Anyone else feel like they’ve been kicked in the 🥜
I’ve probably played about 20 games + of 11th Edition and I feel pretty demoralized with Guard. A lot of our Data sheets went up. Battle shocks are breaking our back. Having to pay either 1 cp or 125 points to ignore cover is breaking our back.
A lot of the layouts are freaking nuts and have tons of open spaces where we can’t deploy everything safely and I’m just losing big pieces turn 1 because a Knight towed into the middle objective and ignores cover and just unloads into my deployment zone.
I’ve had multiple layouts as well Turn 2 Ghaz is in my freaking home objective!?
A lot of armies can just do whatever the hell they want, fall back shoot and charge, advance shoot and charge, ignore cover, ignore this ignore that AP 3-5. I full hit reroll this I full wound reroll that, I get +1 to hit and wound and ignore modifiers. Like Jesus Christ dude I reroll 1’s to hit and can get lethals or ignore cover for a cp….
I feel like GW thinks Guards supposed to be an Elite army all of a sudden and to be fair their are some insane data sheets in guard, example: Dorn’s, Scions, Bullgryn, Krieg engs, Kasrkin, tranports.
All my tanks are 150+ and they just get picked up by 100 point units not even breaking a sweat.
Like it doesn’t feel good when a lot of the armies in the game can just be like ok take a battleshock test at -1 and now my 290 model fails on an 8. I can’t even attempt to order it. I can’t have Yarrick next to it to give reroll battle shocks and now I’m hitting on 5’s.
Shadow in the warp into Guard means mostly likely my whole army will hit on 4’s and 5’s yet my points went up??
Please tell me I’m not alone in feeling like we’ve gotten shafted. Like Duty and Honor is like legitimately mostly useless into battleshock tests.
Guard feels really rough to play Rn and I’m worried GW just likes popping on us. Like Ctan still have AP 5 wtf is that!?!?
Make Guard Great Again!
