What do you guys mean by a summary turn they seem to be the same?
This video proves why I watch till the very end. STIGGGG
Very fun game!
Beard, I felt your pain there as a fledgling Chaos Knights player myself!
I recently challenged my Custodes playing friend to a game post lockdown. I am regretting that decision now!
Great game guys. Love the match up. Stig I would suggest just being zoomed out a little more to reduce the amount of camera movement. Found myself getting a little frazzled
I’m sure you’ve caught this Chef, but melta missiles from salvo launchers reroll wounds v vehicles!
Oh …. the dice gods are not happy. I feel for you beard, trying to learn all the armies is so hard. Keep up the great work!
very cool game . Not always the case with Knights!
Loved the game – still missing the banter over the army table at the start of the show. Really enjoying seeing Custodes getting more airtime
I have to adress this now: Is beard secretly a hair model?
How and why are this hair and beard like it is?
And when do we get a tactica on it?
Is the secret Nuln Oil?
Loving the work lately team , so much so I felt the need to comment for the first time ever ! Beautiful stuff 👌
Where is the terrain from? The large middle buildings?
I swear, there’s something in Beard’s wrist movement when he rerolls that causes the die to do a full roll (or two) and end up right where it started. This should be scientifically analyzed.
Melta missiles reroll failed wounds dude. Don’t think you’ve done it once hahahaha.
Was beard born with those eyebrows or are they the result of grooming? In the words of Johnny Drama: “If you’re saying they’re real, I ain’t buying it bro.”
Yeah I think they give us a lot of options, particularly from a Secondaries standpoint which can often be hard to pick the right 3 choice with Custodes!
so much fun to watch!
Stig, its good to see you getting your legs back underneath you and having fun, and it was hilarious to see you take a dreadnought that survived 4+ charges from knights…
Beard, I feel your pain. but what can you do right?
Some minor errors in the game, but no big deal, the game was hilarious, and man, those dice!
Thanks for the work guys!
Beard i think your dread blade does not benefit from the house hold trait vextrix the red queen would only benefit from the infernal house ambition daemonic surge ability. Also i think house Lucaris would of really helped this list out with the amount of melee your knights had along with iconoclast bonus,keep up the good work gentlemen love your stuff
Stig! You keep forgetting reroll all failed wounds on melta missiles!
Joking aside, enjoy seeing you get an extended run with the golden boys and generally improving as you learn the intricacies of 9th. Would love to see more FW units from you (Aquilon terminators especially). Definitely think the biggest thing to take away from this is spurious use of cp on speculative rerolls/strats (1cp on arcehotech munitions for only 3 shots against a 4++ springs to mind). Details like that really makes a difference between good and great players.
Entertaining game as always gents.
I’ve been running chaos knights myself a lot recently, they can surprise a lot of armies with their resilience and ability to score. id love to see a tactica with chaos knights.. i could even suggest a few potential list ideas …. (they do seem awesome in my own mind lol)
The only army outnumbered by custodes!
New model syndrome
Well that was ridiculous 😆
Brilliant game, but I can’t decide which is more insane – Beard using about 38 command points, that bloody dreadnought being alive, or the sheer number of ones rerolled into ones!
@stig – I’m very tempted by the Custodes (despite having 4 armies currently and promising I wouldn’t start another…oh how we lie to ourselves/the wife…) What would you recommend as an initial must have for someone starting them?
Cheers lads, really enjoyed this!
That wasn’t even fun to watch. Poor Beard. I feel your pain.
Custodes are so annoying!
Good game, fellas.
Sees new batrep, waaheyy! See’s it’s only 90 minutes long… ohh, poor knights 😔
The Red Queen! I was eager to see her in action again 🙂
Awesome job fellas! Killin it lately, keep it up! Love you guys!
PS
There’s a very good reason why all 3+ invulns are going away and this game was loaded with them lol.
I wouldn’t make that 20 sword and board list if I were you stig. Guaranteed to get nerfed.
Take care!
That was a really fun battle. I won’t keep banging on about the bikes, plus with the point changes yesterday they could be a lot more interesting.
Infantry once again showing how good they are. Have you got any Guard with Pyrithite spears? Worth giving them a go as shooting is a big issue for Custodes.
Big fan of the Galatus too, although not too sure on his damage output; but if you have a Dreadnought with a sword & shield you take him. That’s just science!
Join the golden side! 🌟
Awesome video. But beard forgot that chaos knights get an extra AP to all melee weapons. Wouldn’t have made much of a difference in this game but just something to note.
The golden light about to bring it
Wow this is an early upload, amazing
Custodes!!!!!
Chaos knights with giant cutty cutty and dakkka dakka. A Saturday morning dream. I hope this custards get creamed
You guys are on fire at the moment! 🔥🔥🔥
