Yup. To all knight/monster/vehicle heavy armies; get ready to watch your everything get turned into scattered gibs. Though daemons are also in trouble.

Definitely annoying for the FSE fans out there. They lost quite a few things. But at least they still get 2 commanders?
My money is on them getting the supplement when (if) Tau makes an appearance in the warzone this edition.
None of that for me though. I always bring my ethereal.

Although I like a lot of the changes, to drones in particular, there's one thing I definitely dislike.
Spending CP to deploy drones from a vehicle is super lame. I gave a begrudging "fine", when I read that they are auto destroyed along with the vehicle, but that extra kicker is a bit harsh. 10 points for smart missiles seems to be a much easier choice now.

I almost always ran one devilfish, even when there wasn't a lot of reason to, just because I always loved mechanized infantry.
Looks like it's finally time to strip and give that tlc to the couple of cheap rescues I picked up a while back.
Now my only regret is that I kept putting off buying those extra broadsides I had my eye on.

You know, either/or really, lol. You could make this Dy'leth and they would all get a 4++ armour since they get +1 on top of cover and always count as being in cover unless engaged, and they would get Mont'ka or Kay'uon for move and shoot or fall back and shoot. I think it would still do poorly but that would be a lot of stuff for an army to get through after you scout move 120 bodies. This does feel like the good making of a secret santa list, at 1000-1500 pts and a more friendly environment the kroot could be cooking. |

Army of Renown: Kroot Mercenaries GW, you know you want to. Honestly I would love to see this! my dream is : - double the max size of kroot units ex. Kroot to 10-40 ( rather than 10-20) - Frenzied "if a kroot unit kills a model in melee they gain 5+++ OR +1 attack until the end of their next fight phase", so you need to actually fight to get the bonus if you shoot or hold them back, no frenzied - Elite of Pech +2 ppm " this Kroot has a 4+ armour save New models HQ "Mercenary Master Anghkor prok" Fast "knarloc riders" - new better non-forgeworld version Heavy " Greater Knarloc" - Monsters that can form units 1-3 ,also non FW model version Boom done. Then they can have the 2nd one be the FSE that I know I would also really like to see |
