Agreed! Always loved how custodes look but this paint scheme has made me really want to start a custodes army. Would be a massive change from my nids though
@@uglyduckling81 Check out Lexicanum, there are in fact a number of Shield Hosts within the Custodes that have different colour schemes, as every factions has a number of sub-factions.
While seeing non-Gold Custodes is a bit alien, they are elegantly and subtly painted with enough red and gold to work. Really beautiful, even if a 19 model list is such a risk to a turn of bad saves.
Both armies look wonderful. Den of Imagination does amazing work. Props to Nic for selecting the Solar Watch colour scheme for his Custodes Very classy, not gaudy at all like "regular" Custodes. I know, I know - HERESY! Amazing how far 1750 points of Orks can go. I was surprised at how few Custodes there were. Quality over quantity - that's the Emperor's way!
"Loot the initiative." is a wonderful way to put it Winters. Keep at it with the orks mate... definitely one of the most fun armies in the game for those with a merry heart! :)
Just want to say that I really appreciate the post-game breakdown of what went which way, how things could have gone differently, and so on. I think we all do it, so it's nice to see happening on screen.
At aroud 41:00, in the melee, the power claw attacks couldn't be allocated to the shield custodes, because there was a wounded model there already. Only one model can be wounded at a time in a unit.
There wasn't, Guard have 3 wounds, and one was killed, no other wounds were allocated to the other spear Guard, therefore, he could use the shield for the claw.
That was the most impressive Custodes showing I've seen so far. Very decisive. Nice battle that was was a real shoot out. I will be subscribing to Deployment Zone after I retire October 1st.
Congrats on the up coming retirement :) may you have many many many MANY painting days ahead of you :) And the sub to DZTV will have you NOT painting for many many days as the content is mind blowingly brilliant :) respect and again, happy retirement! (I'm not that far behind)
Really fun mellow battle report. Checking out SN because of what you said and enjoying your content so far, hope your able to come out of the quar doing well!
i've used Deathskulls from the moment the new codex came out and they're so much more versatile than the other clans. The free re rolls are amazing for the random ork weaponry or when you need that extra hit or wound in combat. The invulnerable is amazing and so is the ability that their infantry get objective secured. I run a small detachment of bad moons which feature lootas :)
At 1:32:40, Winters could have fallen back with Boss Nob, which is troops, thereby contesting Obj 1 against the 1 Custodes within 3" and then moved the Wierdboy. 1 ObjSec vs 1 ObjSec + 1 non-ObjSec means the Orks would've held it at the end of the turn
What I've learned by playing them and playing against them is their relative fragility. You make your invul saves in the first two turns, you table the enemy. You loose a couple of units early, you've already lost.
Another great bat rep. I am starting my second Waaagh! in over 10 years. I'm running evil sunz because red ones go faster! Love that you are using the killa wartrike and dragsta. I'm using them as well and love the models. I'm about to purchase 6 meganobz myself because I just want to see the look in my opponents face when I jump them right in front of something big that needs a proper smashing and bashing. I'm also about to email you to purchase 40 of those cool dice. I love them!
It just makes my day to wake up and see a new Winters Battle Report. I don’t know when it comes out in the UK, it pops at about 4am here in the USA. Krump ‘em!
Seeing the White and red Custode jet bikes made me think you could run Primaris White Scars force with a squadron of Custodes jet bikes use the Custodes rules for them but narratively call them Primaris Golden Keshig
Love these post-battle discussions. Definately gives an Ork player like me much to think about. Best move of the game was definately charging the Ice cream van!
Great to have Nick back on the channel - that Custodes army is beautiful! Good luck at NR8 - hope you don't get paired against some swine who brings a Knight list...
hitting on 2s, rerolling 1s. we hear this over and over again throughout this video. it's such incredible accuracy, 35/36 shots will hit. approx 97% accuracy. even worse than this, we also hear the same stats for wounding, and it's single model doing many many rolls per turn. Those Custardies are tough!
I am not so sure about the turn 2 when the lootas shot the Caladius. It was in cover and it probably was obscured so 3's would have been enough! Also the S7 shots on the Telemon do have -2 AP and 1 damage.
