The apothecary in gravis is an auto include with eradicators because the eradicators have the ability to re-roll the hit, wound and damage roll against monsters and vehicles. So you fish for 6’s on the hit roll. And if you do fire discipline enhancement in gladius detachment, and under the devastator doctrine, you crit hits on 5 and you will get sustained plus one. And when you run a brick of 6 of them, you can have two multi melted and 4 melts rifles, which is 8 shots. So that’s how you run it. Hope that helps explain why people like it so much.
I believe he's said in the past that he mainly only runs the actual Black Templar detachment so it definitely doesn't thrive as much there as it does in Gladius, I can see why he's never gotten the appeal lol
@8:20 you cant take wounds on a character if his squad is still alive wounds HAVE to be allocated to non character models first, with the sole exception of precision attacks, where the wound can be allocated to a character of the opponents choice instead of the bodyguard
Fun nitpick: "Ancient" here is an archaic term for the standard, not the armor. Google says the root was "ancien" from which we got both "ensign" and "ancient" as terms for a flag/banner.
6:55 I like to bring him with Aggressors. He gives Lethal Hits on EVERYTHING. So attach him to a Squad of 6 Aggressors with Marneus Calgar? Kills Everything.
1. Eradicators make 8 shots, not 6 ;) 2. Autoinclude in detachment, when it gets crit hits on 5s thanks to enhancement 3. You can not place wounds on character models before bodyguard unit, so champion of the Emperor cheated a bit ;)
@TheDreadGazeebo Still officially no. Wounds received are decided by the receiver, not the dealer. Once attached, they are considered part of the unit absolutely, receiving the unit's benefits and of course giving their own benefits. Also why wound placement is widely considered a core part of the gameplay - it can remove your unit from both shooting or melee
I wouldn't call it shenanigans. He played the Gladius detachment wrong for months, and was visibly gobsmacked when he was corrected live in a video that featured a UA-camr who actually focuses on gameplay.
Costs so many points for that though. If you attach him to 6 Eradicators, give him that enhancement, that's now 310 points for 8 melta shots a turn. Plus they barely move at all, so then you're looking at a Land Raider to bus them into range, and now you've got 25%+ of your army paying for 8 melta shots a turn...
@@Chris-lr2qb8 shots that reroll to hit, wound, and damage, lethal hits and sustained hits on 5 plus (so it's probably closer to 10 shots/hits) and they're D6+2 damage on each hit, rerollable. They can melt basically any vehicle or monster. Tournament players wouldn't have taken them if the combo wasn't worth it.
@@Chris-lr2qb It's 110 points to more than double their output on average, you're effectively getting a slightly more than a second unit for almost half the price, that is not a bad deal at all. Not to mention that these shots are averaging you 23 wounds on the toughest targets without invulns, and that's before melta 2 or the damage reroll, that's close to one-shotting anything other than a knight or titan in a single turn, it's a combo absolutely worth building an army around, it's 8 melta shots with almost all the best special rules in the game packed onto them. Throw them in a land raider redeemer, or if you play ultramarines you can take ventris to give them deep strike, or calgar so you can advance and shoot, if not, they can still use strategic reserves and with 18" range there's only so far your opponent can hide from the table edge. A unit costing a lot of points is not a problem if they make good use of those points.
I haven't been able to bring myself to buy any characters, except a Terminator Captain because he was $15. But so far I've kitbashed a Lieutenant, Chaplain, Librarian, Apothecary, Ancient, and a Techmarine, just using regular Space Marine bodies. Paradoxically I've gotten more enjoyment from kitbashing the characters than I would have gotten from the prebuilt ones, but the prebuilt ones are like four times as expensive.
Join the Grey Knights. You can easily kitbash 5 characters out of a singular terminator box. Ok, maybe less since Ancient and Apothecary are not characters in the GK range anymore, but still ! And you get a million extra bits on top !
@@EruCoolGuy Lol all my power swords are from half a box of Grey Knights. And I turned their Warding Staffs into iron halos. I have great respect for the chapter but at this point I've almost got 2k points of regular space marines and I'm trying to convince myself that it's enough.
the eradicator apothocary combo isnt for lethal hits its in gladius task force, with the fire discipline enchancement you get lethal AND sustained 5s+6s which is an absolutly insane damage amp over not having either lethal or sustained at all combine that with eradicators reroll hits vs vehicles or monsters, meaning you can fish for the 5s/6s the damage is also a brick of eradicators has 8 shots 4 dudes with melta rifles, 4 dudes with multimeltas to put it in perspective how much a jump in power this is 6 eradicators in melta range shooting a t12 2+ save model, will do around 18 damage on average 6 erads in melta range with the fire discipline apothocary will do around 41 damage THAT is why you take the apothocary with eradicators, its not for the black templar detachment, its not for the lethal hits its for lethal+sustained 5s
The Marshal is based on the special collector model that was packaged with the 3rd edition launch box. Eventually it was sold by itself as a variant captain. Then it was repackaged as a Black Templar Marshal (even though he had always been painted as a Black Templar).
