    WOW khador arc node nerf

    New errata requires units to be in formation to have a unit targeting rule/spell put on them.

    hmm. looks like it was mostly that ruling and a bunch of unit type fixes resulting from the ruling a while back. I don't play most of those units to know what effect those had, the one i noticed was that Morvhanna1 can't regrow rocks now which is good.

    the formation rule makes things interesting, because it doesn't just remove the Khador arc node, it also possibly gums up your order of operations if your unit leader dies and the field promotion leaves a random grunt out of formation. wonder how often that will come up

    That is s a good point. I think this makes purify casters/ EEiryss even stronger. If a unit is wide spread, you kill the middle guys and strip their uber upkeep. Might have to be watching command like a hawk now.

    I am happier that that last Skinwalker has to be in formation for Carnivore.

    the Skorne forums are surprisingly upset about this ruling. apparently they think that we're going to suffer because we can't get buffs on Nihilators as easily. odd, seeing that Skorne has generally good command stats and not a ton of reliance on unit-wide buffs outside of pMakeda. meh.

    Its a fairly minor deal. People just like to bitch.

    Also, it helps Skorne in theory since people might bring troops in closer, making Mammoth and Incindiarii AEs to be more effective.
