Flame and shadow take a hit in a new balance patch
"The flame... extinguished." – Artellus Numeon
Despite the mid-month balance update toning down some of their more prominent cards, the Salamanders are still bringing too much heat to the battlefield. The Raven Guard and their ambush tactics have also proven to be a bit too effective, so we’re making some adjustments to their best performing warriors. Check out all the changes in the latest web post: https://www.horusheresylegions.com/september-2023-balance-patch

v3.1.5 Release Notes
A new patch is live, fixing the incorrect behaviour of a few of the new Raven Guard cards and a couple of edge cases and undesired interactions. Take a look at the full list:
● Fixed edge case error which could cause some incorrect interactions (eg. with Fierce Onslaught) in troops that gained First Strike or Sneak Attack on Ambush. ● Fixed Lunar Eclipse bug so that the correct number of friendly units receive Stealth. ● Fixed Kraa Squad and Contemptor Edagar so that their ability isn't triggered by your Warlord's Ambush. ● Fixed Corvus Corax's wings to represent his Unstoppable trait. ● Matches in Standard mode using an alternate art version of warlords will now count correctly towards Achievements and Warlord stats. ● Improvements to automatically recover when a crate fails to open normally due to a server timeout. ● Fixed Ambush abilities not always triggering when a troop dies from Poison at the start of its turn
