Thank you, Beryllio. I listened to the audio episode already, you're a champion for getting this all together so soon. Enjoy Shadow of the Erdtree, it will only be marginally less infuriating to play than this video probably was to edit!
I appreciate the "Hey, if you spoil this for our guy, you're banned." header up front. As someone who tries really hard to avoid spoilers, it means a lot.
Bless ye editor, enjoy the DLC! Also, yes, the guard thing! My god, I had that experience personally in the comments on another YT vid! People getting so mad about the strat changes and I'm just like, dude, what?! Our core rule WORKS now! That is so far beyond the downsides of our losses, what are you all on about? Do you not know how *vital* moving is and how much of a downside it was to have to stand still to even get it? As for the land raider, it's literally based of the *first* tank, so yes it's terrible but no-one else had one at the time! And yes, you NEED to watch battleshock on knights, rare as it is, you can't rotate shields ect once that happens so you do have to be careful! Rolling a 1 on the walk through walls has lost me a Castellan and a friend Canis Rex already (not in the same game but still)
In the admech discord the real excitement is around conqueror protocol. Even without melee, it turns out the +1AP does more damage than +1BS in most situations, so there’s little incentive to run protector. People have been coming up with protector lists - especially in cybernetica cohort - but I think you’ll find the standard admech list will want to sit in conqueror all game. The other thing people are excited for are the enhancement in hunter cohort and the Strat in cybernetica cohort that let you use both doctrines at once. This’ll let you pick a squad of 3 las chickens or a dunecrawler and give it +1BS + 1AP, which is nasty on 6 lad cannon shots.
But BGNT was worded where it only applies in your shooting phase never in the enemies movement or charge phase. So its a clarification was never a chamge needed.
The thing that still chafes me, is the leman russ demolisher vs the vindicator. The difference; +2 wounds +1 heavy bolter +2 multimeltas +1 hunter killer +1 heavy stubber Oh and on top of that a boss cannon, and the cost is only 25 points more. Vindicator gets what exactly? A cannon and uh... a storm bolter?. Duh F@3k. -_- That is not a 25 point difference no matter how you split it.
You walk into his boss room and you see him snorting a line and commenting *"Oh yeeah Tarnished my man, ccrreeam rise to top! Alas, you know I am the crrream of the crop!"*
Personally I though his big sacrifice to power you up enough to swallow the Elden Ring whole like a snake was great. But I can see how having your character unhinge their jaw might disturb some people.
Instead of HOT TAKES I read it as HOT TAXES. I really thought Brad and Erik would make an episode of them filing their taxes with Bricky. The IRS is not pleased...
Brad acting as if someone could "spoil" the Elden Ring story is like saying someone could spoil an episode of Planet Earth. Its more of a "goings on" than a story. You can read item descriptions... but they will be like "This dirty cloth was once the purest satin. Now it lies disgraced." and then there will be some 20 minute lore video on youtube about that cloth telling you how the dirt on it is actually slave orphan bile.
This dlc is a little different. It has a fairly coherent storyline, and a decently linear way to follow it. I would have been very angry if the final boss had been spoiled for me.
Anyone who says that Admech shouldn't have gotten points increases deserves to have their entire army sent to Legends. Also, PLEASE MAKE EVERY FACTION'S PRIMARIS LIEUTENANT, I'LL KEEP REQUESTING UNTIL IT HAPPENS!
People don't want points increase they want substantial power increases that lead to points increase. They're elite cyborg supersoldiers not just cannon fodder.
@@dittmar104 Admech was fundamentally reworked into a good army. Then people complained that the points got increased, like they weren't complaining only a few weeks prior how it was basically 2k for an incomplete army.
The new Vect does not work with Reinforcements. It's now an aura ability and as the Index Card FAQ states the reinforced unit is off the board when you use the stratagem and can't be targeted by aura abilities.
