    First list. He has Logan on foot. But no unit? Is Logan's buffs good enough to have him just for that? I would imagine he dies rather quickly without a unit or lone op?

    Got back into 40k recently. Last played in 2nd edition. Started a Space Wolves army and have zero regrets. Ragnar is a blender and I love a Bjorn, Murderfang and Wulfen Dread combo. Haven't played a game since the update but looking forward to finally trying COR

    Long msg, but worth reading. Mainly anekdotes. Assault Centurions with a second squad, either Judiciar/captain with black death and Assault Intercessors or Ragnar + BGV nearby. Send them at your enemies strong flank while the rest of your army storms the weak flank.

    Me and a handful of SW players decided to try out some unconventional tactics and use the Assault Centurions. AND THEY SLAP! With Advance & shoot/charge for 1CP. Consolidating 6". I have half a dusin anekdotes of them being a deciding factor already. Personally used then in 5 games and they kill on average 500 points, 2 vipers + 2 hunters + 10 dark Reapers. Or gravtank + trojan+his bodyguards. Quote from one of the guys I got to try them: "Ran em into grey knights. lasted all 5 turns. 2 died. ate 10 termies and kaldo draigo. AFTER he charge THEM. Holy fuck dread knights and librarians are wild. and munched a grandmaster in dreadknight after it failed to kill raider. 🙂 duck the meta they fun"

    When you say wolf leader do you mean Battler Leader or Lord? If you have the point i would put both in the big Wolf squad. Ragnar runs best with Bladeguard I find. I love Canis. Not sure about Krom if you were running him with Bloodclaws maybe swap for Lukas.

I guess I could proxy him out with Lucas. Thought he would be a good fit because of the plus ones he gives as the unit falls below starting a strength

    Great review, thanks. I have been doing some COR games now. I really love it! My experience - a couple of comments: - 9/10 of games I would chose Saga of the Bear. It makes the army so much more tanky. E.g. 6 thunderwolves will actually turn to 7 (roughly). Furthermore, it is hard to achieve that saga (unless you really want to risk ending with 1,2 or 3 wounds with Bjorn - I wont take that risk). The only game I chose not to start with that saga was against World Eaters and I chose Lethal Hits. - Go for armies where it is possible to win the sagas. E.g. I have been going with Grimnar (full rerolls and charges once pr. battle is a must) and Wulfterminators. With Oath, Go for the Throat on Angron they slaughered him. Potential to get two sagas there. Another example coule be Njal and 5 terminators with saga of the Bear. They could focus on taking the enemy objective with rapid ingress. - Murderfang seems good to bring, he is really squishy but if you can deliver him/screen him, he hits like a truck and just the potential for him to fight back frightens the enemy. So he can also be used as a fear factor. - I foresee Assault intercessors and blood Claws in future lists due to battleline-buff. Lastly; I have too played Wolf Cages in a couple of tournaments and... I find it boring now... COR can be played in many ways and I look forward to a lot of games and different lists.

    I don't know if it's a new thing or not, but if a librarian's hazardous psychic attack backfires it counts as psychic damage. Not sure if all libras have the fnp against psychic damage only if they lead a unit, but that can make it impossible to go down with hazardous damage below half hp

    Are you saying you cant take a 5 man squad or that Ragnar isnt allowed in the transport. Because you can take a 5 man squad. You can take a 4 man if you wanted to. The listing is 1 Sgt and 2-5 Bladeguard not 1 Sgt and 2 or 5 Bladeguard. It works the same as the old PL and the AOS rules which the way points work now is based off of.

  • @peachesthedestroyer483
    @peachesthedestroyer4839 ай бұрын

    Currently as it stands you pay the points for and take a minimum of a squad or the maximum. It's the way it's being played at every event and list build I've seen for 10th edition. So far no variable squad sizes like what you're describing. It's min or max the wording is noting that you have the Sgt of a squad plus 2 for a 3man squad or Sgt plus 5 for the full 6 so you take 3 or 6 no other variation at present until we get the marine dex and it changes.

    Really enjoyed the recap, and the content so far. Always curious how deployment changes depending on opponent or faction. I hear games can be decided by good/poor deployment. I still don't yet understand why i am deploying the way i chose. Which leaves me floundering before turn 1. You did a great breakdown of each turn, but how did you/do you determine deployment with your army list and set up for the game? Drop Pod with Rapid Ingress, deep strikers, how far to put up troops with infiltrators ability? keep up the content! Congrats on 2-1.

  • @almostfunctional40k
    @almostfunctional40k11 ай бұрын

    Yes deployment can be huge especially in certain matchups or terrain layouts. The Drop pod is in must specifically for this. If I an playing someone else with really good indirect or towering that I believe can kill my Desolation before they can shoot I put them in pod to protect them. If I feel they are safe to deploy and opponent does not have fast melee to threaten my lines I will put Ragnar and Bladeguard in there so opponent has to worry about where they come in and gives me access to Rapid Ingress for more reliable charges from reserves. And if they do have fast Melee I deploy Ragnars squad to defend my line and throw infiltrators or scouts in pod to have more option for dropping tonscore secondaroes where I need. But I find it is good to practice deploying against different lists at home if you can.
