        Fine, as long as you lower the cost of my bloodletters
to 100 points, and trolls to 200. It's not like they're unbalancing
at their current cost, so if you're going to make them weaker, they
should cost less.

        Except HT & Doms are command units, can only be shot
at if they're the closest SH, have better armor saves (for when
they're being shot) and better CAFs (for CC). They do have
greater staying power, they just don't regenerate as well.

        I think Carnis are treated the way they are to keep things
somewhat consistant with bloodletters and trolls.

        Yep, unless the IG somehow managed to move out of the
way between the CC phase and the end phase...