I think one of my main issues with the index system stems from ideas put forth when watching Bricky’s initial pre-release videos reading through the WarCom articles. Namely, the idea that with this new way of laying out datasheets, minor balance changes should have been infinitely easier than they have been, because they can change individual values without breaking a million other things in the game. Are Hormagaunts woefully underperforming? Increment their weapon strength, AP, movement, or any combination of the above and see what happens. The new dataslate has shown that they ARE willing to do these changes when needed (bumping Exocrine’s cannon strength, increasing the number of attacks for Sicarians, etc), which leads to the obvious question: why not have more frequent small-scale updates along these lines to keep the game fresh for all factions? And the answer my inner cynic keeps coming back to is “because then no one will buy the index cards” As much as I despise full army rules being tied to codexes, even that would have been bearable if that was the only factor at play. But instead GW just had to double dip and has fully bitten itself in the ass by being unable to make the changes that could keep the game healthier moment to moment, out of fear of upsetting the bean counters. It sucks man
The craziest part of the Elden Ring expansion was when you fight the Elden Ring and it says YOU HAVE FINALLY BECOME THE ELDENHAMMER 40K and the world explodes. Was WILD
So guard reinforcements vs Vect abilities answer attempt: it has already been stated specifically that Ursula Creed could NOT use her free atrat ability on reinforcements because the unit was no longer on the battlefield. As such, it would make sense that if the unit is no longer on the battlefield, it csnt be within 18" of a Vect capable model. I agree with yall that this needs an FAQ, but based on past answers we can probably assume the new Vect abilities do not affect reinforcement, unending wave, or similar such strats.
I find it hilarious during the tank grading video you joked about the custodes tank knowing karate, but now skimmers can legitimately roundhouse kick people from deep strike.
My issue with the Guard reinforcement CP cost modification thing is that at the start of the edition, logic was "Well the unit is no longer there, so you can't target them with the thing that makes the strat free", whereas now it's "Well the unit used to be there, so you can target them with the thing that makes the strat more expensive". Just feels like losing both times but the logic did a 180. Also thank you Berilio for your sacrifice.
I just want Beryllio to know while I was listening to this podcast, I beat the final boss of the Elden Ring DLC. I attribute my victory solely to his phenomenal editing. Your sacrifice was not in vain!
Beryllio is the true Elden lord. Can’t wait for him to get to the point in the DLC when Captain America makes a surprise appearance and says “Elden ring, assemble” to finish off the DLC. 10/10.
One of the funniest things is the pivot rule shows people don't know what words mean. "Round" means "circular." An oval is not round-- I couldn't find a single dictionary whose definition of round would include an oval. GW only had to include that line because they know people would try to ignore the meaning of words
Only "dictionary" where the definition of round would include oval is the IAU one... but it has insane levels of absurdity in its definitions (because instead of simply fixing how the definitions are applied they re-defined them to be incompatible with any language and even more retarded, including that oblate spheroids are round and that astronomers are diplomats...). BUT WHAT MOTHERFUCKER IS TRYING TO MEASURE TABLETOP PLASTIC TOYS BY A BUNCH OF POLITICIANS AND POP FIGURES THAT DONT EVEN DO PLANETARY RESEARCH?!?!?
As someone who has been failed in college-level English because the teacher didn't appreciate "backtalk" when I got specific about the meaning of words in their assignments- Most people consider ovals "round." "Most" includes English teachers at the college level. No, I don't know this from a specific instance; I'm not crying, shut up.
I think the reason Belakor got a point drop despite being good is that his unique "thing" of giving shadow of chaos in an aura around him is no longer special now that every other greater daemon also does that. Belakor still has the advantage of doing it for all god units simultaneously, but it is less of an advantage when compared to no one else having it at all.
I feel that bit about tournament players and social literacy. Like 99% of the people I interact with in this hobby are kind and well-adjusted folks... that 1% really just sucks
As a guard player who's been running little to no arty, and all tanks and infantry the whole time, these last few updates have all been very fun. Very much looking forwards to tank shocking absurd dice with my dorn
Funny thing about twin-linked, I found how they determined it at the start. Put your face right into the model and then cross your eyes, if you can still see the guns it gets twin-linked.
Dude, the new elden ring expansion is so cool! At the end when Elden man says “it’s Eldening Time” and Elden Rings all over everyone, I was literally crying. Have fun with it, Beryllio!
