    The latest leaks are talking about a bunch of new corsairs models coming in, vehicles like vypers/venom, jetpacks (inspired by the oldschool models) corsairs, and most of all, Prince Yriel, so a Corsair detachment doesn't seems implausible.

    Karrandras was the first Phoenix Lord model I got back in the day, he was absolutely busted on the tabletop.

    For spirit, seer and wraith units. I think they could get around the limit of three by adding it to the unit. So for the points cost of the unit, you get five rates and a race seer. Then I could give the unit Lethal hits or plus one or whatever it’s going to do.

    It'll definitely be one of the most stacked of 10th edition. 7 detachments in one book... or 8, depending on if the Christmas one is the 8th the article eludes to or we get a total of 9(!). Gonna be an excruciating wait to find out if they actually did a good job with the whole thing. Obligatory reminder that everyone loved penitent host till we saw the final points costs, and realized 1/5th of sisters' datasheets were locked to one mediocre detachment now...
    Sometimes GW have hits when they make rules, but there are definitely stinkers along the way as well.

    On battle focus. Eldar didn't get it till 7th. You could essentially advance(9th ed terminology) before or after shooting. There was no strands of fate bladestorm was a standard weapon feature on shuriken weaponry. Before 6th ed eldar had to rely on a 4th edition dex where their battle tactic was that they were faster (I:5 to 7) and better standard weaponry than tactical Marines. Oh and back in 5th and 6th there were no primaris Marines.

    You mentioned Wraith detachment giving battle focus to Wraith units. I just hate the idea of giving up a detachment rule to give them the army rule. The Robot detachment does that for ad mech and it’s pretty awful/feels bad.
    So hopefully it doesn’t go down that route. I’d prefer the wraith detachment be similar to the Soul Forged warpack chaos detachment. Ranged weapons bonus to wound and additional melee attacks on wraith units would be bananas.

    • @cole8834

      battle focus to wraith units is really dumb and not even how you play either wraithguard or wraithblades. not to mention unthematic. it would only be a mild buff for wraithlord... but something like +1 to weapon/ballistic skill for all wraiths would be much better (so you could either get 2+ to hit w/ attached Spiritseers or just not have to worry about them).

    The 2025 release kinda depends on the pricing. Will we get expensive kits like Rangers/Dark Reapers/Shining Spears, or will we get 10 man kits like the Blades of Khaine box? Will we get a Battleforce box of decent or terrible value? Will the Combat Patrol be the next victim of points and plastic shrinkflation? I don't have high hopes, but we'll see.
    - We don't have power fist style units, though I think Wraithblade ghostaxes are pretty close (though if it were a Powerfist, it'd be strength 10 or something)
    - Windriders, Shining Spears, and Shroud Runners all got Battle Focus in 9th, though yeah, Dark Reapers didn't.
    - Fire Dragons getting Flamers will be a pretty big departure from the standard Aspect Warrior only getting using one loadout. I think the best compromise is that the Fusion Gun has a dual weapon profile (like Shadow Spectres) in which you choose from the melta gun or flamer, which then makes the Exarch choice what you slant the squad to. Their points cost would have to go way up to 100 to justify it, but it'd make Fire Dragons very interesting.
    - I'm also hoping that Corsairs and Rangers get folded into a single "Outcast" detachment (goodness knows you can't make a dedicated Corsair or Ranger army anyway).
    Anyways, neat video, I'll check out ExileWargaming when I have time 👍

    I REALLY need to see some change to Dire Avengers within the new codex. Currently I feel like Dire Avengers are just so bad and just need a change, the framework is there to make them great but not broken op. All they need is a small increase of points, increase their base AP to -2 on the Avenger Catapults and change their current overwatch rule to a new Hail of Doom ability.
    Make Hail of Doom ONLY for Dire Avengers as their unique rule and have it has "A Critical Wound or any Wound Roll from a Lethal Hit gains an additional -2AP on their Avenger Shuriken profile"
    Easy fix, makes them viable as a general jack of all trades "Silver Medal threat" damage capable unit to anything in the game while still being a very squishy unit and easily countered. I understand people are scared that it would turn DAs into their 9th edition form but in 9th there was a ton of additional context that simply isnt in 10th to allow the DA to perform at that level anymore.

      Surely you mean a Troupe with Yvraine and The Visarch. That unit slaps, but only because of the 2 characters and is like 400pts+. The Troupe also have to make it into combat without being overwatched to death, or at least overwatched to uselessness.
      A unit of Troupe, with a Troupe Master (235pts), has (against a unit of Primaris Marines (160pts)):
      54 Attacks
      35 Hits
      5-6 Dev Wounds and 17 Wounds @ -1ap
      8 unsaved wounds + 6 Dev Wounds = 14 wounds = 7 dead Primaris Marines (112pts) (this is without them using AOC).
      2 Primaris Marines and Sergeant attacking back (48pts) has:
      10 Attacks
      7 Hits
      5 Wounds
      3 unsaved wounds = 3 dead Harlequins (45pts)
      So, a unit that costs 235pts, kills APPROXIMATELY 112pts worth of Primaris marines, and then loses 45pts worth of harlequins in return. Your expensive unit is now trapped in combat with 3 Marines, who fall back to allow the boltguns attached to their numerous tanks, which don't normally have targets to kill the rest of your unit with ease.
      This is napkin math (and I havent accounted for the single re-roll for Eldar or the Troupe Master ability). However I've also gone with one of the most basic profiles in the game for the Troupe to attack. If you're targeting Plague Marines, Terminators, Grotesques, vehicles, Orks etc the Troupe just get even worse. Not to mention they are OC1, so if you fluff and dont kill 6 Marines on an objective, you dont even steal it off them.
      They suck. And need help BADLY.
      I think if you're finding them to be BROKEN, its either a you problem, or your opponent has some of their rules wrong.

