I never understood the Tzaangor hate until I fielded them with my remaining points. They look pretty cool compared to the other basic daemon troops, but they're absolutely atrocious in combat. It took a single turn for all 10 axe wielding daemons to get killed with only a single casualty from the enemy.
For those getting into Orks, we're THE kitbash army. Roll up to a game with a shoe box with treads and guns glued to it and painted, and nobody has any right to tell you that's not a proper ork tank.
I was just about to say that, so I'll boost this. As the Kitbash army Orks also can be customized to be super thematic. For example, a classic is Pirate Orks! We also have the best 3d printing community (Pro tip - get Bluesky Mini's intro collection!)
"Their Artillery is a pipe organ. If that doesn't sell you on them, nothing well." As a Sisters Player, can confirm - the Exorcist is what got me into Sisters.
Ah yes Admech “the best shooting in the imperium” might have to edit that one until GW decides to give us new kneecaps to replace the ones they shattered
This was an impressive blitz. I love that unlike other videos I've seen you guys touch on not JUST lore for each faction, but manage to work in a little bit of the concept on the table and even on some of the meta-collector crap they're subject to. Great work guys!
Custodes, the Bugatti of super soldiers. Death Guard consist of competitive MTG players. Tyranids are the epitome of you are what you eat. My 3 favorite quotes from this. Well done gentlemen!
@@Blazik9 He's by far my favorite, really like his jolly demeanor and thorough coverage of aos army lore. He got me into animosity and while I really like that whole living campaign idea, I was looking for a 40k equivalent as well, as that is the system I'm more invested in.
The picture we put in the corner of the screen is just ctrl+f in the current index. That's the actual count, most of that document is just datasheets too, not even lore.
Death guard being an army in universe made of competitive magic the father players had me rolling. Great video, I think you did HeyWoah proud with this one.
No way…I thought it was just me! Seeing them raise from a broken back and the monolith send marines in the air was epic. I wish pariahs were still around…
Just got into this courtesy of my best friend. Starting with militarum and am psyked to get started. He got me elucidian starstriders and navis breachers for the holidays
YOU IN THE GUARD NOW BOY! As a fellow guard player it's nice to see another of our kind. No-one seems to play them which is weird cause they are crazy strong and capable.
you guys pushed me over the edge into buying 40k, got the 9th ed starter due to price, and decided to start with the necron half, but this will help me pick my second army
Im going to sell out for the chaos undivided space marines that dont have a strict set of rules or models but are some of my personal favourites, in no particular order: Iron warriors: grumpy half robot men would rather go full robot than see a tentacle mutate and replace an arm Night Lords: we recruited an entire planet's worth of supermax prisons into the space marines. It goes as well as you would expect. Red corsairs: pirates! In space! Space marine pirates! Alpha Legion: they embody an old military joke of "if we dont know what we're doing, the enemy certainly can't anticipate our future actions"
I'm only partly disappointed the Grey Knights section didn't start with something like "Do you like Doom? We took the Doomslayer, painted him silver, and made an army out of him."
"You chose to play Sgt. Johnson" No, I choose to play Sgt. Oddball, who has a very good reason to tell his crew to knock it off with the negative waves, thank you very much.
With the Grey Knights having their codex out, and having all the deep striking and teleporting in the world. We now need a quality, poorhammer lore expalanation of why they might still use transports. I suspect that a purgation squad in a Rhino is really working for the laughing god, and providing an entertainment performance, like someone going to buy grocieries in a unicycle
Orks are arguably the best faction for crafty folks as they in lore build from scrap and loot other armies vehicles to be their own. I have been making Killteam for other factions from orks. Currently have Gretknights, Deathwatch, and Custodes. Currently collecting parts to make Legionnaires and Death Guard.
My pitch for sisters of battle is that although their stats look poor at first, miracle dice make them always just barely good enough. Really need to squeak through that last point of damage on an enemy character? Or have just one member of your squad survive an artillery barrage to hold the objective? You'll be able to guarantee those things every time, its incredibly satisfying.
Very cool. A friend of mine and I were thinking of getting into warhammer. Last time I bought some in the 90s I remember many miniatures being metal and my paint skills were horrible. With my dad retired maybe I can give him bottles of whiskey and convince him to do the air brushing parts.
I really loved your starter box video. I was wondering of you guys could do a video on what should be included in a combat patrol for each faction based on the new points.
I love y’all’s videos and y’all have become one of my favorite channels. I would love to see videos maybe on army showcases of your whole play group and maybe another video on 3d prints y’all use or where to find cool prints
I’m a little sad I didn’t hear any mention of “war criminals” next to space wolves. Otherwise spot on. I’m absolutely here for the Egyptian space wizards and my only wish is for a few more magic things good at going after vehicles now that we don’t just deal mortals with psychic
My first Army was drukhari ... my current army is Drukhari!!!! I LOVE DRUKHARI !! I have only been playing since 8th and it's always the same in the beginning. This army is OP that army is OP. Let's let the game play out a bit before condemning the whole addition.
Tyranids my beloved! A good way I like to describe them is "more than just beasts", adapting not just biologically but also tactically. Constantly underestimated by all their opponents (except maybe the Eldar) the Tyranids brought everything. From the teeth, claws, swarm and monstrous to the guerilla, mines, EMPs and artillery, they WILL prove to you how little you are in the face of the eldritch Hive Mind.
Ork belief being manifested by their powers is actually something that is only suggested in the in universe lore, and only a couple of times. If looking at the lore that GW provides directly, they only talk about the Orks having innate knowledge about how to engineer things.
So is Krieg considered part of the Militarum in terms of “army”? I like 40k and have been on the fence about trying to get into the table top. I’ve been looking at Death Guard, Black Legion, Blood Angels, Salamanders, and Krieg.
Seriously chaps, if this doesn't quickly become your most watched video I'll be surprised. Concise and gives an actual players spin to it, not just rules lawyers and hypothesis.
Great video. I'm a noob to Warhammer and was having a tough time deciding what army I want to run. My local game shop is tiny, and only really had Tau, Ultra Marines, Death Guard (Which I was contemplating), Necrons, and Orks. My friends were already running Orks and Necrons, and I wanted something different, but nothing looked interesting...until I rummaged around and found a starter pack of Ad Mech. Their design sold me, and their lore sold me further. Now I just to finish assembling and painting the damn things.

