    We try the Ironstorm Spearhead with an armoured company of Ultramarines versus a Monster Mash of Tyranids. Tak test drives the Ironstorm Spearhead detachment for the first time with a list mostly comprised of dreadnoughts and tanks, including the Astraeus. Mubin has both Norns, the Emissary and Assimilator, in his Nidzilla Crusher Stampede list.
    Warhammer 40k in 40m 2,000 point big guns versus big claws. 9 models per force. Thank you to Games Workshop for early access to the Space Marine codex so we could get this battle out to our viewers.

      Very true. The army can struggle against armour, but has a field day with infantry of all types (in my experience). Both Norns have good shooting; Assimilator has solid melee. Heirodules are great, but all these are in the realm of 300 points. Hierophant is fantastic but a huge cost. Old One Eye is really our best melee damage dealer at 140.
      That said, Zoanthropes put in work, and T-Fexes are TERRIFYING. Anything remotely competitive and I’m fielding both in force to back up my melee Battleline.

      @@YourLocalInquisator sorry but this is next to impossible, Literally my best friend plays tson, and I play Tyranids as one of my main factions. and I play "good" monster lists comparred to this.
      Tson is absolutly one of the best armies against this. Tson can just shoot these things of the table before they even reach you.
      Given we played only one game with this matchup against a monster list and it was before the last dataslate update, and it might be more fair now. But tyranids monsters didn't change since then. Same as you saw here Tson can easily kill the three nearest models every turn easily and kill them and kite them all before they ever reach a valuable target.
      Since then I played with monster against ironstorm, deathguard and even the new votann. all able to shoot every last monster to death before turn 5, even with 10 giant monster that are T11 you dont stand a chance. Maleceptors are the only thing that can survive reasonably well for the points, but sadly again dont do any damage in melee even when they get there..
      and when I then play Vanguard or swarm I can not believe why I even bother making monsters work when I can literally do the same thing and be in my opponents face turn 1 and keep them occupied with SO many models turn after turn that I just win with a lead so great because my opponent literally is unable to play the game.
      (I guess thats why I also play "weaker lists" like mosnters..)

    Serious question: How come there are 0 ruins on this board? Seems like 10th basically requires 4-8 pieces of full LOS blocking terrain (and with large monsters that means ruins) but often play on doesn't have any? Makes a big difference to first turn and who has more shooting. I'm actually asking if it's like a design choice for you guys or any other thoughts. Love the video! Love your plays!

      we actually treated all buildings as Ruins and LoS blocking but we also still need space for the monsters to get around and it's hard to COMPLETELY high 9 big Tyranids so unfortunately some were going to get shot. Same goes with the SM, if anything they had LESS LoS blocking terrain in comparison

      ​​​@@hellcyte5259our antitank units are sadly pretty hard to get ahold of right now. Haruspex is pretty good at it, but good luck finding one. They are right though, pretty much every nid unit needs a Strength boost, a point drop, some (screamer killer) need invulnerable saves or FNP, and most pre-codex changes need to be reversed in general.

    As someone who's only experience with actual tabletop 40K is this channel, it feels like detachments like Crusher Stampede, that is so dependent on getting the first turn and getting close before they lose models before they can even literally do anything (thereby losing those points, especially considering ammunition count isn't a thing, so it isn't like the other team is using up a limited resource in exchange for eliminating those models before they can have any impact on the table), should have some kind of rule or ability that gives them a higher chance of winning initiative and going first.

  • @TheLofren
    @TheLofren 7 місяців тому +1

    the only reason nids lose and lose and lose is that while lascannons went from s9 to s12 (keeping them at 3+ against light tanks and 4+ against heavy tanks) the venom cannon stayed at s9 making it impossible for them to keep up the only ranged weapons they have that can match it now are the focused witchfire which is mounted on a slow and fragile frame or the rupture cannon which is mounted on a very expensive frame and incredibly unreliable
    The same thing happened to many of their weapons but the lascannon vs the venom cannon is the clearest most direct example (the bright lance, the eldar equivalent for example went up like the lascannon)
    In return, nids got their melee antitank way stronger so they could take tanks out in melee, however their toughness didn't go up to match the other factions so they can't actually reach into engagement (for example in 9th a t7 redemptor dread got upgraded to t10, but a t7 carnifex went up only to t9)
    In general the whole nid index and codex seems written by someone who chose to follow the 10th edition mantra of things being tougher while not getting stronger but every other index was written by people who just made everything stronger and also tougher
