What do you hate about them? I mean, the new books have flaws, sure, but it's not like the old books are obviously better.
I mean, then old WoC book got updated for a good reason, and it wasn't to keep the army competitive; the army was already awesome. They updated it to keep it balanced and well-rounded.

All of the currently understood "cheese" books are old books.

While there are some strong 8th edition books, none are in the same class as Lizardmen, Dark Elves, Daemons, or the (old) WoC.

Self-proclaimed evil Cat-person. Dues Ex Felines

Cato Sicarius, after force feeding Captain Ventris a copy of the Codex Astartes for having the audacity to play Deathwatch, chokes to death on his own D-baggery after finding Calgar assembling his new Eldar army.

Hold your statement for the DE and LM books. There will be much nerd rage.

No, they will have plastic black guard. They will make the S4 base, and remove the unit max.
They will be totally awesome, and cost $25 for 5 models. You'll want at least 50 of them...

lol, so they just get more power one edition after another.
I'd be happy since I own 40 of them already...

@Matt: okay, fair enough.
I do like to think that the design team is trying to make a good game, in addition to one that makes money. Ideally, of course, those would be one and the same.
