Uh... at 5 to a stand, they'd be 600 pts; much more reasonable. Angron then
comes out to being 310 pts., if you assume the fight was about even. That
would make him about the power level of a moderately sized War Engine --
which some people have already recommended. If you consider that he would
probably have a save like a Dominatrix, he could probably have otherwise
quite similar stats to a Lord of Battles or something.
