Spoiler alert!!!
Battle bros can get in transports! Seems like theres no limit to how many detatchements you can have tho The way i read it though is that you can only use each book once with the exclusion of marines who can just use each chapter tactic once! This could get silly although brother corbulo will be getting another run out in the near future! Counter attack no longer requires a leadership test, furious charge is added to the characteristic so thunder hammers etc become strenth 10, characters cant join creatures (no more ovesa star) actually makes ovesa pretty useless , declare jink when targeted not after hits/wounds, no leadership test for splitfire, smash is only 1 attack, snap shots can never be precision, daemonology perils on any double exept gk for sanctic and daemons for malefic.
After my first read it seems like the majority of the changes are great and will really open up the game! The new foc is gonna make list writing VERY interesting as it seems you can use as many detatchements as you like. Theres benefits for taking the normal 1 hq and 2 troops for each detatchment but the allies 1hq anf 1 troop is not exactly a hinderance!
Not sure how this will effect competitive play as organisers could just limit players to 1 primary and 1 ally but if not itl blow the game wide open! All
I know is the imperium are gonna rock!
