    Yea I guess we still have the regular version no matter what which is cool. But I think the whole "special permission" clause rules out bringing the familiars in a competitive matched play environment.

    This ends up being a pretty crucial change since this removes the inherent +1 to cast. So outside of the LOC or Arcane Sacrifice buffs, you are now relying on a natural dice roll to get infernal flames off.

    So I just got my copy of GHB 2019, but  I am not seeing Gaunt Summoner with Chaos Familiars in either Tzeentch or Everchosen section.  Additionally there is a sentence in the pitched battle profiles booklet that says "Only units that are included in this book, or that have a later publication date, can be used in a Pitched Battle game without your opponent's consent"

    So does that mean the Chaos Familiar version of the model is no longer fieldable in matched play?

    Ouch, Bridge, Horrorghast and Engine seem unplayable at those costs. 

    Shards feels like the big winner. 

    We see a ton of Cogs and a fair bit of Spellportals in lists,  so I'm beginning to think that 60pts is the magic number.  Seems appropriate since most of the cheapest units game-wide start around 70-80pts. 

    Bridge is pretty much dead on arrival. Soul Seeker fills the roll better and cheaper.  Engine is a cool concept but 100pts is laughable. Why not just pay 100pts for two guaranteed CP and a roll on the Triumph table?

    I may have to pass on this set. Not sure Shards and Soulseeker alone are worth the cost of a start collecting box. :/
