Where would you say screening units fit into this? I've been having great success with a couple taurox with catachan bum-rushing my opponent's front line. they aren't on primary, never live long enough for secondaries, and only Straken deals significant damage.
In the context of this video, "jail" units aren't a fundamental part of the guard kit. They're useful to have and can gum up the opponents' works but an army can function fine without them. As Guard our primary mission takers also tend to work as screens for the damage dealers, so that's more about playing tactically rather than building your army.
reporting for duty , Sir o7 🥇orders at the start for 3/4 of army , units will be deleted 🥈is dak dak dak , we are a shooting army 🥉redundancy , if 1 unit has a job , 2 will do it better , but 3 will get it done
Great video as always Mordian. Agree with these rules. I wonder if there is a hidden rule within these rules about contingency and redundancy to enable a player to pivot and react if plan A doesn’t work due to contact with the enemy?
A good video on general and gives me a few pointers. My question is how do Mortar Teams not generate Lethal Hits? They are Regiment so they would trigger the Combined Regiment rule.
@@NoobandTheCapyall I have are field ordinance batteries. I could drop the 10 man infantry squad and 5 of the scions which would give me enough for fob
@@B4D4617f having used scout sentinels extensively I can confirm that your opponents will rarely let you reinforce the whole three man. Better to just use it early on a 20 man infantry squad.
When i look at the win lists from recent gt tournaments i see that there is no indirect at all. But other 3 gold rules are there. So probably indirect is something not so obvious.
Did you just...? Was that a...? Damn, I knew you were British, but a Carrry On reference? At this time of year? At this time of day? In this section of UA-cam? Localised entirely within a Mordian Glory video?! Huh...didn't have that on my bingo card.
Thank you general, but it is with great glee I must inform you that I will not be following these and will do 3 baneblades
LOL!
But that's just the secondary game, what about the rest?
A totaly valid strategy. Have a nice day
33 barrels of hell ready sir!
One for each of the mid-board objectives!!
Me just getting back into playing 40k. "It's role is I think it looks cool."
Two baneblades and TWO MORE baneblades.
one BAAAANEBLADE in each quadrant. Done
Build me an army worthy of Mordian

Chaos is listening too :-)

One I know with the guard is "take 2" so if one fails, you got one more to pick up the slack, its why double dorn works so well.
What would you recommend for secondaries now that scions are required to be 10 man squads?
Do one for Old World (especially dwarfs)

Only if you have LOS to the target, then you would. Firing indirect you won't.
Full Leman russ all the way.
At smaller games (1k, 1500), is it fair to just cut these numbers in half? Ex) 3 armored fists, 1 basilisk, 1 stormtrooper squad
Could I get some feedback on my 2k list?

pretty good! maybe add some atilery like a field ordnance instead of one Infantry squad?
I'd split the scions into 2 five mans and the scout sentinels into 3 groups of 1 if you can!
@@JaybirderinoI really would like to do reinforcements strat on the squadron of 3 scout sentinels. I think I will drop the scions down to a 5 man.

Is putting a Commissar with a squad of Scions decent? They can only issue Fix Bayonets! and Duty and Honour!

on dense terrain sets bullgryn act as pseudo-indirect (you can charge at what you cant see)
