  2. You say that we have an advantage because we know things before other people and that side of the equation is indeed true. However what you are maybe not aware of or do not fully appreciate the impact of is the disadvantages that we also incur, which I will list below.

    1: Having to have in our heads multiple iterations of books with only a broad idea of release schedules, this means when we playtest we are a period of time in the future but also factoring in the current meta and books we have completed. But when we are playing normal games we have to adjust to a different environment.

    2: Having to essentially abandon playing ‘practice’ games for tournaments as certainly for me the vast majority of my non tournament games are playtest ones

    3: Not being able to share what we are painting / playing with / thinking about as people infer things from it.

    Having said all of that we all love being playtesters but it is hugely impactful on our personal hobby and several people have stepped down / taken a break from it for that very reason.

    GW are not going to reveal the process and nor should they - it is their intellectual property in exactly the same way that Pepsi don’t reveal how they develop and test new products, am not really sure why people think they should - the only thing I will say is that we don’t get paid to do it and do it for the good of the hobby and our love of it.

    Interesting that you play god seekers with the hellstriders that don’t really want to charge stuff since they can pile from 6. You don’t find that the enhanced CP generation from Invaders is necessary?

    To be honest 99% of the time I forget about rolling for it - don’t think I rolled for it once at Blackout or Facehammer ;)

  4. Reapers of vengeance khorne with either multi-thirsters or Archaon is not that hard to beat.

    You need to take advantage of your longer threat range, ignore Archaon or feed him one keeper at a time or even better get him to fight Shalaxi with her spell on as unless he slayers of kings her she will tank him.

    Also screen what you can - most importantly both of those lists have very squishy other elements that you can easily kill and win on objectives.

    For the record so you don’t think this is theoretical hyperbole I just came second at facehammer and played and beat the following 

    skaven with 9 stormfiends

    reapers with 4 thirsters

    skaven with 9 stormfiends

    reapers with archaon

    120 plague monks
