Thanks!! I've been playing Khorne as of late, but I've dabbled with different armies in the past.

It does not. That is referring to the keyword <Tzaangor>, which neither the Enlightened nor the Skyfires have.
-
If you need an example: Evocators. They are worded the exact same way as the Horrors are.

This is very important to consider. Before I jumped into the Skyfire train a couple of years ago I used Flamers because they were awesome in fantasy and probably my favorite unit of all of Fantasy period. However, Tzeentch Daemons are extremely squishy, and will fold to most things coming at them. They just don't stick around as long as Enlightened/Skyfires, and said units don't have to be in any particular coven to really amplify what they are already good at.

I agree about Horrors. I think that is going to be very annoying. Enlightened and Skyfires aren't losing variety by not having the Daemon keyword. That keyword was part of the reason why a lot of other units were held back. They just got buffs from every source under the sun compared to the others. I'm not sure how that provides variety when that was the only unit being looked at for the longest time for DoT as a faction.

It isn't so much that it breaks the game, but it creates a lot of bad play experiences. You're right, you could just do Fold Reality on other units...but before this book, where was the value in doing so? All those units you listed were never considered for competitive play in the previous battletome, and the Daemon keyword carries a lot of weight nowadays. Skyfires and then Enlightened were just amazingly efficient units that with that Keyword, could just mitigate a lot of their flaws. Fold Reality regenerates the unit. Locus makes them harder to kill in combat. There's a multitude of ways of getting -1 to hit in shooting between some spells and Eternal Conflagration. Taking it away let's them keep certain avenues of mechanics open for the army overall without it getting out of hand and creating a one dimensional archetype.

I'm also curious about this "onion formation".

Hello everyone!! Finally finding myself getting back into the forums to engage with the wider community. I've been in the hobby since late 6th Edition of Warhammer Fantasy, starting out playing with my father who introduced me to it all! Looking forward to talking with everyone!!
