It had a lot more problems than 8th did if you were actually trying to play something that resembled a medieval styled fantasy battle. Particularly the Daemons had shockingly poor internal and external balance and made playing balanced games very difficult.ħth edition was extremely competitive and the most tightly balanced version of WFB that GW did. Especially the VC, Daemon and Dark Elf books. At the same time, GW started going for the "Big Centrepiece" method of marketing the game and I found this to be a turn off.ĭownsides to 7th? Poor army book design later on in the edition. Seige, the campaign system that was out then, the style and background in the Army Books, it was all top notch.Ĩth had some good points, but on the whole I found it a bit unweildy to play and I think it encouraged several playstyles I didn't enjoy. I regret selling mine off when I moved out of Ireland. I love the 6th edition Beastmen for example, they were an amazingly fun army to play small skirmishes with. That was my favourite time in Fantasy, when things were reasonably affordable, the rules were tight and tactical, and the model lines were becoming better and better with time. I think I would go back to 6th/early 7th edition. I started playing in 5th edition, and stopped playing at the start of 8th.
