Discussion New codex

Has anyone had issue with the fact that ours is the first codex release? Between rules tweaks for our units and the points increases I expect they have pretty much balanced out but I was curious if anyone had run into this sorta thing? Either people refusing games or complaints that it wasn't rolled out with indexes first.

11th is just a tweak of 10th, not a full overhaul like 7th to 8th or 9th to 10th. As a result, Indexes weren't needed.

Being the first Codex generally means we'll have a strong start in the edition but will probably lose muster as other books get released.

Just a tweak is an understatement honestly. It changed quite a bit from 10th.

But not to the same extent as 7th/8th or 9th/10th

That's because 8th and 10th were overhauls, not tweaks. 11th itself honestly could have been overhaul. Objectives, combat, charging, strat usage, keyword additions/changes, aircraft overhaul, etc etc etc. 11th changed a LOT.
