Building Lists to Themes

[@connorbaird8596]

These kinds of videos are some of Macca's best in my opinion. Hope to see more like these

[@BittermanAndy]

Yes, more like this, and less about pointless storm-in-a-teacup internet drama or moaning about GW.

[@willnox1]

@@BittermanAndy you mean speaking the truth?

[@BittermanAndy]

Don't care whether it's "truth" or not. Sure, if it makes you happy, yeah: truth, fine. It's just incredibly tedious and uninteresting to watch, listen to, or read. "@MarinePlayer69 said something WRONG about what I said about SPACE MARINES and now here's three posts, two polls, and a video explaining why this is TOXIC!". Could not possibly care any less. Stick to the actually-interesting videos about gaming, rules, or fluff.

Hey Maca ;) Some comments on the lists you made: Orbital SOH: 1. you need a master of the legion in order to unlock the RoW (probably replace the champion by a praetor/delegatus or a named character of some sort) 2. contemptors don't have access to normal drop pods, it must be either a dread drop pod or dreadclaw (or kharybdis but that's overkill) 3. I'm not sure the master of signal can use the signum on the landed missile squad, they must snapshot as they are using heavy weapon even with the signum buff (not sure on that one) Armored generic list 1. You changed your mind but the elite apothecaries can't join a terminator unit, for them to get FnP they must be joined by a primus medicae 2. I would avoid deep striking units without any bonus/protection. Scattering without a pod is too nasty, you're super vulnearable on the turn you arrive Nice to see some ideas of what a real list look like ;) If possible if you try this agin I would try to add the rough unit cost in order to explain what you can and cannot do points wise

[@TheOuterCircle]

1. I noted that verbally, I just said I'd use the model to represent it. 2. I also noted that the drop pod was a stand in for a dreadpod. 3. He cannot on arrival, but it's for subsequent turns, so that the unit in turn 2 and onwards has the potential to be +1 Ballistic skill. 1. The same as the centurion, the picture used was for an apothecary, but the option would have been a HQ unit, which is why I decided to not go with them as I wanted to free that slot. 2. In lists with the Damocles, it's not so bad as it has a 24" no scattering bubble. Otherwise, sometimes you have to gamble XD

[@CaptainPlunk]

​@@TheOuterCircle 1. You talked about a champion/master of signal and afterward you used the praetor instead ^^ 2. My bad ;) 3. A bit clunky if you want to use them as air defense but why not 1. As I said I know you changed your mind but maybe it would be easier for new players to really explain what's the difference between the two as I know from experience that they can make the confusion 2. ahah true but I have big no no in my lists when I face proteus/alpha legion shenanigans when I have to play resevre :p Unless you're a legion with inbuilt reserve buff like white scars or Soh Thanks for the response, imo it is the best content to give a good idea for new players on where to begin ;)

[@svenmiddleton7160]

Hi Dad! Please please come home, mum really misses you and uncle Richard keeps acting weird.

[@anguswilsonspillane1302]

Love this kind of content. Are you planning to remake the whole getting started playlist as I would love to see new videos for all the Legions.

[@jamesfrederick5658]

Great video Macca, would be interested to see your take on a Night Lords 'The Swift Blade' ROW force.

[@OzymandiasRex]

Who else is starting a new Army for 2022?

[@BrianOConnor]

I'm up in the air between blood angels or white scars.

[@OzymandiasRex]

@@BrianOConnor sorry for the late reply but I think white scars would be the choice over blood angels who are honestly too ubiquitous. Plus you can blast the Hu to intimidate your opponents!

[@MoggAssassin]

Thanks for this, it really gives good advice to those of us working blind and having little to no experience in HH games other than theory craft.

[@garvielloken3929]

NOOICE!

[@arcangellord5372]

Thank you for the guides and vids macca

[@tabe8850]

I loved this video! Thx for this. Great info here!

[@Thatworldeatersguy]

This is big jizz can’t wait to watch this while eating my cornflakes

[@henrythe9th377]

Ha! Cornflakes was originally invented to DISCOURAGE such activities.

[@Thatworldeatersguy]

Was not disappointed double big jizz. Going to have to start a SoH orbital assault army now thanks macca 😒

[@quart5extakkord]

Very interesting and informative video. Thank you

[@tomseppanen2316]

Damn i was a sleep during this, wanted to mention my iron hands bitternes of iron rite of war force.

[@ignitedxblaze]

Missed out on text channel suggestions, but a friendly ordo reductor list down the road would be cool!

[@WarmasterPainting]

Great vid. Hope you do another.

[@TheOuterCircle]

Of course, lots and lots of lists to still work through!

[@killtu2]

I am curious about something. I know Horus Heresy is mostly marines, but can you play Imperial Army Guardsmen? The normal human forces of the Imperium / Horus Forces?

[@dbayles3677]

Yeah mate you’ve got the solar auxilia being the main one, not super oy fey with the rest but I want to say also the cults imperialis?

[@Thatworldeatersguy]

Yeah imperial militia and cults matey they have some pretty good rules tbf

[@LongWarEnjoyer]

Imperial army

[@LongWarEnjoyer]

Macca: complains about IF being too op. Also Macca: adds 6 rapier batteries too IF army....😢😂

[@LordoftheSwarm]

Do you think you could do a video on this same topic but with shattered legions? I have World Eaters and I was looking to add either Word Bearers for the Shadow Crusade or Sons of Horus/Nightlords for Task Force Ygetheddon from the books. I'm trying to use Shattered Legions rules to create a narrative without breaking the game. Imagine WE/SoH/Nightlords in a Recon Company RoW instead of IF/IH in a Stone Gauntlet RoW... One seems fair the other sounds broken. Thanks!

[@ricktoriousgamer]

How did you know I wanted to build this list for my Sons of Horus Macca?

[@stationary_bandit6607]

Has anyone looked at doing a Great Scouring-era force for 30K? I am thinking about doing a Doom Eagles (Second Founding) force.

[@dark-hh5ho]

One theme I'd like to see is a loyalists of the traitor legions cause I'm building a loyalists night lords army.

[@Kharmazov]

IMHO try Brethren of Iron rite of war.

[@phantomjoker5]

aah content

[@MKeele83]

Is there a blood angels portion of this video? And if so what is the time stamp on when this is discussed??

[@magnos_decimus]

I have no interest in the Horus Heresy setting I'm just here for themed armies.

[@arcangellord5372]

Thank you for the guides and vids macca
