One big monster/mech as an opponent with various smaller units floating around the map (maybe randomize these or something?) And have various tasks the rest of the army incapable of actually fighting the big bad can accomplish ie: a squad of Incursors blowing up a bridge/support beam to limit the Chaos Knight from closing in on your artillery, a squad of Bladeguard escorting a tech priest to an offline AA gun to deliver a massive blow to the knight but there's a Chaos Terminator Squad guarding it. Meanwhile the Chaos Knight is getting crazy random buffs based off which of the four gods is blessing it this turn. Could be some fun times.

@roguevector1268

That would be a fun thing to add as an option; if you roll doubles on your roll, add a unit from another Imperium faction table (depending on availability). So while you've been mowing down hordes of IG... then a Questoris Knight shows up because someone rolled double 6s.

@EstradusTheDragon

If we're continuing the idea of using MTG formats in Warhammer; I believe this is what they call Archenemy.

Secondary Objective: Team Mascot - Add a nurgling or other chaff-equivalent model to the center of the battlefield. The horde will prioritize attacking it if possible this turn. Succeed with this objective if it survives the next attackers turn. Success: Everyone gains 2RP, A random player gets a max-size squad of the mascot. Failure: All players must remove 4 infantry/mounted models or 1 vehicle.

Good luck!

With 8000 points of Marines, lots of friends at the FLGS and access to some large tables I'm gonna try this as 'Horde Mode: Apocalypse' we'll see what survives!!! Great job Brad, Eric and all the Patreons who contributed. This may be the most significant improvement to 40k since the release of tenth edition

I have a group of friends who have been passively interested in the lore of 40k but, with many other could-be-seen-as-competitive games, have a mean streak of “veteran player wants to teach people how to play -> veteran stomps new players to the point of unfun -> no one wants to play that game at all, with or without veteran”, the classic “Im just logging into the minecraft server and youve already gone to the End” dilemma. I think this is going to be a great way to teach people how to play without being salty and learn the game mechanics, and it genuinely sounds like a fun gamemode and am excited to try it. I’m probably going to draft up a list for all the armies my friends enjoy playing as and then try to take them into TTS and muck about.

This is amazing - Poorhammer Horde Mode needs to spread like Nurgle's love.

I'm a professional game designer and I was considering doing something like this during my Winter holidays! Since you already have such a great start I'll give it a spin with my local group and provide you with some feedback ❤

I just want The Last Stand to come back

I'm not yet far enough along in my warhammer collecting (or painting for that matter) to do any playtesting for this, but I absolutely love this idea. This is such a cool way of playing through big lore events like the fall of Cadia or the burning of Prospero. I would be really interested to see how an asymmetric deployment layout would play i.e. deploy in the center with horde spawns on the corners. It would really amplify the "last stand" vibe, but I'm worried it would be too difficult to fortify.

@cousinzeke4888

You know you don't have to actually have the models to play, especially something like this. When my buddy and I first started we used paper circles with names written on them.

This is really cool - I think my kids would actually love it because they don't quite have the strategic brain to play their own factions yet, but WANT to play and have someone/something to battle

I love the idea of having a co-op mode to introduce new players to the game! Also, sometimes it’s fun just to chill and everyone play together 😊

I listened to the episode on Spotify earlier today but this was such a great idea you’re both killing it

I have shared this format with my commander playgroup who loves co-op board games but have bounced off 40k and they are really into it. I feel this might be a good onboarding format for Warhammer

You gotta get Bricky to play this with his Guard. Would be wild.

As someone who has always wanted to get to play Warhammer but my friends are not as interested I think this game mode sounds AWESOME I am even MORE excited to finish my army so I can try this!

I love this kind of thing, I always prefer to team up with my friends than to fight them. Now I just need to buy another faction to fight. Great work on the objective decks and resource point systems, I can tell a lot of time and effort went in to those.

This sounds brilliant. Recently got 2 of my mates into 40k with the Tau and Necron combat patrols. Will absaloutly have a go at this with them.

