I think you need a very good reason to veer away from the already describe stats, skills and skill access on a new human roster. This is the major mistake the crew that made the Khorne roster really didn't get.Ī human is a human. BB players are intelligent people and they know when the fluff feels real or not. It's clear the rules are made to balance the roster, and then some fluff to justify that is added. Justifying it with fluff (showing off) really doesn't work for me. Pass access (for example) on the Knights feel's terribly bolted on. Yes, I have never liked it much, but I feel you're losing the plot with it. Recently, rosters have been more based on teams (underworld/creepers Pact/Allstars) Personally I think those rosters are great and I would like to see more like this, however for me there's no harm in adding a Warhammer feel roster, especially when it's from a nation that shuns technology and keeps to traditional values, like Bretonnia.Īs for the feel of Martin/Plasmoid's team. I'm not sure they're making good decisions however. Yeah we have moved on from then, do Cyanide know this? It's difficult to know what they are thinking, however I do admire them for taking on brave decisions like Khorne and Bretonnia. The roster first came around when we were in a very Warhammer World orientated time (3rd/4th edition). If you don't like that, then really you're against the Bretonnian roster being added at all. I think it'd be a dangerous and difficult road to theme a Bretonnian roster on anything bar the 2 extreme tier roster that I think everybody who has done a list has. Whether you call them Knights/Peasants well I'm not sure that matters so much. The Warhammer nation is all about shunning technology or moving on (which in the BB world would be moving into the cyber-punk era), so I see no other way but to keep the Knight/Peasant theme. High Elves are rather traditional and keep to their values and Bretonnians are exactly the same. So if you're deliberately taking Bretonnia as a roster, how are you going to market that other than giving it a Knight/warhammer feel? That is what they're all about. What's more we have a vast array of figures from both ranges.

However that said, we have a game that has High Elves and Chaos Dwarfs (very 4th edition Warhammer) and the pre mentioned Pro Elves and Ogres (a modern take on the cyber feel). That 1980s future (that shadowrun had and let go) is such a cool look. The really cool thing about the 2nd ed feel is how it's aging. However that said, what we have no are teams from both a Warhammer feel and the renaissance meets cyber punk feel. (pro) Elves and Ogres both tried to create that vibe (mohawks, tight leather, visor helmets etc). Well JJ obviously got nostalgic for the 2nd ed feel as he tried to replicate that with the last few (official with official figure line) rosters to be released.
