Maybe yes. I'm running short of time in these days and i still have to look at it. If someone else is more prepared than me, can post some considerations
The basic things mentioned still hold. Magic is still powerfull being able to one-shot stuff. 1-wound models are still rather weak. Horde-bonusses are useless, so units who rely on those are barely functional. To be honest not a whole lot changed, except you can now make up a campaign to take down nagash or something cuz he now has points (lots and lots and lots of points...)