love the fact that even though the episode is a speedrun Brad still finds time to discourage buying tzaangors at msrp
He found time to discourage to buy tzaangors at all, just “steal” them.
Suprised he didn't mention that rhino's are free.
It would be irresponsible if he didn’t
I never understood the Tzaangor hate until I fielded them with my remaining points. They look pretty cool compared to the other basic daemon troops, but they're absolutely atrocious in combat.

I field Tzaangors as Gors in my Tzeentch themed Beastmen for WHFB/TOW. 😞

Best kommandos are just the bases with purple footprints
@@Valyron1207i love this concept
The Ork rule is actually painted = legal.
warhammer world has an ork army that sorta just stole a bunch of Tau battlesuits and turned them into armour
"Your army is a subscription service" - no truer words have been spoken!
That bit about noise marines hit right in the feels, I just want to have an army of metalheads...
For once without actually needing real "metal" heads too =(
We will by the end of the year or the edition, patience…
Don't you dare buy that Rhino at MSRP.
You can, just use Orks lmao
There's a mystery codex coming out this summer and I'm huffing enough copium to believe it's gonna be Emperor's Children
"Their Artillery is a pipe organ. If that doesn't sell you on them, nothing well." As a Sisters Player, can confirm - the Exorcist is what got me into Sisters.
For me it was just the nuns with guns
@@thierryfaquet7405For me it was the lore during the age of apostasy and the badass that is Alecia Dominica
The death guard being all magic players killed me, I play magic as well as 40k, and that's actually an army I wanted to start
As a magic player that started last month with wh40k aaand death guard i approve
Wait holy shit my dad plays magic and his first army was death guard
Mine will be too, looking up videos all day long already (also an mtg player))
The editor going overdrive here
Give the goat a raise fr fr
Your speedrun is good, but I noticed you didn't do the GW double dread skip that allows you skip emperors children
Ah yes Admech “the best shooting in the imperium” might have to edit that one until GW decides to give us new kneecaps to replace the ones they shattered
This. I can at least have a good time painting them until GW decides to/accidentally makes them playable again but it was still rather rude of them

