This year's Megabattle should have a bit of a different feel than in previous years.  All of the elements Megabattles past will be there, along with some new ones.

Derek will be making a post about when Megabattle 2012 will be shortly.

I'm kind of up in the air about what to field.  I have been fielding Necrons since the beginning, and they do have a new codex.  But I am liking the Eldar.  I may actually switch sides this year.

The Red Scorpions have contacted the Forges on Mars to get additional support.

So, I'm saying that I'll be there with awesome Space Marines...again.

Hmm,
       awful lot of those evil disorder types looking to move to the forces of Order this year. I wonder why?
Of course we'll have to impliment a screening process, just to make sure you're clean and fit for duty of course ;)

I was actally hoping for a points increase. I am trying to field the salamanders 1st company. Which means loranus and I need to argue. I mean...100 mastercrafted thunderhammers? What titan?

It does seem like the disorder side is thinning out.  Here's a suggestion; since the majority of the order side is imperial, why not make it Imperials vs "everyone else" that would allow Tau and Eldar to fil out the "anti-imperial" side (and ican play Eldar and not switch sides).  And since the plan is to have multiple tables then factions that shouldnt be fielded together can just be on different tables.  They can represent different theaters of imperial expansion.

I like this idea a lot, but I think Paul and Chase have been working on something for the better part of the past couple of months already.  If it's on par with what Ron's saying, then great.  If not, then I think this would be a great idea for Megabattle 2013.

Murph, you can still bring the Space Marine 1st Company Formation with 4K points.  You just can't have more than 70 Terminators.

I like it.

Imperial forces vs Xenos. Simple enough sure.

And Xenos is still gettin' stomped. :|

Well, all except for Ron's Table Corner of Mastery.
