New points cost

[radthelad]

Hi, long time lurker here. I watched these two videos:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQY932e6hN4
www.youtube.com/watch?v=35XCkqzs15o
and based off of that made a list of the new points cost of the models, their previous points and how much they went up or down down in cost. Didnt have quite the time currently to do weapons as well though i will try and add to it later if possible, or someone else is welcome to do so if they wish.

Hive guard 40pts up from 18pts! That seems steep, am I missing something?

For esxample genestealer with rending start from 14 to 15

Their weapons got much cheaper, but it is still a price increase.

Their weapon costs have gone down drastically, impaler cannons down from 25 to 10 and shock cannons from 21 to 0. So the actualy model cost has gone up from 43 pts to 50 with impalers (+7pts) and 39 to 40 with shock (+1 pts).

Appologies that was me checking the points incorrectly, their base cost was 10 not 12 (12 was when the rending claws were included as you stated). Fixed it and thanks for catching that.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. However, as there is already a new Tyranid point thread I will be locking this one. Please continue your discussion on the other thread.
