Been using aquilon terminators and can confirm they are under rated. Cost wise they are costly but what they provide is a deepstrike that is very flexible
Awesome report as always. Loved the armies. Generally like what they did with knights I think. Chef, i did notice that the Achillus Dread didn't take any of its 6+++ feel no pains though, might have spared him his grisly demise for a little bit longer ;)
You should try out team England’s Knight list. 10 little guys and 1 paladins giving them re-rolls and 4+ invulns. While it’s a tournament list I’m curious to see how spamming armigers plays on the table
CHEF your dreadnought has a FNP!!! Ahh that penitent boy could have finished his warlord potentially. Great game though, real nail biting back and forth
@@thepastrychef8014 ahh you have to believe in the 6+ FNP! It’s a great batrep anyway, don’t mean to be pedantic. It’s just that I know from experience it does usually help keep stuff alive
The video ended on that hard cut--and INSTANTLY the Disney logo appeared on my screen as a Disney+ ad started, advertising the Book of Boba Fett no less XD
Solar Watch makes Custodes seem far more fun to play. I do not need another army o.0 Those extras on charges, advances really helped! Great game as always. This was a great choice for freeview so folks can see what us on demand bosses get all the time :D
@ThePastryChef You should try to do a REVERSE COMMAND POINT REROLL game. You spend your CP rerolls as normal, except you make your enemy reroll. Spice it up and make it the ENTIRE roll as well for wounds and hits. For science, of course.
@The Pastry Chef Do you think it’s still possible to build a Custodes list that can compete with the top tier armies? Every time I think of armor of contempt I wince. If you could make a change would it just be to revert the obsec change?
Yeah they can definitely still compete, I think people will just need to experiment and try out certain things. The ObSec change I'd definitely revert however, I don't think ObSec Captains were breaking the game. I'd also probably let Auspice be usable on anyone again, especially since its once per game
@@thepastrychef8014 the once per game change to the Strats was brutal, I thought an increase in CP would of sufficed or even a possible use once per battle round

