if they say no to using old GW models they are going against GW that say you can use old models :D

Nah, Straken and Harker were special. Catachans are too hard to be made of resin, they stayed metal until GW dropped them.

Not even excited because everything in this codex will get changed in an faq. Its just fucking annoying.

I curse whoever will buy this alongside GW for these THINGS are NOT WORTH THE BAD stuff we got. The no deep strike stuff, the removal of generic guard.. furthering the Imperial guard to be 3 flavors. Utter disgust and shame upon yeh all.

Scion not having deep strike is bullshit

Mercifully all the stuff I could complain about seems confined to "things that I think are kinda dumb, but are not, in fact, directly relevant to my specific army". I feel bad for folks with older collections though.

Between sisters and now scions does GW just want me to play space marines?? Next they’ll fuck up knights

Love this video. Must have watched it more than half a dozen times.

At this point, I'll take years of low win rates and not competitive rules in exchange for having more customizability outside of the three regiments that now somehow make up all Imperial Guard forces across the galaxy.

So, with the Scions losing Deep Strike I have a question about the Priority Drop Beacon from Bridgehead. Does it grant Deep Strike even if the unit doesn't have it, or does it just change when a unit that already has Deep Strike can come in?

All the 40k groups in my area have already given up the game. I think GW are just selling these units to whales and bots at this point. Looks like the bubble is gonna burst on all this in the near future. 🤞 It's a bummer that 40k has turned into a pump and dump scam.

Yeah... I think I'm done with 10th... and Games Workshop... Black Library can stay, but they're on thin ice.

Baneblade, Stormsword and Canis Rex each with stealth...

Have 4 different Guard armies Yet smaller than they were (true), As more infantry needed per unit now But have more heavy weapons units now lol.

Speaking of the Guard - is the Kill Team Krieg unit valid for 40k TT Guard army?

Aquillons. How much money?

I was going to pick up the army box, but as cool as the models look, it's way too expensive for way too little. I don't own or run enough brood brothers to justify that purchase

Before anyone starts celebrating or lamenting the loss of deep strike in Tempestus Scions, when David Gaylard from Team Fireside was streaming the leaks, he admited that he knew the Tempestus Scions where losing Deep Strike a couple of weeks ago, but also said he was told that they would (possibly) reinstate the ability on them and that there would be more early "fixes". Also, there are units that got a glow up, like Leman Russ Eradicator, which now, if under the benefit of cover against an attack, would reduce the damage by 1 too. Or Bullgryns going to 3+ saves instead of their current 4+. There are also other nerfs, like most artillery Basilisk, Manticore, etc) losing the "Heavy" keyword on thier weapons. ...and im still salty that Titanics are not Squadron so they done get anything from the TANK DETACHMENT RULES... yes, the heavy tanks dont get anything for the rules on the heavy tank detachment. That being said, they did get 12" in movement from 9". Also, Leman Russ Commander and Rogal Dorn Commander have 2 orders each,and Ursula and the new Krieg hero can order 3 units, the castellan leader can order 2 times. So Order economy is much better. Also, Solar is still 3 orders to anything, i hope he remains this way now so titanics at least can have SOME interactions with the army rules

14:15 One correction, the -1 also affects attacks towards that unit. 1. An enemy model makes an attack 2. Your selected unit is the closest eligible target. 3. If True, then that enemy model has -1 to hit It doesn't say anywhere that your unit has to be selected for the attack or not, just that it has to be the closest to the model attacking, whether it is attacking them or someone else. To me, it is actually quite flavourful: It represents the split concentration of a unit that is shooting while receiving suppression fire from an entrenched unit. If you are shooting to them, they are hard to hit, and if you are not shooting them, you have to keep an eye on them while aiming somewhere else, which also hinders you.

At least they used new codex art

I guess that my philosophy as an old time player and a TTRPG player is so different from that of some GW that it is hard to me to understand them. I really couldn't care less about the "fluff" of the unit, especially in Guard, because at the end of the day, I am going to use the models that I like and call them by whatever name I need to put in the list to make it official. I need balanced rules, I will put the fluff myself. I don't know, it feels like when people have debates about why This or That minor chapter of SM has disappeared, and how everyone seems to have a whole 2000 point army with that color scheme. Just... keep using it? I guess that if you are a professional player in important tournaments with more restrictive ruling that will affect you, but for 99% of people, I am not sure how is this such a big deal. Is the casual/mid tournament scene really that hostile to imagination that you can only play exactly certain units with exactly certain colours? To be honest, I go one step further, which gives me problems in GW shops, which is that I have enough official figures to field a couple of armies, but I just prefer to play with my 3d printed alternatives instead of using the official ones. It feels so restrictive to not do it. And besides, I just love my female soldiers, and GW has a pathetic record with that. It is improving, but not enough to my liking. I wished that GW would move WH back into a game in which what you see and what the rules apply are two different things. I find it ridiculous that a tank with a sponson behind a wall has benefit of cover. That just gives an incentive to have the sponsons as wide as possible. I wished that GW would consider a "cylindrical" model for figures, sort of a hit box in fight games: Take the base, and extend it X mm upwards, and that is the "hit box". A normal guard is 25 mm base and, let's say, 30 mm up. In that way, yo can have that guard having his gun up into the air celebrating a shot without a smartass saying "Akstually, I see the tip of the gun over the wall so I can shoot!" It would be great to have a standardize hitbox, or at least have a rule that say that obvious fluff elements are irrelevant when tracing LOS, etc. and that only the actual body counts for such calculation. Like a demon prince with the axe up or the axe down have the same hitbox, because the arm and the axe are not counted.

Scions losing deep strike to justify the redundant and mediocre aquilons existence is utterly disgusting.

A thought about the ordering transport strategem from mechanized assault: they exclude titanic units so no ordering those, but it doesnt exclude aircraft? Perhaps thatll be the place for Valkyries to finally not be bad? Just wish theyd change the Valkyrie ability to something more useful or drop the points a lot.

As much as I already hate playing against Imperial Guard, I am not looking forward to this codex.

Soo 3 sabotours, 3 grenadiers... i feel i can make a fun theme list full of explosions with brood brothers

I ran close combat catachans in 8th. Got two squads with 3 attacks on the charge in melee 2nd turn, 4 attacks for the sergeant with a power sword. That’d be a huge surprise for the multitude of marine players, plus the leman russes rolling around and basilisks and mortars pounding. Good times.

Krieg can actually get 4 special weapons per squad now. Not including the Watchmaster. I still hate the Krieg kit because of the Melta, boltgun, and Plasma gun sharing a single arm between the three of them. edit, this is probably wrong. You might be locked to 4 total special weapons. I hope the Catachans get a better put together kill team in the future.

Keep points low, sell out kits, nerf them into the ground, garner hype for new kits, profit Rinse and repeat

I feel that those points won't stay that cheap for long. That said, I'm using these for my 30k Cults and Militia army, so it doesn't matter to me.

I started with 2nd edition and stayed there.

I've not seen much mention of the Final Day detachment. Does that have anything top tier in it, or is it more just a fun awesome idea?

Noticing the mic sounds a little off in this episode. I'm hoping that's not gonna remain the case, this is good content.
