Warhammer content that’s not only helpful, but also not bloated with hours of no real helpful discussion? Mr. Woah, you spoil us.

You probably know this already, but damn the best part about your content is how it ISNT 5 dudes in a skype call talking over eachother, or 2 hours of talking about lore with 5 minutes of info on how to play the game. I love your no nonsense videos, please keep it going!

The meme energy is big The helpful advice is big That settles it, who cares about learning to play well, ACTIVATE LEGEND MODE

This is the channel I go to hear words like "perspicacity" woven seamlessly into massively in depth AOS talk. Love it.

“Might as well play oops all thunder tusks” I felt that in my soul with my stradrake and Drac cav.

UPDATE: Cogs nerfed! Some bodyguards nerfed, depending on specific language of the rule, arbitrarily. UPDATE 2: Amulet of Destiny nerfed! Now it's a 6+ which is, imo, weak enough to just take Arcane Tome or whatever. Unless you can not stop rolling 6s, which is a gamer move.

Im just the wierdo that collects the little plastic guys cause i dont feel like playing i just like minis

Listening to this, sitting on two horde-ish 40k armies...it's actually really helpful. Thinking like this about my ork army and separating battlefield roles helped me win some pretty bad matchups. Love your channel, makes me consider getting into Sigmar. AoS seems pretty chill and the models are great

I feel that I just have to give props for the fact that you not only script these videos but also script them good. So many other rule discussion videos (in general, not just warhammer) aren't bad and can make good points, but they tend to be long and rambly and feels like the person talking is saying whatever they happen to think of. Often I just can't really get into them and I get to bored to pay attention after 10 minutes. But your videos stand out just because of how good you are at getting to the point, giving clear and concise arguments and just staying on topic. They're the only AoS rule videos that I keep consistently coming back to when you upload, or even just watch again because I enjoy how you talk about the rules. So please do keep up the great work my guy.

DAMN this is probably one of the best informational videos on AoS I think I found. Like I constantly as 'why is x unit not good and what could be better' because I want to know more and I rarely ever get answers that are informative. But with this setting out all the numbers REALLY helped. Now time to go build an oopse all thundertusk army.

@20:10 MWG does this exactly and it’s HILARIOUS. I love this channel. Thank you Mr. Woah

HeyWoah:"What's GOOD in Age of Sigmar?" GW:"ALL OUT DEFENSE"

You're writing has gotten so sharp and distinct. It's really great to see someone blossom.

32mm with 1" reach is easy to pile in effectively. It's at 40mm that it gets really tough to manage coherency.

Honestly, been adjacently watching the hobby, but finally pulling the trigger. Consuming your content to help me figure what I'm doing.

We’re here to get BIG

I'm mostly just a painter, with the idea of eventually fielding an army as an end goal to keep me focused, but this was still seriously helpful. No point painting a unit i'd be disappointed in playing, but also no point playing an ugly unit. I figure i'll work something out.

Comments for the algorithm god.

Big Woah you're my favorite AOS content creator on youtube. Please don't stop making new videos.

Can we start having a heywoah lounge at events to separate the chads from the dads

Here's a table of contents for anyone returning to this video to review a specific topic. If ya haven't watched the whole thing once, though, ya really oughtta watch the whole dang thing to put the segments into context. 00:19 Play Formats (e.g. Open, Matched, Narrative) 00:37 Getting Started with the Game as a New Player 2:24 Unit Roles Intro 3:26 Unit Roles: Anvils (brief aside on Battle Tactics at 5:43) 7:09 Unit Roles: Hammers (discussion of mortal wounds at 8:58) 10:30 Unit Roles: Ranged 11:12 Unit Roles: Wizards (discussion of Endless Spells at 11:55) 12:33 Unit Roles: Priests 12:49 Unit Roles: Buff Wagons 13:11 Unit Roles: Foot Heroes 13:58 Unit Roles: Chaff 15:14 Unit Roles: Cavalry 16:17 Unit Roles: Bodyguards 16:33 Characteristics Benchmarks Intro 16:46 Characteristics Benchmarks: Speed 17:13 Characteristics Benchmarks: Bravery 17:17 Characteristics Benchmarks: Armor 17:29 Characteristics Benchmarks: Wounds 17:52 Characteristics Benchmarks: Wards 18:02 Characteristics Benchmarks: Wound Transfer 18:16 Characteristics Benchmarks: Hit/Wound/Damage rolls 19:03 Movement Shenanigans 19:54 Battalions 21:03 Non-Hero Monsters 21:22 Legend Status

It's always a great day when Big Woah blesses us with a video. Great to peel back the curtain and have a reference video for list building theory. Now if I could just come up with a list...

