*Three* Overlord companies?!? In just 3000 points? Oy, man, did you
agree to pick cheezy forces or something? I don't think I've ever
fielded the company in less than 4000 points, much less ever fielded
*more* than one....

I can believe it... that's what, 54 dice at 75 cm, 5+ to hit? Even *I*
could probably strip off 12 void shields with that. (I'm famous for my
poor dice rolls whenever I have a concentration of firepower.)

<grin> That *is* a rather large experience boost, there....
