Bro Nork Deddog and Straken! HARKER! SLY MARBO! OGRYN BODYGUARD! LETS GO! See, these boys just need a few games to be field tested and given a few chances to shine. Its upsetting when someone runs a unit, like Harker for ex., and they don't use scout sentinel, no take aim, shoot into something with -1 to hit or just not a good target for him, he flops, and people go "well he's shit." Without actually giving him a fair chance. This BR has the best if not one of the best displays of "Lets Rock!" "I ain't got time to bleed." "It's Harkin' time." I've seen. Good work. Another one is Sly, you're the first to actually use his tech, no one has used him to any potential and you showed exactly what he can do. He's like a one man missile that can fly up a flank, be annoying, and score points all game. 9" Move for the entire round is crazy. He did all that for you and don't forget he counts as an Astra M. unit so when they shoot at him, and he survives because of stealth/lone op. he can shoot back. It's crazy he can shoot 3/4 times a battle round. ( I feel like you definitely picked up on my comment on Cadian Sgt. Steele's vid ;- ) ) Same goes for Nork and Straken. Dude this playstyle has play, you broke it down like: "You're basically playing with Straken, and Nork. And they have 24 ablative wounds." That's exactly it, those two were putting in work. And hell yeah the headbutt gets to shine when you get into 4/5 combats. You rolled double 6 twice in a row too which is crazy. 12 mortals over 2 turns, not even counting his combat. He's worth the 20pts, let alone he's badass and actually fun. Excuse my damn essay I'm just really passionate about the wargame and I love your content and I want to get out my thoughts on the matter.

Awesome comment. It was a good read, thank you! I follow Cadian Steel on Insta but haven't seen his videos. I like the Guard Characters to do their thing occasionally, Hero moments!

The rupture cannon, you're either going to roll two 1's to hit or two 1's for damage lol

You love it and still run it for the same reason I do. Because once in 1000 games when the stars align, you turn one shot a land raider before it can even take a turn and subsequently kill a couple black Templars inside. It can happen, I've done it, don't give up hope!

It is really sad to see the Codex Tyranid in play: is one of the worst codexes ever, and is disadvantaged by main rules too, as poor bugs don't get grenades or tank shock strats either (and monsters should have it). See this only by the volume of re-rolls, fnp and sinergic rules the Guard gets in comparison with them. And in this particular game, we, sad Tyranid players, discover also that the guard is better in close combat too...who has written this poor bugs codex??? An imperial zealot???🤣🤣😅😇

Yea, Nids are in a tough spot. Guard aren't better in combat... just Straken... He's been there, seen it. Killed It!

@@HereticDave40k not talking only about Straken (Ogryns are very good) however I've seen Tyranids win but to do that they are forced not to play as bugs...one of the best unit is a shooting unit (Tfex), they should be awesome in melee but they don't reach melee and once there not so good...where is the old good Onslaught granting at least one unit to run and charge? A lot of rules disappeared, without others coming to compensate. Not talking about the fun of being able to be as destructive and straightforward as other factions more easily are...
