Which figure has the best relationship between cost, in points and effect? I mean, lower points and good numbers?
In my opinion is the Blade Golem.

Amotep Gunners...

12" range
10 attack
3 damage
all for 24 points.

...with runab0ut. the gunner is still hard core and even with all the great new figs coming out I still like to put him in my armies with a couple of ESA's. With F/L he can break up formations really quickly.

Support piece: At this time, I'd say the Technomancer. It's nothing by itself, though.

Piece that requires another piece (without being support): KI Charger. Easily the most min/maxed figure in the game. If I was designing a figure to abuse the point cost system, this would probably be it. None of the abilities of it are overpowering. It's the combination of stats & abilities and their locations on the figure that makes it so powerful.


Stand alone piece: Right now I don't think there is a single one. I think a case could be made for the Amotep Gunner (as mentioned a couple of times), the Solonavi Striker & the Amazon Draconum.

Oops :)

I choose MAGUS.

Pyre spirit and Zombie Baron

I rather go for the crystal protector.
it is quite underestimated but it is quite a piece that is very good.

considering that it is
01. a very viable harassment piece
02. has flight
03. it is a moving terrain
04. has healing

all for a very low point cost.

The Host
no doubt about it

The blade golem is great for its point value!

Most of the very popular figuers are very efficient.

To the Blade Golem and the Amotep Gunner, I'd add the * Skeleton, the Shade and the E@A. I too like the OST and the Crystal Protector )I try to use it also to heal a demoralized Healer: *gasps* and *sobs* from the opponent when I can pull it out!)

But I'd add to the list the Nightblade (the ***, at 16 points, takes 6 clicks of damage to get demoralized: will survive almost any single attack...) and the Taskmaster (has 4 clicks of Command in a playable fig for 32 points: beats the Brass Commander in my books).

I think Autumn has to be up there. I see her in so many armies since for only one extra point over a techno u get healing, or for a few extra points you get a levitator that can push and keep the ability.

OST
Magus
Crystal Protector

i am not too sure about this one after the rules changes and all but i guess the ram warrior (in today's gaming scene) is one of them...
