I'm an Imperial Guard player. The lack of time to use my codex while also buying the collector's edition isn't what gets to me as much. It's being told that it's completely obsolete for 10th. I figured it wouldn't have a long life, but for it to not even be valid for the new edition and being told by other players, "Dude, you just got a codex. Stop complaining about it. My faction hasn't had one in years." Is really what irks me most.

As a deathwatch player: this edition was fucking painful. We basically lost special issue ammo, with it being worse, and limited to tactical marine boltguns. All our unit abilities were turned into stratagems(fall back and shoot/charge) or removed (terminators giving fearless, aggressors giving move/advance and shoot without heavy/assault penalty) We lost our +1 to wound stratagems as well, on top of all that. In return, we got access to.... The stuff all other chapters already had. Lost most of our flavor, and the army of renown that was the one thing that gave us a little flavor and competitive viability was PATCHED OUT OF THE GAME AND NOT REPLACED, FOR NO DISCERNABLE REASON. It was hell.

Drukhari and Admech being completely broken for months really overshadowed this book.

When we get access to the full indexes we'll certainly be doing videos about them and our opinions on them. The previews should end sometime next week, so I assume indexes will be available in 2-3 weeks. I debated doing a First Impressions episode after these articles all wrap up, but I fear they're going to wrap up and indexes will drop during the week between recording that and posting the edited version, leading us to repeat ourselves immediately.

As a Death Guard player I have to grudgingly agree that all of your criticisms of the codex are spot-on. In all my list brewing I have not found a real use for any subfaction other than Mortarion's Anvil, for the aura of deny re-rolls WT and the strat that lets you heroically intervene with anything. Sadly it looks like the issue might continue or be even worsen in 10th, the new Blightlord Terminator datasheet just looks sad and uninspiring. Having nothing but +1 Toughness over a SM Terminator is insulting for the faction whose entire identity is being slow and unkillable.

@@wolfstormminatures1504 That was kind of my point. +1 Toughness compared to their loyalist counterparts is simply not enough to reinforce that faction identity. I wouldn't care how many points they cost. I'd happily pay 60pts/model for Blightlord Terminators with T6, 4W, 2+/4++ and FNP 5+. I just want my fat men in bulky armor to feel like the lumbering unkillable blobs that the fluff paints them as. It already bothered me enough that between 8th and 9th they lost their resistance to mortal wounds that was partly what drew me to the faction in the first place.
@Bluecho4
@Bluecho4 Год назад
What made the 10th preview more infuriating is that GW plainly knew that being durable was central to Death Guard's identity. They dedicated at least one paragraph to reiterating that fluff. But the material on offer in the preview flatly did not support it. It would be so easy to implement, too. Just slap "Feel No Pain X" on most of the datasheets, and bump up the price per model. They did it for Custodes, yet not Death Guard?

I disagree. I think removing named Regiments as distinct rules was the best thing to happen to the army. You SHOULD just be able to pick rules from a list. That's more healthy long-term for an army. It's why 10th ed seems to be doubling down on it, by making "subfaction" rules be built around playstyles rather than specific in-universe groups (certain specialist Space Marine chapters excepted). The loss of units is a blow, though. They could have continued having Conscripts by just taking the old push-fit Cadian sprue, and sold those in sets of 20 models.

Love your guys takes, great vid !! As a blood angels player I really enjoyed having to wait to turn 3. All the lore of battleline blood angels is them fighting the red thirst and having the willpower to keep up codex compliant firing patterns, but each marine (like the player) is fighting the urge to throw down your bolter and and charge headfirst into a bloodbath. My biggest problem with Blood Angels codex was them removing essential abilities (like redeploy jumpacks) and giving them to other factions. And the Other codex divergent chapters like Dark Angels and space wolves got a huge amount of special rules and cool terminators. Dark angels got more special units, more unique loadouts for units, 3 super doctrines, mega awesome characters, a handful of janky strats, and super powerful special rules. Blood angels got gold bois and angry bois and 2 good strats. Why is Mephiston trash in game, but is one of the most powerful psychics in the imperium who can 1v1 a bloodthirster. Why is Dante +1cp and free fight on death when he is the oldest most experienced space marine alive who is the commander of half the imperium

