Still not a tournament player, but I’m considering keeping my World Eaters as my ‘Tournament’ army, primarily because they can be so straightforward to play.

As I’ve been watching reviews of the new codex, I’m seeing lots of people seeming to indicate that new WE armies are going to start with one unit of Jakhals and one of Goremongers.

Is that the case for you folks? If so, are you bringing one unit of each, and how big of a unit of Jakhals are you bringing?

Also curious to hear your reasoning on what you’ve decided.

I don't see my own WE list changing in regards to my use of Jakels.
I only have 1 10x squad - whose sole purpose for being in my list is/was because I didn't have enough pts left for another squad of 5 Beserkers.
This is not to say I haven't used them effectively, just that they are not my 1st, or 2nd, or even 3rd choice of units. Just what fit the pts i had left.

As for the new Goremongers? I doubt I'll add them. Unless they're cheaper than the Jaks. Or if other things drop in price enough to include them.(doubtfull).
