Biovores, whose main job is movement blocking, got hit with a 37% (15 pts) price hike in the "punish indirect fire" change, despite being nowhere as oppressive as the marine stuff (which only went up by 10 pts).
Also, hilariously, the Harpy went up by 35% (60 pts) for absolutely no reason at all. It sucked before and it's unusable now. I truly believe they did a ctrl+f for "spore mine" and just rubber stamped a nerf without read that the harpy doesn't fire indirectly. For reference, the Landspeeder Tornado does the exact same "fly by for mortal wounds" gimmick, and that didn't increase in points at all. Nor did any other aircraft.
Hoo boy. Bad start for 10e nids in the ole "points balancing will fix things" department.

price hike for them seems ok, i'll gladly take that over spore mines not being able to score anymore (and it may still come...)
