Subject: Re:Regarding the Saltiness of CSM players

Using exageration as a rethoric tool though is just also valid.
And from some of the responses here we can pretty much assume that Tony here has a bit of an iffy grasp at best in regards to CSM dexes.
And to top it off he just outright thinks invalidating someones opinion on a generalisation about a subject he has not really a clue about is considered quite a bit more rude.

Regardless, i think we can assume GW will not do anything to the traits of mainline CSM, maybee DG or TS get lucky. Maybee. I somehow doubt it.
More my fault for trying to do all my posting at work, I'm forced to go by memory as my boss will probably frown upon me dredging through codices at work. I could try to go through my pdf of the 3.5, which is the only copy I have, but you can't thumb drive at work anymore because of their heavy anti-corporate espionage software. Fun fact: a military CAC reader set off security alerts and I had to explain why I was accessing Army email and pay stubs at work. THAT level.
At any rate, once I get it printed back off or email the pdf here at work so I can line by line, I'll go into more detail and leave less to chance.
The post by Strg Alt above this one however kind of alludes to the same level of customization that made the codex imbalance, which is just one of my gripes about it. More on this when I can drop page numbers and paragraphs.
In regards to customisation
You see, gw is capable of actually making balanced,ultra customizable armies, atleast Allan bleigh was, cue ia 13.
But then again bleigh also put a pricetag on them....
Gw itself often beeing Bad at rules and constantly beeing forgiven by most of the community is what Imo is the main issue.
Also, if we take a look at the build your trait options so far, beyond sm, they are actually competently handled somewhat.
If you read the Dark Eldar custom traits (and in fact a majority of the Eldar ones) you know that's simply not true. I hadn't looked at the Tyranid ones though.
