So what happened? Apparently our Primaris Pyskers, Conscripts, Stormtroopers' weapons (meltaguns and hot-shot volley guns specifically), Taurox Prime, Astropaths and Wyverns got more expensive. And bloody ell, Tempestus command rods cost 5 points now (well, I'm guilty of abusing them when they're free, so...)!
On the other hand, autocannons and force staves got cheaper. To break it down, Astropaths doubled in points, Primaris Psykers went up by 6 points overall (base cost went up by 10 but force stave dropped by 4), Conscripts went up by 1 point per model which puts them on par with infantry squads' Guardsmen, Manticore went up by 10 points, Ratlings by 2, Taurox by 10, Taurox Prime by a whooping 15 while their Taurox gatling cannons went up by 2 points (so basically my Taurox Prime with storm bolter now costs 116 points instead of 97, up by 19 points), and Wyverns increased by 10 points. Oh boy.
On the other hand, power fists got dropped from 10 to 8, force staves from 12 to 8 points, and autocannons from 15 to 12, and now Vanquisher battle cannons are cheaper, dropping to 20 points. Well deserved reduction! As for forged world, the Vendetta gunships remain the same in cost, but it seems my Leman Russ Annihilator dropped by 10 points!
Phew.
In the light of these changes, I have to adjust my lists. The Taurox Prime has simply become too expensive for me to take. Ouch. A pity, but given how one of these bad boys murdered an entire squad of Intercessor Marines by himself, I understand why his points had to go up.

So this is my new list to go along with the Chapter Approved points adjustment. It hurts, it really does, but then again I've been crushing most people with this list, so...

This is the alternative list if I want more Command Points. I somehow managed to fit all of them inside this list at 2,000 points, at the expense of 1 Tempestus command rod. Oh well. But if I really want as many Command Points as possible, I'll try to form a Brigade like this:

However, I don't have the Wyverns or Basilisks, so...we shall see. Besides, I'm satisfied with what I have now, and I'm just waiting for my Adeptus Mechanicus Cybernetica robots to arrive!
