I can see the logic there... Their ban on unit spam and lowering the number of fanatics also hits them really hard. Without being able to run a half-dozen bolt throwers, they have a lot more trouble with flying monsters. The ban on multiples of units is rather puzzling to me, it cuts out the potential for a lot of themed lists, like an all-Chrace High Elf army, or some of the cult-specific units in the Skaven book. Though they say they're using the new book, so we'll see.

That is one side effect of most comp systems - super fluffy armies get axed by collateral damage.

I have Warmachine that weekend and the weekend after. Games Plus is a great store, though.

Max.70 shots per turn with a range of 20”+ (not including war machines) I've never tried to get this kind of shooting from the Woodies before. Makes me curious enough to try it out

Though they say they're using the new book, so we'll see. I agree. This kind of thing bugs me. I would think that you could see the 3 hydra army as a power-game move as a judge, while leaving other people alone fielding things like an all Charce army (which is a really cool idea actually).
