I wouldn't say the units are superior (Sanguinary Guard have already had a price cut since release and Deathwing Knights had to be buffed to make them worth taking). It is having the option to take them that makes them superior.

SG can be significantly more durable than BGV, better in melee than BGV, more mobile, and shoot better.

 

they can be more durable than terminators now.  Arguably even in melee, more mobile.

 

VGV? They’re more durable, better melee, and better shooting.

 

them getting a price cut doesn’t mean they weren’t good it just means they were overcosted.

Are you saying that sanguinary guard for example aren’t flat out superior to their nearest vanilla counterparts, especially when combined with LAG’s detachment rule?

I say they pay the points for their abilities. If you just look at their data sheets they are superior, sure. But we don't do that, we have to pay points. It's not that long ago where ppl were sad, because their output came down as they are now only 6 models max and no longer 10. No more fists and only 2 inferno pistols in a max squad.
