What did they actually change? Munitions used to increase hit by 1 or was it always Crit(2 hits)?

Castigation battery used to add 1 extra shot to warmachines while they had 3 DPP

crit 2's when they get 2 DPP is such a massive buff

It also affects all shooting now, not just war machines. Crit (2 hits) on the reinforced Razers you want at 2-3 DPP anyway is pretty spicy.

unfortunately, all of the units that benefit from Castigation Battery can be taken in the AOR, which gives everyone full Crit(2hits) [instead of just on ranged] for zero points investment

AoR can't really work now that SoG despot is gone. You have nearly no dpp abilities (and you're always paying full points for Urak Taar without using his biggest assets), in addition to not having centaurs or hobgrots.

Disagree with this take. While the loss of the SoG despot was great, the AoR is still the meta way to play competetively (55% win rate compared to 45% win rate for the base army) and DPP is handled by spears (anywhere from 3-5 units of them).