I saw the other battle with Custodes vs mortarian/chaos army list (mostly melee) and Custodes didnt do too well but scratched by to win the day. I went into this video thinking it would be a good melee mash up but the Custodes shots were bang on absolutely crushing. Id like to see a rematch with the 2melee army list same factions. When the Custodes Dread turned on the 1 ork unit and wiped them, then the tanks, then the jet bike captain and the 2 faild moral checks it was game over, and naritively rightly so
I'm no expert of the game but at the end of round 1 did the custodes not still hold objective 2 as they have the rule sworn guardians which in a straight custodes list allows units to hold objectives despite there being more opponent models.
Where does it say the mek guns don’t get klan kulture abilities? I don’t see anything in the codex that exempts them. I see that it explicitly says Gretchin and kills kans are exempt but no mention about the killa kan
First of all, this is the visual most impressing custodis force I've ever seen! Got some questions about the custodes targeting the building side of the hobby thought. What sword did he use instead if the stock broad sword on the guards? 2nd what are those helmets from the shield captain's from? Greetings!
I legit just burst out laughing when you cut to the custodes, the 100+ vs a group of lads, a stag do's worth. Comedic timing, very nerdy comedic timing.
Quick question that I haven't sen anywhere else, are you guys not using the rule of 3? Just with you saying that all of the Mek Gunz with tractor cannons are separate units it wouldn't be legal for match play. At least that is my understanding of the rules. Once you break 2000 points you are allow 4 detachments and 4 of a kind in an army by the FAQ if I am remembering correctly. Its easily solved by sticking 2 of them in a unit, but with you planning on taking a list like this to a tourney I wanted to ask the question.
1750 orks... 200+ models.
1750 Custodies? 16 of the scariest killing machines that you can possibly imagine.
Custodes player: "So, what did it cost?"
Ork player: *pressing some buttons on hemodialysis machine he's hooked to* "Shut the fuck up."
Absolutely loved the : "How many models have I killed in your army? Akward pause and looks behind to check that it is really 2. "Two"
I had a crazy idea: winters SEO's Orks vs. SayHiPaul's Orks. A good scrap waiting to happen.
Oh, that would be awesome. Or a 3 way scrap with the Claw & SayHiPaul
@@craftworldaltansar5858 That... would be even more dakka.
Winters you have to make this happen dude it would be a battle of the ages
Custodes with no forge world stuff: A fluffy kitten.
Custodes with forge world stuff: Man eating tiger.
Well they are custodes so they should be tigers...or lions as they are themed after
DarthPlaugas I thought it was eagles
DarthPlaugas *laughs in jetbike spam*
@@professorbingchingler9503 the calladius is better than bike spam. Or you could do both
Aha! You forget about how hard little Kitten can hit! (TTS refrences! Watch it if you haven't!)
Forget the battle report, for a second. Can we talk about the balls on the Custodes player painting red and gold, with WHITE. They look great.
They are the Custodes of the Solar watch! Lovely and fluffy!
Agreed! Always loved how custodes look but this paint scheme has made me really want to start a custodes army. Would be a massive change from my nids though
Alex Alex I would butcher that paint job so bad.
First custodes army I've liked. All gold is hideous.
@@uglyduckling81 Check out Lexicanum, there are in fact a number of Shield Hosts within the Custodes that have different colour schemes, as every factions has a number of sub-factions.
Thanks for the Shout out Mr Winters! Awesome Battle Report with two great hobbyists I have shared on our social media. See you soon x
(rolls 5's and 6's like a boss) GORK IS WITH ME,
(rolls no damage) but mork screwed me over
While seeing non-Gold Custodes is a bit alien, they are elegantly and subtly painted with enough red and gold to work. Really beautiful, even if a 19 model list is such a risk to a turn of bad saves.
Winters SEO: Plays lucky blue gits
Paints absolutely nothing blue
Thank you for bringing out a proper Custodes army and damn they are beautiful.
Woah
I was surprised what 1750 pts of custodes look like in comparison of 1750 pts of orks.
Honestly, this is how I imagined Spehs Mahreens should play like from the fluff.
That terrain is next level. Absolutely beautiful.
Both armies look wonderful. Den of Imagination does amazing work. Props to Nic for selecting the Solar Watch colour scheme for his Custodes Very classy, not gaudy at all like "regular" Custodes. I know, I know - HERESY!
Amazing how far 1750 points of Orks can go. I was surprised at how few Custodes there were. Quality over quantity - that's the Emperor's way!