3+4 or 3+5 seems to be the best combos for imperials. That lets you spread bondsman buff nicely (when considering exalted court making the ability go on 2 armiger)
Fantastic game! I'm a new golden boys player and love the content you guys create! I thought the alchemy strat is only available once per game? Not trying to be "that" guy but I am curious as I am still learning.
You guys are definitely getting copyrighted for this battle report🤣， and there should be a “punch it” reference when the knight punches the captain. Love the report, it was awesome!
Chaos Knights get it with Iconoclast Imperial get it with House Griffith Here we didn't use them, but they had +1 to Hit due to one of his Code Chivalrics
So many star wars quotes I'm amazed Disney didn't DRM this video. Two super small model count armies square off and it was pretty much the attrition game I thought it would be. How do you guys think it would have turned out with a single knight and the rest of the list were armigers or the like?
I imagine they'll get updated, but can't see them getting a bondsman ability. That's the trade off for better weapoms, ignore cover and a combat invun 😅
I run three magaeras ar the moment with three moiraxs or three warglaive. Do you think I should trade one or more of the magaeras for standard knights to get the bondsman abilities?
@@thepastrychef8014 dog gammit, that's so easy to miss! Chef's kiss!!! Little guys are cool! (Love my Magma dice btw) keep it up, greetings from Mexico City
Can someone clarify when he said at the start of the video master of vox allowing 2 bondsman abilities to be given from one knight basically it can be used twice is that correct or wrong?
All Exalted Court upgrades, regardless of what they are, let you do your Bondsman ability twice so long as you are at least Honoured. It's in addition to any other abilities.
Love Imperial Knights Love Adeptus Custodes Love the paint jobs Love scenery Not a fan of the people that ruin it. Funny at times, but mostly annoying. Otherwise great batrep 👍
ok so i'm a fan and all but as a knight player i PAINS me to see you use dominus class weapon to represent something that was in the questorus kit, also why doesn't he have a side gun?
We don't actually have a Preceptor, so it's a reasonable proxy. Your the first to say anything I guess 😅 As for his gun, it must've fallen off. The Enginseers have been dispatched!
When you used Slayers of Nightmares you weren't wrong that you can use it on the bikes but a wound roll can only be modified by +/- 1 so with the bikes already adding 1 with the Lance. So the slayers doesn't really add anything and result on them wounding on 3s still.
Actually i´m turning this into a drinkin game, like take a shot for every movie reference Star Wars, john Wick or any other for that matter. This one is what I call a really fun, friendly game.😁
I'm enjoying that whoever is behind the camera nowadays quips in every now and then compared to being silent
💪
That was an impressive amount of star wars. I appreciate that James actually remembered basically what Sebulba said when he crashed 😄
It's close enough 😅
That was the only good Star Wars ever made. Episode I. I've been saying that since afore Episode VII was released, but, I find the statement stands.
"nyaaaaaaaaeeeeaaaaaaaaaagh........... PUDDoo!"
Those custodes are wonderfully painted. Really a work of art
They're lovely aren't they
Never would I thought i'd see the day that the opponent's army has less models than the custodes.
It does happen!
Titans: hey I still exist
This was an absolute delight!
Cheers!
I'm so proud of Chef for not giving into the CP reroll.
Beautiful armies. Outstanding stuff as always TT!
Thanks!
Always love seeing Custodes being played, even if I think Aquilon terminators are now much more killy than Allarus and no one uses them!
Because they're overcosted
I think they're still good 🤷♂️ Alas we only own 3 aquilon
Aquilon's are over costed money wise, my poor wallet everytime I buy forgeworld models.
Been using aquilon terminators and can confirm they are under rated. Cost wise they are costly but what they provide is a deepstrike that is very flexible
I have six I just play guard now since custodes are too meta for me
Chef has been on fire lately with his presenting 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 James and Katie tearing it up too...LOVVEEDDDDDD the video ❤️
The Daleks are pleased with the references at the beginning of the battle lol.
Awesome report as always. Loved the armies. Generally like what they did with knights I think.
Chef, i did notice that the Achillus Dread didn't take any of its 6+++ feel no pains though, might have spared him his grisly demise for a little bit longer ;)
I done a forgot!
Nothing like a great battle report with the Chef and the Bard! Also, those Star Wars references and quotes were on point *chefs kiss*.
We did what needed to be done haha
I appreciated Servoskulls rendition of Arcane Genetic Alchemy!
She tries her best
@@thepastrychef8014 I think she grasped its essence.
Custodes I love my golden boys, and they are so beautifully painted.
Great jobs fellas
💪
I really hope this batrep was recorded on May 4th 😊 loved the Star Wars references. Very enjoyable watch!
Im almost willing to pay to see Chef going all "Its treason then" on a last dice in a save chain.
Can't believe I missed the opportunity for that 😅
I caught that Tenacious D reference James! A true bard indeed!
🤘
Great balance between entertainment & tactical gameplay! Really enjoyed the Star Wars riffs! 🤟😎
I liked the part where the big stompy robot shot at the janitor
Anybody else notice around the hour mark chef had 33CP and only 2VP haha i know hes not using CP rerolls but thats impressive
Nice chemistry my dudes! It's a Joy to watch
Cheers!
My 8 month old was getting impatient for his TTT fix this morning, fastest I've ever started a video 🤣
Well we can't have that 😅
Cp re-roll...chef staring at the dice. "you want this?". "I can feel..the hate, flowing through you". Especially at the 48:43 Mark.
🤣
Fantastic battle report! can we have a video of the boys teaching jinx how to do all the silly voices XD
Hilarious Star wars references BTW! 🤣
😅
Didnt end with 'May the force be with you?'..... Amazing game. Funny af
Damn it 🤦♂️
You should try out team England’s Knight list. 10 little guys and 1 paladins giving them re-rolls and 4+ invulns.
While it’s a tournament list I’m curious to see how spamming armigers plays on the table
That is one beautiful custodies army. That glossy purple is something else.
It's lovely isn't it
I like the army color schemes you guys come up with!
Cheers!
I quite like the new layout for the dice-roll view. It does feel a bit easier to read at a quick look than the older one.
That was the aim 💪
See, instead of having a bad feeling, I feel like that Dreadnought would have been "Holding a thermal detonator!!!"
1:26:59 Everything I needed today!
Really enjoyed this one :) Brought a smile to my face after a rough day at work!
What fun another great battle report. From the greatest bat rep channel.
Cheers! 💪
Knights look really tempting lately
They're certainly very fun!
CHEF your dreadnought has a FNP!!! Ahh that penitent boy could have finished his warlord potentially. Great game though, real nail biting back and forth
Doh
@kane666day Not according their rules they don't?
The Emperor of man kind sitting on the golden throne : "...Unlimited powaaaAAAA !!!"
I mean, same energy
@TabletopTactics
Chef completely forgot the Custodes Contemptors have a built in 6+ FNP (Unyielding Ancient)... it shouldn't have died turn 2...
It might not have, no guarantee.
Still, one forgotten rule out of several hundred isn't bad 😅
@@thepastrychef8014 ahh you have to believe in the 6+ FNP! It’s a great batrep anyway, don’t mean to be pedantic. It’s just that I know from experience it does usually help keep stuff alive
Those custodes! Just look at them! Even the bases are fantastic.

i just get this weird sense that any of the dudes here at TT could have played an iteration of Dr. Who.

Yeah I like them for their utility 👌
Is there a game between Custodies and Tsons in the schedule?
@ThePastryChef You should try to do a REVERSE COMMAND POINT REROLL game. You spend your CP rerolls as normal, except you make your enemy reroll. Spice it up and make it the ENTIRE roll as well for wounds and hits.

Those Custodes are insane! How were they painted?
Carefully
I can't tell from the camera angles, but I think it's with paint
Brilliant game.
I do hope to see the astra militarum soon. Maybe with some scion back up?
Finally!
Everyone seems to be doing reports with 3 big 4 little. Is this the best perceived way to run?
Yeah, the synergies seem to lend themselves best to that layout outside of some specific builds
@@thepastrychef8014 thank you for the reply, love the content. I was hoping 2 knights with more armigers was going to be the best way.

