Am I the only the only considering fielding the Basic Land Raider just for the long range Anti-Tank that it brings?
Same.
Oh, hate it a lot. I like the simple design of the past where everything was listed out simply under each header. Also when it was in the middle of the book and not the back so the thing would lay flat when you were writting up lists!Besides, am I the only one who hates their new codex layout? No more convenient army list in the back of the book is stupid IMO. Now I have to flip through multiple pages while trying to build an army and figure out what goes where. Maybe some folks like it, but I think it's absolutely horrible. Now just more wasted space to show mediocre photos of their miniatures. Frankly I preferred the artwork from previous editions.
Oh, totally taking one as a Troops Trasport, OS metal barn!

We work with the tools we're given.

I keep trying to find a justification to give a unit, any unit, Nemesis Falchions because I love the look but I just can't do it. An extra attack is just not worth 4 pts especially when the +1S Halberd is only 2, to say nothing of how Hammerhand now makes taking even just the swords viable.
That way it is super situational. Thing is, Halberd affects no way any instant death threshold that GK can achieve.(hammerhand + halberd arent enough to ID toughness 4 unit and with hammerhand alone you can ID toughness 3).
Since GK seems to have to eliminate its enemies now in close combat, even more than in previous incarnation of the codex. I'd go for extra attacks, because of the possibility of getting +2Str and re-rolls to hit anyway (hammerhand and that divination power)
Just to rub salt into the wound, the assassins they stripped out have become really awesome now apparently. You just need to pay more (real world cash) to use them. I'd expect something similar when they bring our the =I= elements in a separate book. Yay...
Falchions are much better than Halberds, but cc upgrades really aren't worth it at all for the most part., except to throw a few hammers in here and there.
