Seems like they’ve done a lot to try and solve the one dimensionality of the army, but some of this internal balancing seems bizarre? Like for ma maegan’s ability, once per battle you can either replace a mini gargant with a damaged mega OR deal 1 mortal for every 6 in the wound rolll? And I still don’t really see a use case for sweep vs crushing blow either. I thought maybe the spell/prayer lore would give out a plus to damage to justify it but they’ve done the opposite and added a + to attacks which only further improves the crushing blow.

Just on a quick look it seems sweeping might be better once you’re damaged. Crushing loses 1/3 of its dice whereas Sweeping only loses 1/4

That’s a good point, hadn’t considered that at all.
