    Why cant more units just be battleline period? It would give all the armies much more flexibility. I think only Dark Elf units have battleline from the old elf units (in the new books.) 

    I realise legacy units do have battleline but they are out of print. 

    Also how can spireguard be 200 when they arent much better than Freeguild Guard with milita weapons?

    Agreed  more generic battle line would be great

    None of the start collecting boxes have them, correct?  Nor do the previous big boxed armies (e.g. King Vlagorescu's Host, Virulent Horde) so I don't see why these would either.  I mean, to be fair these are coming out post-General's Handbook while the others were IIRC before it was released, so there's a chance but it seems like GW wants Open Play to be the normal style and Matched Play should be specifically for events.

    Agreed,  although maybe all of these will have points in GHB v.2

    Is anyone really surprised it seems obvious that matched play is an afterthought and intended only for the leagues and tournaments not for pickup games like everybody jumped on using it for.
     

    it seems pretty obvious that only the basic stuff and new models get points and the other battalions are meant for default play, you know the one everyone hates because "muh points"

    To be honest though I fully expect a ton of complaining on the AOS Facebook group and then GW puts out points for them.  Similarly to how they were pressured into putting the Custodes and Sisters of Silence from Burning of Prospero into a formation so people didn't have to use Unbound in 40k.

    I think you'll only see points for these if they are free battalions on the website and/or app.
