I like to say the Tyranids have a single weakness holding them back from consuming the entire galaxy, a weakness the empire is adapt at exploiting: They don't have enough named characters.
The problem with tyranids is if they win there's no story to be had unlike orks which are funny, or necrons who has some surprisingly interesting characters.
@@jessISaRicePrincess that's not entirely true, I'd say octarius war was a good example of tyranids winning and it being interesting. Sure we don't know the specific tyranid that did that one thing etc. And they'll be absorbed back into the force of nature that is Tyranids. But I think of tyranids as a character constantly evolving and adapting to topple its enemy and feed. That's my opinion also the imperium is boring lol
@@Avusui the tyrinids are more boring tbh. All the other factions have strengths and weaknesses that keep eachother in check but tyrinids adapt to everything and have rumors of having the galaxy completely surrounded. If it was just one front or if they didn't adapt nearly as well maybe. Idk compared to all the other factions tyrinids are just boring when compared. Then again I kinda dislike the whole hive mind army bug trope in scifi.
@@jokerman9623 fair enough! I like the unstoppable force that is the Tyranids, I can understand them being boring but not to me personally. They do have a big weakness tho which is after the battle they need time to suck up all the resources and are vulnerable. To me Tyranids are the force of nature adapting to the environment and taking over. Ive always been a sucker for green as well as slivers from MTG. My 2nd favorite would be Orks 100% cause I just love their energy lol its like no other in my opinion.
No plot armor choices
The Ultramarines have a fun and unique cast of characters, including Titus, Tightus, and Captain Tiitous
Don't forget Rear Admiral Tightarse. He's my favourite, for reasons that I think it prudent not to go in to. So to speak.
you forgot the patron saint of the smurffs.
Matt ward and Matt ward's super plot armor that has its own plot armor, that has three back up suits of plot armor on and bolter po rn
How dare you not mention the (self-proclaimed) greatest swordsman in the galaxy... Cato Sicarius!
lmaoooo
what about I, Cato Sicarius
"More choices than your entire HQ line"
dear god that hurt
More hqs than thousand sons have usable units
More choices then harlequins
@@deathknizzle This aged badly. TS are great again.
@@fozzilla123 still only 5 sets
Necrons:
Troops: Warriors, Immortals
HQ: 8 unique characters, lord, overlord, catacomb command barge. 4 crypteks, total, 15.
We have WAY to many HQ units, not enough troops units.
"NPC factions" that did make me chuckle.
>NPC factions
this is the easiest bait to use
To be fair, it really only applies to Tau. So Tyranid players can cheer up!
He’s not lying
Ew.
It did persuade me to expel a proper chuckle myself good sir, indeed indeed
"Who doesn't love the Imperial Guard?"
Games Workshop.
To much truth, m8.
Weird, cuz they seem to want Guard players to have to buy a lot of them.
This aged badly. Autowounding on 6's from 90 Lasgun shots is a lot of love lol
@Uncky Hitlor You're deploying wrong. Or its Eldar.
@@fozzilla123 or they have any ap whatsoever which is most armies nowadays
13:00 There is a slight error with the Eversor. It's not 'Kill everyone, hopefully the target'. The target *is* everyone.
When no one is left alive, then it is stealth
@@americankid7782 Nobody gonna see if nobody is alive to see.
no bodies for the guards to see? Oh, I thought you said no guards to see the bodies!
This is the funniest shit from all the videos. Thank you
GW: "let's make Night Lords all about leadership manipulation"
Also GW: "Let's make the morale phase useless!"
their rumour's make them look decent at least :P
One day all there phases will be morale checks
half the time I forget morale phase exists
@@TheBirdMan9142 same for me since I am a tsons player
The morale phase is weird, it either matters a LOT, or not at all. To be fair, GW seems to be making some sort of last gasp to make it relevant again. A lot of things have lost fearless aura, for example GSC Patriarch. It's now down to a much worse "ignores combat attrition modifiers" effect.
"One of the funniest things about genestealers is- oh, no, nevermind. He's run off with it..."
