6 Genestealer Cults units to always include in your Army List (40k 10th edition)

[@MGPW]

Thanks! I only had one GSC unit (the lads with hardware tools and you bet I gave them hi-vis), but now one of my housemates moved out and left me his minis, which includes a squad of Jackals, so I sort of want to pad it out to maybe a 500 point mini collection that could be used in Horde Mode, or alternatively could fill the other 500 points with Battle Brothers or Vanguard. And at that small number, it's more about just picking a few nice things that stand out rather than getting into serious "Well for THIS detachment I would want..."

Welcome to the cult.

[@NicholasPickleous]

Another methodology is to buy what makes you excited to paint and play around them.

[@nosbigdamus9665]

You always give us good stuff Great information

[@lucastb1775]

Abberants can be pretty amazing in HoA too: 7 inch charge from Deepstrike and Lethal, Sustained on 5+ is crazy on 10 abberants with biophagus.

[@Crouza]

Mine is always going to be the duo of the Reductus and the Kelermorph. They may not be good, they may not even fit, but I find them really cool, and I'll take them whenever I can.

[@sevgar5128]

The reductus can totally fuck a terminator squads's day and can Even put a big hole in light vehicules

Noticing the mic sounds a little off in this episode. I'm hoping that's not gonna remain the case, this is good content.

I did a windows update - it messed with stuff and I am still trying to fix it all

@@ChristianVonCarmian40kVtuber as a software dev this is far too relatable, I know your pain good sir.

[@Kingtot]

My favorite unit is the *magus* ...said noone ever.

As a miniature yes, as a Datasheet… well…

[@beebeebees]

The lady magus is a cool mini

Damn we exorcist enjoyers catching strays in this one

[@santifuengi]

hello!! can you explain us who its possible to win a match with the new detachment???

[@ChristianVonCarmian40kVtuber]

yes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnzUgKqfbNt_p9Usi=J9Z3VHue5DlEJSyQ

[@randomberk]

Spotter doesn't affect indirect though. They always hit on 4s unless I've missed a change?

[@ChristianVonCarmian40kVtuber]

The current indirect fire rules mean you have -1 to hit to a max of 4+. If you normally hit on a 4+ you are pushed to 5+. Improving your BS to 3+ means you will hit on a 4+

[@randomberk]

@ChristianVonCarmian40kVtuber oh blimey. I'd missed the -1 wording. I thought it was just a flat "indirect hits on 4s". Thanks 🙏

[@JB-kr5rk]

I’m not entirely sure about how you would deploy after reserving your entire army, like wouldn’t that just be a massive disadvantage from turn 1 due to the lack of units on the board, I’m missing something.

[@Omegaspl33n]

I always have my abominant or Big Thumpy as i call him in my lists. But i always try and work a rock grinder into my lists. Its not optimal but yelling "bang bang honda gang" when i charge with it is optimal for my soul

[@AAw3s0m3]

I've not seen much mention of the Final Day detachment. Does that have anything top tier in it, or is it more just a fun awesome idea?

[@ChristianVonCarmian40kVtuber]

It can do some powerful things: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnzUgKqfbNt_p9Usi=IEPtQmedsQozeowH

[@AAw3s0m3]

@@ChristianVonCarmian40kVtuber I did see that vid and it was a blast to watch as a 'Nid player, but I didn't get much sense of how it squares up to the other detachments for GSC. That could just be my goldfish memory though ngl

[@ChristianVonCarmian40kVtuber]

@@AAw3s0m3 for shooting style Final Day, Ascension Host does it better; for combat style the +1 to hit and monsters are very good and I prefer it to biosanctic (few other people will)

[@AAw3s0m3]

@@ChristianVonCarmian40kVtuber So shooting is decent and glorious melee combat is potentially the best? To me it definitely wins on the fluff/theme! Thank you for the responses Mr virtual-tuber sir!

[@isaachaahr8691]

I would definitely put final day in the A tier detachments for gsc. In my opinion is goes A biosanctic, outlander, and final day. B xenocreed and host. C brood brothers.

Why are all Genestealer models basically humanoid it would be cool to see some Xenos Genestealers

I think something bad happened to the audio quality it hurts my ears and I put it on the lowest setting possible just wanted to mention that maybe other people encountered the same problem I never had this problem with any of your other videos before

[@whipseryname4295]

Genuine question is the Abominant actually a lady?

[@sevgar5128]

Maybe some of them lol

[@stylesheetra9411]

the detachments are the worst thing happpened to 40k recently tbh

[@insert-cony8379]

I have been a fan of w40k for more than 20 years, but I started playing it late, now when the tenth edition was released. I understand that this thing about detachments now came out in the tenth edition, and that before each faction had a lot of stratagems that could be used in any detachment. and the detachments were nothing more than a special rule focused on something and then you applied the stratagems of your army that best suited you. If that's the case and I'm not wrong, then I think the same as you and then I think that the detachments thing is the worst thing they could have done.

[@stylesheetra9411]

​@@insert-cony8379 yeah you are right detachments in 10ed are inspired by lord bonus in total war warhammer and imo kill both list building and flavor

[@isaachaahr8691]

How does it kill list building? Gsc has the least to complain about in that regard since each of our detachments want different units and the new cult ambush system also rewards having different options to bring back. A biosanctic list and an outrider list are going to be 1500 points different.

[@stylesheetra9411]

@@isaachaahr8691 Having a detachment being "bring units A,B,C instead of units X,Y,Z" and another detachment being "bring units X,Y,Z instead of units A,B,C" is just bad Zero flavor, zero list building, just put every units that get +1 and stratagems and you are good to go
