    So question, considering you are aware of the overall points increases and rebalancing going on, why did you guys use points value as a metric to see whether to skip over a profile or not? You guys missed plenty of changes.

      @TTAlliance which is fair, but points cost is a bad metric, go take a closer look at Thorin's company and Champions of Erebor... Those are some huge changes that I was hoping for thoughts on.

    Does anyone know if the old Helm Hammerhand model from the war in Rohan book still has a profile or is it just new old man Helm? And if he is in, can he be used alongside the new Rohan characters as he originally couldn’t be taken alongside any other named characters.

  • @darksnap89
    @darksnap89 4 дні тому

    tbh is sadness me. So ultimately they didn't balance anything, they only removed models, reasons for having customizations on weapons (no special strikes instead of balacing), no customizations on armies. no real magic balancing either. bigger cost on models (lesser models on board). So they want 50-60$ pr book for what? almost no new rules or balancing, a lot of removevel from the old books and the only thing that is better is the priority role. why should I pay 60$ for one rule that is changed for the better? maybe 3 if you count in monster (but trolls got worse on two handed) and warbeasts. and a lot of rules got worse. Who whas it that said they have full faith in the person making the new ruleset? because I dont see anything other then money grap.
