	With 2nd edition release take all of this with some salt. While we do know that the warscrolls are going to be the same, we also know that new things (such as command points) are being added that will change tactics. One thing you may have noticed is that certain auras (Indomitable trait for example) got their range doubled ''at the expense of becoming wholly within''.

	** '''Hot Take:''' Given the FAQ buff to crossbowmen not needing to stand still to get off two shots, handguns are no longer the king of massive units. What they are perfectly priced to do now, however, is to function as 100 point mini warmachines. Take MSU of 10, equip each squad with a Long Rifle and then relish in having 30" snipers that are sitting on 3+/3+ if they've not moved before even factoring in any other buffs. Leave the volleys to crossbowmen, but allow your handgunners to function as sniper squads. The other 9 bodies throwing out their cheap Rend is just icing on the cake, along with an ability to make an enemy cavalry charging pay a price when they get with the the Stand and Shoot before -- let's be honest -- probably wiping out the squad.		** '''Hot Take:''' Given the FAQ buff to crossbowmen not needing to stand still to get off two shots, handguns are no longer the king of massive units.

	* '''Sword of Judgement (Realm of Shadow: Ulgu)''' - Pick one melee weapon. If the hit roll for this weapon against a HERO or MONSTER is 6+, that attack does D6 mortal wounds and the attack sequence ends. Chuck this on a Griffon General with a Sigmarite Runesword (you want it for the 5 attacks) and watch it carve a swathe through enemy heroes and monsters alike. Whilst it is a bit inconsistent by itself, put some +1 to hit on the Griffon General with the Rousing Battle Cry or Hold the Line! command abilities and you can bring that 6+ down to a 5+ or even 4+ plus.		* '''Sword of Judgement (Realm of Shadow: Ulgu)''' - Like the Runefangs of old!
