"ok, this guy is technically cadian, even though he looks like steel legion"
"ok and this command squad is NOT cadian even though they look the same"
"these basic troopers are obviously not cadians, because they are steel legion"
"my more advanced commander, she's cadian again"
It's dumb and a drag and I don't want to have to counts-as models that I bought from Games Workshop as other newer models

Fixture of Dakka

For some players, the flavour is as important as the rules selection, so having a CADIAN model lead a Tallarn or Steel Legion force is a problem.
This shouldn't be tricky for people to grasp.

Confirmation of why no-one should listen to Kanluwen when it comes to the IG - he doesn't want the IG, he want's Kan's New Model Army...

I reiterate: 'Counts As' is never the answer.
I don't give a damn about Stratagems. What I do care about is being told that the main level commander in the new Guard 'Dex is Cadian only. What if I don't play Cadians? What if I've never played Cadians? What I've had other regiments my entire life, or my own homebrew, and don't like that suddenly there are specific "Cadian" units in the book?
Did you ever think of that? For even a second? No. Of course you didn't. You just came in for a cheap jab.
Forget Guard. Pretend it's Marines, and the new Space Marine Codex comes with a new Primaris Lieutenant Commander, and a nice new kit with lots of options, but his keyword, for some reason is, "White Scars". I mean... having access to 2 Stratagems a non- White Scars Lieitenant-Commander wouldn't have is too much to bear, right?
Or an Eldar Craftworld.
Of Chaos Legion.
Or Hive Fleet.
Or Ork Klan.
Or whatever bull gak Tau have.
Or...
Or...
Or...
' Counts As' is a terrible excuse for when things get taken away and I am sick and tired of being told to 'just counts as' whenever something is taken away or changed.
I very much doubt you didn't know that's what I was saying. 
Checks sig...
Yeah, can sadly not agree more than this.

GW:"Space marines got too many options to balance, therefore we decided to legends HH units."
Players: "why?!? Now we finally got decent plastic kits and you cut them?"
Chaos marines players: "Since when are Daemonengines 30k models and why do i have NO droppods now?"
GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!"
Chaos players: Guess i stop playing or go to HH. |

Boom! Leman Russ Commander

So what are the rumors on the next Guard codex?

.Only a fool believes there is such a thing as price gouging. Things have value determined by the creator or merchant. If you don't agree with that value, you are free not to purchase. |