The Necron codex is so misunderstood. You have a S tier army if you don't run any of the 3 other detachments then your running a F tier army if you don't run the exact same combos as everyone else.
You not being able to keep something in stock sounds familiar. What can i say you either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
Thanks, Beryllio, you're the man. As a Gaurd player, I dislike the changes, but It does balance things out better. I wish that more than half our army could use the one detachment rule. Example: tank commanders, Baneblades, and flyers don't have the squadron keyword. Ogryn, Bulgryn, and rattlings don't have the regiment keyword.
You cant increase the cost of the reinforce strategem for the same reason guard cant reduce it, because the unit is not on the battlefield, the new guard faqs calls this out
Expansion on why drukhari players are a little pissed. The ravagers went up at the beggining of 10th because of ynnari, scourges are now going up because of ynnari. While scourges are obnoxious with move shoot move, the darklances hit on 4's and would wound the importance targets on 3's and 4's, while only being ap3 agaisnt everything having cover. So while still good dark lances have a high variance. The scourges didnt need a point increase in drukhari, they needed a 10 point increase in ynnari. If the ynnari detachment in aeldari gained a rule that makes you pay 5-10 extra for drukhari units it would make ynnari easier to balance without affecting drukhari.
Its insane how little eldar player representation they have, but yes. I think out of the 3 nerfs drukhari have has, 2 of them are only because of ynnari, and the other one is because GW just hates being able to play with flyer models. If you filter that stuff out, we have been consistently dropping in points because of our actual army's performance.
yeah you can run 18 sentinels in a 2k point guard list (including armoured and scout) and give them all hunter killers, chainsaws and plasma/autocannons with lethals against everything to just melt entire lists. this block does cost you $810 plus the other 935 points of guard you need (just use a baneblade and some infantry)
And it's also kinda bad. Kekw. Plasma cannon is just D3 shots plasma with blast. No even a bit of extra strength. Your infantry guys in rapid fire range with order shoot flat 3 attacks. So damage-wise just better to take scion blob
CSM Legionaires are one of the biggest damage dealers in the faction, a 5-man squad with 2 heavy weapons is insane. I'm still running 4 post-nerf. They were good at current cost earlier this edition, they were insane at 80pts. Raptors and Havocs make 0 sense to nerf, and Warptalons eating the double nerf really hurts.
Beryllio did a great job editing all this together. He will be so mad, when he learns at the end of the new Elden Ring DLC, that the main character Mr. James Elden doesn't end up throwing the Ring in Mount Doom.
As a sisters player, I will miss my exorcist hitting indirects on 3s, but it’s probably for the best. Also, good luck throwing the Elden Ring into the fire Berilio… or whatever Elden Ring is about.
I agree with Brad on the Necrons. Warriors need to go down to 8pts each Triarch Praetorians, Annihilation Barges, Triarch Stalkers, and more need to go down too. The internal balance is still not great
The overhanging bases from the board edge means you can fit the tiger shark base over the edge to keep it within 6 inches of the board edge and you can actually use the model when it comes in
Thank you beryllio for sacrificing your weekend so I can have my free entertainment that I don't truly appreciate also in the elden ring dlc you fight enemy's spoiler alerts
Something you didn't notice about Zoanthropes and the Neurotyrant. Big Guns Never Tire lets Monster Units shoot while in melee, however it only gives the -1 to hit to Monster *Models*. So your Neurotyrant has its auto hit flamer and doesn't care about that penalty, and then the Zoanthropes can still hit on a 2+ despite being in melee.
THANK YOU BERYLLIO! Yeah if the actual core rules were just a living document you could look up that had a side bar or something with a literal patch note history that would be the best solution to all of this madness, they could even make the patch notes into bookmarks, so if you really wanted you could click on a patch note and it would jump you directly to the section that was changed, but unfortunately that would require GW to actually think, so no dice there.
Here's the update, but it's scattered like the pages in the Slenderman park and you only understand the notes if you already have a full book, which on its own is now useless. Also, the Slenderman is still hunting you.