I died 🤣
memestealer lol
of course you died - your gene got stolen
Have you tried turning of and on angin
Auspex Tactics: Robot Goriilaman
Me: That's a funny way to say Rowboat Girlyman.
Excuse me?? It’s Rawboot Gullyman.
His name is Rub me off Gorillaman you uncultured swine
yea Rowboat Girlyman. is the one i always use , that and rowboat gully man
You guys need to go back to school. You're not pro pronouncing Realbank Garbageman correctly.
Rawbutt Gooillyman
"There are Xenos invading!"
"Oh F$%&"
"But we have Astartes coming in as reinforcement!"
"Thank the Emperor!"
"They're Grey Knights!"
"Oh F$%&"
Wait how would they even know that’s bad?
@@AdeptKing because in the 40k verse if you know grey nights exist your gonna get killed
“But we are kriegsmen.”
@@Kiwio654 Yeah, but the guardsmen won't know that until they start getting slaughtered.
@@mapleflag6518 *hehe boiii* - kriegsman
This video is just a half-hour of pure, unfiltered, British deadpan. Imagine yourself just sitting in a pub in Bristol nodding over a Magners while some bloke drones on about Harlequins and Space Marines.
Love it.
I mean that's how I spend most of my Friday nights.
As someone who lives in Bristol, I could see this happening.
The only thing inaccurate here is that you'd be *BLAM*ed instantaneously for drinking Magners and not Thatchers (pronounced "fatchers")
@@filmcameras4evr45 go to thekla painted up like a tau
As an american I barely understood what you said
Never has a better description of xenos races been uttered than “NPC factions.”
With tyranids: "it's not a mold line! It's a carapace ridge!"
Absolutely lol
"Don't worry about the huge amount of dishes to clean honey i'm on it, go relax, watch a tv show, read something maybe"
*proceeds to don earbuds and enjoy half an hour of undisturbed memery*
Nice.
It really sounds like the person you described was being sarcastic and/or passive-aggressive lol
@@hansmatheson5976 wtf no. It's just that if you don't want your household to become a barn you gotta do chores and usually I love having something good to listen to while I do them but usually youtube has more garbage or is stuff that requires a lot more attention than what obe can spare while doing chore, so having half an hour of good, easy to digest content to listen can make it more enjoyable so you can have a bit of fun while being productive.
Heck my gf literally told me to relax and leave half the dishes for her to do in the morning so I stopped the video when I got to the part of the Thousand Sons and spared the rest to keep company while sweeping the floor this morning.
Also the huge amount of dishes is kinda normal for us since we are Italian and we cook like stereotypical Italians do.
PSA: sharing chores is a fundamental part of having a functional relationship even if it's bothersome and if you can find something that makes it better you absolutely should do that.
@@JoKad17 Really putting in the work to make your relationship work huh?
Good on you!
@@hansmatheson5976 He wasn't being sarcastic, just descriptive.
I love how it's basically become law in the fandom to always refer to the Ultramarines 1st Captain as "I, Cato Sicarius"
*Night Lord:* "We specialise is fear!"
*Black Legionarie:* "Religous fanatics, mind altered super soldiers, xenomorphs, terminators and fungus cockneys being famously easy to scare."
Exactly XD
Fundus Cockneys 😂😂😂
Those fungus cockneys have a low enough leadership that somehow they do actually suffer it easily
@@unintentionally_edgy5867 unlike nercrons, Ld 10 for everything lol.
don't you mean fungus Millwall fans?
"a lot of the blood angels are still coming to terms with the fact its a dice game. sometimes you can get unlucky" made me snort.
Me everytime I'm trying to charge my 20 Death Company Marines with jump packs and failing the rolls because I don't have Lemmy with them XD
I love the idea of the Orks keeping the Emperor alive through sheer belief just because they want something to shoot at.
De Emperah, dats da big golden boss innit? Bet he's a zoggin good scrap.
The traditional Auspex cadence and deadpan delivery combined with the memes is literally peak comedy. Howling.
