But yet, for all of the overpoweredness of the 1ksons, they are not winning any tournaments? Once guard and eldar get a firm nerfing you can talk about smite spam.
I'm all for removing soup completely. Those armies by themselves are not broken. Once you add in Knights/DW/BA or Ravagers/Skyweavers, thats when things can get silly. Show me pure CWE and Guard lists dominating the scenes and I will acquiesce to "firm nerfing" of said armies.

Err...it's not like you really get to pick exactly where all your smites go. No one is running mass exalteds.
Do TS not get to move characters around the board in order to properly position your psykers for smite targeting?

We mortals are but shadows and dust...

Yea, but that's a bit facetious.

Half the time it will be chaff unless someone is running a knight at me.

There is only so much geometry one can exploit.

Except it really IS a chaos lord, with powers.

And powers just can never match the DG having a whole slew of smaller characters each doing their own thing.
Not to mention wide variety of units doing different roles.


They don't need to be the same, obviously. heck being the same would be a bad thing.

But TS in general really lack in options.
Having a choice of "spells" is not choice, because there are very few spells, and a hell lot of casters, who compete with each other on spells.
And in bigger games, lets say you play 3k? you really CANT use that many psykers any more, as there is nothing left to cast.

That's more GW not thinking about scaling. That's why I think 3 generic tables to choose from or so would really help everything out while still being able to keep the whole "Nah you can only cast once".

I'm also of the idea that the Aspiring Sorcerers should be more buffers to their Rubrics specifically rather than pathetic Smite users. You would roll for a Warp Charge value, and then apply a benefit of your choice. I'm rambling now though.
