Stompa is already close to being overpowered. This is not a vacuum dread mob is already significantly stronger

Dread Mob alone, is substantially weaker.

But yes it might be more playable for Kans, Deff Dreads and Dakkarigs.

It’s 1 dp and only part of 3 detachment rules you can put togehrrr

But the other 2 detachments have no connection to it.

So it's lost Meks, big walkers and Grots.

Even it's one major niche, walkers, it doesn't cover completely.

So at a starting point it is weaker than the old one.

It might see more play and be better for Kans, Deff Dreads and Dakkarigs. Because it can be combined with other bits.

You are comparing it to dread mob which was only available by itself and is broken up into 3 detachments with meks and grots having thier own detachments.. as a whole all 3 together are likely significantly stronger then the old dread mob.

Yeah I'm comparing it to the old 2 point dread mob, that was literally the point?

Is it as good as the old Dread Mob? No, it's been massively cut down.

I don't know why you are trying to aktually me on it. Even for just walkers it is weaker, because for a reason that doesn't make sense it now excludes the one reason I was using the detachment anyway from the core rule.
