I picked the DoK for my army because I've always been fascinated with Greek mythology and ngl, I took one look at Morathi's snake form and I was sold. My husband is very annoyed because, with just a few strategic purchases, his Stormcast Eternals have yet to come close to beating my Daughters! Dumb luck and a love of Greek mythology from my days living in Korinthos nabbed me one of the most OP units in the all of AoS!
Once again, this is the best AoS series on RUclips. Also, super ASMR-friendly, insightful, humorous (but not in a pompous/dickish way like at least one popular AoS content creator that comes to mind), and always positive when due.
Absolutely fantastic, these are some of my favourite videos on RUclips and I’m glad you’ve released another one. About to watch now, hope all’s well with you HeyWoah and that you’re safe and healthy in these trying times
Yes! Oh my god, yes! I've watched through the other videos in this series a few times each, I really like them. This is great! Please, if you ever rummage for other video ideas, do the other factions in AoS. They're really great and the best of their kind on RUclips! :D
Doomfires aren't exactly worth forgetting just because they feel out of place. Running a single reinforced unit *does* give you a 20 wound, fast paced, table-clogging spell slinger. Need to control an endless spell far upfield? They're your guys. They also have almost equal melee and ranged prowess (not high but not forgettable) so if you really need to finish off a unit when a squishy battle line unit dies before finishing it off, they can do more than *just* sling those spells. They aren't even terribly priced for a cavalry caster unit... if they could bring a spell lore of your choice they'd probably be busted.
That's the crazy thing about DoK. Doomfire warlocks by any metric are actually Good, and in any other army they'd be played. I guess the water level in dok is just high enough that I never see them on the table.
@@HeyWoah I'm finally starting my daughters after ages of wanting to (just always felt too expensive financially compared to other armies I liked but found a great deal on a few things). I'm definitely planning to run a unit so I can throw endless spells around up the table.
Good guide. We need more of these and maybe some updates to existing videos. I really seem to struggle to find a place that fleshes out the playstyles of an army in a brief explanation.
Thank you cause almost everyone assumes if you're with the Champions of Order you're automatically that white knight goody-two shoes type character when that's not the case. Case in point the Daughters of Khaine they're a very brutal, very sadistic anti-heroine Dark Aelf faction who on more then one occasion have stepped into the role of anti-villains
As always an amusing, yet concise analysis of the army; thank you so much for making these videos :) I'd hoped for another narrative intro in the propaganda segment, as you'd done previously for the Mawtribes video, but I'm guessing you decided not to include it this time round in favour of the short summary of the Broken Realms instead (?)
@@HeyWoah Okay, understood. Well, even if they're discontinued for the Faction Focus, that mixed reaction does nonetheless prove the existence of a positive, receptive segment of your audience for the narrative stories, so if you ever feel like writing further narratives for separate videos then I'm certain you'll find many amongst your subscribers who would greatly support that. Honestly, I thought your Mawtribes narrative was very authentic to the source material, yet without becoming stale as a result; it revealed a fascinating side to the Mawtribes' society as creatures with a complex logic informing their (literal) consumer culture, and it actually helped to fill in the gap (for me at least) of why, when Glutos Orscollion is a thing, the ever-hungry Ogres aren't all enthralled to Slaanesh themselves; it's not gluttony on the Ogres' part so much as a hunger that is both necessitated by, and necessitates, the survival of nothing less than the strongest, whereas Glutos is now ever-hungry *because* he was weak (at least, that's my understanding of it.) But, yeah: no worries, and many thanks again for making such great quality content
Very cool videos, really helpful I would like to have a few sentences to the start collecting boxes if available, quickly talk about the units contain and if it's a good starting point for newcomers, I think that would be a nice thing to have Anyway keep it up, I'm eager to see your take on all the other interesting factions
So attempting to make a Doa list, and somehow get some Dark Elves in there to really hammer home the old total war feel. But when I add in the Dark Elves in the war scroll builder it says there not allies? Can't I just have two separate forces then combine them together?
This is probably a dumb question but do models who have both melee and shooting on both their warscrolls attack in both phases, or is it just one of the weapons that the model is equipped with.
They attack with whatever relevant weapons they have during any given phase. Just check the first paragraph to see which ones they get - sometimes it's not every one in the chart.
Honestly I’m torn between DoK, Kharadron, fyrelayers, and seraphon for my favorite order armies. But if I had to chose I think I’d give it to DoK simply because their models are better, plus snakes are cool.
I just started a DoK army (maybe they should be DoM now after Morathis ascension... DoooooM) But all I want is snakes and harpies and avatars for Christmas, so I probably won’t win a lot but it looks fun! :)
Envious are the fundamental-forced armies at this "cake where you can eat it too" battletome right at the fulcrum of power meets good design, the beasts of chaos and sylvaneth sigh
Iove the vid and dig the new intro but can we please have that sweet sweet throat signing come back with the new intro visuals plz?, it genuinely soothed my brain
I didn't because FeC is more about your monsters slapping shit while your troops are just kind of wiggly objective campers, where DoK is more about good troops juiced up to the max.
@@HeyWoah I don't see the big monsters as much nowadays. Maybe my locals are just bored of that style. I see a lot of the ogre sized flyboys but I do see your distinction, it;s more of a chaff wrapper around power pieces.
Your telling me I can have a statue T posing over my enemies while on a blood wagon full of a bunch of goth girls? You've convinced me
you're
I mean it is "his" telling. Let it slide fun police.
Lesson 6: assert dominance
Finally! My inner teenager fantasy can be fulfilled!
Big tiddy goth girls.
"Our enemies are demons and that means that we're the good guy's" lulz
Love it
The absolute madmen at GW. They not only included monster girls in their game, but made them great to play. Plus, absolutely beautiful models.