You all heard the man. I got permission now. 39 yetis and one Thundertusk! YEEEEAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

PERFECT TIMING, loved the video, and this kinda relates but I just wanted to drop in the comments that your videos helped me get my lifelong friend into AoS! For a long time he would watch 40k lore videos and we'd talk about it, but if I brought up AoS lore at all he kinda just shrugged it off as a whole lot of nothing. If I brought up minis (God forbid) he'd ask how he'd get laid with WiP minis in his apt. Then one time we were watching some 40k lore and for some reason your Gloomspite Gitz video (which is what got ME playing AoS again [with Gloomspite Gitz!]) autoplayed, and I convinced him to watch it through. He loved it, but ended up playing skaven. So yeah, thanks man, love the content!

5/7 must watch

BIG

I have learned more about AOS and list building in general by watching your content. Thank you and keep up the great work!

Me: Oh boy! A new HeyWoah video to help me list build! HeyWoah: *Defines what makes good/bad units* Me: *gets pale and begins sweating in Skaven*

I want to achieve Legend Status with either full foot Battleline Ironjawz or a Troggherd.

*Sad Gloomspite Gitz noises*

I love how your content is so streamlined and levelheaded. Keep up the good work

One of every greater daemon plus Belakor? That sound fun.

I love your work, and this is a prime example of the excellence in delivery that you consistently give to your viewers!

Tmw heywhoah step by step explains why my StD list isnt thought out

Your work is always welcomed and appreciated

im getting into and only buying squigs. I am the one who bounces.

20:12 lmao best AoS advice

Woah sick logo HeyWoah

This could have been a hour and I'd listen to the whole thing. Well done dude. 👏

awesome vid dude, looking forward to your new "every army in x minutes" when it drops

These videos have become better and better as time goes on! Love it.

That Goldlewis took you from a good AOS youtuber to the best AOS youtuber. Congratz.

Big upload, my dude

the intro is so satisfying to listen to

I'm seeing a lot of kings in the comments: BIG FLATS

Great video! I will probably listen to this at least a couple more times as it explains a lot terms I was not familiar with and some others that I never fully understood. The fact that you give some specific numbers on saves and such is a huge help too. I have struggled in understanding what to pick as an Anvil or Hammer for the fact that I hadn't played enough games to understand what was "good" the descriptions you have given are going to help me build something not only I find cool to paint and look at but maybe something I can win a game or two with as well.

5/7 amazing video and defo a must watch for anyone looking to get into AoS (ps my pet units are eltharion and severith and idc if they fail they are basically all i want in a unit in a game, memes with enough punch not to be total trash)

Whooho, great video heywoah:) best twitch content for hobby background in the west for sure!

Thanks for the insights, and glad to see you made a new video.

The two things that genuinely excite me when a new release comes out... Horus heresy books and Heywhoa videos.

Thank you for your time and effort, Woah.

I absolutely love your videos. It’s just a shame they are so rare. Are the twitch streams like this at all? If so I may give it a shot as I don’t use twitch at all but this may get me to.

I love how In almost every positive specialisation there are lumineth realm lords.

Cant wait for that updated video. Love your videos x10

Good to see a new HeyWhoa video, love the content, can't wait for more!

This was a really enjoyable video 🙂 As someone who's recently gotten into AoS and gone all in on Sylvaneth because I love the lore, aesthetics and models, the last tip right at the end made me feel good about my faction choice 💚

Oops! All Archaons

Just bought in with Dominion and like the girl on the show says “I don’t know shit about fuck”, but this was informative and entertaining, and that’s a sub.

Gristlegore and Avengorii are for LEGENDS it seems

Kinda sick how core rules are free in aos while at the same time they realsed 2 books in The row with 3 rules for all armies in without The option for free online version for 40k. It's not only that but in general Aos feels like it's handled better and more customer friendly than 40k. Idk if it's becuse of diffrent management in teams or what, but that is main reason why I prefer to collect and Play aos over 40k.

4:15 LSV cameo made me chuckle for some reason

The sheer fact he mentioned anvils before hammers showed how things changed between the editions

9:58 this is why i gotta sell my slaanesh army after what happened with the new battletome & 2021 ghb

Very nice, very funny! You are the best Aos Content creator Out there!

