The Solar Auxilia are coming to 30k in plastic, so we should see many more armies rising up in the future. Here's a little look at what they can do in this 3000 point game of Warhammer Horus Heresy.

Your opponent wasn't playing the quad launchers quite properly... they follow the multiple barrage rules which means you roll a scatter dice and 2d6 for the first shot... but each of the others only roll a scatter die to see where the second blast lands in relation to the first blast marker. A hit allows you to place the second blast anywhere so long as it's touching the first at 1 point.

Thanks for the game Winters! I had a great time, even with some poor rolls it was a great game and lots of fun, I'll bring some of the new toys to the next one, maybe my full lasrifle horde could get a showing or some of the big armour! :)

I give you a ton of respect for playing a tough army to play. Raven Guard are a great army and I play against it and his army is very similar...very brutal to play against.

That Solar Auxilia Warlord is insane. Not just dueling an Astartes but soloing a squad was crazy

@zenosAnalytic 2 ай бұрын

that was a GR8 battle report! Watching those venatarii(sp? the volkite elites) wipe a tactical squad was a Sight, and one assumes Guardsman Dave is probably a khornate demon prince by 40k having single handedly taken down a terminator XD And those Vanquisher put in SO MUCH work! The final score really does not do justice to how well-played the Auxilia ere here; what a show!!

@ozzydozzy73 2 ай бұрын

Brutal game. Seeing solar auxilia is a treat, but I think bad rolls and the deployment/terrain layout reaaaaally skewed the match quite a bit. Would love to see the SA make another appearance though!

@dudewheresmylandspeeder8306 2 ай бұрын

Yeah, it was a fun game, and it was interesting to see snipers play such a decisive role compared to most games. As, S5 AP4 with precision shots to take out vox-officers and such is pretty clutch, especially with SA leadership. It really did hurt to see those laser destroyers lost so early in the match though.

Cool Siouxse shirt bro ! BTW great video. I think it’s good to explain why took your units and the components of the army. That explains a lot to someone wanting to get into 30K thanks. Liked and subscribed.

How do the Autocannon team get Shirmish? Also Autocannon teams dont get shroud as they have the Heavy Sub-Type Imfavisors only affacts the model that its equipped on.

@DaddyWarCrimes78 2 ай бұрын

Infravisors give out Night Vision. The whole unit gets the benefits of Night Vision as long as one model has it.

Like and comment to support best wh40k channel as usual) Spoilers: I watched several reports on other channels with Auxilia, and it can win only other Auxilia) Even with Shadowsoards, Baneblads and other 'big tonks'. Or it should be combined with marines. Only Auxilia - is really playing heresy on a hard mode

Thanks for the Heresy!Brilliant game. Most SA units doesnt make any sense with the current ruleset. For example what are Ogryns for?you'd think they are the much needed anti dreadnought weapons but whoops... WS! They should have rending 4+ to balance their low Initiative and massive strength or just give them AP2 .Same with their Tanks.

@DaddyWarCrimes78 2 ай бұрын

Solar are definitely in a bad place. The army relies on big command tercios of Companion squads full of plasmaguns, Rapier laser destroyer tercios, and Vanquisher squadrons to actually kill things, since none of the Elites can be relied on to actually do their job, Dracosans are grossly overpriced, and the army has no assault vehicle transports. You can definitely make it work, but it looks a whole lot like a series of smash cuts between Sharpe and a History Channel about 73 Easting.

@kurtl8425 2 ай бұрын

Beautiful battlefield and two gloriously crafted armies. One question I have though. As someone who likes to at least have a chance of winning and also works for a living so has both a time and money gaming budget. It makes one wonder how many players are going to invest in a SA army?

@BUGS9000 2 ай бұрын

I could be wrong, but dont you need to have an outflank marker at the beginning of the game for where your your outflankers will come in?

@slusk1981 2 ай бұрын

Barrage weapons with several shots from the same unit only roll the scatter dice without the 2d6 for consecutive shots after the first and flip off the first blast (hits can be positioned touching any marker).

@THeMightyWarHamster 2 ай бұрын

Minor gripe - as bad as Dracosans sadly are, you can't actually keep them from shooting the demolischer. They're Reinforced, so they ignore crew shaken and the snapshot part of crew stunned. Doesn't matter much, since the demolisher is hot garbage, but stil.^^

Do you mean Demolisher cannons? Because Winters was rolling a 5++ invuln against the actual Vanquishers iirc.

@DaddyWarCrimes78 2 ай бұрын

They don't. Vanquishers are AP2 and Brutal 2 with Sunder. They're pretty much the best anti-tank that the Solar get access to, especially when a squadron has an attached command tank with a cognis signum.

@3v3rhard 2 ай бұрын

@@DaddyWarCrimes78 not anti tank, anti multi wound. The vanquisher is alright antitank, lascannons are better. The brutal is wasted on armour.😅

gotta say it was pretty disappointing when all of his leadership was wiped out with no contest and then his elite spacemarine killers just rolled 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1 for several turns. 15 of these insane axe-men wailing for THREE TURNS in combat before any of them rolled a six to wound was insane.

Just got to say huge fan but not attacking the tank at the end as you forgot but regular allow this even if it didn’t effect the battle I’d like to see the combat as a few bad rolls can change the game then next turn charging it wrecking it in one turn shows how this could have effected the game if you been unlucky rolling in the gameI know this would have not improved the result in the end but it potential could do differently and after investing time to watch then you go easy at the end is frustrating still huge fan just sharing my opinion I’d rather the battle reports be one sided but 100% represented bye skill and full efforts then story told bye the dice.
