this resource can only target one unit at a time with them being in FA you can only attack effectively 3 at a time while losing out on everything else in FA on top of that they have **** armor that ANY basic troop can shoot through. making this army and AP4 fest was pointless in the long term so we can kill anything not power armor insanely quick and with tons of shots .... that was never hard even before all the AP4 now its just crazy how fast we can now kill none power armor. without pathfiders are troops things will be worse having to spend as much if not more to give your pathfinders enough to live to be used more than once.
with more shots great! i like that makes it easyer to trim marines down with plasma no complaint there is what we lose for what we gain. Broadsides no longer are the end all against tanks, they also are no longer jump infantry so no more mobile shooting with them unless you spend their 1 upgrade on it assuming its still an option. over costed under armored flyers our bomber is just a 5 5 blast template not great consodering a good rapidfire has a chance to bring it down. the fighter has a chance to be good IF seekers do not need makers to fire anymore so we become a one pump chump army either seekers hit and we live to spray you down or they dont and we die speeding way to many points.
crisis being cheaper and getting MT is a hugh boost ONLY IF the weapons either got cheaper or stayed the same once again battle suits FTW
riptide - underwhelmed best way to put it great gun wont live long enough to use it most imp faction will just take more Laz and grind you down.
over all more volume less mobility the over all point reductions to what people use in their lists will be what helps people more than anything in the long run heres for HOPING everyone was wrong and pathfinders are troops! either way MORE BATTLESUITS!!!