Fully agree on free digital rules, but they could even compromise like AOS. AOS makes the datasheets(warscrolls) free and makes the specific subfactions and artifacts and things the restricted parts in the app. So you can easily build lists and know what your units do, but if you wanna use army rules you need the book. So people who want to look at how your model works can, and the only stuff they need to ask you are things they'd rarely need outside of a game, plus list building is mostly fine.
They can even keep buyable physical codices, but instead of selling them then rendering them obsolete, sell them as a capstone to the edition and bring more lore in, SPECIFICALLY writing in narrative lyrics translated tournament results. Let plays feel like they have INFLUENCED the story, even if it's just text in a book.
@@johnj.spurgin7037 I like this idea, that’s fun. Or better yet, do the codex paid rules but give me a way to buy them digitally for $20 and say “The physical version will be after the digital and the rules inside are essentially considered vestigial. Ignore them if you’re a normal person”
@@johnj.spurgin7037I do not need all the imperium players brute forcing the results for in universe battles just because too many people play imperium.
Honestly there is no reason for us players to make compromises here. Printed rules are not working for a properly changing game (God bless GW for coming onto the idea of Dataslates after 9 editions) and to be honest, GW makes absolutely insane profit margins with models alone, incorporating price hikes every couple years. I do not see why you should buy a regular ass squad for 50 euros only to have to pay extra for being able to field them.
I kinda disagree about the limited amount of fun and list building everyone gets from the update, as an admech player i finally get an index detachment that works alongside this weird looking book that i did not pirate. Im quite happy to finally be playing tenth edition with my favorite army that has been benched
To Bricky's point about the "monsters are things you'll usually want to charge anyway, so that's why they shouldn't get tank shock." Counterpoint: every single knight except the shooting only ones, every melee dreadnought, every Khorne vehicle (even soulgrinder), GSC rockgrinder, most ork vehicles including the trukk.
Honestly, I worry about Daemons. What other detachments can their codex give them that stands up to the index detachment? They can solve the index problem with drip-feed free detachments and then still selling codexes, but ONLY at the exact end of the edition, and they can further incentivize this by writing the results of major tournaments into the lore section.
Did you know that the Onager Dunecrawler is based on the Sturmtiger? Genuinely delighted to see all my techy bois getting an IOS update that actually improves them and doesn’t just take up extra space on the hard drive. Edit: forgot to include obligatory offering of gratitude to Berilio - please have mercy on my soul, oh great one.
36:30 Bricky, Guard players are mad because this change kills the pure infantry guard playstyle and shoehorns what is usually a very diverse faction into a tank focused gameplay I fear you are not going to do well as pure infantry without renforcement. For those that was their kick it sucks.
I haven't played the DLC but if I had to guess the boss will be a skinny guy but maybe a big guy and you will pull your hair out trying to beat them. Then if you do, a semi ominous cut scene that has cool vibes no explanation will play.

Thanks, Beryllio, you're the man. As a Gaurd player, I dislike the changes, but It does balance things out better. I wish that more than half our army could use the one detachment rule. Example: tank commanders, Baneblades, and flyers don't have the squadron keyword. Ogryn, Bulgryn, and rattlings don't have the regiment keyword.
"This is the best piece of apple pie I've ever tasted, but you served it to me without a plate or a fork." That's one way to sum up an opinion.
You cant increase the cost of the reinforce strategem for the same reason guard cant reduce it, because the unit is not on the battlefield, the new guard faqs calls this out
Expansion on why drukhari players are a little pissed. The ravagers went up at the beggining of 10th because of ynnari, scourges are now going up because of ynnari. While scourges are obnoxious with move shoot move, the darklances hit on 4's and would wound the importance targets on 3's and 4's, while only being ap3 agaisnt everything having cover. So while still good dark lances have a high variance. The scourges didnt need a point increase in drukhari, they needed a 10 point increase in ynnari. If the ynnari detachment in aeldari gained a rule that makes you pay 5-10 extra for drukhari units it would make ynnari easier to balance without affecting drukhari.
