    After watching a half dozen or so other content creators who have reviewed the OBR tome I wanted to revisit this vid and say that yours is by far the best - Not to say the other guys haven't done a fantastic job, you've just done it better.

    I am new to Age of Sigmar and this video absolutely sold me on the army. Cool abilities. Cool spells. Cool characters. Cool units. Not a lot of extraneous units. Concise army with some flexibility.and build paths.
    Rob's enthusiasm and insightfulness are very, very helpful.
    I have just built my vanguard box and slowly deciding on my first list. I have listened to this video 3 times now. It's a very helpful way to digest the loads of gameplay info.

    Reading it over again this morning, I did not have remorse buying into a faction during the hype yesterday which is always good. In fact, I think I like the book even more giving it another pass after some sleep. So much so that I am looking into the feasability of getting a plumed helm and a plotting rod to fully commit to the bit as I marshal my rank and file. As ever, it was great going the distance on another long stream. Thank you for your service. Get some rest.

    After a few days of listening to reviews, I love that the OBR have a way to get to back line support characters without having to hack through the front line. The rider and Stalkers being able to move over units gives you some good back line threat with the limited deep strike capabilities.
    There are so many ways to buff this army it's great. There are so many units with high armor now, being able to easily get -2/3, or higher, is great!
    What I like most about this army is that it requires thought to time and apply all of your overlapping buffs. It's not just point and click army.

      i dont think so yet, at least in obr. 965 feels at least 100, maybe 200 points too expensive for what he does. While obr units are pretty good, none of their units are particularly points efficient - certainly not efficient enough to absorb a 200 point deficit in a 2000 point game.
      Arkhan + Katakros will do more for you than Nagash, while costing 150 points less.
      I do like this warsctoll much more than the previous one though. If the points cost does come down you will see him on tables.

    The army is deceptively powerful with the buffs you can give out, most of them reliable (most of it is empower nadarite weapon + endless duty, for the first you could cast with the command trait). Even spear kavalos can do just under fulminator damage with the full array of buffs, which is insane considering death wedge and 6" pile in.

  • @robertviscomi8199
    @robertviscomi8199 Год назад

    Question Rob regarding the inmortis guard. Could you put them in a galetian body guard unit. Have them fight for strike at the opening then fight again in the combat phase and use their command ability to fight a third time?

  • @Malisteen
    @Malisteen Год назад

    re: mortek guard. they're probably a bit overpriced at 150, i think 130 would be the sweet spot, but they have the most attacks in the army per point/footprint so they absorb offensive buffs very well, and wound characteristic 1 means they absorb healing the best too.
    Eg imagine a reinforced unit with support from a soulmason, liege, and harvester. soulmason forces out the -1 to hit and save on target enemy unit, multicasts to get +1 wound on the morteks, maybe gets exploding 5s off. liege gives them +1 attack. small bases h spears they all seing. in the combat phase, they use bludgeon on themselves. 60 attacks, 50 hits (40 w/o exploding 5s), 33 wounds (26 w/o exploding 5s) at effective rend -3? if anything is left to fight back they have 4+, 6++, 4+++ (from the harvester). in crematorians each one killed in melee explodes for a mortal on 5+ /before/ the harvesters roll to bring them back. seems pretty solid to me
    obviousy you can't give them every buff in the book since you'll only have points for so many support units, but it only takes 2-3 buffs to make them real brawlers. Several obr support units either work in an aura (katakros, harvester) or can affect multiple separate units (mason, shaper w/ key), allowing you to double dip on buffs & heals off the same support units if running multiple mortek units.
    again, i do agree 150 for 10 is too much, esp with their lowish to-wound score, but you will see them on the table and they will wreck face.

    I really like the Mortisan Soulreaper model, but feels really lackluster. Like it’s the last model GW made rules for or something and just said good enough. Should’ve at least given Soulreaper the insta kill ability from previous model.
    Haven’t been very excited about this faction in the past when I first started AoS, but Crematorians with exploding skeletons slowly moving towards the enemy and regenerating to explode again sounds like a lot of fun! Hope do get to put some theorycrafting list(s) together for this one!

    Soulreaper actually sounds pretty good. Most units have 5 or more models, use flaming weapon and this guy is pounding for -2 rend 3 damage attacks with exploding 6s! In Ivory host you can have 3 hits per 6, or this guy is killy enough to wound a unit before your other units attack to give them the 3hit exploding instead. A killy melee hero and a full wizard for 120 points? Not bad. And that is before you start talking about command traits and/or artifacts. Being a Mortisan is also important and many chars like Arkhan are not.

    At first I got bummed out that Stalliarch lords got changed but after listening I see it as a sleeper sub faction. Can definitely see it as two ways of play.
    We can go hyper aggressive with our Kavalos and debuff enemies and counter charge which lets us not fear getting charged first.
    Or we can make haste to capture control points and tank hits with buffs.
    While I will miss the advance and charge or fallback and charge as our innate ability, I believe this gives Stalliarch lords more strategic capabilities and functions.

    I love the way they updated most pf these rules. a few minor complaints - crawler does too little damage, vokmortian still overshadowed by soulmason (vok should have +1 to cast/dispel, mason shouldn't be loremaster), soulreaper still just bad & needs a total rethink, subfaction design is questionable, and several of the points values seem to be too high (morghasts, immortis, mortek guard, crawler, nagash).
    but i love the faction traits, and most all of the warscrolls, and even if im right abt some of the points costs being too high, worst case is they come down over time.
    all in all the devs did a great job on this one, imo.

  • @Malisteen
    @Malisteen Год назад

    i think the devs are still snakebit over how strong the crawler was in late 2e. unfortunate, because its damage output is so low that a points decrease can't really fix it. 200+ points is the right cost for it, make it cheap enough to match the low damage & people will start to spam it, which doesn't really fit the fluff and would be awkward on the table with how big the models are.
    they really do just need to hit harder, and I can't see that happening before a 4th ed obr tome.

      Arkhan pretty much covers your magic, and restores almost a Mortek Guard worth of units each turn. Katakros is AoE AoA and AoD and also restores a Mortek Guard worth. So that is like, 300 points a turn of wounds/models returned almost assuming you get wounds?

      If you think of using mortek crawlers (they have to be *2) or gothizzard you almost ended your points. Arkhan and Katakros are not so good in CaC so they can't keep up the opponent units.
      I totally agree with coordination and cooperation abilities in an army. But it's also true that of you include both of them you limit your options.
      They are named characters, so you need at least another one not to throw away artifacts and command trait and that means that you spend half amount points avalaible on only 3 models. If Ossiarch Bonereapers base units would be cheap it would be feasible, but they are not.

      on the other hand, morteks are 150, kav 170, immortis 200, morghasts 240. And our artillery does like half the damage of the ogre cannon for the same cost, so we won't be forcing anyone to come to us which makes the army's slow movement more punishing. And we don't have any gnoblar equivalent for points efficient wounds & bodies to grab objectives or screen for our key units & combo pieces.
      the support heroes are well priced, but once you start making lists it's very easy to run out of points before you have a functional army for them to support.