Just As Planned
Once again, this is the best AoS series on RUclips.
Also, super ASMR-friendly, insightful, humorous (but not in a pompous/dickish way like at least one popular AoS content creator that comes to mind), and always positive when due.
That double Genny joke had me reeling. Great work!
When HeyWoah perfectly channels your feelings about a battletome...insert Antonio Banderas' reaction GIF here.
Looking forward to a Faction Focus: Hedonites of Slaanesh.
I *almost* spat my drink. Cheers...
I would prefer maggotkin, but hedonites are cool too.
I wanted to paint some lamia, so I got a start collecting box... and now, 9 months later, have a huge army. Thank you for the content!
The quality on these just keeps getting better and better. Awsome job man.
Absolutely fantastic, these are some of my favourite videos on RUclips and I’m glad you’ve released another one. About to watch now, hope all’s well with you HeyWoah and that you’re safe and healthy in these trying times
BIG upload
Thank you internet opinion man! I already collect this army but the affirmation I received from this video was BIG
BIG upload, happy to watch after work (or during)
As soon as I see your videos it’s a windmill slam. Your deadpan style with humour is really great. Makes AoS really accessible
Recently found out about this channel and it's amazing. One of the best warhammer channels I've seen.
These are some of my favorite AoS videos on RUclips. A great concise blend of lists and lore. Gotta love it
This video is very cohesive and easy to understand. Thank you
The fact you used a Dead Alive/Brain dead clip makes my day.
I kick ass for the Lord...of Murder!!!
That "sippy cup" is really addicting to hear XD
Been checking your channel weekly for a new one of these!!!
Or just turn on notifications 😉
Man I missed these so much!!!
Dude, amazing timing!! I was hoping you where gonna make one of these sometime soon! The hype is real.
I miss old "mmmmmmmmmhmmmmhmhm" intruzów.
Take notes, Alarielle! Great vid
11:55
That’s the Gate of Babylon
Whelp...can't ever think of it as a sipppy cup from now on.
I love these, thank you. Brightens my whole week.
It’s been too long since one of these came out. I look forward to more.
Mono god chaos ones would be good.
Even if I don't play them, I always love these videos!
I miss the old sound bit that used to play at the start of your vids.
sry
Yes! Oh my god, yes! I've watched through the other videos in this series a few times each, I really like them. This is great!
Please, if you ever rummage for other video ideas, do the other factions in AoS. They're really great and the best of their kind on RUclips! :D
thank you dopemaster

I do like these Blood Elves. I hope the Shadow Elves have Spider Elves.
Good guide. We need more of these and maybe some updates to existing videos. I really seem to struggle to find a place that fleshes out the playstyles of an army in a brief explanation.
My twitch prime subscription finally pays off!
Thank you cause almost everyone assumes if you're with the Champions of Order you're automatically that white knight goody-two shoes type character when that's not the case.

The feedback on writing a narrative story intro was mixed at best. Some liked it but a lot thought it was cringe
@@HeyWoah Okay, understood.

