Glad to hear Cadians are on your short list. I've been working on the Vassal module specifically to easier support that list recently.
I don't forsee any major changes if that helps!
it does!
thanks, mate!

I’m hoping for something effecting the Gorgons again as they’re still pretty much auto-take units in the Epic list whilen background wise and in 40k Krieg are a static trench building artillery army that only very rarely do massed Gorgon assaults to attack enemy positions (and if possible only after spending years - literally - pounding these positions with artillery first).
The defensive siege / infantry hoarde list though already exists in the BSM so having the DKoK list here being the more breakthrough/assault themed one makes sense. I don't care that gorgons are auto-include. I'd care that they're prone to producing silly deathstars from (thank goodness the +10 infanty +gorgon codshite was killed off). Seems that instead we need to put things like the kibosh on the warhound and other point tweaks vs untheming the list.

Getting parity with the Death Riders is more complicated because Matt Shadowlord gave the companies walker. I find it kind bizarre and inappropriate that a massed company of 50 odd cavalry charging in close formation is way better at picking it way through woods and ruins than regular spread out scouting Rough Riders though and I’d really like to see walker rescinded. 275 seems too cheap for the company too, though it rarely gets taken in Epic-UK taken at 325 and 300 IMO would be a good compromise for both.
I was a big advocate when the list was being developed for changing Marauders to be the 2DC WE the FW models easily justify and hoped this would become a wider change through other lists. Given this never happened and isn’t going to I’d rather scrap the (fictional) ‘heavy marauder’ and switch the list to have regular Marauders instead. I did once abuse it in a game too by taking 6 x 150 point single WE Heavy Marauders and massed 60cm ground AA. If memory serves I came up against a titan legion, so they didn’t achieve much, but vs an army with not so much AA (and with some Krieg ground artillery units to supress that also) it could potentially be abusive IMO.
I cannot agree more with GlynG about the fake marauders. it doesn't break any collections to make them "regular" ones. I don't have a lot of experience with death riders but I have to say
and why do they have this? when it comes to
walker as well. Hopefully someone with more knowledge can help out there.
