Stormcast Eternals Bunker Buster: Age of Sigmar Army Masterclass

[@andremcgowan8839]

Rob, once again thank you so much for this content. It is unreal for noobs like myself to try to learn. Love that you added that deployment section too like i mentioned last time.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Happy to add it where I can

[@mursey40k14]

Just wanna say again how much I love this format.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Appreciate you

[@robertviscomi8199]

Please continue these masterclass and list break downs. Fucking absolutely incredible work! I am information hungry and battle reps don't always convey the information you need to learn efficiently for specific types of learners. This is perfect.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

If people like them enough then I'll keep going

[@Deckboxxes]

These Masterclass videos have been really good! Very good to watch and pretty digestable if you have some basic knowledge of the game. Well done!

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Much appreciated! Trying really hard with them

[@devindraper7905]

The visualization of everything is *chef's kiss*, really dig the more produced content on this channel!

[@SeanDitchfield]

This is already the most useful AoS series I’ve seen. Understanding how a list works helps you beat it. Could I put in a request for a Nurgle flies breakdown?

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Noted!

[@paulkant8615]

Like all the other people said before: This new series is nuts! Please, make more of these.

[@adambehr4359]

This is what I would do, not based off of anything other than these are the models I own. - Army Faction: Stormcast Eternals - Army Type: Stormkeep - Subfaction: Hammers of Sigmar - Grand Strategy: The Day is Ours! - Triumph: Inspired LEADERS Lord-Celestant on Stardrake (500) - General - Command Traits: Master of Magic - Stormbound Blade - Artefacts of Power: Arcane Tome - Mount Traits: Scintillating Trail - Spells: Chain Lightning Celestant-Prime (330) Lord-Arcanum (140) Lord-Relictor (150) - Prayers: Translocation - Aspects of the Champion: Tunnel Master BATTLELINE Dracothian Guard Fulminators (480) Sequitors (120) Sequitors (120) ENDLESS SPELLS & INVOCATIONS 1 x Everblaze Comet (90) 1 x Quicksilver Swords (60) TOTAL POINTS: 1990/2000 Created with Warhammer Age of Sigmar: The App

[@Fotta1989]

This was amazing. I particularly appreciated the deployment diagram and the "how to fight this list" segment.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@salimcahuas1412]

Absolutely invaluable commentary and tips, thanks mate.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Glad you enjoyed it!!!

[@loamy3227]

no exaggeration - this is the absolute best AOS series on KZbin. You are so good at explaining the game in terms that I can understand. You’ve cleared up so much jargon I didn’t understand before. Thank you.

[@wargamerwilly8756]

This is incredible, I've never been good at tactics at all, and your videos are a god send! Thank you, it's much appreciated

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Glad to help!

[@NathanLukeWallace]

The fact this archetype isn't called "Synergistic Management Solutions" is a missed opportunity Rob.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

On the way

[@alexisherbeck3469]

Great Masterclass, hope for more Stormcast since they have quite a few lists available.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Definitely

[@austinfarnum1490]

Just played a variant of this at a 15 player rtt..great success 1st place... i had a unit of terrawings instead of farstriders, because didnt own them

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Nice work! Well done!! Fantastic work

[@raigomander2817]

Loving this deep analysis videos, and as a Stormcast player, I greatly appreciate this one. I used to play a version of this list back in 2.0 (without allies though) to bust open Seraphon castles. Lots of fun! So much, that I kinda had to stop using it... Just a tiny note: Vanquishers (unfortunately) only get the banner bearer and the musician (and thus, the 5+ Rally) when they're a unit of 10 or more...But anyway, you, and everyone, take them because they're the cheapest battleline, soo it doesn't really make a difference. Thanks again for the video! Keep up the great work!

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Thanks a lot. Yeah I'm still confused about the vanquisher thing as one source said I could. Games workshop is bad at digital fidelity

[@Camlorious]

I loved the editting in this video. Very funny jump cuts and of course great information. Well done.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Much appreciated!

[@Curran_Kleen_Brown]

Love seeing another one of these! They are very well explained, and helpful!!!

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Glad you like them!