    It means that many of our datasheets will be locked in even before our codex is published. Some of those datasheets really could use some love, such as the Wyches, who hit less hard than Storm Guardians or Voidreavers.
    The only saving grace is that I am in so much pain right now that I must obviously be becoming more powerful.

      You know honestly when our codex comes out those dark Eldar datasheets might work completely differently and have different points/rules that really only work in Ynnari.
      As a DE enthusiast and fan I do think your codex should be the next in line after Aeldari. You guys desperately need it.

      @@ProxyHammer1 If you look at the Imperial Agent codex, some of the datasheets like the Battle Sisters differ slightly in their ability because they would be unusable otherwise. That said, the stats stay the same between both iteration and that is a bummer as DE stats could do with some love. Some DE datasheets are in need of a rework and I am afraid GW will not dedicate the resources for that.

      chances are the sheets are gonna work differently, ynnari play a lot differently than druhkari or aeldari. I get the anger but this was honestly the best thing to happen to ynnari and druhkari. This way druhkari doesnt get punished for the sins of ynnari and vise versus plus it wont be the whole army, itll only be the ynnari elligible units so we might not even get a court of the archon. Its gonna be great for ynnari too because the archon in the index does not work at all in ynnari like his datasheet just doesnt function because we dont have pain tokens

    I play Veterans of the Long War (Black Legion) and I gotta admit I hate Abaddon's current rule design... His lore is pretty good though I think, despite the plot armour granted to everyone that comes face to face with him that is not a 1000 your old Sigismund. A 280 pts "glass cannon" with zero synergy with CSM Terminators... He's designed to optimally lead from the rear by granting re-rolls to vehicles, instead of being a proper warrior-king that leads from the front as in the lore. He should have had Feel No Pain in return for his Aura only working on Infantry, Mounted and Vehicles with the Walker keyword. The Veteran's Focus of Hatred should grant re-roll To wounds instead if the unit already has re-rolls to hit. That way Abaddon would have had a use with CSM terminators as well as "the Black Legion".

      I don't use him for VotLW because of the anti synergy there but genuinely him being in a unit of Chosen are nearly unstoppable, there has not been a single unit that has survived that brick and I've used it against every type of unit you can think of.

      @@oliverp3545 He hits pretty hard, although far less so than he used to in the index days, but even then I had him fumble the ball and fail to kill things like C'tan, Norn Emissaries, etc. The problem is that him + Chosen start at 405 pts combined for just 6 models, and while you have a good chance to get to strike first (especially in Raiders), I've found that more often than not Abaddon and his squad die very quickly when the opponent retaliates. Hard to reliably kill 405+ pts worth of enemies in most games before he bites the dust.

      @runeh3022 yeah I always keep them in Rhinos because they're very easy to hide and provides a jumping off point for them to move on up, I usually have it hugging ruin walls and then it does actions whilst they threaten with a forward position.

    Thoughts as I was listening to the video:
    Did you say "dark eldar in the book"? If that is the case, Ynnari might be limited to drukhari datasheets from the book, instead of Drukhari index/codex.
    I think that army might be limited to 1/4 of non-Asuyrani units (Drukhari, Harlequins and Corsairs), unless you have specific detachment - Corsair detachment for Corsairs, Harlequin detachment for 'quins and Ynnari for all of them together.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Tyranids have two army rules - all units have one and some have the other. They can easily make two army rules, and just write one on some datasheets and the other on Harlequin datasheets. It might be a bit confusing tho if you have both on the table and use one army rule for some units and second army rule for other units.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I would personally give warlocks Protect/Jinx - protect only on their unit and jinx on any within 12''.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    My idea for Wraith detachment is that it gives different bonus depending on whenever unit has a Spiritseer or not. Like, +1 to hit for Wraith unit without spiritseer, and 6+++ for Wraith units with spiritseer. (using bonus from Bonesinger)
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    My guess is that Fire Dragons will need to get Falcon to get re-roll on flamer against infantry. (they will have rule only against vehicle + monster)
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Or just give Falcon a bad ability, but make it equally cheaper - a cheap hull with a decent shooting, deep strike and transport for a small unit.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Abbadon's problem was that he stood in front of Cadia for a long time, until he was allowed to destroy it. He had one big goal - get past Cadia, and he was allowed everything, except that. If they made more space between Eye of Terror and Cadia, they could give him victores, and then have him pushed back again... He wouldn't destroy cadia, or terra, but he would have actual victories that push him toward victory.
    The Ynnari have the same problem right now - right now they are in the same position - they have the goal to kill Slaanesh, and I doubt that they are allowed to do that.
