What's your wish for the 4th ed AoS HoS battletome?
First of all, I'm sorry if this has been posted before. I couldn't find any recent post talking about this.
Second: I know that the leaks are saying we're getting another foot hero (probably mortal?).
But what are you wishes for how the army will play in general?
Personally I hope the daemons become valid again. So far Keeper of Secrets and Daemonettes are the only ones that I've added to multiple lists, but even then they feel grossly underpowered to any mortal/sybarite unit I could've spent the points on instead.
When I started playing Hedonites we were still on the 2nd Edition book, and after the 3rd edition book launched I went whole heartedly from maining Seraphon to having Hedonites as my main army. In 3rd edition it felt like almost all units had a place or purpose, and most of my lists were quite evenly split between daemons and mortals.
But now my once beloved Fiends have become dust collectors, and all those GORGEOUS models like Infernal Enrapturess or Contorted Epitome are things I just bring in my army bag to show to my opponents, before tucking them back and deploying units that are actually in my list.
Aside from daemons becoming good again I hope we get the temptation dice mechanic back as it was in 3rd edition. I liked feeling like a drug dealer when offering those dice, and each step of the depravity points table felt like sweet, sweet nectar that could really turn a losing game to a quite nasty victory.
After seeing that daemons have been included in quite a few Blades of Khorne or Maggotkin of Nurgle lists (I haven't looked into Tzeentch too much), I feel like (or maybe it's just me huffing too much hopium) a split list might be back on the table.
Also: I hope that the Shardspeaker finally gets a warscroll that is in any way good, or that she drops to, like, 80 points so that she can tag along for... vibes, or something.
