Games Workshop regularly goes over the records of their games and makes sure that everything is working as it should. This often requires fine-tuning some stuff to make sure everything’s balanced. Hence the release of Balance Dataslates. The latest one for 40k is available now.
From the post:
It’s been three months since the last Balance Dataslate for Warhammer 40,000. Since then there have been two new codexes – Adeptus Custodes and Genestealer Cults – and a whole new season of Warhammer 40,000 focusing on War Zone Nachmund.
We also got Chapter Approved 2022, which brings a host of changes to the game, including a bevvy of points changes summarised here. But the designers aren’t done, and now it’s time for the next instalment of the Balance Dataslate. This is a quarterly free download from the Warhammer 40,000 design team which rounds up balance changes so the game stays fun, fair, and competitive.
This edition of the Dataslate contains simple-to-understand updates to a handful of Drukhari outlier units in Warhammer 40,000, making for a better play experience for all. It’s much shorter than the last Dataslate – though no less vital. Most of the balance changes from the previous round remain, which is good news for Necrons, and the Leman Russ battle tank!
