[Why do you accept this mess?]

I would like to know your opinion about the state of acceptance due to specific points:

1. Prices increasing with each new release.

2. Rules bloated. It sometimes takes more than 4 books / releases to have all of the rules together.

3. Power level increasing with new releases, leaving older armies behind.

4. GW basically neglecting certain factions, wich just don't get anything new and up to date.

5. Models being locked behind paywalls, or big box sets, for a long period of time.

6. FAQ debacle.

7. Massive FOMO


Why do you accept this mess? Looking for individual opinions here.

cheers///

 

As a player since WFB 6th edition - things are better than they ever used to be. Maybe except for FOMO, but it's on you, not on them so it's easy to ignore. 

I'd welcome any better alternatives but so I have not found any.

Guys quick question, why is everyone using Rogue Idols? I See them in Kruleboyz and ironjaws lists.

I think it can be good. Costs quite a lot, but benefits greatly from Supa Sneaky and Dirty Tricks - can be deployed on the side of the enemy and tie one flank for a round or two. You can even smash faction terrain with him if you can get far enough.

Why would it be allowed? It's not in the current battletome.

Even with the 4++ artefact?

Yes

Although, I played only 4 games with them since the book came out, so I'm hoping for some average rolls in time 😉

Isnt a Wurrgog Prophet a better pick over a Killbow to get rid of big things now for BW? Or Arrowboyz just because more bodies on the table? I am trying to justify buying these units but i cant find a really good reason at the moment. 2 units of boltboys and a shaman is a decent point sink.

Prophets have shorter range, and can't move before "shooting", but are just as swingy as Killbows. My Wurrgogs usually deal 6-7 mortals before killing themselves...

Why pair of Brute Choppas instead of Jagged Gore-hackas? They have better rend and reach.

The only reliable +1 cast in the army is Rogue Idol (6" bubble, so can benefit more than 1 caster).

Remember guys that Darkkfoot's ability to ignore ward saves works against wounds and not mortal wounds.

Wardokks seem too good to be left the same, but man can dream 🙂

Sorry for double post, I have to idea how to edit my previous comment. 

One more thing I wanted to say about arrowboyz  ability in Bonegrinz (+1A). If we get this instead of additional attack for 15+ models that would allow for some MSU play with Bonesplitterz. Right now I have a big problem with only 4 reinforcement points in 2k game.

I guess my point was that GW won't provide competitive rules to an older set of models.

I'm sure Chaos Marauders and Salamanders would disagree 😉
