ERRATA: 38:00 During the Battleshock Tests, the footage of the Cultists and Legionaries rolls were accidentally swapped in the editing process. To reiterate, you pass (and are safe) by rolling ABOVE your leadership value, and fail (become battleshocked) by rolling UNDER your leadership. The two "Twin Linked" rerolls on the Flying Hive Tyrants weapons were performed incorrectly. The entire roll is not considered "the attack", each individual dice is considered a unique attack. You can decide whether to reroll for each individual dice. Why the rules writers didn't just say "Twin Linked: re-roll failed wound rolls" is beyond me. Why write 7 words when 100 will do, eh? Thanks for watching! If there are any rules or situational stuff that you still feel uncertain about, drop a comment below and I'm sure some kind Warhammer 40k expert will be glad to point you in the right direction! No joke, this video took over 200 hours to put together. If you've found it useful, your support really means the world to us!

Regarding Twinlinked, I'm guessing it's because you can choose to reroll a successful wound in hopes of getting a 6 to trigger devastating wounds. Maybe?
Regarding the feel no pain, you have to roll for each failed save separately right? Because if you rolled two successful 6+ against the first failed save then it technically would have only killed one legionary. 56:45
THANKS GUYS! Ive been watching and reading lore for 2 years and Im ready to start playing. This has helped me understand so much more about what types of minis to choose and weapons to pick for them. Its really inti idating to see how complex the rules for this game are but you have helped me get more of a grasp on things.
Slight clarification on Twin-Linked, it does not require you to re-roll all wounds. The wording states "Each time an attack is made with such a weapon, you can re-roll that attack's wound roll." When attacking with a weapon, each dice is considered its own attack, and rolling them all together is referred to as fast rolling. That means that you only need to re-roll the failed wound rolls, however the rule does state that it can be any wound roll, not just failed ones, which is intended to leave open the option to re-roll a successful wound if you're looking instead for a critical wound for the sake of devastating wounds. Honestly fast rolling probably deserved its own clarification, it's often taken for granted by people because its done so often that it muddies interpretations of the rules, even with experienced players it seems. For instance you shouldn't fast roll when making feel no pain rolls for several models, as it needs to be clear before you roll which dice are for which model. Also the rules are pretty unambiguous when it comes to "when a model is leading a unit". The rulebook clarifies that once a character in a combined unit loses its bodyguard it is no longer considered a combined unit and the character and bodyguard are considered separate units from that point forward, therefore any abilities that specify "when this model is leading a unit" are no longer usable once the bodyguards have been destroyed.
@@notafan1139 Terrified? what do you think will happen to you if you get it wrong? Oh but the clarification *could* have just been "you pick individual dice to reroll rather than re-rolling all dice at once".
@@lorddashdonalddappington2653 finding someone to play with who will help teach me and be cool has been a rough go. it’s either turbo nerds or gate keeping assholes which is the exact opposite of what I’m told 40K is like. And to clarify I’m not being mean about turbo nerds they practically shouted at me for trying something goofy with a paint job after I was told online how nobody really cares have fun! Idk man I don’t know if this is for me
as someone who's really only into the modelling and painting side, but has thought about getting into the game proper a number of times, intro vids like this are very helpful. I still glaze over when confronted with stuff like 5+ different stats to express weapon strength and damage resistance, but y'know... probably a reason for it I just don't grasp yet.
I love all your "How-to-play" games and your battle reports. They might have the occasional missed rulling, but they are by far the easiest to follow and the most entertaining to watch!!! Love your content!!!
An amazing, simple easy to follow introduction to the 40K game we know and love. I especially appreciate the chapter section for easy reference! Thanks Guy!
I just started playing the game, and this was hands down the most helpful video I’ve come across so far. Thank you for the great explanations, I feel much more confident about my understanding of the game than I did an hour ago!
