Subject: I miss the days of scatter bikes and D weapons.
From what I can tell from a quick glance at his post history during 7th, he essentially started with eldar and switched armies multiple times to GK, tau and marines. Considering this, it's somehow unsurprising that he doesn't feel like 7th was a bad edition.
9th's vastly improved balance no longer allows you to just buy the most recent hot stuff and start winning games despite a total lack of skills, so I guess he just misses the time when his original army - eldar - were good.
So, I honestly wish you good luck in getting an eldar codex that allows to have fun playing your army again. You'll still have to work for your wins though.
That was some serious effort to dig up some history buddy.
Just so you know. Demonic incursion Daemons were probably the most broken army in the formation age (next to ynnari ofc). Coming out near the end - it didn't last long...Index 40k was right around the corner. I don't expect you to know that considering you didn't even know orks got formations in 7th edition (they got several).
You really don't have any standing when it comes to balance. You are wrong on the Orks currently. Wrong on future topics, and pretty much wrong when it came to balance the past.

https://www.40kstats.com/faction-breakdown-report LOL. The stats speak for themselves.
Sorry to break it to you. Daemons are currently really strong right now too. Let me guess - you think gladius was the strongest formation...LOL.
Right the stats of 8th edition and up you tossed at me. What exactly was the point of this breakdown report that doesn't represent 7th that we were talking about?