Thank you for another realy nice batrep 👍
You're welcome!
I came for the 40k content, I stayed for the Star Wars content. 🤙
Absolute crack up of a battle report :D
dunno if it would've made a difference but the Preceptor never fired its Multi-laser the whole game
I think we fired it a few times off camera. It made no difference 😅
Ahhh I see, understandable my good sir 🙃👌
What's the paint colours used for those custodes?
Jinx's attempt at "ARCANE GENETIC ALCHEMY" at 1:16:40 made me snort audibly
The best kind of snort I suppose 😅
3:33 i dont think master vox can give 2 bonds, it allows you to ignore range of the bonds.
All Exalted Courts let you do Bondsman twice though
oh nice
@@thepastrychef8014 what ? Why would u want the oath to alow you to do it twice then?
I'm a simple lad. I see custodes I leave a like and subscribe.
Good lad!
as always , chef appreciation post

Fantastic game! I'm a new golden boys player and love the content you guys create! I thought the alchemy strat is only available once per game? Not trying to be "that" guy but I am curious as I am still learning.
No, a few were changed to once per game but Alchemy wasn't one of them (I checked multiple times to be sure haha)
outstanding. stance, great show.😊
You guys are definitely getting copyrighted for this battle report🤣， and there should be a “punch it” reference when the knight punches the captain. Love the report, it was awesome!
Glad you enjoyed!
Where in the codex does it say Knights get an extra attack in the first round of combat? I keep hearing people say it but I can't find it anywhere.
Chaos Knights get it with Iconoclast
Imperial get it with House Griffith
Here we didn't use them, but they had +1 to Hit due to one of his Code Chivalrics
@@thepastrychef8014 I misheard what he said, I'm gonna get another cup of coffee, it's the morning and obviously I haven't had enough yet.
So we're the sisters holding a point in the back or did they just get forgotten?
Scoring me 4VP and my CP every turn for the Mission. Not forgotten, but doing a vital job 😁
@@thepastrychef8014 I see. Well thanks for the game. I will be sending this to my friend who is building both custodes and imperial knights!
Achillus Dread has 6+ FNPs. Unless i missed Chef rolling for them.
Imperial Knight Army list when?
So many star wars quotes I'm amazed Disney didn't DRM this video. Two super small model count armies square off and it was pretty much the attrition game I thought it would be. How do you guys think it would have turned out with a single knight and the rest of the list were armigers or the like?
I think that lends itself more to Chaos Knights, Imperial Armigers want those sweet Bondsman buffs
Did I miss something, or are you allowed to Deep strike in enemy deployment zone in turn 2? I thought that was for turn 3.
That's only Strategic Reserves that are limited like that 🙂
@@thepastrychef8014 Wow, I've been playing it wrong. Thanks!
typo I think 57:55, 33 cp!
Yup
I wonder if there will be changes soon to the forgeworld knights? Will the magaera get a bondsman ability?
I imagine they'll get updated, but can't see them getting a bondsman ability. That's the trade off for better weapoms, ignore cover and a combat invun 😅
I run three magaeras ar the moment with three moiraxs or three warglaive. Do you think I should trade one or more of the magaeras for standard knights to get the bondsman abilities?
Is there changes in new knight codex, about movement, because in the old one, halverins can't climb on buildings etc.....
It's not a building, it's a hill
:)))))ok, it is a hill....my mistake:))
Whoop Whoop, GO CHAOS!!! Oh wait, wrong game 😅
You're a week late
Did I miss the unyielding ancient rolls for the Achillus?
You missed me forgetting about them completely 😅
@@thepastrychef8014 fool of a Took 😂
RIP the multi-laser on the Perceptor.
It was done of camera when we remembered, and it did nothing (probably as punishment for being forgotten)
to make a good balanced knights list you need a forgeworld knight I feel which is annoying for many reasons
Not really, I think you can absolutely do it from the Codex
Hey guys, I just can't find where in the rules it says I can reduce damage if I'm honoured, could you please help me?
It's in the box about Bondsman abilities on the Datasheet Abilities page

Can someone clarify when he said at the start of the video master of vox allowing 2 bondsman abilities to be given from one knight basically it can be used twice is that correct or wrong?
It's incorrect. It allows you to use your bondsman ability on any armiger on the field and refunds a cp on a roll of 5+.
All Exalted Court upgrades, regardless of what they are, let you do your Bondsman ability twice so long as you are at least Honoured. It's in addition to any other abilities.
@@thepastrychef8014 wait really is that an actual thing if it is YEEESSSSSSSSSS
Poor Bard soo unlucky dice 😁
horrified to see custodes with 33 CP and only 2 VP as per the small but substantial typo
great game
Glad you enjoyed!
Good to see that Reddit was correct and that Custodes were nerfed into the ground and are totally unplayable now.
Love Imperial Knights
Love Adeptus Custodes
Love the paint jobs
Love scenery
Not a fan of the people that ruin it. Funny at times, but mostly annoying.

Getting all those shots on the custody bikes and unable to use a defensive stratagem is depressing
