Yeah, but I want to make some serious changes to its core. Like no stompa.

Im kinda happy to see people be like 3-4 knight plus greater brass and every army will have a way to deal with it and turn it into a game not just a one sided thing.
This alone tells me 8th is on the right track.

I think that's the first really "humanoid" HQ that we have seen, sorry swarmlord, So if that's going to be a good representation of HQ's I'm really happy.
Looks like he can carry weight and help in combats by throwing him into something with a unit support but no more of this this model is literally unkillable.
Also that super hammer of Wrath on the Interceptors looks cool, 3-6 those guys charging doing 1-2 mortal wounds before anything else happens!! not too bad when you think that just picked up a terminator.

Lol. I’ll never run it because well… Khorne. He and Slannesh just don’t do it for me despite really wanting to have a Chaos Knight from each of the major 4 pantheons as I think they’d be really amazing to convert and paint up.

I know, it's a little much, but I'm worth it! |

This alone tells me 8th is on the right track. This. Like the Knight article said, games against 5 LoW's in 7th tended to be over in half an hour one way or another - either they had a wall of anti-vehicle weapons and the big guys got mooked, or they didn't, and the little guys just went to ground and crossed their fingers until the game was over. Sure Bolters aren't a great bet to hurt a Knight, but it FEELS way better as a player to be taking those shots than shrugging and basically giving up on actually getting to PLAY. The whole focus of everything I'm reading seems to be on forcing player engagement, removing Null Deploy and unkillable units. I've long said that I'll play against ANYTHING so long as it feels like I'm actually playing against it, and not just a bunch of targets for it to mulch, and it seems like 8th is going to do that! |

This just in... Auxiliary formations "aka the old school pick and play min/max" is still available but for each auxiliary detachment you LOSE a command point.