Its insane how little eldar player representation they have, but yes. I think out of the 3 nerfs drukhari have has, 2 of them are only because of ynnari, and the other one is because GW just hates being able to play with flyer models. If you filter that stuff out, we have been consistently dropping in points because of our actual army's performance.
Looks at video length, smiles with glee. Sees Bricky, jorts are sufficiently creamed.
yeah you can run 18 sentinels in a 2k point guard list (including armoured and scout) and give them all hunter killers, chainsaws and plasma/autocannons with lethals against everything to just melt entire lists. this block does cost you $810 plus the other 935 points of guard you need (just use a baneblade and some infantry)
And it's also kinda bad. Kekw. Plasma cannon is just D3 shots plasma with blast. No even a bit of extra strength. Your infantry guys in rapid fire range with order shoot flat 3 attacks. So damage-wise just better to take scion blob
CSM Legionaires are one of the biggest damage dealers in the faction, a 5-man squad with 2 heavy weapons is insane. I'm still running 4 post-nerf. They were good at current cost earlier this edition, they were insane at 80pts. Raptors and Havocs make 0 sense to nerf, and Warptalons eating the double nerf really hurts.
Beryllio did a great job editing all this together. He will be so mad, when he learns at the end of the new Elden Ring DLC, that the main character Mr. James Elden doesn't end up throwing the Ring in Mount Doom.
"...so you don't have to compile your own rules"
[Laughs nervously in thirty years of house rules]
Elden Ring DLC slaps, just make sure to get the Scadutrees or you will get clapped
Thank you funny Brazilian man for your hard work and countless hours gloriously rendering the majesty and ginormity of Bricky's forehead.
As a sisters player, I will miss my exorcist hitting indirects on 3s, but it’s probably for the best.
Also, good luck throwing the Elden Ring into the fire Berilio… or whatever Elden Ring is about.
There is a minor benefit to native 3+ BS on indirect. You can ignore to-hit penalties because they are functionally irrelevant.
I agree with Brad on the Necrons. Warriors need to go down to 8pts each
Triarch Praetorians, Annihilation Barges, Triarch Stalkers, and more need to go down too.
The internal balance is still not great
The overhanging bases from the board edge means you can fit the tiger shark base over the edge to keep it within 6 inches of the board edge and you can actually use the model when it comes in
Thank you beryllio for sacrificing your weekend so I can have my free entertainment that I don't truly appreciate also in the elden ring dlc you fight enemy's spoiler alerts
Editors are almost always the silent heroes of UA-cam channels. I am a little late to getting to this video due to busy day but thank you Berillio!
I’m sad they didn’t mention the index erattas, they definitely shadow nerfed Votann and a couple other armies.
Something you didn't notice about Zoanthropes and the Neurotyrant. Big Guns Never Tire lets Monster Units shoot while in melee, however it only gives the -1 to hit to Monster *Models*. So your Neurotyrant has its auto hit flamer and doesn't care about that penalty, and then the Zoanthropes can still hit on a 2+ despite being in melee.
The Man, the Brick, the legend
The Good, the Bad, the Bricky
THANK YOU BERYLLIO!
Yeah if the actual core rules were just a living document you could look up that had a side bar or something with a literal patch note history that would be the best solution to all of this madness, they could even make the patch notes into bookmarks, so if you really wanted you could click on a patch note and it would jump you directly to the section that was changed, but unfortunately that would require GW to actually think, so no dice there.
Let another 2 hour hobby session BEGIN
Here's the update, but it's scattered like the pages in the Slenderman park and you only understand the notes if you already have a full book, which on its own is now useless. Also, the Slenderman is still hunting you.
One here for our editor! I hope you have a good time in the DLC
Bigs thanks to Beryllio for his hard work and enjoy the DLC ^^
I, for my part, have a lot of Zoanthropes to paint.
2 hours of hot takes... and the dataslate came late too. Poor Berlio...
Didn’t even know about the errata until I watched this lol! Thanks James Workshop!
Once again A+ work on the Thumbnail. And thank you thank you thank you Berilio ❤
Praise the Berillio! I mean the Omnisia...
