Questions like this make you wonder how Eldar are going to be implemented, as far as I am aware their main troop type is the Eldar Guardian, which is pretty much on par with a Guardsman, Aspect Warriors are quite rare units.
Make IG the only turtling faction, give them the ability to build destroyable barricades, anti-vehicle fencing, turretguns and lay down fields of boobytraps and landmines..... Agreed, a Leman Russ with a demolisher cannon would one shot a landraider, give me a Basilisk and nothing would be safe.
Guardian aren't going to be a playable class (too weak comparing to a space marine), the eldar starting classes so far are warlock and some aspect warriors.
I think he was highlighting the lore difficulties seeing as the Eldar Aspect warriors are pretty few in number in comparison to the population that are only guardians or have taken up other Paths like the Artist or the Poet. I think it works out though, seeing as the Eldar will have the smallest population in the game more likely than not
I would go with the Imperial Guard, but for the female players I'm going to vote for the Sisters Sororitas
That was exactly it, the problem with balance is the Space Marine Chapters, every factions could essentially start on par with Imperial Guard, Eldar Guardians, Chaos Cultists, Ork Boyz. It's the LSM that are the unbalancing point in the game but happen to be the most popular so lore gets broken, Guardians and Cultists get ignored and Boyz become F2P. The only real argument against IG is that Marines are more powerful and they wouldn't stand a chance, to my mind it's not the IG that is unbalancing things it's the LSM.
