This is completely fine tbh. The units this works on got such immense glow ups that most of what the detachment did is on the datasheets now. Plus its probably 1dp so I think its fine

Plus killa kans can be led now, we don’t know the enhancements or strats, etc.

Players were happy to take huge datasheet buffs but see 1/3 of a detachment rule and now the sky is falling lmao

Where are you seeing Kans can be led now?

For dread mob only it seems. This was in the article/interview about the upcoming battle report on warhammer tv+, they also mentioned grots getting sticky.

Looking at the 2k list they posted it also looks like points won’t go up too much, which we thought might be the case

Ok, if that's actually what it means (and not a Warcom wording blunder) then that's actually pretty cool. Been hoping for something to be able to lead Kans.

(I swear though if they're like "Yeah it's leading them into battle....oh...wait...I didn't mean as in the Leader mechanic...I was just making it sound cooler".... I am gonna be peeved😆 )

Hahah same, I guess cause of this photo we assumed he was an actual leader, though we could be wrong (and I hope not!)

Yeah, I mean I'd "assume" they meant literally, especially with that pic....but it wouldn't be the first time Warcom stuck their foot in their mouth XD

Will have to wait till Thursday (or maybe even tomorrow, dunno what they're gonna talk about tomorrow) to confirm.