Victor of the bloodgames doesn't allow you to reroll damage. its only hit, wound and save....
And the 6 shot profile of the telemon is -2 not -1. Wouldn't have affected that battle though but it is good to know! Nice batrep as always
Awesome bat rep! Those Custodes are beautiful!

@@innsmouthharbour Thanks.
@@politicalsheepdog only 37 years for me :P
Damn those Custodes are powerful. An Elite army that can hang in this edition...
Great Battle Report overall. Nice pairing of Horde versus Elite.
More Custodes please!! Amazing batrep! Always great content from Winters
When his opponent lit up with 'ice cream time', I about lost it.
Its nice to see that custodes can actually look pretty. Great colour scheme and excellently painted.
I thought there was gonna be no way the Costodies could win with so few models. Unbelievable. The Emperor protects
He attac
Really fun mellow battle report. Checking out SN because of what you said and enjoying your content so far, hope your able to come out of the quar doing well!
Phenomenal game guys. Thanks Winters & Nick!
Nothing like painting up some CSM and listening to a BatRep!!!!

My Solar Watch Custodes applaud your Solar Watch Custodes for a job well done.
That was a very fun report!
What the ACTUAL fuck?! Your videos feature such beautifully painted armies every time.
Thank you for the inspiration.
Such a beautiful Custodes army!! I know its an old Battle report, but I just had to watch it for the beauty of the armies :)
That is a stunning custodes force. Bold move with the paintjob!
Really great report winters! Loved the excess terrain, really made it challenging and close battle!
The Custodes are absolutely stunning!
This makes me really want a Custodes army lol
Me: Look at the custodes, look at my custodes now back to what my custodes could of looked like.
Such a nice scheme
At 1:32:40, Winters could have fallen back with Boss Nob, which is troops, thereby contesting Obj 1 against the 1 Custodes within 3" and then moved the Wierdboy. 1 ObjSec vs 1 ObjSec + 1 non-ObjSec means the Orks would've held it at the end of the turn

What i learnt from this Battle Report...
Hope i never face custodes.
They are not As tough As they seem.
Seriously.
You just need enough power klaws.
What I've learned by playing them and playing against them is their relative fragility. You make your invul saves in the first two turns, you table the enemy. You loose a couple of units early, you've already lost.
They're a bit weaker now, with the new "full" ForgeWorld rules for them. Still strong, but not as strong.
The terrain looks great and the miniatures look excellent.
Please put the links you mention in the video description.

