Does the list have enough beat down units? 3K and only 3 strong units: Warriors, Knights, Trolls. Your list should have at least 1, if not 2 more.

Do Spawn have a role in 8th? Used to love these guys in 7th - but their ability to move sideways is just not important any more.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/323075/2033840.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/323075/2033840.page GMT 3000 Warriors of Tzeentch
Forgot about that whole 'no duplication' thing. Not a huge fan of 8th edition...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/323075/2034045.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/323075/2034045.page GMT 3000 Warriors of Tzeentch
Good selection of units, glad to not see a wall of wardy plate like most chaos. On the spawn, I'm looking to run 3 (!) in my WoT Redux, partially to see what they do, but also because 1) they're one of the last 360 degree chargers left in the game, and 2) they're Monstrous Beasts. Ground-pounder chaos (i.e. most all of it in 8th) has a hard time running down enemy units, so hopefully jagging a spawn in alongside my warriors / trolls will mean I finally get some points.

EDIT

What's the thinking on the big chaff units? I can come up with pros and cons for taking 5 or 10 strong units, but I ultimately default to smaller for the deployment control and flexibility. Also axe horsemen are pretty decent at the old light cav roles, but with vanguard for getting axes in quicker. 6 horsemen w/ std, mus, t.axes, light armor seems to have potential IMO.

Most of the light stuff that Spawn excelled at stopping is not longer played. You can try to hold up larger units, but the increased attacks available in 8th will kill off the spawn much faster - even with the T5. The tactic of holding a unit for a flank charge is not viable any more. Flanks just don't matter- the unit is either going to be steadfast or fight just as well to the side.

Its a shame what GW did to 8th...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/323075/2034688.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/323075/2034688.page GMT 3000 Warriors of Tzeentch

I agree. I'm trying so hard to give it a chance, but I cannot stand most of the changes.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/323075/2037404.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/323075/2037404.page GMT