Even though I don't play or collect 40K myself, I very much appreciate the start section, because the statements there are applicable for almost any wargame: You don't need a lot of models for your first game. You also don't need to create your force by any "balanced gameplay" rules, it's more important to get the gist of the game first. And finally, basically anything can function as a playing surface and terrain. Just use the dining table, throw some books, pencils, bottles, cans, etc. on it and start having fun. Thanks for showing some of the "improvised first terrain", I think it really sells the point.
Thank you guys so much for this video. I’ve been a fan of the 40k books and lore for a long time, and I recently decided to try learning to play, but it’s so complicated. This is easily the best video I’ve found breaking it down for someone like me who really struggles to learn by just reading a text book.
I know how to play, and this was still very fun to watch. I’m sure if you were new, this is exactly the kind of video that would encourage you to start playing! Very friendly, and well laid out. Thank you for this, and love what you do
As always, very high quality content from Guy. Keep it up brother, you're making this hobby more and more accessible for new folks and we need more channels like yours!
This was super fun to watch and definitely cemented the decision to get into WH40K by my brother and I. I'm going Space Marines (Ultramarines) and he's going Chaos Space Marines (mix of cultists and Emperor's Children).
Imagine something like Lego Warhammer! We'll never hear the end of it! Easy to assemble because you can put the pieces together, pre painted, and they wouldn't look out of place. Take some of those old kits and make your own war zone.
You're how to play videos for 8th and 9th and their soundscapes got me back into playing warhammer after many years. The way you shot them and the music really sent me right back to playing when I was a kiddo. I've had a lot of fun playing and always feel comfy and at ease watching your videos. I really appreciate all the effort you put in, and I hope I get to see that leviathan box in play soon!
Great video, though a small correction:Twin-linked does not mean that you reroll all the dice in the wound roll. Instead, it means that you reroll all 'failed' dice.
@@MidwinterMinis Except the exact wording in the core rules is "Weapons with [TWIN-LINKED) in their profile are known as Twin-linked weapons. Each time an attack is made with such a weapon, you can re-roll that attack's Wound roll." that means you can re-roll successful wound rolls to fish for critical wounds if you so desire.
@@MidwinterMinis The rules are written as if you are resolving one attack at a time, so it never says something like 're-roll all the dice' or 'only the failed rolls'. Where it says 're-roll a Wound roll of 1' for example, it still means all the 1s you have rolled because each attack can use that rule separately.
This was absolutely great! Followed along with the rulebook and definitely feel more confident in what I'm doing. The rulebook in and of itself is a lot to absorb at once, it's nice to see it in action with explanations as you go. Looking forward to watching your batreps next!
Really respect that you waited to get this done properly, instead of bashing it out as soon as 10th Edition released, Guy. Already - as early days as it is for 10th - we are seeing the game rules be discussed, clarified upon and balanced and personally I think GW are doing a good job this time round keeping in touch with the community. This video stands as a great guide for not just how to engage with the current rules, but how to have fun and adjust with how GW make changes. Great stuff 👍
Thanks for this I was so confused but I checked the app to be sure and we were right that the roll needs to be equal to or higher the leadership characteristic to pass
Never one to like and comment but the fact that I'm not even a minute in and you have already helped me more then most by showing with an example game ❤
I was just thinking about the video you did for 9th edition and was hoping you would do one for 10th, perfect timing seeing as I just finished building my leviathan box!!
I’m getting back into the hobby and I really appreciate the straightforward breakdown of the datasheets. Something that other How To Play videos seem to gloss over
This video was so helpful in understanding the game! I’m starting to get into warhammer and this is the one video that helped me understand most of the of it. Do you have any additional videos that cover vehicles?