This looks so fun! I’ve never played a game of Warhammer, but there was an X-Wing co-op campaign that was super fun I played years ago! Excited to try this some day!

wow this is awesome! Now all I need is friends....

This sounds like a great time and I'm already putting feelers out to my friend group to find people willing to give it a go. My only complaint is that this didn't come out a week or two sooner so I could've made a Halloween game night out of it.

Very fun, thanks for taking the time to put this together. Looking forward to giving it a go at my FLGS after the New Year.

This looks great! Thank you so much to you and your patron for providing this awesome game to the community!

two back to back absolute bangers, gotta love it, keep it up guys

I love this! I've been into 40k for 10+ years, I have a pile of shame that beggars belief (700+ space marines... I want a chapter...... eventually). This has me excited enough to finish my first 2000 points. I've always wanted a co-op mode! I'm going to get my friends together and try this!

This sounds like so much fun! Me and my friend are still learning how to play 40K and it sounds like a great way of getting the grips of how to play, while working together. Cant wait to try it!

Thanks for putting this mode together! My son and I are just getting into 40K and this seems like a great way to learn the basics together.

Im really excited to try this out with my play group. I just finished reading the rules and it looks like a lot of fun. Will defo leave notes where necessary after the first few games. Thank yall for the hard work.

Just discovered you guys last week. Been binging episodes nonstop. I really hope you feed your Brazilian well, he does exceptional editing work. I can't wait to get my more casual friends on-board. This game mode seems like the way I wanted to play tabletop miniatures (as my players would attest given the numerous "survive until X" D&D encounters I've subjected them to). Thank you guys for being absolutely amazing gems in our community!

Already listened on Spotify and may try my hand at adapting it for AoS. Excellent work.

This sounds awesome!! Can't wait to play this.

Thank you guys and everyone who helped make this. looks like great fun!

Love this, and have already shared it with my community. If I ever find an in person community again I'd love to pitch this to them as well!

Giving the gamemode a try this weekend with some friends, very excited to try it!

I very much appreciate this!!! I have been developing a simpler version of this for my kids who get furious with each the other if he wins, but y'all did a much better job than I would have. Love your channel BTW.

I’m so excited to play this with my group, saw the video and pitched the idea. We’re all gonna play it this weekend!

This seems absolutely AMAZING, sending this to my playgroup right now!

Exceptionally well done guys, rules look solid and can't wait to give it a shot. I've been trying for a while to make a mixed rulset between 40k's setting and Crossfire and know first-hand how incredibly frustrating this process can be. Cheers to your efforts, and can't wait for an official publication!

Tried this for the first time last night myself playing 1000 pts admech vs a genestealer cult hoard. I got screwed hard by the charts and ended up with 15 aberrants with characters leading each on turn two. I could not clear either of them out and just slowed them down with bodies. Was pretty fun

So I’ve never actually gotten to play a game of 40k yet (still building up my first army), but this sounds like one hell of a time with friends!

Just started Warhammer this year and this podcast has been a big help with understanding the game, but I may end up enjoying this coop mode more than the actual game.

as soon as i watched this for the first time (in the middle of video) i already assembled players to play this. looks amazing, can't wait to put my model collection to use :D watched second time now and checked some documents, especially summoning tables, as i will be the "horde player", and this project definitely has future. great job, guys

This format seems like a right hoot. Been sending this vid off to assorted mates. Well done you two!

This is such a good idea, I could really see getting the family involved with a mode like this

Can't wait to try this out, my buddy told me about this and it sounds so fun! My servo turret is gonna be fire for this mode as well 🤙

This looks amazing. Will definitely be showing my play group!

Thank you for such a cool format! I will play with my pals this weekend and try to give an honest feedback.

This looks super fun! I'm really excited to give it a try!

been trying to get a new friend into our playgroup gonna have to this this a go, sounds great.

My gosh I tried my best to come up with something like this with my brother! I'm excited to see something so fleshed out and it looks like a blast! It has my cogs turning. I wonder if it could be reworded/reflavored to a point where this game mode could be used in AoS? I'll have to give it a go and see where I can line stuff up!

I don't think i've ever been as excited to get some games in as I am right now, excellent work guys!

