But what if we had a tool we could use to remove this frustration? What if humanity had already encountered difficulties assigning value to commodities? Could it be that there already exists a solution waiting for us in the pages of our history? From the early days of tribal bartering to the advent of mercantile capitalism, value for goods and services were assessed and compared through use of mankind's greatest invention. Indeed, the savior of Age of Sigmar is the same force that enabled savages from all over the world to ascend from a dreary and devoid existence. The solution to balancing AoS is mathematics.

Now I've been attempting to share the good word with the good folks of this community, but mostly my altruism has fallen on deaf ears. Outside of this community (and a few other exceptions) I do not typically trouble myself with the concerns of others. To protect my interests in the fantasy community, I will attempt to make my final appeal. Below is the entire woodelf model range with the Point-Cost-Algorithm applied to them.

Look at how much these numbers make sense. Compare them to other armies....
(WildRiders are 3 points more then Knights of the Realm, but 3 points less then both Questing Knights and Grail Knights)
(Glade Guard are 1 point more then Peasant Bowman, but the same cost as Dwarf Quarrelers and Thunderers)
(Nagash is 190pts and can cast 8 spells a turn, but a SpellWeaver w/ heartwood staff is 13pts. We can literally field 14 Spellweavers for the same price.)
All special rules are internally balanced upon the model's point-cost, and magic is no better then any other special rule.
Folks I'm telling you AoS is exactly what we have been asking for. Just look a little closer.