I started my hobby with 40K, but was a bit turned off after some time possibly due to the crowd I played with, and the rules after 6th edition… I have since move to smaller skirmish games, but I still really enjoy watching videos about the game and hearing other people that are enthusiastic about the game talk about it. This video and game demo are flawless. Presented in a clear and incredibly digestible manner, great for newcomers to mini war gaming and the hobby. Great job, Guy and Ant!! (And all others that helped to make this content) 👏
One quick thing to mention for mortal wounds is that they can be saved via a feel-no-pain ability like when the hazardous test was failed the master of possession could use the feel no pain ability to try and ignore the 3 mortal wounds
Thanks for the great video! I would absolutely love a beginner TACTICS video, where you talk about the decisions you make at different points of the game and what considerations you're thinking about when making them. I don't think there are very many videos like that, and it would be very cool to see
This video is greatly detailed but simple. I do have to say though for new players: "I'm sure soon enough, the codex for your army of choice will get released soon" is very likely untrue. There are 21 armies/codeces to release. After 4 months we got 2. At next year June, 9 are supposed to be released. If your amry is not in one of the 9 in the roadmap, it could take 18+ months to release. The last armies in 9th had a couple of months to play with their codex.
It's always a little funny to see what people use for their "quick makeshift terrain made from objects around the house" - quite adorable to see a stack of childrens' books here!
@@MidwinterMinis Certainly a good shout. I like the jenga blocks too - gives me a ideas for the school Warhammer group me and a colleague just started for our kids!
Great video. Learned a lot and have already started to paint my Tyranids army. I will be sure to check out some of your other videos. Thanks for taking the time to go into detail and show us on screen on what to do on how to use the information provided.
Solid video! Thanks for your time and effort. The break down of rules, visual and comentary, are very helpful. I will be passing this on to my girlfriend as she is just now starting out in WH40k.
I’ve been watching this channel for a few weeks and I love the videos. Unfortunately I don’t have enough money to start, but I still love these types of videos
Don't pass up getting used/pre-painted models on ebay! You can score an absolute bargain sometimes. That's what I did when I started out in the hobby again and had a very limited budget.
Anytime there is a big release like 10th edition just now is the best time to get great deals, often people will buy the set and only want one army. Online stores such as element games also sell minis for up to 20% off.
Thank you for the great in depth breakdown of phases and abilities much appreciated great video for beginners or even veterans getting back into the game. I'm just getting into the hobby and this video gave me so much confidence to enjoy this awesome game!
I’ve been wanting to get into table top war games like this for a while now and this was amazingly helpful in making me understand how this game works and I’m excited to start my armies
That was really useful as a new player, thanks guys. That Hive Tyrant is a beast! Was a bit confused about the battle shock dice rolls but I see you said you mixed the dice up in the editing. Great vid though!
At 38:48 you reverted to ye olden 9th edition's morale check btw. You correctly explained that a low LD characteristic is good, then proceed to roll over it (which is nice) and state it's a failed test. (Which it is not^^)
OK... I am about at 36:26 ... well here a newcomer!!! For two years I am looking videos and tutorials to get a grip on the game (don't have books yet to read)... I admit that it's the first time I understood something and also the first time I did not close the video at the 5 minutes disgusted by how the things are done... Now after said that you accomplished what noone did before...I still have to say that I still can't continue to see the rest of the video because I have a headache... No it's not that what you say (the rules) are difficult, no... It's that they are too many and they usually look hidden, I mean how do you know ow this and that and remember the third and don't forget the forth... Common I just want to have some strategic fun with my monies not look at tables all the time amd calculate and try to think if I forgot something in the process like a weird ability or buff or what ever... Common this is not fun... But at least you explained the basics of how the system works , u like countless others that blabbing around by not getting through to you a single piece of information... Thanks...on 3 days that the headache will pass I will watch the rest of the video...
There are some things I’m liking in the 10th addition rules compared to 9th. It looks like a lot of stuff have been simplified or condensed for armies. Still wish alternating activation was a thing. Also wish all the codexes closer together, found it odd to have a late 9th for Tyranids and then a new 10th codex so soon afterwards.
