    I skipped from first to third to fifth editions, and I must admit that 5th edition is much more balanced and playable. I found the early editions were all about creating unstoppable Independent Characters (ICs), and whomever created the most overpowered army would win. Now... it seems a little more balanced, such that even the footsloggers can do some decent damage, and ICs left alone can be overwhelmed.

    I agree with you there. GW has simplified the rules considerably in 5th edition while adding a ton of new elements, units and rules to give older armies new life. ICs are indeed a little more vulnerable, but with so many dangerous new units on the table, you have to be smart and flexible.

    I had to learn a bunch of new rules, but I feel they are stronger than 3rd/4th ed.

    Cheers. What armies do you field?

    Very nice lens. I had forgotten about Rogue Trader. Thanks for having my memory refreshed of the good ol' days.
