----> My thoughts also - I have some favorite ASL scenarios I'm going
to use as a starting point, and see what happens.

One question: What do list members prefer? Forces for each side
defined down to the unit (which you may not have) or broader, "x
points of IG tanks, x points of IG infantry" type guidelines? I think
a broad approach with a few speciifc units to keep the right flavor
is best, but what do people want?
        I'm just concerned that we might have a great scenario
that calls for 3 great gargants. I'm pretty into my orks, but I
don't have 3 great gargants (megas, yes, greats, no) so the
scenario would be difficult for me to use - not impossible
(ok, I've got the cut-out, my great, and my ork dreadnought
from 40K - or just use the 3 megas as greats) but less than ideal.

I'll be mulling this one over some more...