YES THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED!! Thanks, this is very easy to get into in this format (btw, i love the random little og necromunda orlock dude who decided that chaos was the way to go for him :DD)
Great timing for this video. I just bought a Votann patrol e hearthkyn warriors to start my army! Now I have some idea of how it plays... just need friends to play =')
Great video!!! Wouldn’t even mind seeing another one with slightly larger armies and using things like transports, flyers and maybe some alpha striking strategies.
a better way to explain the fight phase is to say it as it is and split it up. we got Fight First and normal fight and when you charge you gain fight first for that turn. then you need to also remember that the opponent goes first. so we take the fight first models first, so the ones who charge, if the opponent had fight first rule, then it would be the opponent who would go first. then it is the normal fight, also starting with the opponent.
hey Guy, you forgott to take a 6+ feel no pain on the mortal wounds from your first missed hazardous test ^^ also, mistake on the feel no pain against the swarmlord attacks there, you have to roll 3 dice for each attack separatly since the damage from each attack does not spill and in this case you have to go 1by1 and ignore the fast dice rolling recommendations (2x3 dice in this case), meaning, if you manage to save the first attack on a marine with 2 results of a 6 you will only get 1 damage from that attack, then the next attack must also be allocated to the now damaged marine that survived the first attack with 1 wound remaining, so again 3 dice for a 6+ feel no pain. in this case whatever you throw with your dice, the damage wont spill over to your 2nd marine and he would not lose any wounds
Honestly, if Battle Reports were narrated like this, I would watch a ton more Battle Reports. Edit: I was delighted to discover you do, in fact, have such Battle Reports. Excellent.
ERRATA:
38:00 During the Battleshock Tests, the footage of the Cultists and Legionaries rolls were accidentally swapped in the editing process. To reiterate, you pass (and are safe) by rolling ABOVE your leadership value, and fail (become battleshocked) by rolling UNDER your leadership.

The leadership test thing appears to be backwards, you pass if the 2d6 is above the leadership
I do have a question though, Guy. Where _is_ Mrs. Witch?!
Regarding Twinlinked, I'm guessing it's because you can choose to reroll a successful wound in hopes of getting a 6 to trigger devastating wounds. Maybe?

I believe there is a mistake at 38:47, for battle shock your trying to get above the leadership not bellow it, so the cultist didn’t fail their test
by the looks of it and the narration, i reckon he mixed up the edit on the dice rolls, and they should have been the other way round.

Don't pass up getting used/pre-painted models on ebay! You can score an absolute bargain sometimes. That's what I did when I started out in the hobby again and had a very limited budget.
Anytime there is a big release like 10th edition just now is the best time to get great deals, often people will buy the set and only want one army. Online stores such as element games also sell minis for up to 20% off.
Thanks for the advice
This was a great video to watch whilst painting. I haven't played in years but this made it sound so easy to pick up. Thanks guys :)
Thank you for the great in depth breakdown of phases and abilities much appreciated great video for beginners or even veterans getting back into the game. I'm just getting into the hobby and this video gave me so much confidence to enjoy this awesome game!
I’ve been wanting to get into table top war games like this for a while now and this was amazingly helpful in making me understand how this game works and I’m excited to start my armies
That was really useful as a new player, thanks guys. That Hive Tyrant is a beast! Was a bit confused about the battle shock dice rolls but I see you said you mixed the dice up in the editing. Great vid though!
At 38:48 you reverted to ye olden 9th edition's morale check btw. You correctly explained that a low LD characteristic is good, then proceed to roll over it (which is nice) and state it's a failed test. (Which it is not^^)
Thank you guys so much!!! This is honestly the best tutorial!! Im so excited to dive into Warhammer!
Super useful to run through this, I recently came back and was overwhelmed by the sheer number of rules
This is so enjoyable, and I'm learning how to play ya'll awesome in teaching others.
OK... I am about at 36:26 ... well here a newcomer!!!
For two years I am looking videos and tutorials to get a grip on the game (don't have books yet to read)...
I admit that it's the first time I understood something and also the first time I did not close the video at the 5 minutes disgusted by how the things are done...
Now after said that you accomplished what noone did before...I still have to say that I still can't continue to see the rest of the video because I have a headache...
No it's not that what you say (the rules) are difficult, no... It's that they are too many and they usually look hidden, I mean how do you know ow this and that and remember the third and don't forget the forth...
