"...the Ratlings, fresh back from taking the ring to Mordor." Amazing.
Take a guardsman with ultimate faith in the Emperor, an angry Kriegsman with a shovel, and the man the myth the legend that is Sly Marbo. Have Mr Creed hide them unexpected behind the nearest potted plant, and instill them all with the kind of motivation that you only get once commissar Ciaphas Cain looks at you funny and his aide Jurgen sticks his Melta Gun in your face.

My personal favorite Krieg mini (who I have lovingly named Hanz Shovelson) unfortunately lost his bayonet when charging a chaos titan. Due to the Emperors will (and some VERY lucky melee rolls) he was able to take the titan down and win the battle.

The single best ending to an auspex video yet
Thank you so much for doing this one! It's always fun to go over the meme list that should really be an appendix of the actual Uplifting Primer, by now. I never expected Guard to be made as competitive as they are now, what with every other faction needing to be able to threaten them, and justify the existence of the Space Marines, and I have no idea if 10e will "reset" them to a more middling, benchmark level, but for now they get to live up to a lot of these memes, and I love it!

@@primalreversion7034 I totally agree with that, but sometimes feel that they do, anyway, in much the same way that they do for sales/profits, or at least I feel that was, in part, how Guard worked for many years prior to their current success. I certainly could be wrong; I don't play competitively, and much of my takes on things is merely influenced by the words of such content creators, but it's my take on it, anyway.

@@primalreversion7034 Oh sure. I've been a Guard fan since 4e, so I feel I know how good Guard can be. On the other hand, their 9e showing does seem to be a bit more impressive than they often had been, in the past, and some of the silly memes that xan make them famous are legit things they can do, right now. 😊 For me, the issue with Guard has always been GW; they aren't Space Marines, and so they don't get the attention. They do better than certain Xenos factions, certainly, but they often feel more like a benchmark force; what other armies have to be better then because, in the lore, they threaten the Imperium, and the Guard is what that means they fight. Their ability to best the infinite, faceless masses of Mankind is what justifies the Astartes, which is the big seller of GW. In other times, Guard were a legit horde army, like Orks and Nids are/were, which meant a big investment for bunch of disposable dudes, or some tanks that played like monsters, with just enough guys you didn't really use, just to bubble wrap up Saud tanks, and keep them in the game. I'm not saying they sucked, or that they can't still field this way now, only that they are definitely, in my opinion, in the best spot they've been for editions, and years. And it might not last; when various factions got their 9e codex, they ruled the meta for a while, before getting nerfed into shape. 10e could do that to them; I don't know, but I'll be happy that, at least for now, they seem to be in a great place, even if it means you have a few auto-include options, which means other stuff almost never gets picked, until they dumb it down, and let Astartes become THE faction, again.

I require one of these style of videos a week!
Loved this! Ngl, would be jokes if Auspex made a series out of this!
i know its unlikely but seeing this done for all the major factions would be hilarious, you obviously have a very good sense of humor
I think of commisars this way. Either you stand and fight, and MAYBE survive the charge of incoming Chaos Marines... OR You try to run, and guarantee that your commissar shoots you for cowardice. The difference? One of these options offers a chance of survival.
Good ending, to a good video! The happy cadian - worried cadian meme really is gold!
What Bayonets?!! The new guard box basiclly doesn't have any, and the sets that do have them only has one...ONE MODEL that has a bayonet at the end of a his lasgun, *cough* *cough* Cadian Upgrade Spure *cough* *cough*

Catachan are the best and I will hear no argument to that. Think games workshop needs to do more with their traitor guard though, ngl they could make mental dollar by releasing a box of both but givin enough supplies to build all as loyal or traitor (that and I need more supplies in my bits box)
This was perfect in every way.
I actually laughed out loud multiple times for this video lol. Good vid, may the Emperor protect!
I was laughing SO HARD as I saw this video all the way from beginning to the end! What an absolute riot that was! xD Many thanks for making my day, good sir. Truly.... :)
i'd love to see one of these for all factions.
Wait five years for a new codex, buy it at full price, learn a month later that this brand new pricey codex have just 2 month of life before it's useless. Yep, that's the GW we all know and love
More of these pls
Awesome!
that was awesome
Auspex April fools always a banger
there's no mention of sentinels because they'd all walked off
Billy is a mood
You should actually do this for every faction
Brilliant made me smile
The thing is that the Imperial Guard is hands down the main army the Imperium of Man has by far on ground wars. And they are normally forgotten
😂 thanks Auspex!
The irony of Sly Marbo's mini is that it looks like Arnold's John Matrix or Dutch rather than Stalone's John Rambo.
question: i have some primaris eradicators, and th option for one sergeant. do i need him to play? or can i just build 3 normal eradicators? also in the bladeguard set was 1 sergeant. same question can i play them without building sergeant? feell like in every se t is one sergeant
Didn't see the finale joker coming. Neither did you XD
If number 1 isn't "wait a full edition to get updated rules just to get outdated months later" then idk what it could be
hope to see more faciton memes in the future
I dunno infantry heavy armies are looking pretty good with born soldiers, it lets you do some pretty silly stuff with lasguns
Lol auspex got blammed 😂
