Point leaks for CA 2019

[topaxygourouni]

Hierodule has Massive Scything Talons, which is the same the Trygon has and they went down 10 more points.

FW has a separate points cost section. Also trygons are for '3 or more pairs', while FW is single or pair pts cost.

This video confirms that Heirodules are unchanged from CA18 (22 / 60pts for FW ScyTal options).

Codex Massive Scytal entry is "Two or more pairs" I think. Don't have access to the book atm tho.

Fair enough: hadn't been paying too much attention to FW.

That's my beef with this supplement. Lot of cool, fluffy, useful stratagems that absolutely should have been bespoke rules on the units.

I had exactly this thought reading through the stratagems, but I’m feeling a bit more optimistic than most.

Someone said Shrikes are down to 21 pnts? Anyone know where from?

They were 26pts in the index

Right, I didnt see it in the spoilers, but people in the FB group were talking about it.

Yeah, 21 points in the CA. So 3 points to give Warriors flying? Seems good, but they need to make them actual warriors for strats and prime.

Bring 9 bs/ds shrikes in a custom hive fleet of: outnumbering the opponent grants ap-1. -1 hit vs your fly units in melee.

Give them the adaptation to ignore ap-1 and -2

Dont throw them into thunder hammers and your going to get results.

I think I need to magnetize some warriors with garg wings again. Bring a flyrant for that 3d6 roll after hurting and presumably putting the shrikes into the superior numbers for ap-4 boneswords, and since they're str4 transhuman won't save them mwhahahahaaa

Looking through my list.
Oh cool, 84 free points.

I guess I really do use all of the low tier stuff no one wants.
Haruspex, warriors, gargoyles, Trygon Prime...
