These videos usually don't do very well on the channel, but I really wanted to talk about some of these changes, so if you took the time to watch the video, please share your opinion on these changes in the comments! I am really curious what your thoughts are! As always, thanks for watching, especially on the more rules heavy videos. I really appreciate it!

My favourite video from you in a while.

Great video. Changes are all pretty good imo

15:45 that's not what the FAQ says regarding leaders. You can only select calgar or celestine (or freely choose to allocate damage to the bodyguards in their unit) if they're not an attached unit, ie only calgar or victrix, not calgar, victrix, or the unit they're attached to. It still explicitly says in the leader rules that you can't allocate damage to a leader while its attached unit is alive. Your options are still limited and lots of people seem to be reading this wrong. Great news for calgar though because of his feel no pain, but still not as good as you've suggested

Well I was toying with the idea of making a swarm out of my fledgling nid army. NOT ANYMORE!!! Maybe try like only once per br and only on turn 2 up??

Good summary, thank you. Though I gotta say: I don't understand why the Eliminator / Impulsor party bus is such a controversial issue. I thought it was a clever combo, though I never used it myself (don't own any Eliminators). It's not really a "that guy" play, like insisting that the Primaris Crusarers have two pistols. It's just an interesting side effect, how is it different than using the Uriel Ventris/Centurions/Vanguard spearhead combo? It wasn't that powerful anyway. If GW thought it was completely unintentional, they would have banned it in the first possible dataslate, instead of nerfing it through increasing the cost of Eliminators cost. I swear to God, Space Marine players turn into real crabs in a bucket over stuff like this, pulling each other down, instead of lifting up one another. "Nooo, don't use this combo, GW will nerf us even more!" "Divergent chapters shouldn't have fun and use codex detachments, make them use one playstyle forever because they painted their minis red!" "Black Templars are too strong, I hope GW nerfs them to bring them down to the rest of us!" It's really disturbing.

The core rules are 60 pages. The update to the core rules is 33 pages. Enough said... 🤗
