Having played a few games at the club and practice games at home, I've come to like the simplicity of the rules and the game dynamic it produces.
No more HeroHammer or huge tomes to look through to see what the rules subsection states, and easy to get a game done in a short space of time.
Unfortunately, in there eagerness to get rules out to use their models, Alessio did a fine job but I do wonder about the costing of some of the units.
Lets take for example a Simple Regiment from the Undead and the Elves (20 strong unit with no Standard Bearer or Musician).
Skeleton Regiment (20)Sp 5, Me 5+, De 4+, At 10, Ne 6 with Evil Dead, Shambling Horde and Phalanx rules @95pts
Elven Spearmen Regiment (20)Sp 6, Me 4+, De 4+, At 10, Ne 6 with Elite and Phalanx rules @110pts
Some stats can be ignored as they will have no difference between the effectiveness of each unit.
So the main differences are:
1) Speed - Elves will likely get the charge...
