    You should teach people when and how to retreat. It is a powerful tool that too many people don't use.

    Really awesome video! Enjoy the historical reference. Its ironic that some people would say that stringing out lines of models is "gamey", when in reality thats exactly how actual battles were fought.

      Yeah I've always found that so odd when that's literally what armies really do!

      @MKDietz Рік тому +4

      I've heard that so much, really anytime you do anything tactical I've found some people call you a powerplayer or gamey. I really dislike that.
      Play by the rules use the rules to win. Simple :)

    These technical videos are awesome, keep them up! Would love to see a follow up about deployment against different kinds of armies and maybe a bit more about the tricks of base blocking that you mentioned here.

    Honest to gods, you teaching me to win AoS is just what I wanted in life, your work book is good but I learn better through watching and doing so this video is perfect! Please make more.

    I'm still new to AOS and having trouble with unit coherency. In the example with the 10x mortek guard screening in front of katakros, with the requirement of being within 1" of 2 or more models wouldn't they need to be in 2 ranks of 5 models due to their size?

  • @willcorcoran
    @willcorcoran Рік тому +1

    16' 21" - goes and reads 12.1 properly and has tiny mind absolutely blown. Hadn't realised that about piling in units that have charged, wow, wow. Brilliant video, as usual

    @michaelharding9619 Рік тому +2

    Great video, provides what’s not in the rule book…How to play the game! You’ve already improved my game, so any other explanations of ideas I can try will be fantastic. It’s interesting you mention, knowing what your opponent will do, how do you assess your opponents army and determine what their key pieces are and how they are likely to want to play them?

    I have really focused on making my buffs, debuffs, and health clearly represented on the table with thematic easy to read tokens. This above all else has made for a better experience for both me and my opponent. Could you make a video bringing awareness to this. 3 inch measuring guides for staying out of range during movement and 9 inch for summoning and deep strike

    Late to watching this but really liked it. As ever, very clear for those learning and in particular the use of visual examples with measuring aids is so important. I'm much better at understanding things when I can see them, so this is hugely helpful. I'd really like to see one for shooting, as I still find true line of sight a bit weird and don't understand how you can screen shooting, as well as piling-in tricks and tactics. In terms of other comments...umm...love the commitment to checked/plaid shirts. Keep up the good work!

    Enjoyed this video and thanks for the clear explanations on screening and zoning. Are you going to do another one on zoning in AOS 4.0? Rules have changed and putting 10 models in a straight line isn't allowed anymore (I think). How do you handle the double file screens since they have to be close to at least two other models? Like you said in the video, charging units now have an easy time just turning around the screens. I play Gitz btw.😉