48: ooooverkiiiill!
59:50 They ALL have 6 to negate mortal wounds.
That could be the best painted army I've seen this year
Old mate has painted his Custodes quite beautifully. Very nice
Lovely paint scheme on those Custards. Glorious.
Sunday Saved! Thank you Sir Winters!
Though I often enjoy watching you win, it felt nice watching the Custodies bording this table.
Love these post-battle discussions. Definately gives an Ork player like me much to think about. Best move of the game was definately charging the Ice cream van!
Lovely looking armies - big shout out to Arklight Studios - those Solar Watch are amazing!
Lovely paint job on the orks. The trike looks mint
Great to have Nick back on the channel - that Custodes army is beautiful!
Good luck at NR8 - hope you don't get paired against some swine who brings a Knight list...
those tanks are gorgeous. really well painted.
What a lovely comment. "What about the gretchin?"
Oy who dis shiny gitz gettem boyz!
That is a stunning Custodes army.
The Custodes are beautiful painted are any vid showing how it s done?
hitting on 2s, rerolling 1s. we hear this over and over again throughout this video. it's such incredible accuracy, 35/36 shots will hit. approx 97% accuracy. even worse than this, we also hear the same stats for wounding, and it's single model doing many many rolls per turn.

Beautiful paint job on the custodies
Ah, there is the other Cricket fan in the Warhammer community. I am not alone.
Nothing like washing up the dishes whilst watching a Winters BatRep
Hey! I did the same!
@@FerreusVir Yeeeees you legend. The problem is that the dishes are done too quickly, even if I drag it out for 20 minutes. Haha
I've done the same 🤣
Same time I watch them.. Though amount of times my phone went in the sink.. Glad it's insured.
@@beanspud88 Balance dude, life is about balance 😉
That is one gorgeous custodes army
I am not so sure about the turn 2 when the lootas shot the Caladius. It was in cover and it probably was obscured so 3's would have been enough!
Also the S7 shots on the Telemon do have -2 AP and 1 damage.
24:14 sick sock sheets.
Love your work 😘
Winters how did you know I just ordered Pizza??? sat down at my computer to eat and saw this in my feed XD
"At least he died doing what he loved..." 🤣
I saw the other battle with Custodes vs mortarian/chaos army list (mostly melee) and Custodes didnt do too well but scratched by to win the day.

The Tellemon does not have POTMS as far as I can see. So when moving he shouls have the -1.
I'm no expert of the game but at the end of round 1 did the custodes not still hold objective 2 as they have the rule sworn guardians which in a straight custodes list allows units to hold objectives despite there being more opponent models.
Gah, I really feel like getting the Ultramar Militaries (IG from Ultramar) painted now so that I can play with them.
You really need a Pain boy, Gretchin get the save while Grot sheilding
1:16:58 I thought all DeathSkulls units have the objective secured ability unless they are gretchin...
That is a very pretty custodes army. I'm kinda thinking, ummmm next army?
Gruggachugga love that name Winters, the Custodes look amazing btw and as usual Winters orks look amazing too.
Gorgeous armies! What ‘level’ of painting are your orks from Den of Imagination?
Custodes shooting with rerolls is absolutely brutal. It's bad enough they hit with 2s with that reroll it's like they never miss sometimes.
It's roughly a 97.2% hit chance. When your entire army is only a few models, every one of those shots needs to go through.
Can't get over how good the Custodes look
Thank you great farseer 🙏
Gretchins shield last entire turn so you can activate it and suck all the shots
I need opinions. I'm thinking of painting a custodes army with bronze armor and blue galea
Apocalypse game for Murphy when?
Where does it say the mek guns don’t get klan kulture abilities? I don’t see anything in the codex that exempts them. I see that it explicitly says Gretchin and kills kans are exempt but no mention about the killa kan

WHAT A DAMN DAY TO BE ALIVE
Beautiful custard army, brutal match, silly orcses.
That is the most beautiful custodies army, im so jealous.
Traktor Canon automatically blows things up with the fly keyword . Not a big deal in the ende, but nice to know.
Love the battle report. When will we see Murphy’s War band or perhaps the 13th take on the Night Lords?
what an amazing looking custodes army
That was a firing squad simulation. Still, it might have swung to Winters. GG
Those Custodes look sexier than most Slaanesh Daemon armies I've seen and I've seen a few.
Missed out with that auto explode on flyers with that tank
That was really fun, thanks gang :)
Beautiful armies winters!
Beautifully painted custodes army
