    I had this with Reivers in the Phobos list. People thought i had lost it when i said i give my reivers carbines or god forbid i made a pure reiver list. It was so much fun to use and i won the games.

    I love Tyranids (hive fleet). They're known for having some pretty lackluster shooting options, especially compared to double shoot elite teams. Most people correctly assume them to be primarily a melee threat.
    I tried a sneaky little adaptation of my own.
    3 warriors, 4 gaunts, 4 gants. One of the warriors was a weapon beast. Most people see that list and say, "The leader, gunner, and gants are the player's shooting options and will hang back, I'll range them down."
    My weaponbeast and all gaunts have acid maw.
    The sheer disbelief at certain combos, like GA2 belching what is ostensibly a bolt gun at people as i push to cover on GAUNTS always makes me smile, and it's usually good to catch a person off guard if they've never faced it.

    Needing to buy second box and painting a bunch of extra models to cover the lower frequency use but marginally better load outs is a bit annoying. Covering the extra options for the gunner, heavy gunner and the leader would be nice but frustrating from what GW provides.
    So i guess trying to build the "best all round" from a limited set leads to using plasma pistol and not building flamer and missile launcher

    I remember when I first started playing I went with Corsair Voidscarred and my buddy told me to take the gunner with the blaster and not make the kurnite hunter. Sucks that I couldn’t just make all of them in one box but I do wish that I made like an extra generic warrior or the heavy gunner instead of the bird man cuz it really does suck.

    5:02 id say u do mission, charge, melee and then play the khorne ploy to engage the other guardsmen, if u go for the double melta can still reach u with a move action, if it cant oponent can give it +1 apl with his comms so he just move dash shoot, with the chosen hitting on 3+ the bolt pistol prob wont even get the double since one guy is in cover

      @@KimerexProjekt think we should get deep when we wanna teach ppl, like i agree with taking bolter over a plasma pistol into the guard, but the example u have given is eh, i mean it does its job of showing things to the new player and getting the point across, but as someone with a bit more experience i can see some flaws with it not working in practice, but ig its just a nitpick, also found another way: with tzeentch u can pop the ploy that gives u +1 apl u can do mission, charge, melee, shoot, and when the melta strikes not only will u have decent chance of surviving (cover and 4+ inv save) and also it will leave melta, one of their strongest weapons out in the open.

    Hi there, I just subscribed nice video I am learning kill team and wondering how mortal wounds work as normal damage does more the mortal wounds. Can I choose if this does does mortal wounds or just normal damage?

    • @KimerexProjekt
      @KimerexProjekt  25 дней назад +1

      Dice are retained and used as what they are. Crits are crits. Normal is normal. I'm trying to think of an example of where normal damage hits harder than crit damage + mortals. Sometimes they hit for the same value. But in the instance of a melta gun, the 6/3 damage is treated more like 6/7 after mortals are tacked on. It makes it so that teams that are good counters to the MW rule might make you think of using different weapons if capable.
      If you have a specific thing in mind, let me know. If you have discord we have a full on rules channel to go over this stuff in.

      So the break down is
      Melta gun hits a crit I retain that as a crit and defender takes 4 mortal wounds now the defender can roll to save the remaining 3 damage if he rolls a 6 if he gets a six he takes 4MW and the remaining 3 is saved
      If he don't roll a six the 3 and the MW4 is added together to make 7 damage total

      @KimerexProjekt  24 дня назад +2

      @@carlooshosey9865 ohhhhhh i think i see. The mortals would trigger and then the regular damage would be applied on a failed save. You can't declare it to be a normal hit to get the mortals and a bigger damage line. If the enemy fails the crit save the 3 damage goes through as 3, but the MW4 that is already applied makes the crit still better than trying to retain it as a normal.
      It won't be 4 mortals followed by 7 damage. Still 4 mortals followed by 3 dmg.

    Do people really lean into a Chosen instead of a Champion ? It's hard to believe, tbh. The poor Chosen has nothing coming even close to 2+ to hit plasma and the extra action on a kill.
    Maybe, just maybe, if only the Chosen had "Favoured of the Dark Gods" the choice would be difficult.

      You mean the outdated design with a brick-thick rulebook full of clunky rules that after all the effort of learning all those ambiguities and corner cases, buying and painting a huge army still gives you a shallow game where hardly any decisions are not obvious, most time is spent on boring, non-interactive upkeep (like up to 5 steps of dice rolling to see how much dice to roll for attack resolution) and the result is mostly decided by RNG, faction imbalance and weaponizing rules mistakes and abuses?
      I loved 6th edition WFB in my time, even won aGT and travelled internationally to play it, but it's been a quarter of a century of a boom in TT game design since then. So, no, let nostalgia be nostalgia and the game to play is a sleek (for GW ;)) modern design full of player agency and difficult decisions with lightning fast resolution.