[@bigtomcurbstomp]

you’re doing amazing things - keep it up. Thanks for another killer video.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

On it thanks

[@Clintv42]

1) very thorough break down, excellent analysis of how to use/counter 2) unbutton that top button Rob, show us a little skin 3) in general love the continued refinement of your videos. Very tight and professional

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Hahah I'll show you some sass buddy

[@MenagerieAU]

Great content Rob. I can see the production value and effort you've put into this is really high. More please!

[@TheHonestWargamer]

I will do! Thanks for the feedback. Means a lot to me

[@connorclifford]

Love this! Just ordered the list. Reminds me of ctan spam in 40k

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Wow. We'll have a great time with it bud

[@embrandt1382]

This is an amazing series. It helps understand what an archetype does obviously. But the main thing for me is, that it was explained in such a way, that it helps applying this to lists, that are different but might do something similar

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@justinfloyd1471]

Great video. I really appreciate the breakdown of how the list functions as a whole, not just reading off the warscrolls. Do more of these!

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Sure thing!

[@ncfcpaul8761]

Really like this type of content, so good and loads of thoughts, ideas and strategies I can apply to my army, great stuff! Please do more for different armies!

[@TheHonestWargamer]

I will. This took me a week so I've got too over the top with them. Need to reassess

[@nicolajmehlbye7656]

Perfect content! More of this Rob.

Love, love, love this series! I’m genuinely looking forward to each video. You have a gift for being concise, informative, and entertaining all in one. Can’t wait to see what’s next.

[@pauloldham8039]

Great video, aspiring new player here. (although I have not played a game yet) Busy painting an army. These videos really help understanding the game.

[@OneShard]

Rob, you are amazing at making AoS accessible.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Oh thanks! Means a lot to me

[@Enballgroda1]

The deployment section is real handy. I've been playing AoS for four years and I always feel like a complete dullard when I'm deploying.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

It's the most important part but I guess the most difficult to understand and appreciate

[@Campaigner82]

This one is even better than the first 🙂 The counter part was a great addition

[@SamuelDouglasKendall]

This is great. I hope you do one for Tzeentch, my favorite army but I’ve never ever been able to play them competently.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Hey Rob. Another great video analysis of an army type. Great fan

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Thanks I super appreciate that

[@ramonsilva7210]

All right, I had to like it after the waking up in the middle of the night hearing. No no. Don't cast it.... Now imagine hearing somebody also saying afterwards I'm going to cast the comet next. Also excited about a master class in deployment. The production value of your videos now is exceptional so thank you for providing good info.

[@greyseer6089]

This is great: clear, witty, well-edited, strong production values and branding, and with lots for beginners to think about. It would be great if they could be accompanied by a short blog or written articles. Videos are awesome, but ultimately I'm always going to return to the written word rather than trying to fast forward through a video or podcast to find that one point someone made. No complaints (other than 'synergies' isn't a word, and is a terrible import from management consultancy. Fire it into the sun!).

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Hey I really appreciate what you've written. We are updating our website so it's got a blog with it

[@jaksautsendari]

That was great idea with this videos - a lot of knowledge, nice to listen you, and i hope that will be more ;) I'm waiting for Tzeentch, my new army which i can't already play properly

[@BuffShamansplz]

Very cool breakdown, recently caved and pick up SCE since they have so many options and offer some options my army does not. They've grown over me over time despite the contrarian I am. Heywoah's video + basically being Einherjar and an underdog fluff wise makes them so much more bad ass. Just don't paint them gold.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

There's some excellent none gold versions

[@Jenkins_N7]

Great content, really enjoying this new format. My only suggestion would be maybe to hear more from Owen. I know there's a seperate interview but a few sound bites of his key thoughts for this list would be nice.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Noted! The issue is that the interview really does that well and is a stream of consciousness from a gamer. He's very eloquent and it's worth listening too

[@kylecook5996]

Great video! Love this content - really helps some of us newer competitive players. Maybe a video on the various battlefield roles that units have? or general list building and list architypes?