I always smile well after watching your videos because of the way they suddenly and often amusingly end. I can't think of many other folks on youtube who manage to be entertaining after the video is over
Characters are alot of fun to build and paint, just wish they were like half the price, and the character attachment rules I'm still 50/50 on. I've painted like 5 Templar characters, an Apothacary, the Indomitus Chaplain, the Indomitus Captain but his shield was replaced by an old Templar chainsword so he's duel wielding swords which isn't a wysiwyg loadout but looks cool, Castellan Crowe but he was given a Templar shield and a Templar shoulder pad and was originally built by my friend to be a Deathwatch Templar Ancient for his Deathwatch army but later sold him to me and is now a Castallen or Lietenant with shield and power sword, and then the only model I converted myself which is the Black Templar Marshall whose pose I really like, I replaced his gun hand with a cool custom Templar shield I found and gave him the Crusaders helm from the upgrade sprue so he's technically a Captain with shield and power sword, that small group of characters is probably my favourite group of painted characters that I never use but love
I'm painting my Thousand Sons, and the Exalted Sorcerers are staring at me constantly. No paint, one of the most beautiful sculpts GW has ever done, with so many bits and cool things that can be any color, and I have no idea what I'm gonna do for them lol!
I 100% love your templar set, the paint job you did is fantastic and really captures the vibe. I try and try Im just not quite to that level yet lol but it's so inspiring and now Im gonna go buy more paints to help maybe practice some more.
The apothecary looks so awesome though! GW should really sponsor you, because every time I watch your videos, I want to start a whole new army to paint.
I found my old 3rd edition captain model a few months back and for a little change decided to paint him green. It was so much fun I play salamanders now.
7:00 I use him in 10 man bricks of heavy intercessors and run the siege detatchment. 6 heavy bolter shots as well as the 8 other guys all hitting on twos with lethal hits is great.
I've been meaning to use that Marshal model to kitbash a Dark Angels Master, their version of a captain in the lore (but not the rules, oddly enough). I get really into kitbashing and naming characters. It's the best part of 40k
@9:30 Jay saying "based on an old, old, OLD model" like why you gotta do me like that?!? That model was the special edition Captain in the 3rd Edition Starter box that I bought brand new... in 1998
Warhammer fun fact that idk if you know or not but ancients aren’t actually named that because the are old themselves or because the armor they wear is old (though they are usually veterans) it’s because the banners they carry are called ancients blew my mind when I found it out. It think it was from a podcast either AA or Lore Crimes
Personally I have kitbashed all my no named characters, I love the idea of customizing them to give them a certain personality in order to tell a story and to have something that is unique and special
I love characters. I have a whole bunch of Necron characters that i collected just to run them so theyre all pretty generic looking though. Im slowly but surely giving them all a makeover starting with my Skorpekh Lord who im kitbashing to be a Flayer King.
Captain in Gravis Armor + Ironstorm Spearhead detachment + The Flesh is Weak Enhancement. T6, 3+/4++, takes half damage, plus 4+ FNP. Actually an unkillable machine of a unit. I played this model once against a Stompa; the Stompa did not kill him in MELEE COMBAT. Holy moly do I love my Captain in Gravis Armor.
I am a custodes player, most of my characters are just troops with an extra cape that I've tried to distinguish in some way with a special base or heraldry. I do name all my custodes though, each is named after a soccer player that I got a red card for when I played Fifa with my brother.
With the Apothecary Biologis, don't attach to Eradicators. Attach to a unit of 6 Aggressors with Boltstorms. Flamestorm gauntlets don't benefit because they auto-hit, so no lethal hits. I play Ultramarines, so I also bring Uriel Ventris, so they can deep strike. 6 Aggressors with Boltstorm is 18 shots, rerolling wounds, plus 6xD6 fragstorms. Adding lethal hits, you're gonna start deleting stuff off the table.
