    Hi guys,

    I want to start with Varuna. I already have the Operation Icestorm box. Is it usefull besides the Fusiliers?

    What do I need? I guess the Varuna starter makes sense, where to go from there? Thinking about 300pts

    Thanks for your help upfront.

    Greetings

    The ORC from Ice storm is a good general proxy, and the Akalis can be an Echo Bravo.

    That said, you'll want both Zulu Cobra blisters, the Echo Bravo blister, probably Patsy Garnett, and a Dronbot box wouldn't go amiss. Trauma Doc and a Palbot see a lot of use for me. If you're dedicated, look for more rifle Fusiliers and some Libertos as Helots.

    I love using the Orc as a proxy in general. Until I get my Beyond Icestorm Swiss Guard, the Orc is an excellent Swiss Guard HMG.

    Thanks for the list of Varuna recommendations, by the way. I'm considering getting into them if NCA ever stops being as appealing, so this is handy info.

    That's actually the best CB option I see.

    Other things in general you will need to get is some remotes (a few boxes of the S3 remotes and the bulleteer). You'll need the Machinists and Trauma-Doc but if you are not a fan of the current box, I suggest a proxy of some sorts (I found the Dactyls to be good stand-ins).
