| My thoughts, without much in the way of playtesting;
Archon: They've gone from being a 2+ to hit Blaster to a great aura machine or a killy close combat monster. Succubus: With the addition of relics and warlord traits, she's a fantastic beatstick for her price. Bonus points for being able to have warlord traits without running the risk of giving up slay the warlord. Kabalites: They're dirt cheap now and have the capability to deal better damage than their Index version. Can also be made immune to morale from turn 2 with the right build, if you want to footslog big blobs of them. Wracks: A potential T5 with a 4++ save for 9 points? Good luck clearing these off objectives, especially since they also have a (semi-)resurrection stratagem. Reavers: Possibly the best interception unit in the game now, especially with Red Grief. They aren't necessarily going to kill much but that shouldn't be their job. Ravager: Already fantastic, they've gotten cheaper, gained access to rerolling hits and wounds, and a 6+++ FNP save. Razorwing Jetfighter: A similar story to the Ravager - great in the Index, now even better. Raider: Cheaper, the potential to be faster or more durable, and now able to provide a good buff to Kabalites embarked within. | |

Tying stuff up in close combat, grabbing objectives, acting as an aggressive unit that forces the enemy to focus fire on it first. If you want to kill stuff in a Wych Cult list then Wyches, Hellions and Razorwings all do a better job of it. | |
