- First up, yes this is a long one! But a lot of new rules and a lot of chatting things through hopefully make it an interesting one!
Continuing the Pariah Nexus mission deck exploration, we have another run out for the Adeptus Mechanicus, hoping to capitalise on the recent rule changes in the balance dataslate up against Tyranids doing exactly the same thing!
The new rules changes have given both of these armies a sorely needed boost, and we wanted to see what would happen when the robot legions face off against the Bug swarm with changes all over the shop this is going to be an interesting one!
Chris is revving up for his first GT in the next month with the Ad Mech, fervently building up a LOT of extra units, but today we're working with Cawl, backed up by a bunch of Rangers and Vanguard, Breachers, Castellan robots, three Dunecrawlers and the rest!
Dan is back in charge of the Hive Mind, making the most of the new Synapse extra strength rules and running mostly a monster mash, with the inclusion of the Neurotyrant with his new pals the Zoenthropes! They've been feeling a bit on the weak side in our last couple of games, so let's see if this is enough to get Dan his very first win on the channel!
Pariah Nexus, 10th Edition, Warhammer 40,000, 2000 points. Let's boogie.
A bunch coming down the pipe - Chaos Space Marines debuting, Leagues of Votann debuting(!), more of our tournament prep to try and interact just a little bit with the meta, and the launch of our Memberships on UA-cam! We also might have a very exciting Age of Sigmar challenge coming up very soon! Make sure to be first in the know for what's dropping by subscribing here / @weirdwolfgames . or hitting us up on instagram to say hi!
With the recent balance data slate changes, we're seeing some underperforming armies on the up - Tyranids and Ad Mech included! Who are your best bets for winners out of the mission, rules and points changes? Our side we reckon Knights are winners!
Another amazing game.
Imperial Knights are definitely winners in the Dataslate and in Pariah Nexus. I took them to the Goonhammer Open Narrative Event and had a blast with them. Being a narrative event, the "do an action and still shoot" rarely came up but the ability to Kool-Aid Man through ruins effectively increased my threat range and made opponents more cautious.
The Broodlord gets the Genestealer unit ability ‘Vanguard Pedator’, so it could’ve re-rolled the customary 1
Toward the end (3:08:38), the Hydraulic Claw on the breachers is 2 attacks, strength 8, ap -2, damage 3. The profile you used was for the Arc Claw.
Long long game mate, thanks for the catch!
I wonder if you could have used Hypersensory Scillia to reactive move the Mawloc out of LOS of some of that shooting and kept it around for another turn. It would have cost you the ability to use Invisible Hunter at the end of the turn but at least it would have lived a bit longer
The Parasite naturally has stealth, so i feel like the enhancement would be better somewhere else
At our gaming club, the 'nerf admech' joke exists because we have only one admech player and he's a wee bit salty. So naturally, even when they're awful, we must always nerf admech.
That’s brilliant 😂
We're so back
Damn right!
The Tyranids have returned again, and want a rematch. Reading more into the rules.
Ole Dan is getting good with them! The latest rules changes gave them quite a lot more play, and he has some more good stuff coming! He is debuting a new army in our next bat rep which is going to be VERY cool! Thanks for watching as always fella.
@@WeirdWolfGames You're welcome. Watching the vids every match and to who wins that MG Strike Gundam. I'm going to read into how the dices are used, when I'm not too busy.
Haven’t watched the whole thing yet, so I’m not sure if you correct it/it comes up later, but I’m a fellow member of the Hive Mind and I have a couple things I noticed early in the game, as you did the Seeded Broods.
A 5-6 on the Mawloc’s roll for the Terror in the Deep also makes the effected enemy take a Battleshock test (you rolled one 5 on this activation).
The other thing (not sure if it applies because I’m not sure where the battlefield edge is) is that Lictors don’t have deep strike, so he would have had to have come in within 6” of the edge, not just outside of 9” from enemy units.
Was just chatting with Dan as this comment came in! Apologies for the deep strike blunder, hopefully didn’t affect the game too much, but absolutely noted on the 5+! Would have been handy.
@@WeirdWolfGames Wasn’t a huge deal, just wanted to make sure you utilize all of those big scary snake moves as much as you could! Great game!
Im so conflicted! Obviously the imperium is a wretched hive of gross and worthless, but the AdMech is so cool! I think i still root for the hungry good boys, but what a great battle report. Idk if the dunecrawler had something else in range, but it can fire its blast weapon at a different unit not in combat even though it is in combat. You just cant fire a blast weapon into anything in combat for whatever reason. For the Hive, i mean, for the Omnissiah, or...oh idk. Looking forward to more soon!
But the Imperium! What have they ever done wrong!
Ad mech are rad, the list Chris is writing up and building in the background is pure filth, it's so, so many models which no-one is looking forward to facing.. Thanks for watching as ever fella, much appreciated!
Why is he rolling his saves one by one? Example 01:20:00 and 01:31:50
Ah mate there could be a couple of reasons, we have a bit of a running joke on the channel about the power of single rolling and making all the rolls, but also could be a hangover from slow rolling to CP re-roll which we don't need to do anymore! Thanks for watching.
@@WeirdWolfGames Thank you for the reply. Cool video report.
Those robots are painted really well😆good game gentlemen👏🏻👏🏻
Btw just wondering if it's possible to put two robot squads, 1 in melee and 1 in blaster🤔just to make things like, you know, be like Legio Cybernetica🤖🤖
Hah! Thanks mate. Chris has only got a couple of ad mech games under his belt so I'm pretty sure there's some list development on the way, I'll pass on the note for the robots - we have a couple more on the shelf needing some paint!

praise the omnissiah
Admech player intentionally threw the game????
I don't think so mate, we call Chris 'no chill Chris'! However we haven't had many ad mech games, there's more to come with some new models on the painting desk!