A good soldier follows orders! Thanks Berillio! Enjoy Elden Ring!
The new big knight ability keyword should absolutely be "KOOL-AID MAN" or perhaps "OH YEAH!"
Fully agree on free digital rules, but they could even compromise like AOS. AOS makes the datasheets(warscrolls) free and makes the specific subfactions and artifacts and things the restricted parts in the app. So you can easily build lists and know what your units do, but if you wanna use army rules you need the book. So people who want to look at how your model works can, and the only stuff they need to ask you are things they'd rarely need outside of a game, plus list building is mostly fine.
They can even keep buyable physical codices, but instead of selling them then rendering them obsolete, sell them as a capstone to the edition and bring more lore in, SPECIFICALLY writing in narrative lyrics translated tournament results. Let plays feel like they have INFLUENCED the story, even if it's just text in a book.
@@johnj.spurgin7037 I like this idea, that’s fun. Or better yet, do the codex paid rules but give me a way to buy them digitally for $20 and say “The physical version will be after the digital and the rules inside are essentially considered vestigial. Ignore them if you’re a normal person”
@@johnj.spurgin7037I do not need all the imperium players brute forcing the results for in universe battles just because too many people play imperium.
Honestly there is no reason for us players to make compromises here. Printed rules are not working for a properly changing game (God bless GW for coming onto the idea of Dataslates after 9 editions) and to be honest, GW makes absolutely insane profit margins with models alone, incorporating price hikes every couple years. I do not see why you should buy a regular ass squad for 50 euros only to have to pay extra for being able to field them.
I was foiled by GW announcing that AOS is getting a new app that’s just the 40K app so we’re just boned. Thanks James
Thank you, Berilio for sacrificing your weekend so that someone like me who doesn't play 40k can enjoy the podcast on my Tuesday afternoon.
Happy tech priest commenting for metrics
I can’t believe john elden took to ring (thank you for your sacrifice beryllio)
Beryllio, you’ll love the post credit cutscene with John Dark Souls 2!
obligatory berryellow congradulations
God, I've been waiting for this all week. Well done lads!
Pour one out for my boy Beryllio, he’s facing the hardest Elden Ring boss of all - more waiting.
I kinda disagree about the limited amount of fun and list building everyone gets from the update, as an admech player i finally get an index detachment that works alongside this weird looking book that i did not pirate. Im quite happy to finally be playing tenth edition with my favorite army that has been benched
To Bricky's point about the "monsters are things you'll usually want to charge anyway, so that's why they shouldn't get tank shock."
Counterpoint: every single knight except the shooting only ones, every melee dreadnought, every Khorne vehicle (even soulgrinder), GSC rockgrinder, most ork vehicles including the trukk.
Honestly, I worry about Daemons. What other detachments can their codex give them that stands up to the index detachment?
They can solve the index problem with drip-feed free detachments and then still selling codexes, but ONLY at the exact end of the edition, and they can further incentivize this by writing the results of major tournaments into the lore section.
Did you know that the Onager Dunecrawler is based on the Sturmtiger?
Genuinely delighted to see all my techy bois getting an IOS update that actually improves them and doesn’t just take up extra space on the hard drive.
Edit: forgot to include obligatory offering of gratitude to Berilio - please have mercy on my soul, oh great one.
Nah, it has much more with M3 Lee/Grant front hull
@@Jfk2Mr clearly a War Thunder/WoT survivor has entered the chat lol - welcome, brother!
@@alexandrudorries3307 ah, yes, the games that are almost fun, of which one is considered a threat to military information security
36:30 Bricky, Guard players are mad because this change kills the pure infantry guard playstyle and shoehorns what is usually a very diverse faction into a tank focused gameplay
I fear you are not going to do well as pure infantry without renforcement. For those that was their kick it sucks.
Objective Markers: suffering from success
Beryllio thank you for sacrificing your weekend to get the video done on time.
I haven't played the DLC but if I had to guess the boss will be a skinny guy but maybe a big guy and you will pull your hair out trying to beat them. Then if you do, a semi ominous cut scene that has cool vibes no explanation will play.
