Changing it now has implications for air drop style lists and it won't be something that happens in the Third Phase list.
This post is the exact essence of what I'm talking about.
Please take a look at it again. Do you feel you come across as constructive and open to discussion?
Are there ways to solving the problem that are more elegant?
Have you considered my argument, or are you just trying to find ways of dismissing it?
I am sorry you might feel this way and indeed I try to respond to direct suggestions with regards lists as quickly as possible.
However I think you fall down sometimes with regards the Third Phase list in that it is an approved list, changes to the list have to be small and not have implications regarding balance.
The ability to add Pathfinders as points efficient upgrades to air dropped Fire Warrior formations has balance implications and is removing a degree of synergy and co-ordination which is what the list tries to achieve.
Now I have seen posts by you saying how you enjoyed using Pathfinders added to Fire Warriors and I understand you might then be frustrated with the lack of such an option in the main list. But the lack of an option is not in of itself a reason to change an approved list - only a balance reason should change an approved list.
Pathfinders as an upgrade option will probably be available in newer lists and indeed I believe Matt-Shadowlords Vior'la list uses just such an option and will be balanced around it.
