Witch Hunter Adversaries

[Iron Warrior]

Just throwing this out there. I may make an adversary army for fun.

Why are mutants 6 points in EoT but 8 in Witch Hunters?

There should be no diffrence because it even says use EoT if your doing an adversary LaTD list.

Why are there no Zombies in WItch Hunters when a LaTD adversary list will allow you to take zombies?

There is no fluff stating that zombies cant be apart of an adversary force...LaTD do it.

I belive this is a typo/misprint by GW with little care to fix because its an adversary force which it not termed GT legal.

Why would they make you pay 2 more points for something as crappy as a Mutant and omit zombies...for what seems like no valid purpose or exscuse?

i got a couple opinions on this

Mutants cost more in advasaries cause they are more than simply a troop choice but one that can be added to ANY ARMY

Got no good Close combat troops than add mutants, (tau, guard)

Need some throw away troops add mutants (Marines, Necrons)

2 pts more each for this versitility is a reasonabl addition.

Not sure why you would say crapy as a mutant since mutants seem to make the magority of LatD armies. (or is that mor an indication on how bad traitors are)



On the subject of Zombies
- they are barely in the LatD army they are a after though added to the list in a captiopn.

they are suppose to represent plague zombies that were common during the eye of terror campaign, as opposed to a standard option of the army.

the fact there are not plague zombies reflects that these advacary mutants are not pushed forward by the followers of nurgle. (or else you would simply be playing LatD who can arguably aready take them)

Then why are trator guard the same points? They serve the same purpose for the same points? Plus the get some extra options/weapons? Im sure khrone/ tzeentch/Necrons/tau could use a few extra las cannons/ plasma guns in thier ranks. Why did thier points not increase? I dont think you can justify the points increase on mutants that way. It just doesnt make sense.

If soemthing was to go up for a reason then it should be all the way across the board for the same reason. I dont think that argument is valid.