Just to maybe add something to the talk of AdMech complexity, I've had a theory for a loooong time re: complex game rules. Basically, complexity /by itself/ is a negative. No one wants to take more steps to get to the same result. But complexity almost always adds depth, meaning skill expression or choice or just fun stuff to delve into. Depth is good. Depth is basically always good, but it's hard to add without adding complexity. In essence, complexity becomes the price you pay for depth. But X amount of complexity does not always buy you Y amount of depth. If you're good, or just lucky, you can add a lot of depth for very little complexity (leading to an elegant rule). And if you're not as good, you can end up paying a lot of complexity for very little depth (leading to an inelegant one). On top of that, players have different tolerance for complexity and preference for depth. I generally prefer more complex games, so I probably have a higher complexity tolerance and/or more depth preference than a lot of people. But that doesn't mean my complexity tolerance can never be exceeded. And it doesn't mean that I'll enjoy a complex game that isn't that deep. I suspect the problems with AdMech complexity lie somewhere in there.

I appreciate this content, and enjoy engaging with it. Here's hoping tenth edition marks a move towards a more... brisk codex release schedule. (Note: this is actually possible due to the monetization of codices vs starting faction rules)

Yeah, fair enough. Your inevitable ragging (every episode) on the just and true Eldar does grate a bit. Yet you were right about our codex, you could even have mentioned the super vague Ynarri rules. No Corsairs! Because no reason, even though it is super lore friendly. Keep up the good work :)

Me, a BT collector/painter (I havent played in like 10 years so im not gonna say im a player lol) 'Yeah thats fair' But overall enjoyed the tier list idea!!!!! Its not like too different from some of your other videos/formats, just a like different delivery system a lil bit?? Just overall like helps us see it all in context against each other rather than just going faction by faction, and then towards the end having like the overall best and worst if that makes sense??? It works lol

I wondered, for a moment, what you'd say about my Iron Hands. Then I remembered. The episode was fun, but yeah probably not for every episode. I would like to hear a breakdown of every index when 10th comes out, either as a tierlist or a .. well, more thorough tierlist!

Good fun this episode. I was wondering what your opinion was on Thousand Sons because they have been kinda taking L's all around but I need to agree with you that they are 100% what you expect from space wizards. And I also agree with your take on Orks. Could be fun to see you tierlist all units in your favorite factions in 10th.

Changeups are good for content variety - tier lists are always popular, so this works. Good thing the channel is more than tier lists though, thankfully.

Feedback: This was great! I know you guys do warhammer, but you could try a mtg card/deck/archetype teir list, and I'd watch the hell outta that. Or you could do a tier list for the 10th edition faction focus once they come out. I'd also love to hear your thoughts in general on the faction focus's.

My Knight Despoiler has never caused a Dread Test one time in its entire life. It's also only ever been played, souped into my CSM army.

So I am not a competitive player, but I collect Tau and Eldar and from what I can tell people were mostly happy with those codexes, with only some balancing messing with internal balance. For Tau, I thought it was one of the only codexes that tried to sensibly give out core. Fire Warriors, Crisis, Stealth, and Broadsides(Though the have had to lose and regain it). I think it actually was a kind of book where you could think about doing weird lists for fun, like a Dalyth Stealth list. Indirect fire was oppressive, however it was for my first time in warhammer seeing the iconic unit, the Crisis Suit, be the center of the army. For Eldar, I follow a youtube channel "Craftworld Eldar" and he has seemingly been really excited for the 9th codex. From what I can tell, the only real losers were Storm Guardians(which are kinda weird in craftworld in general) and Saim Hann as a faction not being as fleshed out as the others. The subfactions in craftworld are very defined however and you can make very thematic lists for each of the, Even though Ynnari is still in limbo, I still continued to see it played by competitive players. I think in this video it just was more a case that both of you are pretty apathetic to Craftworlds, which is no problem but interesting in itself!

I think the admech one being like 20 minutes of pissing on the walls is entirely fitting for Admech.

I loved how casual this episode was. Also my poor necrons, I just didn't play them much because playing to score points and get blasted off the board every single time was just not fun.
