LUMINETH UNIT GUIDE: Ydrilan Riverblades - Is this the best unit in the LRL index right now?

[@Hughzaa9]

I’d be keen to see a video breaking down 2-3 good Lumineth Lists. Going into detail about how you would plan to score points, how you would deploy properly to achieve that etc etc.

[@ElCampeondelEmperador]

I second this request, it would be great and also a 1k solid list for new people to the faction

[@stoickes]

I’m struggling here too!

[@strategoi]

Great ideas. I'll give them some thought when I return from holiday ❤️

[@jacecontos6912]

Yes plz

[@awijntje14]

Units like this make so excited for the remaining nations and units like Tyrion!! Thanks for making these videos!

[@strategoi]

Same here, man!

[@chrish1645]

Yeah these guys are so good. Amazing utility and like you said the damage is pretty decent into the right targets.

[@strategoi]

Yeeep ❤️

[@Childhood.87]

Again a great video and from only one experience playing 2 I can back up what you said Jonas. Take their flanks followed by take their land and if we had come to a 3rd round this game they had me scored the one with having a unit in each quarter. I bought 2 already... Even if I was heavy hit by the all the warcry stuff swapped out this edition (for me 11 units went out...) I guess with tyrion coming I rebase them and its fine. Models are great and yeah... They will be up in price but the time we have, we will use it😁

[@strategoi]

Exactly!

[@Herion99]

Great video ! Thanks !

[@strategoi]

Glad you liked it!

[@christianjohansson7185]

Wow, these are scary! Moreso, since i know our local Lumineth-player favours them too. My only hope will be dryching them with bees, before they can gladiate their way through the battle tactics!

[@strategoi]

They fold to any ranged attack, so some kurnoth hunters or some bees will do the trick ❤️

[@richardsapp4475]

Question. I see in the rules where it states that a unit must be in coherency when being placed or ending its move but I can't for the life of me find where it states that I have to remove models if one dies and coherency is broken. Also, if that is the case, wouldn't you stop removing models once the unit was down to less than 7 models left?

[@ParticlGhost]

As an old school Harlequin player, I hate how well these represent what the harlequins should be! Right now I only get the rivervlades to score a battle tactics (which 4-8 is good) before being wiped. I’ve tried charging them but never make the rolls haha

[@strategoi]

Exactly. They reminded me of quins as well 😁

[@christianjohansson7185]

Woah. I only ever got the opportunity to face the harequins once. Are they still viable to field on their own in tenth, or has that all gone away?

[@ParticlGhost]

@@christianjohansson7185 you can if the troupe master is the warlord but they don’t have any detachments and are better now going with yvraine.

[@ThKiller458]

debating getting a box of these, but as I need to build my Lumineth army I might hold off if theyre gonna get legendsed

[@cameronfateweaver2206]

I think most of the Underworlds warbands have been removed - but I think the Warcry warbands aren't probably going to get chopped until AoS 5 if at all...

[@strategoi]

I think these are pretty safe buys. If they'd get squatted, it'd be in a book with a new temple most likely and these guys might end up being that temple unit anyway. 👍

[@ThKiller458]

@@strategoi i suppose we wait til the book

[@edumh22]

Would you recommend getting a second unit of these guys?

[@ryanburruss]

Ryan here. I’m thinking there’s a good chance they get toned down or their price skyrockets, and relatively soon. In addition, having more than one WarCry warband runs the risk that GW will eventually squat them in AoS, so buy with caution. But yes, as they currently stand, they’re def worth having two of

[@edumh22]

@@ryanburruss I will hold my horses then and not buy another one. Thanks for the insight and great videos as always

[@strategoi]

Would have said the exact same thing as Ryan 😁❤️

[@goodmanben31]

Not sure they must always end in combat. I thought (but maybe I’m wrong) you must end in combat only if you pass through models

[@strategoi]

Yeah, I agree it's a bit iffy. I talked this over with Ryan before I used them in our first game and we both decided it''d be so incredibly strong for them to get 2d6 move on top of everything else 🤷‍♂️

[@cameronfateweaver2206]

I have enjoyed using them to assassinate low wound characters or finish off larger characters but you've got to play them well.

[@strategoi]

Exactly!

[@setr5802]

Baha, of course your video right after your detailed analysis of IDK is followed by some analysis of my mortal enemies. I'm looking forward to watching this later. Not a LRL player but on the face of it the riverblade warscroll looks like complete and utter dogshit to my eyes, so I already know this will be a good one.

[@strategoi]

Hehe enjoy hate watching it 😂🤷‍♂️
