do people use decimators very often?
During the playtest phase, the answer was : "Often enough that when spammed they completely broke the army list"
Rather than increase their points cost, the army champion at the time introduced a 0-2 limit on formations of them.
Latterly it's been decided to leave them at their current price, remove the 0-2 limit (I think?) and move them into the "Allies" section of the army list so as to lessen the emphasis on War Engines and increase the emphasis on the Chaos Marines (the Black Legion list at least theoretically being a Chaos Marines army list!).
Faced with competing for the same points allocation as Feral Titans, I think the Feral Titans will probably take the lion's share of the selections in the future, because they are even better value for points, IMHO, than the Decimators.
