The reinforcement stratagem states a restriction saying “you cannot bring back character models *attached* to units.” Which I think rules intended you cannot bring back character models and rules as written will leave a sour impression on your opponent. Could probably use a rules clarification if it were the case tho.

@@steelxspider5274 true it’s all about the game vibe the only counterpoint I got is that sly marbro is a single unit that can’t be attached to or lead any units also might be kind of a waste since he’s 65 points and you can bring back 180 points worth of sentinels for 2 command points overal just a fun detail

@@steelxspider5274 I think they intended to point out that leaders won't come back with the squad, which would have been op, but scion command squad also have regiment and can be brought back. Even regimental attaches and ogryn bodyguard with the current writing of the rule. But we have to choose between the scion squad and the command squad.

I got 27” of movement out of him in one player turn. Marbo moved, survived overwatch, shot back and moved again, then shot in the shooting phase and moved again.

You do have to be very clever to make Sly Marbo work. He is a bit expensive for what he does but, I just thought of something. Sly Marbo can move when he Overwatches. Position Sly Marbo well, provoke the enemy to move up, Overwatch with him to move him to a much more protected position where he can't get blown off the table. Plus if he gets more shooting in the opponent's Shooting Phase, that isn't affected by the Overwatch penalty. I think it would need a very specific situation to work well, but it's potentially devastating to an opponent (or keeps Sly Marbo safe because of the threat of just moving him out of the way!)

Sylvester Stallone was also called Sly Stallone.. Marbo is an anagram of Rambo, who was played by Sly Stallone. Thanks for the covering Sly.

I had a thought listening to the video. Tuck ol' Sly here near Gaunt's Ghosts. Use Bragg and Larkin to draw in a unit that forgot about Marbo so he can not only get his shot in but then use his move to get him into melee. Then pounce the Ghosts in to join the fray. Maybe there's something here.

To add to the references: Marbo is an acronym for Rambo, And the fly trap plant is definitely a reference to the man eater plant in “little shop of horrors”

Sly is awesome. I absolutely love running him. He's great for throwing grenades, and general shenanigans. Run him near to high value units so they take fire and he gets a chance to shoot more. Also with him benefiting from the reinforcements strat and fields of fire make him that much more flexible.

Shoot from chimera jump out, then fire, move and get back in chimera. It's a pricy combo imo.

If you are taking the chimera anyway for kasrkin etc sly can shoot, embark and then the chimera can shoot his ripper pistol again

I have ran him a couple times in 10th. I did run him a lot more in older editions. He used to be great for a surprise attack in an enemy soft point that made a difference. Now he is much more niche use but still fun and great for narrative especially when running Catachans.

Great video and I agree with the general idea, disrupt the enemy, snipe some characters, have fun. I think a list built around Sly Marbo would be the most fun. There were a few things you missed with his tech that I haven't seen anyone do but you did scratch the surface. You mentioned Move Move Move. - Have an Officer (probably Lord Solar unless you know how to farm with Ursula) with the command squad for 24" Order range, they Order Marbo every turn "MMM" - Orders affect until the start of your next command phase so he now has a 9" move for all intents and purposes - Be willing to spend all your CP on him - He runs up 9" throws grenades, shoots, runs away 9" - The enemy gets near him, overwatch (mentioned by other commenters good job) moves 9" - Also he counts as an Astra Militarum Model within 3" so an enemy gets near him and shoots him, if he survives then shoot again and move 9" - Move 9" forward, shoot a chaff unit, move another 9" forward and charge an enemy character, potentially get overwatch'd and if survive that shoot again, otherwise die at any point during the mission, reinforcement strategem - I believe current rules FAQ allow deeps trike and infiltrate anytime a model is setup so even with reinforcements drop him in anywhere. (correct me if wrong) - Once he's super far back behind enemy lines drop him in with Guan'ts Ghosts for an Order, maybe take cover for an extra pip of save (even in melee), then shoot him, move him, and charge him into some backfield holders or characters. Along with the Ghosts for some serious punch up, seriously reminds me of Dutch's Squad with Marbo being Dutch

Sly Marbo So did a deep dive tonight into Epic Hero Sly Marbo 65 points His Two Rules Like Fighting a Shadow Each time this model has shot, if it is not within Engagement Range of any enemy units, it can make a Normal move as if it were your Movement phase. If it does, until the end of the turn, this model is not eligible to declare a charge. One-man Army Each time an enemy unit targets a friendly Astra Militarum unit within 3" of this model with ranged attacks, after that enemy unit has finished making its attacks, this model can shoot as if it were your Shooting phase. Keywords Character Epic Hero Faction: Astra Militarum Grenades Imperium Infantry Regiment Sly Marbo Rules: InfiltratorsStealthLone OperativeAnti- infantry 2+PrecisionPistol Weapon Ripper Pistol 12" A 3 Hit 2+ S 5 AP -1 D 2 Anti-Infantry 2+, Pistol, Precision Plus Lethal vs Infantry due to Regiment key word Regiment key word means he can get orders Move Move Move 9" Move And now for something special... He can use Like fighting a shadow when he shoots on Overwatch.... Against a charging enemy unit....after they role for charge....but before they move... Note they do not have to be charging Sly for him to Overwatch... You can run away if being charge Simple and causes a failed charge Sly can run in front of the charge possibly blocking the charge if he wasn't the intended target If he was then preventing a long charge maybe onto an objective Sly could keep charges in charge range but move 9" to a different area redirecting the charging models away from there intended destination Sly could even move 9" to a friendly close combat unit like a Warglaive. Then spend 1CP to use Heroic intervention for the Warglaive to charge the target Sly could do other precision moving to bring or block other units into the combat Yep Also good at blocking deep striking great Daemons and anything else with a big base that is charging Shoot and then run right up to 1.1 inch of the daemon
