[QUOTE="S'mon, post: 5625425, member: 463"] My draft of a military platoon of spearmen as an heroic tier Solo swarm: Military Platoon Level 7 Solo Soldier Gargantuan natural humanoid XP 1,500 Initiative +6 Senses Perception +3 Swarm Attack aura 2; the platoon makes a melee basic attack as a free action against any enemy that starts or ends its turn within the aura. HP 300; Bloodied 150 AC 23; Fortitude 20; Reflex 19; Will 18 Resist half damage from melee and ranged attacks; Vulnerable 10 damage from close and area attacks Saving Throws +5 Speed 4 Action Points 2 m Swarm of Spears (standard; at-will) +12 vs AC; (edit) 1d8+7 damage M Riposte of Spears immediate reaction; when the platoon is attacked, they attack the attacker with a melee basic attack Hard to Move The Platoon cannot be Pushed/Pulled/Slid or knocked Prone by Melee or Ranged attacks, and can Save to avoid being Pushed/Pulled/Slid or knocked Prone by Blast & Burst attacks that do not cover the entire 4x4 area of the Platoon. Last Survivors (immediate reaction; encounter) When the Platoon is reduced to 0 hp, 2d4 level 5 soldier Minions armed with sword & shield appear within the 4x4 space formerly occupied by the platoon, and act immediately.
