Hey guys, so I was wondering what do you think about the Royal Hippogryph knights.
I feel for their 2000 gold price point, they are underwhelming to say the least, they are really squishy, for their cost making them a risky pick at first, but also their damage is really weak, they do 135 with 6 models and they often knock back enemies meaning they take no damage. They struggle their life out of kill a swordmaster unit wich should be their ideal target, low HP, armored, anti-infantry. They are kinda weak in air battle too; much better to pick pegasus knights.
I just feel that they are not worth 2000 gold, they only get used in certain matchup, because with louen they can swarm large armored models, wich Bretonnia has nothing against, by buffing them it would help fix bretonnias huge weakness to large armored single entities.
What they could do is
+5 MD
+15 AP WS and +5 WS
Maybe something more could be done, but those numbers are just an idea.

They already got decent buffs and are strong now.

Really strong if you don't wanna go the Louen route to have terror.

Maybe frenzy?

I just want to see a little something to make them stronger

Ure paying $500 xtra in addition of a grail knight, and u get... this fat bird knight thing on air thats just lacklustre.
