I learn more from you than I do my own games. Win or lose, your analysis is helping me stage/deploy better and react to every armies shenanigans. Keep pouring it on.
Very nice report as always! I had a 1.5k game today with a modified King-less list with the Lokhust block as anchor and honestly, with the orb from the Lord, the orb from the CCB and the help of a nearby Reanimator, combined with the fallback and shoot enhancement, it felt really good! Two time I brought the pack from half dead to full wound, it was very satisfying!
Wow, the ONE point differance! These kinds of games are the best because even if you know you made mistakes, it was still that close :) I'm learning so much from your videos, thank you and keep it up, king! :)
Hey man, I have been playing starshatter recently and have loved all your videos and they have really helped. However the last 3 games of mine, my opponent has easily accomplished the secret mission (I think its war of attrition) where I have no battleline units, and they just put a battle line unit in my deployment zone and score 20 points easy. Have you had any issues with this? its literally so easy for them to do. I am considering putting a 5 man squad of immortals in reserves for 70 points just so I can drop them somewhere turn 5 if they try that and stop them... Thoughts? Thanks again if you see this!
You would have to deploy any reserves that started off the table by turn 3 latest. Though that is a good point, you could make an active attempt at destroying all of your opponents battleline
So if u see it's coming u can stage and score less until the end of 3rd round, so u would have more resources to score at the end. Basically detachment benefits from killing opponents on objectives. Another option to take 5 immortals and save CP for rapid ingress so u can accomplish it or deny putting them in/behind ruins in NML
Maybe I missed your explanation, and I might be wrong about scorched earth, but couldn't you burn the objective in no mans land (that you controlled) and score an additional 5? I was also curious, if anyone caught his explanation, why did you not cleanse turn 5?
So he started to burn t4 I believe and then when he came to t5 the objective was burned therefore taken off the board, and unable to cleanse the burnt object. I made a mistake too in my t4 burn in go that I should have put the mvb on center objective so I would score burn and still hold 2
Im very new to 40k since Oct this year. I am way to damn aggressive. I keep thinking move the DDA and blast something, get those LHD into the mix sooner. But again any sign of bait and I bite the hook. It's my biggest downfall 😂 Love these videos, keep em coming
Doomstalker is not so good outside CC, u would probably use him the same way as triarch stalker just push forward hitting on 3 on obj or with heavy. CCB + destroyers already have a giant footprint so it's a big chance u won't have access to reroll ones. Imo take two units of tomb blades instead which make u secondary play better I like the idea of CCB + scarabs
Hey, could I ask your advice, I'm up agasint Soul forge warpack soon which has the +1 to wound detachment rule. The Silent kings aura of ignore all modifiers within 6" does it ignore this detachment rule for units inside of the 6"?
Yeah it works like this, TSK aura ignores all dice modifiers on any unit within (so only need a tiny part of a unit in), so if you are shooting a unit of his and your unit is in range of the aura it would ignore the +1 to wound because that is a modifier on your dice rolls. There is more to the rule but hope that helps. To be clear it doesn't turn off his units in range, it just turns it off for any of your units in range that would normally be effected by the modifier

@@zestfulzest4394you're not right it's from the 9th edition rules

Thank you for this great videos. Did the doomsday ark fire at all up to turn 4? If not. Why?
Nothing too shoot lol

Do you review army lists? @PNW 40K
Probably will in the future!
Thoughts on Ophydians instead of Praetorians? 20p cheaper and have dev wounds. Still have DS and 10inch move.
I think Ophydians are very playable right now

@Willneverpostavid thanks for your response, so he would still get the +1 to wound agasint my units but he can't add to any of my rolls
So u couldn't deny his natural expansion on turn one with sacrificing tomb blades?
Correct had like 20 oc on their