Talking about war crimes in the 40k Universe is like talking about culinary crimes comitted in Chuck E Cheese.

"Thou shall not refer to the Sisters of battle as 'Bolter Bitches' , nor shall thou approach them during their time of 'red rage' unless thou wishes to be first reaching orbit without the aid of a shuttle." - Codex Astartes

I want to congratulate Auspex, because he is getting an official terrain named after hime: *the Auspex Shrine!*
"You definitely couldn't kitbash these from regular intercessors."
How did you deliver this line straight 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I want to see another April fools model review like the Irritatintator. That was so good
He did something kind of similar with Primaris Gamebreakors
"Always nice to have some crusading knights around we don't have to judge in the context of real world history"
Lmao
"I think that's all of them..."
No, you missed one.
Turns out I was spot on, eh? :)
@@richmcgee434 Damn right fam
@Ban this youtube Leave no dwarf behind
ROCK AND STONE. brother!
rock and stone
16:30 ironically, plague marines are the happiest faction potentially in the entire Galaxy. Nurgle actually loves them, which isn’t common for chaos gods. They also arnt in any pain. Becoming a Nurgle daemon or plague marine is genuinely the most positive thing you can hope for in 40k
nurgle sucks
Yeah they kind of die if they are seperated from the warp
Except for maybe joining the T'au and getting to one of the 1st Phase Septs (these septs are better defended most of the time)
@@morrisevans4615 unless your an Ethereal or a part of the Farsight Enclave your going to be living under a brutal regime that mind controls the population and treats non-Tau as second class citizens. (Granted, this is way better than anything else in 40k but still sucks compared to real life)
@@peenyyt4921 literally everyone dies in 40k. Although I agree that their “happiness” is just an illusion because at all times they are in a dream like state.
The funny thing is that the Eversor assassin is more true to the source of the word assassin than the others, being the ḥašīšī who went about and did very public murder missions.
"Who doesn't love the Imperial Guard?" Games Workshop, apparently. **sad gas mask noises**
Hey, we did get plastic krieg (for slightly cheaper than Forgeworld prices) and Gaunt’s Ghosts (for more than $10 per model)
@@FunkBastid Guard also got points hikes despite being one of the bottom-performing armies in the game. New rules only apply to Cadian regiments. Plastic Krieg is nice (though I would have preferred if they kept the same body proportions as FW) but you have to be able to play with it, too.
*sad Rambo noises*
It's almost as if we exist to lose so the Sphess Mahreens could swoop in. Because obviously there's as many Marines as there is Guardsmen.
@@randomkrieger2625 what lol? Have you like read Cadia blood or krieg or anthrjnf. This is such a corny and overplayed mene
Auspex : *Mentions Skitarii, shows and DESCRIBE a Kataphron*
Me : *binharic screeching*
6:17 I recall hearing that the reason space wolves having 'wolf' so much in their naming of everything boils down to 'Yeah the units have unique names in the native Fenrikan language but since no one in the Empire is going to take the time to learn it, everyone just says wolf over and over again" So it's not that the space wolves are un-creative in their naming, it's more so everyone else just making fun of them because THEY don't want to take the time to learn their actual names and the space wolves don't want to take the time to correct them.
I love that that's the in universe reason for the naming convention. Then you realize actual game designers/authors decided it would be fine to just to replace every adjective and noun with the word 'wolf' 😂
Correct, nobody cares about the space wolves. And nobody should.
so literally same reasoning why historical scandinavian folk is majority of time refered to as Vikings, but there was and still is so many great names ;)
The space wolves are incredibly uninspired...
@@genericprofile2381ok tts magnus
"All your most important bits" Just not the head, the higher the rank the less you need head protection.
‘Gender neutral paradise’ gave me a good chuckle. Also, as a Deathwatch player… fair.
5:46 The only problem with that meme is that Sanguinius had foreseen his death by Horus, and that only by his death would the Emperor have the will to kill Horus.
gw pours all of their resources into making more primaris marines, yet it ironically seems that harlequins only have eight units and have such a high win rate
To be fair that makes sense. The Astartes already signed up to shoot a lot of things: Eldritch nightmare beings, alien hive minds, cockney fungus, each other, etc. I'd draw the line at elf murder clowns too tbh.