This immediately brought me back to the days of The Last Stand, I’ll be having a field day with this thank you!😭😭😭

This is perfect, I’m getting into 40k and this is a nice way to include my brother without competition against him

I love you guys, this is GENIUS!

This looks absolutely amazing, can't wait to give it a try!

we just started a 40k group in work and it's a very mixed bag of experience when it comes to play. I am totally suggesting this as I think it's actuality such a great idea for the reasons ye mentioned! Looking forward to this now.

This is amazing!! I have a handful of coworkers that are into 40k. And my partner just started 40k for the first time, with Tyranids. Im definitely going to share this, and email you guys with the results!!

I'm so excited to play this I was sold on the concept from the title alone but damn the rules look brilliant. I've phoned some old friends and we're gonna play a game with a guy who hasn't played since 6th.

This seems like such a great way to learn the game rules! As a new player I'm stoked to try this out with some other newbies so we can fight the good fight together!!

This seems amazing, and could be what gets me into playing 40k and not just reading lore and building models

I genuinely love this idea and shared it with my game group

Hell yeah :) This is ideal for my collection which is made up of a handful of squads of different factions. Thank you!

I posted your video and rules to some Discord communities, and the response has been positive. I look forward to giving this a try.

Found this and already love it! I’ve shared it with a few friends and might see how it works! Especially as a casual way to play of tts with distant friends!

This is such a cool idea! Thanks for making a discord, I’ll definitely check it out!

This sounds amazing, can't wait to try it with a friend!

This is a great framework for my LGS Crusade campaign going on right now. Setting is a Tyranid invasion and some of the Tyranid players have gotten to the point where they have 5k crusade rosters. This would be a good way to have multiple defenders play against those players.

This is outstanding, I have semi-recently moved to a swing/night shift thing that made Mon-Tues my weekends instead of Sat-Sun, this might allow for meaningful interaction with the hobby as a solo player usually and with others on those rare occasions it works out

I'm just learning 40k now, and I am very excited to try this

I've already got an idea to play this with a mate. We've been having a few games between my K-Sons and his Votann, but we could quite easily slap his Necrons into the mix and suddenly the nerds and jocks need to team up against a bunch of sleepy skelly boiz. We've also got another friend we're wanting to get involved more in the hobby so def worth experimenting with him

Oh dude thats awesome! Definitely going to try this out

Love this. I was actually gonna build a coop horde mode myself

This sounds absolutely ace. Itching to try this with my friends.

Just shared this with my friend who is getting into 40k and has a small collection. He is excited to try this out.

I'm really going to try this with my friends, this sounds super fun !

As someone who has been playing homebrew Horde Modes in 40k with friends since 3rd edition (just did a Horde Mode Helms Deep with my best friend a couple months ago), I will be all over this and hopefully I'll have enough time to play a few games and give some real feedback over the next little bit. I love the ideas of multiple formats! :D

This sounds incredible. Going from having to fight my friends Eldar every week to working with them would be a great change of pace. Finally the fate dice will work for me

You guys rock. I love this.

Just got into 40k and this sounds like a ton of fun. Will certainly try it out first chance i get.

I've been watching you guys and listening for about a week and a half now just kinda binging your content when possible. I enjoy your banter and the visuals of your videos believe I subscribed only a few days before commenting. However i just started painting models, not just Warhammer, when you explained the game in a few episodes. I was interested but have no friends that play nor an army and I haven't reached out in my community to connect with anyone, yet! After one previous episode I had the thought of a horde style or big boss battle style homebrew, if you can't tell now that I'm a D&D Forever DM, this video sealed that i wanted to create my own and play your mode. Thank you for all the information I've learned from you guys and the fun!

This is just what I've been looking for!

Played our first horde mode today against nids! Had a blast! Took a long time for us to get through 4 players while learning the rules but I think it was a success! 3 players succeeded in completing their missions. Thanks for the fun guys!

Thats a lot of community help! Amazing!

Finally an episode just for me!

I am 100% playing this this weekend with a friend of mine. Seems very fun.

I’m excited to try this! Seems fun!