[@kylemarullo9552]

idk if you consider it a bunker buster, but I've been running a Verminlord Deceiver, a grey seer with the skaven's master of magic command trait and the warp-lightning vortex. You use the deceiver for Dreaded skitterleap the grey seer putting it just outside of 6" rather than the normal 9" allowing it to reach deeper into the enemies backline. Then use the grey seer to cast the warp-lightning vortex and then can use the normal skitterleap to get out, and the skaven's master of magic allows the grey seer to reroll casting it does.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Love that. No idea what to call that other than amazing

[@kylemarullo9552]

As a Git, I can safely say wehatez those pesky comets! I have to choose between having galletian veterans and insta loosing to this list, or playing Gobbapalooza and Zarbag's company to be able to have some ablative wounds for my wizards. Excellent content btw!

[@davegarghan6180]

Thanks for this video really interesting watch/listen! Bit of an AoS noob (coming form 40k & Heresy etc.) I don't play tournaments but good to get an idea for my Stormcast list, I have one built already so punctuated that with some stuff out of this. I also have a Nighthaunt List which I painted during that time when we weren't allowed to leave our homes... Appreciate you're super busy, is there a plan to do this type of video for Nighthaunt at all? (Sorry if you've done it already and I haven't found it!)

Loving the deep dives. Average cost to get to table could be interesting.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

In money? I understand why but I don't really think about that. Life finds a way as a they say

[@olafolafsson2755]

Without dragons the Stormcasts ability to score battletactics in the new ghb are quite tough imho. Because they dont have enough useful booktactics. With a typical lord relictor general, "This one is mine" will also be almost unachievable.

[@TheHonestWargamer]

Slaan is a GC though so it's not useless

Thanks. I'll sort it

[@skreechverminking2227]

Hello there rob, so I was kinda wondering. Lately you’ve been doing a lot of faction reviews, strategies, ideas and so on. And while I know that you love the skaven, just barely as much as me, and it seems that you aren’t too fond of the mew book (nor am I) how does it sound as an idea that you would do a review of your own opinion of why the skavenbook is bad and what you would have liked to see in a 3.0 skaven book.

[@andrewpepper-parsons9630]

Really interesting video, found as a newish player who rarely knows what their doing really useful. Is this list a sort of combo deck in Magic, using really powerful combinations to win the game.

[@quinnreid1209]

At LVO i played hedonites vs a 5 Vexilor list. I took first turn and committed 2 keepers of secrets into the vexi-bunker. Amd spread out my army mostly. Predictably the Keepers didn't kill a single vex.. 6 wound heroes in a terrain feature and me not rolling 6s. He still had to vex-bomb the heck out of the Keepers, because they were likely to win the next combats otherwise. So i mitigated a lot of damage and had a good pace against the army overall. A Vexillor also survived like 14 attacks from Sigvald... can i please get some rend?

[@NapGod]

This is interesting. The lack of significant buff auras in the StD tome which I thought a weakness could actually be construed as a strength allowing a more spread out deployment with groups of units able to operate semi-independently since the marks from vows of the dark gods know no bounds. Or am I talking out of my depth.

[@joschang9466]

Awesome video! I'm so happy to see you follow my feedback about timestamping the video for ease of replaying purposes! The only thing I can contribute is that the Vanquishers can't take the musician or standard bearer unless there is at least 10 models in the unit. I hope you don't get too many comments on that 😅 The last thing to note is to discuss confusing rules that might be left in the original battletomes that are in the FAQ. An example would be that the battletome says ANY wizard can cast the Arcane Comet and was errata'd to be only Stormcast Wizards. (And I think that would be the only FAQ ruling in this particular list) Other than those, this video covers the general game plan very well and is very thorough about how each model plays out. I look forward to your next videos and I hope my feedback can further contribute to your work 😁

[@MrOK-fx2ep]

The official AoS list builder allows for musician and flag in 5 man units. The only requirement mentioned in the unit build is that you can only have 1 per unit.

[@joschang9466]

@@MrOK-fx2ep Oh good to know. May I also ask which builder you’re using? I think what I’m using is bugged. I’m using the App and it won’t let me add the Musician or the Standard unless it’s at 10 or more models. It also says in the Warscroll, “1 in every 10 models in this unit…” so I assumed it wasn’t a bug.
