Eh... These would honestly have been great 5-6 years ago, back in 2nd Ed.

I think I'll just stick to my custom ones, if not the Punga minis I've got stashed away right now.

Nice models, utterly pointless in terms of the rules they revealed though...

As an aside; why is their pavise triangle shaped and not pavise shaped? The shieldbearer is basicly completly vulnerable. And half the reason the gunner is "protected" is because he's behind the shieldbearer. Bit silly, even if triangles are very skaven-like.
 
It's that wonderfull time of the year again; price-hikes.

Really makes you wonder what kind of razorthin profitmargins they think are operating under that they feel the need to update them (nearly?) yearly...

You've answered your question - because it's Skaven to a tee to make a shield that protects the more important gunner and not the expendable shieldbearer - there are plenty of Skavenslaves around to do that job :p

"* In Sweden and Norway, the average price change will be between 8% and 14%."

Double ouch.

Sure, but I'd also kinda expect the shieldbearers to be the one to make the shields. And thus be motivated to protect himself :p

Plus, if nothing else, it's inconvenient if your shieldbearer falls over and you need to wait for the next one to pick up the shield and be your tri-pot
So even the gunner has some motivation to get a bigger shield :p

Not to mention, once that shieldbearer is down, now the gunner's exposed.

Whole hosts of issues which various skaven should be concerned by really :p
 
Terrain rules

Models can now jump off cliffs. Unclear if there is going to be fall damage.

Only faction terrain can be destroyed, which feels odd.

Other than that we seem to get 40K rules regarding LoS.

And some terrain pieces can give you a +1 to casting on a D3 roll.