The apothecary biologius dude wants to be in a Gladius Task Force with Storm of Fire enhancement. That way when you declare the Devastator Doctrine you get Sustains/Lethals on 5+ with AP-5 ignore cover Metas when you also us fire discipline Stratagem. I personally think it's better on 10 Hellblasters and a Lt because you get more shots but to each own
To clarify: the Wolf Priests of the 6th legion actually do use medicinal herbs to heal their battle brothers (complete with mortar and pestle) It's just that the Black Templars are too posh for traditional remedies
I like making characters for my chapter and if they kinda look like other famous characters well maybe that’s imitation is the best form of appreciation
I painted the cpt in gravis armor as a crimson fist just for a self serving project. I love him but still need a shoulder decal. I will prob just put an Imperial Fist one on as a template and paint it red.
Over many narrative games I've played against orks, my skitarii vanguard with transuranic arquebus has killed so many nobs that I gave him the title "nobslayer" and promoted him to a sydonian skatros.
I was hyped for another gravis character but biologis not doing anything apothecary was a massive letdown. If I have the room I’ll add to aggressor squad with Tor, at least then there’s a realistic chance his OC ability comes into play.
Biologis and a 6 brick aggressor squad is a way to go. Twin linked lethal hits is…not to be messed with.. And watching your friends face as they get mauled by just a 6 man squad is hella funny.
I've been wondering for a while now why you haven't painted up the Bayards revenge model! I would have thought that model jimmied your jams and flimed your flams.
Gravis Captain with Tannhauser's Bones, Gravis Captain ability halves damage, and Tannhauser's Bones halves damage again, so you end up quartering the damage.
This is very good, now do like me and have two of each, the old model and the primaris. you need the rest of the assassins, the eversor, the culexus and the callidus.
Since the 40K world has a lot of Latin names, it should be "Vin-di-car-ay". I think most people just forget the Latin influence, hence the mispronunciation... :)
I love characters and heroes in this game, 2 days ago i played against a friend with my Ork army, my beastboss killed all by himself my friends baneblade, it was epic
Apothecary Biologis is only really good in Gladius Strikeforce with the Fire Discipline enhancment. So you have Leathal hits, sustained hits and crits on 5+ when in dev doctrine
As an ork player we definitely have some fun heroes that feel auto include but only if you run the units. Like i wouldn't go out of my way to run a warboss in mega armor, but it l if i run a squad of meganobs, why not make them more brutal?! P.s. I name every model after I finish painting them and I'm just shy of 10k of orks 😀 it's a fun treat to myself and adds fluff to every battle
Newbish questions here. First quick background, I played 40k in the 3rd Edition Blood Angels. There is no local 40k community where I live to get a feel for the 10th edition. I'm open to playing other factions not just Blood Angels in fact I would prefer to go a different route for a different experience this go round. My painting skills are rather lacking, but I don't want to bring trash looking models to games. I'm considering Necrons because they look as though they would be easier to paint than most factions however, I was drawn to the appearances of Dark Angels with their dark green color palate and cool if not very useful in 3rd edition vehicle units. I'm drawn to the Cloaked Knights and dishonored faction lore cool factor of the Dark Angels. In terms of being able to field an army quicker and probably looking better I was considering Necrons. Any suggestions for someone who has been out of 40k since the 3rd edition? I'm open to pretty much anything besides horde type armies with excessive number of models to paint. I'm not a player that's married to current meta but would like a competitive army list for a newish player that doesn't require an insane number of minis.
I’m putting together my first 40k army, I’m doing raptors because I like their lore and the way they look lol. But I was wondering because they are a succession chapter of the ravenguard would I be able to use Kayvaan Shrike in my army?

Also good in firestorm as you can give him forged in battle to turn a miss into a six and the eradicators go to strength 10
I believe he's said in the past that he mainly only runs the actual Black Templar detachment so it definitely doesn't thrive as much there as it does in Gladius, I can see why he's never gotten the appeal lol
@@lizadon0740 never thought of that! Then I could wound dreadnoughts on 4s instead of 5s! Thanks for pointing that out!
He's now 70 points so probably worth it outside of gladius or firestorm.
If only he reads the comments
You have Black Templars? I had no idea
Did you know he also has Black Templars?
@8:20
you cant take wounds on a character if his squad is still alive
wounds HAVE to be allocated to non character models first, with the sole exception of precision attacks, where the wound can be allocated to a character of the opponents choice instead of the bodyguard

Once attached, they are considered part of the unit absolutely, receiving the unit's benefits and of course giving their own benefits.

Oh Jay, you goober. You cannot choose to take damage on a character that is part of an attached unit.
i was very confused at that part but maybe they just homebrewed a rule? prolly was just for fun.
