Great idea to show examples on the table, something the myriads yt channels talking 40k very rarely do, keep it up!

With the tank shock to open a transport play, if the enemy unit inside had fight first (which ironically that unit you used as generic stand ins does) would the better play to be charge the Deathshroud first, then the hellbrute so your Deathshroud can pile in and kill most of the plague marines before they activate? Which combines your first and third table Aiden techs into one play in a way, because they have to fall out, outside engagement range. Which works very similarly to just killing the 1 guy in range.

@Hikertrash215 2 ай бұрын

Great video. Btw, would you say the Hellbrute is worth bringing in semi-competitive DG lists? Just seems so slow

@benstaffordson7163 2 ай бұрын

Depends on the list. For shooty DG absolutely, ranged contagion is great. For melee DG it's debatable. You still have some shooting and ranged contagion is great - boilblight, -1ap - but it's not as easy. You can try rapid ingressing it to get around it being so slow - 9" away, 6" move, that's an easy charge with the helbrute shock, then tank shock, and you can still apply contagion from both the helbrute and at range.

@deathguarddisgustinglyresilien 2 ай бұрын

Semi competitive he's 100% viable either shooty to spread contagions or a cheeky reserves ingress unit

@TJC87 2 ай бұрын

Hey Aiden, In this video, you always used the Helbrute as an example, which is understandable because it has an awesome Tank Shock profile. However, in competitive play, the Helbrute is rarely in the situations you mentioned. Would you recommend using a Bloat Drone with Mower instead of the Helbrute?

Honestly anything really can work. It's just a tool at our disposal. Allied soul grinders hit really damn hard too! Some metas can also support defilers aswell.

Used one of the previous videos tricked to get a plague marine with heavy plague weapon into a 1 wound Helbrect that was out of charge range. managed to get all 3 hits and wounds but it wasn’t meant to be as he saved all 3 😢

There is no 'low power' on a Helbrute bud. The guy inside understandably goes balls to the wall every time. Good job on the explanations otherwise!

I still don't quite understand how you're able to negate a unit that has fights first. Basically since you destroy a model you successfully charge with tank shock, and since the destroyed model would put your model not within engagement range, they can't fights first and you can activate your model to pile into engagement and then attack first, negating their fight first?

@deathguarddisgustinglyresilien 2 ай бұрын

Pretty much nailed it mate. I'll do the next episode all about fight first and negating it to help clear up any clarity issues :)

@deathguarddisgustinglyresilien I explained this to a friend who didn't agree with your vid saying "I'm pretty sure that's not how it works". I see how it works now, but my friend needs a bit more proof in the pudding to see that his judicar unit basically can't fight me before he does. I'll refer him to your next vid when you go into details on it

@@AriousArchaic on the warhammer app search fight phase and go to the introduction section. It breaks down what is an eligible unit to fight. Then in the video look at the rules and look at the video. The custodes unit can fulfill neither of the requirements needed to be eligible to fight as per the core rules so cannot activate until the helbrute puts them in engagement range

I’m still confused about dodging fight first. I don’t get how it skips it. Wouldn’t feel confident defending that mid game. Great vid btw.

@deathguarddisgustinglyresilien 2 ай бұрын

Because at the point of units being eligible to fight the custodes/fight first are not eligible as they are not within 1" but the helbrute is because it has made a charge move. Once the helbrute is selected to fight it must complete its full attack sequence before the next unit can activate

@@tristonadams8938 when the fight phase starts the unit is not engaged as they are not within 1" of an enemy unit because tank shock is in the charge phase killed the only model that was within an inch. So without being in an inch of the helbrute the unit cannot activate to pile in and fight
