How do you feel about the new khorne roster and fluff?

I like the new team, and I think the fluff fits like a glove.

It had to be done.
Silent majority let yourself be heard.
Let's see how it goes.

Where's the "I'm not bothered either way by the team, but the fluff bothers me a lot" option? None of the listed cover my feelings.

+1 to Darkson. Also I am bothered by "definitely" being spelled incorrectly in the poll!

Well, first vote is in, so those are the options. So for the purpose of this poll you'd have to make a decision whether you're ultimately for or against.
Your sigline seems to give an indication though.

Nope, no vote as none of the options fit.

come on Darkson, at a push I think you could select one of these -

I don't like the new team, and the fluff has nothing to do with that.
I don't like the new team, and I definately don't like the fluff for it.

its going to cause issues if this is allowed in tourneys, as some people like Darkson will refuse to play them on principle.

also. Strange poll Plasmoid as 5 of the responses seem neagtive to me, and only one that is pro Daemon rosters. But hey ho.

It is a bit of an odd poll as I think the fluff is fine, just that the team doesn't represent it.

I also think the team in itself is ok, I dislike the rosters for Khemri and Amazons more. But when combining a lacklustre roster with the fluff of Khorne Daemons it makes a poor team.

I don't like or dislike the roster (though I'd remove Pass and add mutation).
I dislike the fluff attached to the roster (as in it doesn't fit).

Therefore there is no option that fits.


But thanks for deciding that I don't like the roster Garion. :roll:

The mismatch of stats to player types and background, including passing Pit Fighters being Khorne, is so bad it is almost unbelievable that it was made.
Far too many players wanting to be the team blitzer too.

Also dode's and galak's (if he votes) vote should be removed. They are clearly bias as they created this monstrosity.

Hi all,
I didn't major in the social sciences, so I went with systematic:
2 options (like/dislike) times 3 fluff options (like/dislike/indifferent)

Dode & Galak will be counted. They're players too.

Where is the option 'thanks Tom for ensuring we didn't get something awful, the team is both different and not a clpomb monster but it is not a demon team'.

Sounds like you like the team but not the fluff that is supposed to make it daemons.

I think the roster is fine, just don't think it has much to do with Khorne (and don't think Khorne should have its own roster, for that matter). Take away the horns and it might as well be Albion or Kislev or any other "wild" race from Warhammer.

Well, half that statement is correct. I am merely glad it isn't awful, but that doesn't mean i like it.

I would have picked the option between like and dislike of list, but combined with dislike of fluff.
