The newest book from GW is out and it is quite mild compared to Lizards or dark elves but within the fairly bland pages lurks a bad list. First it is important to notice that this book returns the beastmen to a more standard army. The beast herds lost the raiders special rule and ambush changed to become a more random. The units also seem to get a bit more expensive which is interesting as gors seem a bit pricey at 8pts with shields. Much of the army also got a new rule called primal rage which allows units to get hatred for the round if they pass a leadership tests. The book also introduces a series of monsters which though overcosted may be fun to play. Unfortunately this book also allows players to play huge magic with using a herdstone to get up to 16 casting dice. They can also take chariot cores and put down the required core for a mere 90pts. This allows an abusive points denial magic list which will be the one you see at tournaments.
