    I’ve got some math I’ve done on the subject, but it’s not in front of me at the moment. In terms of sweeping statements though, blood warriors do a small number of wounds per point spent on them. For example, a BW 30-man unit costs 520. They do about 12 wounds, and dividing that out shows their wounds caused per point, in this case 43 points per wound. To put that into perspective, a Khorgorath is 18.4 points per wound caused, and that’s with his new nerfed price. Calculating in buffs is helpful, but that tide raises all boats. It’s hard to calculate how saves allow them to fight again, and how Gorefists and fight-on-death come into play. With those caveats in play, blood warriors simply don’t measure up to virtually anyone else.

    There are pretty mathematically provable problems with Blood Warriors, but they may yet have value. From an offensive standpoint they are bizarrely weak, but defensively they’re ...okay. Middling, really. If you run them as Slaughterborn, give them the save boost and Oracular Visions, well now you’re in business as an anvil.

    Do we have battalion info yet? That plus the traits and artifacts are really all we’re missing now.

    Blood warriors not dropping is very unfortunate. I suppose the synergies may make them potent still, but they are very bad offensively compared to ...virtually anybody.

    Skullgrinder has +1 attack now, too. If the “double your attacks” relic is still in he’ll be pretty dangerous assuming his points haven’t changed. Lots of assumptions at this point.

    FYI the missing warscrolls are under the Goreblade battalion.

    I hope Blood Warrior points went down a LOT to compensate for their weirdly low damage. Also, Bloodstokers now Reroll ALL to-wound, and only affect Mortals.