Very well done. And I particularly enjoyed the TTS references.
EDIT: And as a Blood Angels player since 1987 I should very much like to point out that we enjoy tomato juice so very much that we sometimes get a bit too enthusiastic and spill a bit as we drink it so quickly. It is most definitely NOT human blood. So any random disappearances or exsanguinated corpses found in our areas of operation are purely coincidental.
That was great! Auspex Tactics is usually something I watch because it's rather serious, detailed, and a hobby I enjoy, with just enough humor snuck in to keep it from becoming boring, so this much more funny, sarcastic jaunt through the meme mines of 40k was a wonderful little change.
Is it a meme mine because they have been beating the same dead horse for decades as if it was full of gold
That was probably the best faction breakdown I've heard, because of course in the grim darkness of the far future there is only memes
And the laughter of dark gods
The whole blood angels bit had me cracking up
"NPC Factions" made me laugh and feel agony at the same time.
Also now I actually want to know what painting things blue does for orks.
It's plot armo--luck, I meant to say luck. Makes the bearer lucky. Coincidentally, Ultramarines have a suspiciously low casualty count against Orks. . .
@@alexanderhoclippiunus7644 Well that just explains everything at once LMAO
One of the best things about 40k is that the line between canon and meme is so vague.
The Ali-G reference is EXACTLY what I have been telling people that ask why space marines are coloured so.
Loved the video!
Kinda wished you’d mentioned the Zoat by name, then immediately moved on to another faction without saying anything about them.
Just wait until the Zoat-riding Squat cavalry show up.
your snark is so fantastic man, im sure we all would love to hear a bit more of it sprinkled into your normal vids, LOVE your channel as always amazing work man
your voice's tone and its delivery rythm strikingly resemble that of any random airline pilot... I was getting ready to fasten my seatbelt at any time XD
That Inquistion one made me both cry and laugh. It's sad monke spam is basically the only real viable option now.
Ah yes, the theme of the Blood Angels chapter: failing clutch rolls. I could set my watch to it.
"Nun-dam wing". This was comedy genious.
Had a really stressful day, this video helped me chill and laugh. Thanks, good vid
Hope all is well Jay!
This was brilliant man. So much work must've gone into this.
Haha the “Tell my wife, I miss her” Kataphron quote was great.
As much as I love getting all my GW news and updates from you, this was a great video! I hope it was as fun for you to make as it was for me to watch.
Mr Auspex, you've outdone yourself!
*Mr. Tactics. Auspex is his first name.
I see you forgot about Abbadons arms, not easy since he lost them a long time ago.
This was hilarious, the fact your channel is usually delivered very straight laced made it so much better.
Never thought I'd feel the need to WATCH a full Auspex Tactics video. XD
I normally have them on in the background but with the images and number of slides, I felt this needed to be watched.
I can't wait for the Fabled Gaurd Codex to make Sly Marbo an incomparably powerful God
Incredible video Auspex! I haven't even start playing 40k yet but I cant help but watch all of your videos
I need that new Primaris tank you showed us. Probably would blow itself up but totally worth it.
This was so much better than I could have guessed. The monotone matter of fact tone sells it. Good job!
One does not simply "meme" the Tyranids.
When a shark is trying to eat you, I doubt the first thing running through your head is "I hope someone memes this"!
Same goes for the Tyranids.
@@austinstewart7601 and yet Tyberos is a thing
username checks out. nice!
More like TyraNerds! Ha
"It's a deeply thematic thing." Definitely wins the prize for best line + delivery.
A primaris lieutenant released as this video came out.
This is an amazingly clever episode. I loved every moment of this.
Night lords "what if we made our armor look ridiculous, so people think we are psychopaths?"
"What, like growing skin on top of it?"
"No, that wouldn't support the evil economy _or_ the idea that we're total psychopaths, well get some locally-sourced skin instead! And some bat wings. Bitches love bat wings"
Had some good laughs with this one. Having good fun with the silliness of things is always good.
