Nobody does this against cheaters and I don't understand why - Warhammer 40K tips 

Well said , a lot of people mix emotion to their games, make it harder to enjoy the game

Call. A. Judge. Let them sort out the rules dispute if you can’t resolve it in like 30 seconds. No use wasting time, making accusations, etc. Once the judge has been called over a few times for suspicious BS, they tend to stick around and keep an eye on the game to look for stuff like that. Explain to your opponent that rather than start an argument, it’s easier to get the judge over and make a ruling. I’ve literally NEVER had an honest opponent get upset about it. I’m there to enjoy a game of 40K. Arguing with someone over some ambiguity in a rule is a good way to ensure that no one is having fun.

I had an experience where my opponent didn't understand how his Aeldari fate dice worked. I'm new, so it was hard to stand up for myself, but I'm glad I did. Looks like I'm on the right track! Keep up the great work!

Great timing with Adepticon right around the corner. First time at a big big event like that. Great vid.

I love how you took a bit of yourself, your feedback and how that situation developed, absolute ace!

At the end of all things don't be afraid to scoop your models and walk away with a "loss". Losing to an invalid game state isn't losing and the only way some people will learn is if no one plays with them.

i will turn things around a bit. For myself, i am "new" to Warhammer. i have painted some small things in the past, nothing major. but now i am building a army for real and i am working towards the point that i can play games against other people. I am sure that i will forget things about the rules in my first games. it could be general rules or specific rules about my own army that would give my opponent an advantage when i forget them. I would like it so much when players or judges would point out the things that i am doing wrong or even forget. Im here to enjoy my time and learn the game. So help me, point me out and make me a better player. This is not only important for me, but also for the community. I can use the things i learned and apply them in other matches and use them against cheaters. We have to do it together. So its not only pointing out cheaters, but also helping fellow players to become better at the game.

Because 40K became highly competative, cheating became a big part of the game. Look like things like the "rules as written/rules as intended" topic. And on tournements everyone is complaining about minor things, calling the juges and the judges gets exhausted by this and dont react anymore, i have seen this on baltic cup.

"I'm just a normal man" thats exactly what a robot pretending to be a man would say

Had one more thought (you're getting me in a soap box). It's also important to have the same discussions internally with yourself. I am a very honest person, but sometimes, when I play, I will notice how easy it would be to sneak an extra bit of movement. I try to catch myself. I mentally call myself out. I then remember that if I win or lose, I want it to be 90% my skill at 40k and not slight of hand. (The other 10% is luck of the dice)

All Tournaments should use Dice trays for rolling so people don't have chance to roll behind terrain

people also afriad to call judge

Really appreciate this video and I’m liking your content (just found it) actually helping me with an issue at work where someone is essentially cheating on their workload!

Cool to see a face reveal. Pleasant surprise 🙂 And yes, a video about defeating space marines would be much appreciated. My main opponent is a friend I'm living with who playes marines and he tends to beat my sisters most of the time

Good vid thanks man. Solid advice.

As an organiser and head judge for some big events here in Aus we have always tried to cultivate a culture of asking the judge is fine and not a slight on the opponent. It baffles me when I travel to play that this isn’t the norm. There should be nothing wrong in asking your opponent for rules and then if your understanding differs the asking the judge to rule it if it’s done respectfully and politely.

One more thought i got from my friend. If you can't come to a resolution you feel fair, with out without a judge, just remember that you are the one who chooses who you play with. It might mean missing a game or a tournament, but unless you are a professional player, this should be fun.

You're right on all of it! We run some smaller events in Buffalo as Rogue Gamers & we try hard to active judge. But I hate when we have to say: "Why didn't you come get one of us!?" after the game is over. We want to help! Just ask. Please.

Man-robot confirmed. Great advice, thanks for “confronting” the issues.

Can barely keep track of my own rules still... catching someone else is going to be rough. The obvious things are easy enough to change like how to roll and speaking via intent helps a lot for the other garbage behavior.

The start of the video is why i have a zero tolerance policy for toxicity in league of legends. The only way to make it go away is have no tolerance for it.

Ive got a friend that always changes his mind about whete to move or direct fire when I announce Im going to use something like dark obscuration or heroic intervention. I let him do it because my victory is sweeter.

I definitely thought you were a robot. Just subscribed now that I know you aren't a robot.

In my case, the player I was playing with in a casual championship did the following. When it was time for me to shoot at a unit or to charge him, he would say, "Okay, I wouldn't have put it here; it would have been a little further away so you wouldn't see me." He did it at least 4 times.

Can you explain angle shooting, it never seems to make sense to me

Looking good luke

I find for some including my self i am unaware of cheats as i don't know the rules, costs, for every unit in every codex of by heart.

I’ve called a judge several times and they’re just clueless… scared to make a decision that changes the status quo of the game.

The only reason I don't use a dice tray, is because I'm a lazy idiot who should buy one. They are super handy.

nice AI generated face you've got there! The advice to keep calm is key. How to do that is the trick. finding a way to see them as funny in their pathetic behaviour will make you feel better.

Hmm, a normal man? Looks very Necrony to me 😉 - Jimotekh the Warmlord (me)

Here , where we are less nice, if you cheated the orgs will name the cheater . Very fast everyone knows you, including outside of the game you are playing. At it is at all levels, store games, events, big tournaments. Cheated in w40k? Ain't switching without warmahordes people knowing you . This has two effects , those that are psychos and would cheat no matter what, have to be REALLY good at it or it is out in the public. People that may get a stupid idea to cheat in a store game get it explained to them, if this us the fate they want. Main two problems l see with cheating in the west is that A judges don't stop games&kick people out with reactions often being post tournament, and only if the person cheats on top tables. Can't remember a single cheater get kicked out , since the early 90s, who was bottom tables or lower. B is that it is not just the judges, people don't call out cheaters. You give people this "benefit of doubt" and they hope from store to store, from local to local even slowly cheating their way through games. And then when they hit big 200 peeps events , everyone acts suprised . Even those that know the player had a "reputation". But it ain't no reputation when a lot if judges/opponents don't know about it. You litteraly let psychos ruin communities , because you are too nice and don't want to be mean. While the psychos, being psychos have zero qualms to do their thing.

incursion tactics how do I know you aren't just an ai deepfaked video ?? still could be a robot !

Can we see your rage face that's caused so much upset please?

when is the only fans coming?
