelines into battle in a battalion at 500pts for the Sunclaw.

    EDIT: I'm an idiot and made the title wrong, I definitely mean the Sunclaw Starhost!

    Hmmm, I dunno. I think the benefits of the Starhost are better. Plus with three units your army is significantly more mobile.

    Thank you. You're right, very mobile. It also gives you another relic in your army.

    It gives much more than mobility it gives you room for mistakes, one unit of 30 needs careful deployment and timing whereas 3 units give you a margin for the unforeseen.
