Yes! MANz having medisquig cages built into their armour! Hillarious!

Not being able to assault from a stationary vehicle or from table edge reserves.

Armour save modifiers to ap system. If they brought that back with the new edition it would really help the game out. Suddenly bolters would be worth a damn and terminator armour with 3+ on 2D6 actually feels powerful!

Remember when blast templates halved their strength if they didnt direct hit on vehicles or when you had to mentally try and calculate range because shooting went like, "Pick a target, now measure to see if you are within range"

I can't remember how they worked in older editions, but something about the current blast rules never sat right with me.

Yeah, an artillery she'll has a lethal radius of 75 meters, meanwhile, in game, you'll struggle to hit 3 guys that are spaced out

Orks:

- Having Cybork turn from a 5++ for 5pts per model to a 6+ FNP
- Ramshackle TTuTT I had a list that was praying to drive into the enemy and blow up. Give me back my fun!!


Imperial Guard:

- Give me back all the special characters...
- Give me back send in the next waaave!~

Rules in general:

- I actually liked that fact that there was no measure before shoot. Gave the game more of a risk factore.
- I also liked how charging use to be 6inches if I remember correctly. I know weird sense my orks rely on the new way so much, but I prefer having the ability to set up a plan and know you wont fail because jo blow tripped on a rock.
- Charging from outflank


Conclusion:

If its not broken GW then don't fix it. I believe the rules and units i'v named off were never really broken. Send in the next wave was just a lot of conscripts that you can stop by killing the Special officer. Ramshackle is a wild card which everyone thought was fun at my stores. Taking away the orks only way to have a 5++ in melee is just cold in a world full of armor shredding melee weapons.

I guess I just miss a lot of the older things that I played with when I started this hobby. A time when my orks were a fun silly army that one a game here and there.
