Melta gun is often the right choice. Short lived operative, but effective

Go team melta!

The rules seem interesting, but the minis are, to me, a fantastic example of everything that’s wrong with GW’s vision of Chsos.

I’m interested in your point because I don’t really like the models because I like chaos being really connected to the chaos gods. I can see the models appeal to most people, what is it that doesn’t appeal to you?

@@aleczandergordon1298 they are the epitome of pointless spiky bits to be kewl. I don’t like it in the 80s, and it’s only got worse. Death Guard kind of works for me as they look like decayed and bloated versions of their original form, which is on point for Nurgle and Space Egyptians are funky in their way but the core Chaos range isn’t to my taste.

Should they be bigger?

Your enthusiasm about the skinthief was infectious. Glad youre excited about them too, I've been obsessed with playing this team since the first teaser. Regarding Foreboding, I think it being limited to once per turning point is harsh but fair. My ideal solution would be to make it cost escalating CP amounts per turning point, so if you can manage to drum up six tokens, you can go for a massive play. I would also accept twice per turning point, i think thats a bit more reasonable while still keeping it very very powerful indeed. I remain unconvinced on the visionary's chainsword since my friend plays all the elf teams, and turning them into paste is a very attractive fantasy. But i do want to paint it. Maybe I'll flip a coin. Great video as always, my eyes are peeled for the mandrake breakdown

Great points, chain sword is the coolest option

I got my pre-order in. The Mandrakes will either go to a friend that's looking for a Deldar team or eBay because they don't interest me in the slightest. I'm building both gunners and heavy gunners because why would I not when I have the parts. I can see your point about the melta, but I feel it's a more situational choice rather and an always 1 or the other. Same goes for ML vs HB. I really, really love the TacPloy to make them super effective against loyalist marines. That's delightful.

1:01:30 Depends where you are. There's plenty of places I've played when I'd have been very happy to take a concession and go & grab food early or a comisaratons pint with a nice guy who was just unlucky enough to bring something my list hard countered.

My hot take. Worse than legionary the same as intercession. Would love to be wrong but still get out activated by 90% of teams and no where near as durable as Tzeentch/Nurgle legionary. It’s will be like playing a better version of Slaanesh/khorne legionary.

52:54 GK have the Psyk-Out Grenade which would be 3/5 damage and Lethal 5+ on this guy, and SoS have Psychic Abomination which means they can't be targeted with Dosconcerting Mimicary.

You have sold me on the meltagun! I am now converting one of my nightlords to have a meltagun.

Yeah 100% melta, I run it 75% of the time.

What about using the ventrilokar to dash someone into a cluster for a poison nade

Yeah good tactic!

My read is you will always take RL & Plasma on anything but ItD, and 90% of the time on ItD. Like you though I’m bad at the game.

Case in point, I forgot that the Melta exists, and I’d absolutely take it over the Plasma most of the time 🤦

I have the feeling that you really understand the game quite well, but perhaps don’t think well “on your feet”. Your analysis seems solid. But then, I’m even less of a shark than you, so maybe you’re just a good salesman? 😁

I have a great understanding of the game when sitting in front of my computer, which evaporates at the gaming table.
