Thats how I recall it to.
Yes a lot of changes was nessecary, and IMHO more will be needet, but lets
play first and see how the preform.
However, I do belive that the change in army composition is the main reason
why the slann now seem more balanced. I understand your frustration though,
since I know how much money you've put into this army. Thats also why I
suggest that all vanguards should be special cards, just like the Baron is
for the imperial knights! (then you would be able to field it). You could
use your minis as the other types of mechs you know! Thats ok with us!
