There’s been dissent on the internet since Codex: Leagues of Votann leaked nearly a month ago. The codex was too powerful due to a combination of strong rules and aggressively pointed units. Today, Warhammer Community posted their reaction with a clear slate of Leagues of Votann Balance Updates.
GW takes this so seriously that they’ve booted up James Workshop early to take the blame!
So, what’s really changed?
Codex: Leagues of Votann errata modifies Eyes of the Ancestors such that attacks which automatically wound are never considered to rolled an unmodified 6.
Meanwhile in Leagues of Votann Points Values errata, the cost of every unit has been increased.
Considering Leagues of Votann was play tested versus unmodified Aeldari and Tyranids the original costs may have been balanced. However, those two books have been trimmed back hard since release. I wonder if GW had these changes in mind since then?
With any luck these are the only Leagues of Votann Balance Updates we’ll see. Their fate rests on battlefield success.
