The Balance Data Slate continues to shake up the meta as generals all around the world are adjusting to the changes.

Hi all,

We kick the show off talking a bit about the Chaos Space Marine teasers provided by the Warhammer Community team before going on to chat about the ripples from the Balance Data Slate and Knight news.  Hobby Segment this week is about alternative ways to base your flying models.

No dates yet but we have some cool news about Chaos Space Marines and what we can expect if and when they ever get a new book.  It’s pretty exciting to think about what they may get but it is way too early to speculate too much.

The Balance Data Slate continues to shake up the meta as generals all around the world are adjusting to the changes. Custodes seem to still be doing just fine with a few minor tweaks to their lists, Aeldari are wrecking faces all over the place and Astra Militarum is still struggling. But is it though?  Or are people still just a bit gun shy? Did you see what I did there?

What we’ve seen so far about Knights, both flavors, has folks scratching their heads wondering if these new profiles and expanded abilities are enough to keep them on the table in what is an extremely killy/dangerous edition of Warhammer.

As we’ve seen with all the previews we need to get the book in hand to really explore all the combos and ins and outs.  It’s very difficult to know what an army is all about from a couple of short articles and a glimpse of just a couple of abilities.
