So essentially, if I’m understanding it correctly, the game has shifted from something more akin to a tactical strategy game (maybe something like chess, or Stratego) where the decisions you made felt meaningful to something more like “I win because I have the hardest hitting, most durable units.” or at least, that’s the view the dissenting opinion holds. The game has been simplified, decisions matter less, and tactical acumen is no longer as important as a data sheet? -

I skimmed your list and instead of nickel and diming every detail, I'll just leave a few tid-bits that I've learned. First thing is that if your squad isn't maxed, it's probably not worth taking a character in them. DC are a notable exception for the OC issues, but don't go overboard with 5man+chappy units. One troubleshooting unit will do. The other notable exception is Assault Ints with captain. Whereas all other SM leaders are primarily there to buff the squad, the AI+cap combo flips this dynamic on its head as they are there to guard the captain and sergeant, so they get a pass. Next is that BA have no way to buff shooting. This is not to say that you shouldn't take shooting units, only that there are certain other detachments that simply do it better. The shooty units we have pretty much have to rely on the strength of their datasheet, because that's all they've really gotten. The last general thing is that slow melee units (movement less than 8") without a delivery system will regularly disappoint. My only specific item is this: VanVets are only worth it in squads of 10 while accompanied by a SPriest. The Priest's high (even higher as of today) points cost makes him prohibitive for squads that aren't maximizing his benefits. I say this as someone who runs them regularly. I also like adding a captain to my vanvets, but that's just preference. You don't have to. Edit: Jump DC with boltguns are way too expensive for what they do.

That's not a bad idea. I'd done the blue to match it to the arc weapons and taser goads in the army as "electric" stuff. But I don't need to be that fixed. Might try that on the next lot.

Transfers. The one on the sides are from the Primaris Upgrade sheet and the others from the FW Horus Hersey Decal sheet.
