Orks were nerfed????? They are one of the most playable, competitive lists out there. The models and vehicles are spank....but the army is just nasty.
Youre right. Orks werent nerfed in their codex, but they were nerfed by making other codecies.
In third edition, I would hazard to say that orks had the most balanced and fun list in that edition.
I really like the eldar codex. Even with as much flak that falcons (rightfully) get, I am sure Kelly can pull out another decent xenos dex.
I personally think Xeno's dex's should be on a bit of the powerful side. They only get one dex for that race, where as humanocentric dex's such as the imperium and chaos get oodles of slick stuff.
I say, make the orks a bit over the top in a couple places. They arent bad now against most armies, but against others, its like taking a stick to a gun fight.
Hopefully Kelly will have learned from his mistakes with elite carnies and missing making the falcon balanced.
Overall, I think he is a good developer.
