No more buying blind...
Is there a way to see the point cost of each Eden fighter?
there are no factionbooks or anything. So i have to order my minis just for the looks and then realise there is no way they will fit in a 100 points.
And yes i know that a starter includes a playable force and the cards.
But i have a few costumers that want to play different characters and getting just everything from a faction is not an option.

RE: No more buying blind...
I just wish to stress the usefulness of this list. It is an extremely handy reference that allows a new player to get an idea of a whole faction very nicely. Huge, huge thanks Berf! And please keep updating this list when new releases come available.
