The Planck mission has recently delivered on its promise to obtain ~few percent level constraints on the fundamental parameters of the standard model of cosmology, the LambdaCDM model.  In spite of commonly-made claims that "all is well", detailed comparisons to other datasets are beginning to reveal some interesting tensions.  Measurements of local large-scale structure (LSS) in particular appear at odds with the CMB results.  A few recent studies have proposed massive neutrinos as a way to reconcile the CMB and LSS measurements.  However, before arriving at such a strong conclusion (or adopting any other modification of the standard model) we must be certain that we have properly dealt with all important sources of systematic error.  Precisely modelling large-scale structure is challenging in particular,  due to the non-negligible effects of feedback processes associated with galaxy formation.  Here I present the first results from a new large hydrodynamical simulation campaign (BAHAMAS - BAryons and HAloes of MAssive Systems) designed specifically for LSS cosmology purposes and that realistically captures the effects of feedback on LSS.  A number of the simulations include a massive neutrino component.  Using virtual observations of the simulations, I re-assess the evidence for tensions between the CMB and various LSS probes, including cosmic shear, CMB lensing, galaxy clustering, the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect and so on.  I then show the effects of massive neutrinos on these various LSS tests and discuss the current evidence for and against their cosmological importance.
