Man, I really hope they re-examine Greater Daemon stat profiles. It's a bit ridiculous that Keepers are base S6 and even LoC's are only S6 when their biceps are literally larger than a Space Marine's torso. But other than that, it sorta reinforces how much they struggle against armour. It's weird to me that we literally have Space Marine's running around in T6 armour nowadays when Bletters are still what, S5? It feels like they basically just cut n pasted their stats from 9th to 10th without really thinking things through. Good game though, pretty back and forth I thought.

The comment you made about melta is exactly how I feel, there needs to be a change to the way they work to make them good again. Double strength in half range rather than the extra damage would work, since even the strongest melta weapons are only 24 inch range, they still need to be danger close to be fully effective. An anti-tank gun that wounds vehicles on a 5+ is silly. OR just give them anti-tank 3+ or something...

I could see it having been a draw. If the karskin had gone for the horrors at the baneblade, with some shooting and maybe a charge there is a very good chance they could have widdled them down so Guards would have hold that objective, and shooting the chariot off the middle one was very likely. Then they would have had one point each. At the very least it had been worth a shot to attempt it.

Really looking forward to this, a really great narrative idea on a great board. Just a note though, titanic units can no longer overwatch, and even if they could, "born soldiers" doesn't work in your opponent's turn as "remain stationary" is actually a type of move, believe it or not, and you don't move in your opponent's turn! Simple, not simplified right? More importantly, I hope Stylus doesn't make a living as a poet? :P

Two gorgeous armies, especially the Guard. Need more Guard replays, they have such lovely models and interesting rules with the Orders. (spoilers) Shame they lost, but then, it's a Warhammer 40k game. The shooty army takes off 10-30% of the melee army, then the melee army touches them and the ranged army evaporates. Got to love that a group of infantry can lock down a massive 480-point key setpiece unit and make it largely irrelevant for the entire game; better than it used to be, since it's still allowed to fire at a penalty, but still just a massive disparity in value.

..Are you watching the right video? it was not only locked up by two 130 horror units and a 75pts hero, hardly nothing but ALSO continued to fire the whole game shot at the whole open coverless board as the daemons had no hope of actually killing it and the only downside is -1 to hit which doesn't even matter when you're hoping for 6's to hit with the bullshit autowound which Guard (the shooting gunline who dont want to move) receive for the high price of uh....standing still. If this wasn't Narriative the daemons would just be fish in a barrel I get it, I played Dawn of war but I'll never grasp Baneblade fanboys who always want more buffs for this specific tank, for once it's actually decent in 10th and you still cry

@@krilc I was kinda talking about the guard as a whole seemed to miss way more than I expected. Like when 1/3 of Sultans shooting units are needed to kill 3-6 plague-bearers, a Kasarkin squad kills like 2 plague-bearers are point blank with the standing still and first/second rank fire, or when the baneblade’s main gun gets 15 shots and gets 2 wounds. I don’t know shit about meta, I’m just commenting on what I saw watching this. What I saw was Sultan getting understandably upset that 5+ units worth of shooting couldn’t do jack shit to a basic unit

@@LichLordKrull what do the guard have going for them? They’re shooting is just OK, and there Maeleigh is very substandard. Hitting on fours across the entire army is not consistent. I understand that they have orders, but the orders aren’t really the strongest. The issue is, even if they get the take aim order, they will still be hitting on threes. Which, is good if they had stronger weapons. They’re still wounding on fives and or sixes, and the AP isn’t good. I would understand the hitting on fours base, if their weapons were stronger.