Another great video. I wish 40k had this kind of friendly meta analysis & guidance.

I want to run a cities all shadowblades, freeguild (for speedbumps) and serpentis army with the 50% deepstrike faction, wish me luck as I pile 40 drakespawn knights and an immortal dragon onto one objective in the middle and put the rest of my army to muck up the enemy with enough skirmish and chaff to cause physical pain, all damage shall come from endless spells and whatever unit is the best hammer in the stormcast range wish me luck second army idea is a two part army of a fuckton of hydras in the front and the greatest hammer to ever exist in the form of 9 gyrocopters and an acidic spray spell turn off armour abilities are great

With my main army being slaanesh this video was as painful as it was helpful.

That was an awesome breakdown. Thanks!

MY MAN GOLDLEWIS SHOWIN UP EVERYWHERE

Excellent vid as always.

No punctuation is best punctuation

20:12 Okay I'll play around the double turn properly but I'm still going to complain about it being there until it goes away.

Wait, open play is not the default and the bestest, most played game mode? GW LIED TO ME?!?!?

great vid, as always

Coming back to this video yet again to start psyching myself up for NOVA this year, going to be my first event for any game

Excellent vid mate

Best aos content online. Period.

Yall think Radukar the Beast fits in the “good duelist” category?

new intro looking fresh.

Rejoice! The King of Analogies returns to us.

I hope we play each other at Holy Havoc this year, I've got the ultimate dad army in the works. Is an all steam tank and gyrocopter army a good idea? No. But I can't wait to lose.

I play Sons of Behemat because I like big goofy giants and an army that is easy to play while super stoned but now with 3rd edition I somehow ended up with a competitive army and now I have become "that guy" at my LGS. XD

I'm 7 mins into this video and it can actually help me in 40k thank you so much xx you get a sub and a like.

Oh hell I think that last part was directed twords me and my Trog hag princess LOL

You missed the section on how good Wild Riders are?????? 🙃

Goddamn this channel is so good - genuinely laughed at the 'bar in a waiting room' line and it makes me really want to try a tournament just because everyone sounds so friendly. The only question is, which Dad army do I play...

Hot tips if you play khorne. 1) skarbrand is a chad deleter a glass cannon with bad movement bc lore wise his wings were torn off by khorne. Stilll not a lot of people play khorne so watch as they confidently run up with a maw crusha only to get rammed by carnage hitting them 6 times for an average of 48 mortals. 2) demon prince of khorne is already the best one might as well include them here as well he makes the charging phase so ridiculously unfun for anyone playing against him but we have terrible movement so we might as well make theirs the same. 3) Blood secrator gives you punch for an army barely hanging on to win a match he makes your weak units probably on par to other races he also makes your few good units even better. Others of note are blood stoker for a similar reason as the secrator we are kinda slow and he will put 1 unit on a similar speed once a turn. Bloodthirster of insensate rage or lovingly known as boom thirster is a swingy hammer unit but can devistate the opposing army given the right board state and luck. And just from preference skull cannons are the units I fell in love with with the ability to imediately shoot whenever you kill a model in melee. Who says shooting cant be khorne? As for the slaughter hosts which are our groups we really got 2 as far as I am concerned reapers of vengence makes skarbrand or a boomthirster attack twice. Or goretide which is objective based and trying to get hordes of blood reavers to do something if you do that one take 2 secrators and try not to engage all the time just enough to take objectives.

Broooo I was dying laughing starting at 21:20 you are exactly correct!

Would seriously want more .

Fantastic stuff, love it.

How have I never seen this channel before? Easy sub and I'm gonna' check twitch now too.

All the praise for Gotrek makes me even sadder that we can't put him in a skyvessel. I'm personally still waiting for a unique character akin to the warbands who's an Arkanaut Admiral coupled with his boat (probably a frigate) who can scoop up everybody as long as they have less than a certain amount of wounds per model. Probably either trash or hella broken, who knows. *But I want it.*

oh snap. more content!

i have no idea what you were talking about but somehow i understood you lol ill be watching alot of you for a while as i try and learn this game lol

Again, I am impressed. Cheers!

Bro I have not lost my GUO in a single game in AOS. And he is even more tanky now! It’s absolutely Absurd

Legend status!! This is the way!!

I feel like I should make this my daily meditation... Also 10 VP for the clown segment. - edit - Holy crap, the "Dad Game" segment

Ight ima need a list for the Dad Nagash Katakros army

Fun vid. Enjoy the style