God bless HeyWoah, the only entertaining AoS creator in his league.
tbh there aren't many AoS specific creators
Yeah he’s amazing. Vince I would also give a shout-out.
I recommend 2+tough for lore. Really helped me get into aos
@@Blazik9 He's by far my favorite, really like his jolly demeanor and thorough coverage of aos army lore. He got me into animosity and while I really like that whole living campaign idea, I was looking for a 40k equivalent as well, as that is the system I'm more invested in.
For real, I don't even play AoS but I still enjoy watching him!
Fun fact, there are more units with Wulf/Wolf/Wolves in the space wolf codex than there are units period in the leagues of votann codex.
The picture we put in the corner of the screen is just ctrl+f in the current index. That's the actual count, most of that document is just datasheets too, not even lore.
There are more space marine units then the entire eldar range, the dark eldar range, harelquins and the votan added together,
What's with all the math, guys?
"And Tzeench found a gun in his dad's closet."
*Pumped Up Kicks Intensifies*
I love the HeyWoah inflections in the delivery, and even a bit of his humor!
As close as Poorhammer will get to Filler Content, because we're between seasons and waiting on the mangaka to catchup.
Death guard being an army in universe made of competitive magic the father players had me rolling. Great video, I think you did HeyWoah proud with this one.
Necrons: You play them because the first foray into 40K was Dawn of War 1 and you got to see a Monolith ACTUALLY ACT LIKE A FREAKING MONOLITH
No way…I thought it was just me! Seeing them raise from a broken back and the monolith send marines in the air was epic. I wish pariahs were still around…
U need to have the dark crusade expansion if anyone was thinking of paying my childhood a visit to see the necrons :3
"Deathguard are a faction solely composed in universe of competitive Magic The Gathering players" 😂😂😂 take my sub, you earned it 10/10
I think one caveat for genestealers being expensive is that their combat Patrol is the most amazing in the entire game
Custodes may be outnumbered 5-1, but it’s a good thing they can kill at a rate if 7-1
Just got into this courtesy of my best friend. Starting with militarum and am psyked to get started. He got me elucidian starstriders and navis breachers for the holidays

I like how you guys adopted some of HeyWoah's mannerisms when talking in this one lol.
Watching it now, but I'm losing it at the Tyranid the Hedgehog opening. And seeing Heywoah was neat, I love his Age of Sigmar videos.

Really need to squeak through that last point of damage on an enemy character? Or have just one member of your squad survive an artillery barrage to hold the objective? You'll be able to guarantee those things every time, its incredibly satisfying.
It would have been great to explain all the factions in terms of gameplay style e.g. tanks, horde, glass cannons etc.
I just found your channel and I’ve been binge watching everything. This is great. Thanks!
This was really well written.
New to this channel but there was a lot of thought put into the script and I appreciate it.
I can easily see this video being an auto recommend for new players over the next few years. Great work!!!
amazing video! Really helpful for a new player, i just bought a bunch of Khorne Daemon units, Khorne is my god!!
i love that one of the biggest pluses for sisters is getting to cheat at dice in a dice game, because thats exactly what hey do and it's awesome
Great run-through! I'll be passing this to some friends who are new to 40k and who could use this as a quick primer.
I was hoping to hear you guys ramble for 20min for each army. Still great.
Great faction overview for those just getting into the table top!
Very cool. A friend of mine and I were thinking of getting into warhammer. Last time I bought some in the 90s I remember many miniatures being metal and my paint skills were horrible. With my dad retired maybe I can give him bottles of whiskey and convince him to do the air brushing parts.
Already listened to it on Spotify. Very funny and informative Video. I will watch it another 5 times for infos probably

