One of the greatest meme lists is "OOPS! ALL PRIMARIS LIEUTENANTS!" and nothing will ever top it. On another note, PLEASE MAKE EVERY FACTION'S PRIMARIS LIEUTENANT I AM _BEGGING_ YOU! IT'S BEEN 8 MONTHS!

[@gmofkings]

Do it

[@TimWifi7482]

Wait how does that work? Aren’t there only like 4 primaris lieutenants so that’s 12 models?

[@LordCrate-du8zm]

@ Over the course of Warhammer's history there have been around 15 Primaris Lieutenant figures. The army list would work like such Warlord: Lieutenant Titus x3 Primaris Lieutenant x3 Primaris Lieutenant in Phobos Armor x3 Primaris Lieutenant in Reiver Armor x3 Primaris Lieutenant with Combi-Weapon x3 Apothecary Biologis (not really a lieutenant but does the exact same thing) You can also play Dark Angels and get 3 more models with their exclusive Terminator Lt. You'd have to ditch Titus, but with every unit being a character you're not missing much.

It’s a testament to the state of AdMech that the ForgeWorld list still is cheaper in real money than it. Also I would like to reaffirm to not buy Forge World. Not only will it be trapped in 30k by the end of the edition, but you don’t even need want to make a fun Solar Spearhead list.

[@LordCrate-du8zm]

GW has said Knights and Custodes are the ONLY EXCEPTION to the FW purge. I trust them on that, given how otherwise it would make no sense.

[@thedorklord1029]

@@LordCrate-du8zm The FW purge is in some parts also a Horus Heresy purge, trying to separate models between the game systems. While I'm not sure that they'll remove them fully from 40k, it's likely that they'll be converted to plastic at some point (a lot of HH models have been), so it's probably worth it to wait until the plastic alternatives become available.

[@notoriousblt3085]

I'm a big fan of the meme-list episodes. Silly and breezy for viewers, and the final image composited images of the armies is the perfect cap to each, really drives home the bit visually

[@caboose759]

Slight tweak to Eric's "Fabius Bile" list that I did to crank the noise up. Currently you can run 6+ squads of Noise Marines if you have Lucius be your warlord in CSM. So you make him your warlord, bring six units of 5 Noise Marines for those extra Blastmasters. Then pretty much the exact same thing as Eric's list except you run two units of Raptors with 2 Melta Guns and a plasma pistol.

[@superblobfish2567]

Underappreciated part of this episode is every time Eric slips up and calls a unit a "5 mana" unit. You guys may not solely singleton nearly as much anymore, but your roots never completely leave you

The “Oops All Allies” Imperial Knights build: Questor Forgepact. 2x Corvus Blackstar (180pts x2) (2/2 Retinue allotment) Eversor Assassin (120) (1/2 Character allotment) Grey Knights Terminator (210) (1/1 Requisitioned allotment) Vindicate Assassin (125) (2/2 Character allotment) 2x Skitarii Marshal (35pts x2) Tech-Priest Manipulus (60) Skitarii Rangers (85) 3x Skitarii Vanguard (95pts x3) With 815 points spent on Imperial Agents and 500 points on AdMech, there’s 685 points left for your Imperial Knights. A Knight Castellan with the 30pts Omnissian Champion enhancement and a single Armiger Warglaive spends 680.

[@do-nothingbear9474]

Personally, these are some of my favorite episodes that you guys do. I’m just starting out, and between this and the grading factions videos I love being introduced to the weird underrepresented models in each range. I’ve started collecting orks and I would have never known about how funny a weirdboy leading 20 boyz is without the sniper video. And now I know CSM has some insanely cool looking shooting units in the obliterators.

[@isaacqueen9229]

As someone new to gaurd and a fan of the tempestus scions/aquillons, that scion list is scarily close to the list I intended to run...

[@eaglesridge7896]

Swapping characters for Aquilons, gaunts ghosts, an Ursula Creed command blob, and maybe some Catachan to hold objectives and it would be great TBH

[@malcolmkneller5631]

Haven't played it in the current edition but ran 60 scions/3 command squads with Taurox Prime and a couple Valks in 8 & 9th. Surprisingly fun and not terrible. Trading out Valks and some Taurox Primes for Aquilon and more bodies seems legit.

[@liamboote225]

Honestly love these episodes, and adore the Agents list! To be fair though even just playing the 4 Assassins with their upgrades is a meme on its own, like 500 points just for the 4 Assassins, and you cant even take advantage of the swapping rule because you have them all already.

[@sirbaronvoncountesq.526]

A buddy of mine came up with a meme list for Tyranids using their grotmas detachment. I would recommend it. Neurotyrant with the enhancement to lead warriors, 3 winged Tyranid prime, 36 melee warriors, 33 ranged warriors for 1975 points. Yup 69 warriors.

As was said in the video, it’s hard to make an actual meme list if you’re theming based on Grotmas detachments. Pretty much all of the shown lists are perfectly serviceable, I’d only classify the Custodes and Imperial Agents lists as actual memes, the rest are just themed lists.

This podcast has been one of the main driving forces of both dragging me into the hobby and keeping me there. Just about to finish my first 1k army (Space Wolves. Aren't you so proud Brad?) Absolutely love these meme lists. Was just rewatching the first one before this one went up so it was a funny coincidence! I'd love to see more episodes like these!

[@user-RC85]

I enjoy these types of episode. I'd love to see a series, where you both make a proper list for each grotmas. You can't see the others and only know what's in it at time of recording as it's being read to you.

[@SamuraiMujuru]

As far as meme lists go, I'm working on a list entirely inspired by the Sabaton song Panzer Battalion. It is one Rogal Dorn, nine Leman Russ, and a pair of scout sentinels.

I have a "full" Votann army (at least one "full" squad of everything they make so far - including the Necromunda Squats) and have no plans to ever actually play any of it. I just like the models. but I find these meme list army explanation vids really enjoyable to watch. Look forward to more!

[@BucketPls]

I like these type of videos. I have never played the game yet (working on a 1000 point Ork list still before I try), but hearing list that are especially about trying to get the most guns or hammers or other weird ideas like it just are fun to hear. Like 'What army can have the most units' or 'what army can have the most pistols' and the like

[@kaijukiller3052]

Always love these episodes. Soon as I saw that last list I went into new recruit to try it because I didn't believe it.

The Wager list does really look pleasing with the symmetry. Both on paper and when you have painted minis on a table, even if you aren't deploying them in a mirrored way.

[@johnblack5197]

Eric should be able to get the slaanesh daemons painted easily, prime with wraith bone/white scar or your choice of white primer, and then throw dreadful Visage over the priming layer. If you feel like putting in more effort you just wash with druchii violet and pick out the metallics with your choice of metallic paint.

Exactly 2000pts, 13 models to represent the Thirteen Great Companies of the Space Wolves. It all fits!
