THE SKY IS FALLING! Not |
Buff 1)
Harder to ground (only 1 grounding check at the end of each phase if you take a wound).
Buff 2)
Better psychic powers (here). And did i say better? I meant fucking amazing, look at biomancy - T8 S9 Feel no pain (4+) prince? Fucking yes please (and you said we cant take down tanks with 6 S9 attacks on the charge). Yes it is easier for the enemy to dispel powers (such as iron arm) but if you do manage to cast them, you are basically a Harridan (a tyranid gargant) with a 5+ invun. With a 62% chance of getting iron arm with a mastery level 3 prince this makes up for having to sit like a lemon for a turn while you change flight mode, because your prince is tanking all those hits and is gearing up to charge. Also if you do activate iron arm you will be harder to ground (as you need to take a wound to take a grounding test).
Buff 3)
Better psychic defence, with 3-6 flying monsters going around with 3-4 mastery levels each your opponent is not going to be casting powers at all.
There are probably some i missed, but even if i didnt miss anything it is still looking hopeful for the circus. While it is harder to get into assault (and takes longer - your looking at a turn 3 charge) and harder to cast powers, you opponent is not going to be casting at all and your princes have a chance to become flying chuncks of adamantium refusing to die.
I will take the good with the bad, i will adjust my tactics to fit the new addition, and will keep using my favourite army in 40k (the circus).
So dont lose hope, blot out the people screaming negativity about the new addtion, prepare for war, and a hell of a lot of fun.
Until then.
