Great review lads. Good listen to whilst painting my Knights

[@RiftForgeStudio]

Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed it 🤙🏻

Im really sad about the Hierach and the Behemoth. But I am very exited to play with my self built army against some space marines. And Khabanda is a joy.

I’m happy to finally have the rules, they aren’t awful but definitely sad to see them being very one dimensional. It’s very much an army of “take this or you’re an idiot” but the idea of having big monsters with a 100 little demons running around again is always a fun thought! The only thing I personally miss for my army is the fact that the lesser demons are mostly useless now, would’ve loved to give them 3+ saves, rage and a better weapon or something but I’ll survive!

[@RiftForgeStudio]

Lessers really got the sharp end of the changes. They’re not good at all. I’m hoping it all gets adapted as we move forward but if not, so be it. I’ve played a couple of games with the new rules and it’s perfectly playable, it’s just not what it was and not what people weee expecting, so that will inevitably lead to disappointment.

I've got a large creeping scourge force on the original 1.0 bases, I'll keep them on the bases, at least they are not as OP as they were 😅

[@davidpenney2392]

As for the Greater Daemon Beast they really are a distraction

[@RiftForgeStudio]

They are, but not a great one really :)

Lovely to have some rules. But sad that it’s very limited compared to first Ed. I think the character issue is a problem. I hate that a huge deamon can be challenged by a tactical Sargent and then can kill one guy only. There needs to remove character or add something that says they don’t have to accept the challenge and still fight normally. Swarms are nice choices to hold objectives as cheap and less models makes them hard to target. I’m sad the two heavy support monsters are just not great for their points and and arnt good against tanks. And no shrikes or flying brutes is a shame for the conversions that were done in first Ed. I’m looking forward to finally using my monsters again

[@RiftForgeStudio]

Yeah the two big guys aren’t great. You can give the Behemoth wings though… so it can sort of replace the Shrike, albeit at a good chunk of points! 😁 Characters being challenged out is a pain I agree, especially with Fearless or Stubborn units. I’m going to play more games asap and get more data!
