Wohoo
We got to hit 3k.
Aiden, this really helped me. I’ve been conflicted as a new player. Do I buy a Knight or War Dogs? So I just went back to basics- and now have 3 PBC’S to add to my army.
Thanks for the shoutout Aiden! Always learn something new watching your videos! I finally got around to picking up a Daemon Prince and can't wait to try it out 🙂
You can’t polish a turd, but you can roll it around in glitter.
Hear me out, I knw its polemic to talk about the Surgeon and all, but I had a lot of success with an melee unit of 10 plus the Noxious Blightbringer. Just to say he is not a complete trash, brought back a couple of dudes and realy helped in melee. I had the opinion the NB was trash since it came out, but now in 10th can finaly see why use this thing… always experimenting, this is why i love playing DG.Nice vid Cheers
NURGLINGS 🥰
I may be incorrect but the soul grinder base is only needed for AoS, in 40K it doesn’t need the base.
Hi all, small addendum got a little confused on the winged demon Prince it doesn't have dev wounds it's precision I got confused with our Demon Prince who gets dev wounds on the charge. Precision is still incredibly powerful and a unique tool to snipe out characters without having to worry about keeping that cp for heroic challenge 🙂 apologies so many units my can't can't keep them all in haha
You kind of gave the Despoiler short shrift. When we take the -1 ap Contagion and then take this guy with two Battle cannons he's putting out 4D6 +12 str 10, -2 ap, damage 3 shots at 36 inches. That's going to mess up T9 vehicles, kill elite infantry in droves and even take down the biggest of monsters. Plus, you get two more Diabolus Heavy Stubbers. At 36 inches you will have 9 str 5, ap -1, damage 1 shots from that. The Despoiler is an awesome ally. Need to keep him alive. I would suggest Strategic Reserves. You need to make sure a bunch of the enemy are in contagion range.
Knight lancer?
Just starting the podcast but I don't write lists that don't include at least 2 units of 3 nurglings anymore.
Another great video. Would you really take stuff in the dog bin over a plague surgeon? 😮
So so good. Thank you for this wonderful content. I love DG.
My friend is playing Raven Guard. He’s a very good player – really sneaky. Can move 3 units with the Phobos Cap at the start of the game and will play the RG detachment…
Do you have any ideas how I can take him down?
Almost all his army is untargettable over 12” thanks to Phobos Librarians.
Looking forward to seeing more content. 🙌🙌
Really great video, im so tempted to get some Nurgle Daemons in, dont know why…
I love when he announces that he is taking a drink. I look forward to it in each video. And I'm not being sarcastic.
Keep it up! Love the videos. Very excited for more to come. Great job!
Just caught up with this one. Great vid. I def want to add some nurgle daemons to my list. Love the big boys
Anychance we can have the stats of the modal at the bottem of the slides?
I've actually had some luck in the few times ive brought plaguebearers into games. I bombarded the back lines with plagueburst mortars and opened up room for the plaguebearers to deep strike in the enemy deployment zone and move on the enemy home objective. The 20 OC and 20 T5 wounds in the unit were actually a lot for my enemy to deal with. I rolled well on the invul rolls. My enemy had to turn around and commit a lot to stop me from owning his own objective. It ended up probably being the most impactful 125 points of my army that game. Deep striking a unit of 10 OC 2 bodies is really underrated if you can pull it off
I think your mic is pointing in the air instead of near your mouth
I'd love if we could get obliterators and Cypher as allies 🥺 oblits make sens and would help fill out a role and Cypher would have his uses plus vect on top of being just soo bloody cool!