Common I just want to have some strategic fun with my monies not look at tables all the time amd calculate and try to think if I forgot something in the process like a weird ability or buff or what ever...
Common this is not fun...
But at least you explained the basics of how the system works , u like countless others that blabbing around by not getting through to you a single piece of information...
Thanks...on 3 days that the headache will pass I will watch the rest of the video...
Very much enjoyed the video. You make an intimidating hobby seem a lot more easy to jump into. Thanks guys.
Great video! watched it all. Good voices not too nerdy didnt show your selfs casting spells you just stuck straight to teaching. I thank you for that!
This is a great tutorial and overview. Thanks a lot! Got to the point i was predicting the right saves and order of when to do it before the video!
A 1 hour midwinter minis video?
Wow, what a Guy.
Loved seeing the Orlock Ganger turned Cultist in that mob
There are some things I’m liking in the 10th addition rules compared to 9th. It looks like a lot of stuff have been simplified or condensed for armies. Still wish alternating activation was a thing. Also wish all the codexes closer together, found it odd to have a late 9th for Tyranids and then a new 10th codex so soon afterwards.
Awesome video. Thank you for putting in all the effort on this. Very informative!
That was great! your how to play 40k vids are the only ones I don't totally check out in
YES THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED!! Thanks, this is very easy to get into in this format (btw, i love the random little og necromunda orlock dude who decided that chaos was the way to go for him :DD)
Well spotted!
I just started warhammer and am working on a grey knight army and this video helped so much
This is a great video... And you teaches newbies an important lesson; if you wanna win you gotta play Tyranids.
Just started this week. Thank you so much. 🙏🏻
This video was exactly what I needed! Thank you
Good video guys! Clear and easy instructions.
This was not only informative, but also entertaining! Thanks so much for the video cant wait to start playing...when I get the money lol
Great job on this video. Super useful. Subscribed.
This Video is fantastic! Thank you guys for making this ❤
Great timing for this video. I just bought a Votann patrol e hearthkyn warriors to start my army! Now I have some idea of how it plays... just need friends to play =')
I just started getting into 40k, and I'm working on Tyrannids for my first army. They are cool.
Great video!!! Wouldn’t even mind seeing another one with slightly larger armies and using things like transports, flyers and maybe some alpha striking strategies.
a better way to explain the fight phase is to say it as it is and split it up.
we got Fight First and normal fight and when you charge you gain fight first for that turn.
then you need to also remember that the opponent goes first.
so we take the fight first models first, so the ones who charge, if the opponent had fight first rule, then it would be the opponent who would go first.
then it is the normal fight, also starting with the opponent.
Always wonderful guy
hey Guy, you forgott to take a 6+ feel no pain on the mortal wounds from your first missed hazardous test ^^
also, mistake on the feel no pain against the swarmlord attacks there, you have to roll 3 dice for each attack separatly since the damage from each attack does not spill and in this case you have to go 1by1 and ignore the fast dice rolling recommendations (2x3 dice in this case), meaning, if you manage to save the first attack on a marine with 2 results of a 6 you will only get 1 damage from that attack, then the next attack must also be allocated to the now damaged marine that survived the first attack with 1 wound remaining, so again 3 dice for a 6+ feel no pain. in this case whatever you throw with your dice, the damage wont spill over to your 2nd marine and he would not lose any wounds
Thanks just getting started really and this helps!
Thanks for this guys. It is a really nice guide and really helpful
I can't believe I watched the whole thing. Really cool.
I never have good luck rolling in D&D but when I play 40K I roll pretty well. I found out where all my dice rng went
Your first problem was playing d&d, welcome to the big boy table!
Yes!
I'm working on a Loyalist Thousand Sons army and will be using standards SM cards.
Lovely introductory video 🙂
Excellent - Thank you so much for this video!
Really great video lads - big thanks
Honestly, if Battle Reports were narrated like this, I would watch a ton more Battle Reports.
Edit: I was delighted to discover you do, in fact, have such Battle Reports. Excellent.
Dudes this was super fun, thank you!