Nah he just too busy hobbying to learn rules
but he’s the champion; the emperor’s champion
Makes me wonder if he pulled that shenanigan at the tourneys he's gone to 🤭
I wouldn't call it shenanigans. He played the Gladius detachment wrong for months, and was visibly gobsmacked when he was corrected live in a video that featured a UA-camr who actually focuses on gameplay.
Regarding the Biologus: he’s an autoinclude in gladius, you give him the enhancement for the sustained hits and crits hits on 5+
Now he’s a beast
Costs so many points for that though.

also a brick of eradicators has 8 shots
4 dudes with melta rifles, 4 dudes with multimeltas
to put it in perspective how much a jump in power this is
6 eradicators in melta range shooting a t12 2+ save model, will do around 18 damage on average
6 erads in melta range with the fire discipline apothocary will do around 41 damage
THAT is why you take the apothocary with eradicators, its not for the black templar detachment, its not for the lethal hits
its for lethal+sustained 5s

Good job man! 👍🏻 For a full John Blanche artwork army I suggest you to also paint the Old School Lieutenant with power axe! 😉

Could you plz make a short video about the nameplates on your minis? how do you create them?
We have a template made in Blender and then they are 3D printed in resin!
Captain in Gravis Armor + Ironstorm Spearhead detachment + The Flesh is Weak Enhancement. T6, 3+/4++, takes half damage, plus 4+ FNP. Actually an unkillable machine of a unit.
I played this model once against a Stompa; the Stompa did not kill him in MELEE COMBAT. Holy moly do I love my Captain in Gravis Armor.
Dude, I LOVE terminators in ancient armour.
The captain in gravis with some aggressors is pretty cool in the righteous crusaders, actually a brick of 6 of them is a pretty good punchy unit.
I love minor characters! Your terminator ancient is Probly my fav kitbash of 2024. Absolutely love everything about it!!
just finnished my own helbrecht last night, i looooved painting it and spent like 20+ hours on him xD
Insane Painting, I wish I have the time or the Skill you posess. Pls keep it up, great job!
I am a custodes player, most of my characters are just troops with an extra cape that I've tried to distinguish in some way with a special base or heraldry. I do name all my custodes though, each is named after a soccer player that I got a red card for when I played Fifa with my brother.
With the Apothecary Biologis, don't attach to Eradicators.
Attach to a unit of 6 Aggressors with Boltstorms. Flamestorm gauntlets don't benefit because they auto-hit, so no lethal hits.
I play Ultramarines, so I also bring Uriel Ventris, so they can deep strike.
6 Aggressors with Boltstorm is 18 shots, rerolling wounds, plus 6xD6 fragstorms. Adding lethal hits, you're gonna start deleting stuff off the table.
Beautiful looking army!
Awesome collection of characters, I want a Grimaldus figure and a new Techmarine figure just for my own painting pleasure!

I love the librarian in Phobos armor it’s my fave SM charecter, and the shadowseer is the charecter that peaked my interest in 40
Crimson Fists next, please.
Nah, gotta have Pretty Marines.
Just squint your eyes with an ultra marine video. Same thing.
I would like lamenters but crimson fists are cool
CRRRRIIIIIMMMMMMSONNNNN PPHHHHIIISSTSS
To clarify: the Wolf Priests of the 6th legion actually do use medicinal herbs to heal their battle brothers (complete with mortar and pestle)
It's just that the Black Templars are too posh for traditional remedies
I like making characters for my chapter and if they kinda look like other famous characters well maybe that’s imitation is the best form of appreciation
I painted the cpt in gravis armor as a crimson fist just for a self serving project. I love him but still need a shoulder decal. I will prob just put an Imperial Fist one on as a template and paint it red.
Where is the banner from the ancient coming from ? nice :)
(FYI you can allow wounds on characters unit :)
I never notice that Kings of War box in the background. Maybe a little love for that game?
Please can we have a studio tour Jay?
Love your paint jobs.
Over many narrative games I've played against orks, my skitarii vanguard with transuranic arquebus has killed so many nobs that I gave him the title "nobslayer" and promoted him to a sydonian skatros.
I LOVE making characters my own. Kitbashing them until they are unique.
Your og vindicare is just as cool. I’ve begged on live stream for you to compare them.
Thanks yer the best channel
I hope you do the same for the other armies :) A regular update now and then is pretty nice
Where did you get the name plates for your models? I love it.
The terminator ancient isn't as obscure as you think. The Blood Angels assault terminators kit came with bits to make one.
there is an anicent in terminator armour in the Blood angel assult termy box. Still avalible from GW
The Terminator ancient is in the Blood Angels Terminator Assault Squad box.
