My take on celestine / sisters is that Celestine should cost 165, but a squad of 10 battle sisters should cost 90 base rather than 130 (especially if they're the ONLY troop choice and retain their min squad size of 10).

Well it appears this is no longer about the invitational results.

It's 40k, be happy that the game is more balanced then ever (FACT), stop with the crying for the love of the baby jesus.

Are we talking about overpowered combos? Attach Eldrad with Div powers to wraithguard troops w/ fortune seer and watch in disbelief as battle cannons, plasma cannons, railguns, las cannons, CSM dragon breath.. all bounce off of the unit. You might kill 3 by turn 5, but thats only if 90% of your army is shooting at it. Any infantry or vehicle with 12" of it will die horriblely and it will definately lockdown an objective.

No idea where the eldar hate is coming from... lets see.  wraithguard and a seer plus eldrad is like 640 points, and has a 12 inch shooting range.

Its not Eldar hate, I in fact enjoy deploying this unit. I tilt my head back and laugh maniacally as my Space Marine Opponent wastes his ammo in it. I just thought I'd add it to the list lolz

Nah, Broken is what Sean Nayden's running, and he'll totally admit to it, too.  DE Beast pack with the Baron and Eldrad right behind to turn them invisible.  Hit and run rerollable (so 35/36)  2+ cover and can reach almost any part of the board by turn 2.  Baron has stealth just in  case Invisible doesn't happen for some reason, and he has a bunch of other funny little rules similar to Coteaz.  Flamers don't work against the squad either because of the Kymera at the front. 

He asked me, "are you mad, Matt?"

I said "no, just disappointed".
