  1. Epic Vlad's tier list is probably the easiest to build and almost comes together without thinking. Why wouldn't you want IFP, cheaper Uhlans, Great Bears, Drago, and Markov?

    My 35 pt list is going to be this:

    eVlad +5
    Drago - 8
    3 Uhlans - 6
    3 Uhlans - 6
    Full IFP unit + UA - 10
    Great Bears - 5
    Markov - 4
    War Dog - 1
    Total: 40

    The best benefit is tier 1 reducing Uhlans down a pt. Taking a 3 man unit for 6 pts is the same cost per model as taking a 5 man unit for 10. Thus taking 2 more manuevarable units of 3 makes a lot of sense. Tier 4 and Tier 2 I believe combine to give Great Bears AD range of 18". Tier 3 allows you to put Hands of Fate on a target that's not within 6 inches (spell range) such as ADing Great Bears.

    Shooting armies are not going to like eVlad. Uhlans and Great Bears coming at them with high speed, further deployment, and AD. Iron Fang Pikeman would deploy at 12 inches, move up 6 inches first turn, and then could do their run, reform, and reach thing for 20 inches. That's 38 inches total which is exactly 10 inches from the board edge; this corresponds to the front of the opponent's deployment zone meaning you can easily tie up opponent's army even if they don't move at you. Crazy!
