January / February would be a great time to have a league... Great suggestion Matt... I look forward to what you have planned!  (was that hint subtle enough? lol) |

pages from chapter approved with point changes: http://instagram.com/p/Bb5U_nflpU2 not stoked about malanthropes jumping up 50 points. or the utter lack of GSC getting point adjustments (I mean metamorphs??? come on GW!). But most of these are in line with what I had heard was going to happen. |

eep... Zara went up 200 points! At least you're not a Tzeentch player. King Super Squawker, Supreme Chicken Of Tzeentch is up a staggering 800 pts! I mean, he was good, but that seems like a LOT. |

Not much change in the 'nids or 'crons though at least in terms of numbers of units modded.
Gauss Pylon went from 475 to 550 and the Night Shroud is 220 instead of 270 (same as Doom scythe) and I gotta say....meh? Necron flyers haven't been very popular this edition from what I've seen and the same for pylons.

Main theme seems to be "punish the hell out of superheavy things"
Fellblade is up 200 points as well, so I imagine it's sadly not coming to Clubs.

Uh, those Sicaran rumblings were no joke. Twin accelerator autocannon went from 75 to ZERO points. Now the image was cut off right above where Hellforged Sicaran would have been so I'm not trying to get too excited, however sub 200 point sicarans put them back in the viable range up from the more than useless range.
Fire Raptors down 60 points should make Voodoo happy too.

The Zara change probably means I won't be bringing the Cult of Slaanesh to the championships either. I get that the number is fluffy, but I really can't justify building a list that dumps over 25% into a single model.

Damn, like...I know I'm probably sore because it affects me directly, but of all the points that needed to be adjusted, adding 200 to a bunch of those super heavy tanks seems a bit wacky. I can get 4 Scorpius' for the points cost of that Fellblade now, and everyone knows which of those is gonna be more dangerous.
Oh, but the Baneblade line stays the exact same cost. I'm sorry, but that's bullshit. The only superheavy tank causing problems is the Stormlord, which wasn't touched...

poor scabby... and I JUST finished my Cthulhu list too... sigh... I have zero idea where I'm going to find 200 spare points in my list to still have it function. Especially since given they were daemons, it's not like I have upgrade guns etc. to pare down! oh well... back to the drawing board... but probably after January when daemons get their codex, because I'm not adjusting a list with that big unknown in the air. Every nid list I've figured out has to change though... and somehow find 50 points per malanthrope (as it doesn't appear that anything else changed point wise for them) EDIT: Found more leaked pages in the BOK compilation here: bloodofkittens.com/blog/2017/11/20/chapter-approved-leak-compilation/ |

I'm happy that some units got a much needed adjustment but cmon GW... Thousand Sons troops remaining the same point cost?
There is no reason for them to be as many points as they are. Unless their codex is going to do some amazing stuff to synergy.
I digress; I am very happy that my Sicarans and fire raptors may once again see a list.

The BoK compilation images are the exact same as those from the instagram, so still missing a few things that were cut off. I'm interested to see what that harlequin unit that got adjusted was.
