Games Workshop have announced on the community site that they are increasing the points of the Stormcast Dragons before their release.

Welcome to Woehammer – have you noticed the lovely feeling of no adverts (ads), no pop-ups and no auto-playing videos? Well, that’s the norm here at Woehammer.

But this is only possible because of our wonderful Patreons. So, some articles over 1 year old will now display our Patreon request at the top of the article… like this one! Don’t worry, we are not adding ads – but if you can afford to donate to the site, we would definitely appreciate it. Membership is available from just £1/month (plus taxes!!)

Check out the full article at Warhammer Community for full information, but the summary is that GW have done some additional play testing on the Dragons and decided to increase the points

Some of these increases are quite dramatic with Stormdrake Guard (2) going up by 55 points; Stormdrake Guard (1) going up 25 points; and Knight Draconis going up 45 points.

It’s great to see the rules team taking on board concerns, and not waiting for units which could cause people to have ‘feel bad’ games; It’s also good to see this pre-emptive approach to stop people buying entire armies of Stormdrake Guard and not being able to use them.

So well done to the GW rules team for making a quick change – hopefully this bodes well for the future and it would be great to see these quality of life adjustments appear more often – as much to help the bottom and curb the top.
