Good thing the fixed the massive exploit with faction terrain, and allowed it to be placed with an entirely reasonable restriction. The rules for 'normal' terrain placement are still exploitable with the unique slot but beyond that are pretty functional now IMO.

HUGE nerf to Gristlgore IMO. Only being relevant on the charge makes alpha striking a glaring weakness. No change to Slaanesh summoning means we are in a bumpy year. Skaven points are still bonkers good value .. just not insanely wtf good value. Warp lightning vortex change (13" cast range) makes the spell good.. and not army destroying good. Still an auto include.

It means you have to skitterleap THEN cast it, which is appropriate. I was surprised it had such a massive range originally. Gristlegore got brought into line, which is great. It just leaves feast day and blisterskin before the army is brought into 'merely OP' territory.

I just realized how bad slaanesh summoning is against you :*(

I'm a little sad that my Skaven List got an over-all buff. More points to play with for an extra little something, and the nerf to Warp Lightning Vortex isn't so horrible, it's just not a first-turn army-wrecker any more, and the Greyseer points nerf isn't so bad.

I was hoping for things to become harder in my list building, and it looks like the Skaven I want to play are still benched for local play...

I'm an FEC player (well, when I play AOS) and I'll admit the nerfs were sorely needed.

That’s been my experience as a Slaanesh player as well; I had over 90 DPs by the end of my third turn (my opponent only got two turns, was playing Fyreslayers).