Anyway keep it up, I'm eager to see your take on all the other interesting factions
Monster Musume the army
underrated comment
Great rundown. You get a like and a subscribe just on the "sippy cup" lines. Had me lol
*Let’s fucking go!*
So glad to see another faction focus. Great content.
Yay! I love these faction focus videos! Great job man!
*Please do more Faction focus videos .*
These are amazing, keep up the good work.
Me recuerdan mucho a la Sociedad Azteca pero con Matriarcado (Sociedad guerra con mucha mistica)
That's the impression I got as well, except with a bit of a greek look for visuals.
I'm looking forward to you sometime hopefully covering the Beasts of Chaos
Great video! Is there any chance that a Tzeentch video is in the works?
So attempting to make a Doa list, and somehow get some Dark Elves in there to really hammer home the old total war feel. But when I add in the Dark Elves in the war scroll builder it says there not allies? Can't I just have two separate forces then combine them together?
Generally you want Har Kuron, a City of Sigmar that can only take Dark Elves and have a fourth of their units be Daughters of Khaine.
@@Willie5000 ooohhh so no allies that are other elves like deepkin?
@@starguy1o163 Not that I'm aware of. They certainly don't get the one in four rule for Stormcast.
@@Willie5000 I know about that but I'm just seeing what else I can stuff my list with
Awesome to see another faction focus!
Been too long since the last Faction Focus. Keep’em up! 😃
Great job, and the Daughters are way expensive, but StregthHammer is right in loving this army!
heywoahBIG
Hurrah! Lots of fun HeyWoah. Thanks!
You keep getting better
BIG

Banger video bud
Can you use these with anvil gaurds iam new to warhammer and confused
Great to see you back! please tell me you are doing the new slaanesh next :D

DoK is my most favorite faction in AoS. My character in AoS: Soulbound is a Witch Aelf
Awesome review. When will you be doing your next one?
Please let future Idoneth battletome be like this, GW I beg you
Great video! I didn't know I had an interest in DoK before this.
Return of the king
I want to buy this army but I'm afraid of the looks my family will give. I wanna play this army as an elf horde but I don't think that will look good
@@TheRatsintheWalls I'm super new to the hobby. I've been debating with army to get for a while
@@TheRatsintheWalls The new soulblight grave lords and Bonereapers
God I wish they had put this much work into Fyreslayers... Still my favorite boys tho.
I just started a DoK army (maybe they should be DoM now after Morathis ascension... DoooooM)
But all I want is snakes and harpies and avatars for Christmas, so I probably won’t win a lot but it looks fun! :)
I miss that howling intro... Even if it was creepy AF.
Unexpected Fire emblem reference! Good work.
Been catching up on the twitch streams and happy to see a clip of Brain Dead...."I kick arse for The Lord.."
I can't get over how you call it a "sippy cup"
Where are the faction focus videos :((( I subbed for faction focus videos :(((
Welcome Back!
hay thanks for the content, was having a bad day, and then i saw this, :) good stuff thanks man
Where did the narrative introduction go? Of meta?
Awesome video btw ♥
A lot of people thought it was cringe to write little stories and narrate them at the beginning so I stopped
I hope slaanesh is soon I've done 3 games but still have no idea how to play the new book
Love these!
Another great video.
Can't wait for Ligions Of Nagash Video.
Too bad I can't thumbs up this more than once.
I know... it stinks.
DOUBLE GENNIES
Envious are the fundamental-forced armies at this "cake where you can eat it too" battletome right at the fulcrum of power meets good design, the beasts of chaos and sylvaneth sigh
My answer is for GW to keep doing this, raise that water level
I’d love to see a vid on sons of behemat. Would be a short but sweet vid.
Thanks for your hard work 👍
Iove the vid and dig the new intro but can we please have that sweet sweet throat signing come back with the new intro visuals plz?, it genuinely soothed my brain
awesome as always keep up the great content
Do love these videos keep them coming
Would love a FF on Kharadron Overlords. Great content man, keep it up
BIG
Your voice is really soothing HeyWoah! Ever thought of doing a podcast or something! Because you have a really nice voice (not in a creepy way).
If I did anything like a podcast I'd probably just turn it into a yt video. That outlet became streaming on twitch tbh
@@HeyWoah When do you stream?
@@UnicornSafetyPin75 mon is the aos show at 6 cst, otherwise wed, sat, sun for video games but also aos
@@HeyWoah Thanks! I will definitely be checking that out!
Having been away from AoS for a while, are Daughters of Khaine seems one of the most popular armies?
Not really where I am. Expensive to collect and lots of skin to paint. Also people either love or hate the look.
Are these part of the dark elves army
you keep me in this hobby
Well now I want to paint up some DoK
Surprised you didn't recommend FeC as another one that might appeal by playstyle?
I didn't because FeC is more about your monsters slapping shit while your troops are just kind of wiggly objective campers, where DoK is more about good troops juiced up to the max.
@@HeyWoah I don't see the big monsters as much nowadays. Maybe my locals are just bored of that style. I see a lot of the ogre sized flyboys but I do see your distinction, it;s more of a chaff wrapper around power pieces.
