Getting Started: Building a United Colonies of Mankind Starter Army

Note: All prices are in pounds at MSRP.

This is designed to allow you to experience the full range of game mechanics.  For tournament play, I recommend driving the Kodiak onto the battlefield to save points!

Choose the United Colonies of Man (UCM) IF you like:

• Relatively cheap forces (anchored by a sturdy core of Main Battle Tanks and AA Tanks).
• Versatile play styles (building demolition, attrition, air) - more so than the other armies.
• Balanced Army - no significant advantages/no significant disadvantages - they are middle-of-the-road.
• Ferrum Class Drone Base - think Protoss Carrier from StarCraft!
• Air Power Variety: Archangel (dedicated interceptor); Seraphim (bomber).  Only army with two fast movers.

Assuming you got a friend to split the upcoming 2-Player Starter Set...

Here's what you will need (parentheses is the number of blisters):

1x UCM Command Cards (1) = 5
1x Kodiak (1) = 11
2x Raven-A (1) = 10.5
2x Raven-B (1) = 10
4x Wolverine (1) = 7.5
2x Archangel (1) = 11
Total = 55  +30 (half of the 2P Starter Box) = 85.

If you buy the UCM Starter Army, you get the Bear APCs for free rather than if purchased individually.
