Warhammer 40,000 – Balance Update: Chaos, the Imperium and Xenos Strike Back
As Space Marine variants make up the majority of armies in Warhammer 40,000, it is generally wise to build your army assuming you will face them at some point. Most units that were good at killing Space Marines still are. Brokhyr Thunderkyn, Apocalyptic arches, Screaming Banshees, Counter currentsAnd Knight Despoilers will continue to cause problems for the Adeptus Astartes.
After analyzing the impacts, what are the advantages of this change for you?
As we’ve said, there will be fewer Space Marine corps on the battlefield, which will change their approach to the game. They won’t be able to trade** for objectives as well as many non-Space Marine armies, and they will find it more difficult to maintain their objectives and safely complete secondary objectives. More horde-focused armies, like Astra Militarum, Drukhari, and Genestealer Cults, will be better equipped to trade bodies through the brutal meat grinder for that sweet victory.
Increasing the strength of bolters and chainswords has varying value against your armies. For the average Human, Aeldari, Leman Russ or Goliath Rock CrusherThis change means nothing, because it is not enough to improve their chances of damaging against these types of targets.
