    Biggest Glow Up where inceptors +gman. You inceptors wound everything in the game on a 4+ with full rerrols to hits and wounds. u can kill any tank in the game with them.

    the new rule is goated in firestorm. If you can get inside 12 inches, you get +1 strength for the detachment rule, then also your +1 to wound from oath. Which means strength 4 weapons against tough 4 space marines and such, will wound on a 2+. Even crazier is that they will now wound on a 4+ versus toughness 9 units! Aggressors go crazy now, even without fire discipline

    • @vfminiatures

      Yes, the combination of strength bonus and +1 to wound is amazing for close range combat!

    It's really cool to see these units get a glowup, as four of those are among my favourite units! But then I remember I play Dark Angels and realize that I am stuck between picking these boosted units or the DA specific units which are just so cool 😢

  • @dannyhalas9408
    @dannyhalas9408 2 дня назад +1

    I'm only playing with friends, but I think the three Ballistus and Incursor squad combo is pretty good, super oath is the icing on the cake. Way too many wounds and AP shots for just 390pts to be honest. Re-rolling hits as a unit abilty is handy too, you can't always draw a bead on your oath target. Thanks for the tip.

    Quick one on putting a character in with the sternguard - totally worth it 😍. they should gain the sternguard focus on their melee attacks too. Re-rolling to hit and wound with a +1 to wound is going to be nasty for Pedro Kantor

    • @vfminiatures
      @vfminiatures  23 часа назад +1

      Actually very true! It might be a really strong combo to take Sternguard instead of Assault Intercessors for the Captain Combo and also have some shooting before going for the charge. You’d lose the chainsword attacks, but have more versatility with when you get RRs to wound and also more shooting

      @vfminiatures  18 часов назад

      Might be OK, but still the profile is way too weak for the price because you are paying the indirect tax. Might be worth a try, because 4s with full RRs isn’t terrible, AP would be a problem though

    I was playing around in unit crunch and the numbers for Redempters are still pretty bad, even with +! to wound. They are probably 30 points to high IMO.

    • @vfminiatures
      @vfminiatures  22 часа назад +1

      I was considering Cents, but I feel their problem of mobility is still limiting them to only a detachment or two, so adding them to the overall Top 5 felt inaccurate. Though, they definitely are now much stronger, +1 is especially useful for their grenade launchers

  • @thekrispiestkreme5609
    @thekrispiestkreme5609 2 дня назад

    They aren’t crazy good and people still clown on them, but I appreciate that reivers got that extra Ap. Especially in LAG going to strength 6 with ap1 precision knives can really cause trouble for those buff characters that you want to snipe out and cripple a unit, adding phobos LTs for that lethal really makes them scary
    Are you investing all that into a Riever unit? No but I don’t feel bad trading 80pts for a character and a less effective brick of something

    The Ballistus is in comparison with the Lancer so much weaker is crazy. The competition is not even close. 3 Ballistus with 1 Thunderstrike will deal less DMG than 2 Lancers. T12+ -3Ap and T10+ -2Ap on the guns is not good enough to build your anti tank on it.

    • @EverydayEldrad

      I also don't believe the ballistus is real but the lancer can also just whiff against invulns. That being said lancers freak ppl out so the psychological effect is kinda worth it

    If you have your 3 ballistus pointing at the single oath of moment target, you are going to lose the game. SM oath of moment mechanic is dated AF. Every other faction gets the same benefits but factionwide just by choosing a detachment.