It's 40k. War crimes are given for every faction.
@@samb.8134missed the joke.
Refer to prior episodes. We all know that the space wolves are war criminals for Prospero.

death guard: the faction everyone’s dad plays
yes, the eldar are the coolest thing ever. this was accurate.
I love the Eldar models! Want to build a craft world army myself... But I'm hesitant because I only see a lot of negativity around the "space Elves."
First army was Tyranids, mostly because they draw no distinctions. It's all food. Good, bad..... I'm the guy with the teeth.
Good video for the topic. Also a decent mix of humor and info much like heywoah.
Awesome video run through and just what I was looking for. Keep up the great work!
As the biggest tyranids fan and the biggest sonic fan that opening was the best thing I've ever seen
Damn, they were speedrunning so hard they didn't even find time to slander Tau

Thank you. Amazing video so helpful.
Wow, the admech section instantly aged poorly
As a brand new player, the space nuns really appeal to me
Chaos Knights. When being giant is awesome and driving a daemon is even more awesome!
The Warhammer universe has it all!
They weren't lying. GW really do hate the quins.
Everything is food, and there are no more complicated thoughts. Couldn’t have sold nidds better myself.
this was super funny and helpful as someone who kinda wants to learn to play
This was an amazing watch and I don't even play 40k
2:23 yeah about that…
So sad, don’t even play blood angels and was disappointed.
I really felt the Emperors Children anecdote... It hurts... Makes furious 😢
That shot about competitive mtg players is spot-on and brilliant.
So is Krieg considered part of the Militarum in terms of “army”? I like 40k and have been on the fence about trying to get into the table top. I’ve been looking at Death Guard, Black Legion, Blood Angels, Salamanders, and Krieg.
The Guard is split between regiments they all follow standard Guard rules but some (Krieg, Cadia, Atilla, Catachan) have unique Units.
Best description yet
Thanks, gonna go order Tzzangors now !
Seriously chaps, if this doesn't quickly become your most watched video I'll be surprised. Concise and gives an actual players spin to it, not just rules lawyers and hypothesis.
Thank you for this funny and interesting video!!
owning the most expensive faction but is the lowest win:lose ratio and forgotten by GW… Gotta love my toaster boys
I'm a mtg player and i was thinking of getting into Warhammer.
i absolutely loved the references to mtg
"I hope we did your army justice..." Cries in Emperor's Children 🥲

I look forward to this every week.
that sonic intro was very cool
I’m ecstatic because of the fact that you didn’t say fish people.
AWESOME video for us beginners
I play guardsman and I plaint them OD dark green or tan. Why? Cuz I loved toy soldiers as a kid!
DG: have you ever rolled battleshock?
Custodies: no why?
DG: do ya wanna????
There is no army i dont like aesthetically in 40K
Black templars are the legion that everyone thinks racists play, deathwatch is the legion that actual racists play
Idk whether the script or the editing was the high point, but Holy Shit am i getting on the Patreon train!
No mention of White Scars. Seems legit.
They’re all the same anyway. Just different paint colors
white scars dont have special rules
I would love to see heywhoa on the show for an aos themed episode
Thank God you didn't call the Tau socialists or commies...cause technically they are an imperialistic caste system....
And commies too!!! :)
Yeah. Craftworlds are the closest to communist tho they're more just post scarcity
HeyWoah is one of my favorites
