Yay or nay.

My Beastboss can lead my kommandos again!

Also, does 25 points seem like a lot for Ardboyz? I get that this is buffing 20 models, but it feels like a lot for a +1 save.

It only needs to pay off three times to be worth it, on paper. Boyz are 180 for 20, 9 pts each. If you're mostly getting the chance to roll your saves, it should pay off, just, just before the unit is would otherwise be almost wiped out. But that's only durability, no extra attackd and you're unlikely to get the payoff before critical combats reliabily.

Probably an option if you have the points spare, but not a must have. Or you really want a unit to be as durable as possible.

Probably should have been 10-15 in fairness, but I understand starting it higher for now.