I was hyped for another gravis character but biologis not doing anything apothecary was a massive letdown. If I have the room I’ll add to aggressor squad with Tor, at least then there’s a realistic chance his OC ability comes into play.
Are you missing the black templar castellan? Coolest looking miniature out there!
Biologis and a 6 brick aggressor squad is a way to go. Twin linked lethal hits is…not to be messed with.. And watching your friends face as they get mauled by just a 6 man squad is hella funny.
For tall and narrow: just put a weighr under the base. 15 grams should do... A lead weight.
Im pretty convinced jay cheated when taking the wounds on his champion xD
Characters is my favorite thing kit-bashing them making up lore and what not
I've been wondering for a while now why you haven't painted up the Bayards revenge model! I would have thought that model jimmied your jams and flimed your flams.
Kingmaker is an awesome book, one of the best in 40k
Praying we get a variant or multi pose marshal when they get around to us in 10th. I've got a few unbuilt and I just cant bring myself to make them.
Gravis Captain with Tannhauser's Bones, Gravis Captain ability halves damage, and Tannhauser's Bones halves damage again, so you end up quartering the damage.
Use your gravis capt as a regular marshal so you can play him. They are the same base size
I've never heard anyone leave the E off the end of the Vindicare assassin except for you. Vin-de-CARE is how I've always heard it pronounced.
I think the E at the end should be silent
It sounds a lot better
This is very good, now do like me and have two of each, the old model and the primaris. you need the rest of the assassins, the eversor, the culexus and the callidus.
FYI you cant allocate Damage to a Character Model in an attached Unit (Core Rules Pg. 39 Leader Ability)

Speaking of admech, could you paint one model of em? We'd love to know your thoughts on the models and possible paint schemes!
My unique Hellblaster squad is all wearing phobos armour alonf with the Lt and Apothecary that joins them.
Jay, what’s the stuff on your apron? Is there a radiation badge on there?
Since the 40K world has a lot of Latin names, it should be "Vin-di-car-ay". I think most people just forget the Latin influence, hence the mispronunciation... :)
Make Raven Guard a real divergent, spaceman chapter and lightning claws will be good at the expense of other stuff.
I love characters and heroes in this game, 2 days ago i played against a friend with my Ork army, my beastboss killed all by himself my friends baneblade, it was epic
6:41 wait you don’t take the two multimers with that I’m pretty sure that 10 shot I could be dumb though
Apothecary Biologis is only really good in Gladius Strikeforce with the Fire Discipline enhancment. So you have Leathal hits, sustained hits and crits on 5+ when in dev doctrine
Yo show us ur ork army
As an ork player we definitely have some fun heroes that feel auto include but only if you run the units. Like i wouldn't go out of my way to run a warboss in mega armor, but it l if i run a squad of meganobs, why not make them more brutal?!
P.s. I name every model after I finish painting them and I'm just shy of 10k of orks 😀 it's a fun treat to myself and adds fluff to every battle
You can buy Terminator Ancient in Blood Angel Terminator box.
More Death Guatd, please.
Gotta get that army tabletop ready by the end of the year.
how are these amazing bases done?
Vidicare is the Latin verb for vindicate, hence the pronunciation in the audiobook is probably trying to sound like Latin
You should take ur gravis captain in a game alongside the gravis apothecary and 6 bolter aggressors
Newbish questions here. First quick background, I played 40k in the 3rd Edition Blood Angels. There is no local 40k community where I live to get a feel for the 10th edition. I'm open to playing other factions not just Blood Angels in fact I would prefer to go a different route for a different experience this go round. My painting skills are rather lacking, but I don't want to bring trash looking models to games. I'm considering Necrons because they look as though they would be easier to paint than most factions however, I was drawn to the appearances of Dark Angels with their dark green color palate and cool if not very useful in 3rd edition vehicle units. I'm drawn to the Cloaked Knights and dishonored faction lore cool factor of the Dark Angels. In terms of being able to field an army quicker and probably looking better I was considering Necrons. Any suggestions for someone who has been out of 40k since the 3rd edition? I'm open to pretty much anything besides horde type armies with excessive number of models to paint. I'm not a player that's married to current meta but would like a competitive army list for a newish player that doesn't require an insane number of minis.
Where did you get the name plates on the bases?
Hey Jay can you paint a grey knight please in your next space marine painting video. I would like to see your take on it. Love the videos !
I’m putting together my first 40k army, I’m doing raptors because I like their lore and the way they look lol. But I was wondering because they are a succession chapter of the ravenguard would I be able to use Kayvaan Shrike in my army?
You might have the apothecary from either a boarding patrol or the deathwatch combat patrol