Custodes oiling each other up and posing.
Brilliant video btw, the sheer density of the memery was impeccable.
I think this is my favourite upload from Auspex. So much fun in this one.
This was amazing. Thanks for making my Friday much more enjoyable. And yes I am building Dark Angels, and as soon as I mention it, someone pipes up about how I'm building a Chaos army.
Honestly the delivery is everything. Great fun
Holly crap. Nailing it every year!! Just do these from now on!!!
Everybody gangsta till coffin start walking killed me great work! 😅
The gant mould line joke hit me too hard 😂
Thanks for this, I love your “humour” videos
23:42 love how a literal demon helped the blood angels so they’d survive, giving the demon the chance to kill the BA
I watch all your vids, they’re informative, real, and just all about this hobby I love. The best vids are when you deliver truth with such delicious satire. It’s so good and hilarious. AND REAL. For the Emperor. LOL
It is weird that melee combat has become such a staple skill on the battlefields of the future, isn't it? Even in close-quarters urban settings, you're better served with a short-barreled rifle or pistol than a machete, and most armies just give you a combat knife, almost as an afterthought.
Its sort of justified by making body armor better than ranged attack, but of course its nonsense, and only really justified with the rule of cool.
Fantastic video. Had me laughing out loud. Thank you!
One of your best videos yet. Well done.
Finally the faction breakdown I really needed.
Finally a useful guide
Thoroughly enjoyed the video! The one bit I was surprised about was no mention of the Custodes being even more terrifying when they're shirtless and covered in lube.
This was Brilliant Auspex! 😂
Loved it Well done 👏
As someone who played 40k years ago and never really got into much of the lore, this is an amazing overview of all the factions! Well done and many thanks haha
i guess when you are straight to the point and fact driven as Auspex you meme twice as hard the one day a year you can. and why Primaris cant get in old transports is so dumb. "sorry you have to many organs you can get in". i know its to not invalidate firstborns but maybe balance the firstbborns to keep them relevant?
Edit: dogematas, the only reason they havent been fired for keeping up Vandires legacy is their effectiveness
Its probably to keep primaris vehicles relevant. The land raider is way cooler than anything the primaris have for vehicles.
@@sturm9087 and so is the drop pod.
I picked up the Black Templars box to start my first ever army because I love my xenophobic, fanatical super soldiers and I read about their love of the Crusader pattern Land Raider. Wanted to get one only to discover that the Primaris can't even use it.
I have no words.
@@FireTalon24 I had a literally identical experience
Im not a Primarus hater, but I think they definitely should have just released them as updated model kits instead of a whole new army.
"When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem begins to look like a nail"
Real talk though, that's an unironically good quote to come out of this.
@IntrepidTit If it’s so common, I probably would have heard it prior to the writing of this comment.
@IntrepidTit I am, indeed, (unfortunately) a stategoer. Arizonan, to be specific.
The video that I didn't know I needed, but it was very needed indeed. What a nice piece of comedy. Nice
SUPERB! Brilliant video 😂 funniest thing I've seen in a LONG time! Well done sir 😊
"Incompetence wears Terminator Armour" I've never read more truer words
One of these for space marine chapters would be hilarious 😍
Damn, how did I miss this video a year ago. Absolutely brilliant content!!
After spending the last few weeks watching a tonne of vids whilst spending a few hours a day driving for work, this is a gem to find 😂 love your work mate!
Really great funny video 👍 I never got so much laugh with a 40k topic 😂 I think my preferred one is about Abaddon incompetency for failing 12 times, maybe he brought a black cat the 13th Time ? 😁
I play Iron Hands, and I laughed at the "head off" joke. We are not all cantankerous asscracks.
As a fellow iron hands i agree brother, at least ferrus now leads the legion of the damned.
This is a nice video to add to the armory.
Grade A, prime content here. Excellent work Auspex
You're deep in the lore when you start justifying the Dark Elves actions in terms of preserving their species from..nom
