@@thepastrychef8014 But why can Guard characters give specific orders to their units, but other factions leaders can't? Why couldn't a Marine captain order one unit to take aim and another to fix bayonets? Seems pretty unfair, right. Really you could make that argument for almost everything in the entire Guard codex. I think GW gives certain rules to factions in large part to make that faction feel like it should. One of the Guards' biggest themes and selling points are it's tanks - it's THE tank faction, really - so it makes perfect sense for them to get a rule that actually makes them far more viable than they were before.

Just a correction for chef: Vehicle orders in the dataslate were 1 target, no bouncing. The buff was for tank commanders to order other vehicles, but they still only had 1 order by default. Most of the time that still just went on the TC itself. Infantry orders bounced the exact same way they do now. So for the infantry it's the effect of the orders that changed and that there's more variety now. And that vehicles actually get to make use of them now properly instead of just shouting at one tank specifically.

I don't think that the order system is so broken as you made out. Sure, a castellan with the warlord trait to order tanks is a cheap alternative to a Tank Commander, but you'll only get one order per turn, per officer that can order tanks. Especially the first couple of turns, you will be getting a lot of extra use out of the orders, but, as was evident in the last couple of turns, The Vanquisher, Chimeras and Leman Russ Battle tank went down in effectiveness without the orders to boost them. Before, guard really struggled to get some decent buffs on their units, one of the reasons Pask and TCs were so beloved and why you almost never saw regular leman russ units. Now we have a couple more units that give reroll 1s or other buffs to CORE innately, but still, if you want to buff a tank, you better bring a TC along to help it.
