Fantastic work - thanks for the insights
Hey kannst du ein neues video machen zu Annihilators 😅
Finally somebody admitting that they predicted Kruleboyz wrong. Everyone who doesn‘t play them were super hyped about the changes, but are super silent about what happend to KBs. They are not good atm and are not fun to play. I won our AoS league last season with KBs and in 4th I won 1 out of 5 games so far. Every spell, every ability got nerfed or taken away (no one talks about the loss of the Kruleboyz Waaagh, which was essential to winning your game). I love my KB army and will play them from time to time, but luckily I got my ScE which look very solid atm. I also just finished the legendary dragon army, but haven‘t played a single game yet. PS: don‘t get my wrong some changes are cool and some warscrolls are really fun now (Killaboss on Vulcha, Killbow etc.).
Why are palladors all the hype? They are in each list shown?
@@geoffreyvt very very fast, punchy, durable, cost effective 14" power through to safety after a 20" run and charge
@@TheStormkeep Nice to hear! Always wanted to try them out in 3rd because I love the models. But they were just not good enough to justify them in my lists. Time to get the shock-axes out 😁
"They're back; in pog form"😂
Thanks for including at least one non legends list.
✌️
The core rules of 4th are good. List building and manifestations are complete disasters that need from-the-foundations reworks, which unfortunately is unlikely to be in the cards. They need to do some big band-aiding fast, though, because they are such big misses that they have the potential to sour people on the entire edition, which would be a disaster for the future of AOS.
Wait sorry did i hear summoning Endless Spells in your oppents turn?? How does that work if its only your hero phase?
@@MultiDownforce you can use the Magical Intervention command to cast spells in your opponents turn!
@TheStormkeep Thanks mate I didn't even think about that command! Congratulations on the little one. I hope everything went well and continues to do so 😀
@@MultiDownforce Thank you!
Not sure if it's been mentioned but the first honorable mention had a shade of gold you were unsure about. It looks like rattle can retributor armor. It comes out almost as a matte and I personally disliked the look when I found out it was not the same shade as the paint pot version 😢
I'm not sold on Praetors personally. My gryphounds or prosecutors are usually dying so quickly that Envoy of the Heavens on a Vexilor is plenty. and if opponent ignores them, I'm setup for multiple battle tactics. if I wasnt taking the Vexilor though, I'd absolutely Stan the Praetors
Great video guys, enjoyable and insightful as always. More videos please 😊
so sad domitan's stormcoven is pure Legends I think they are A/S tier unit and theyre dope models :'[
At least they're great proxies for Knight-Arcanums! They look like a prototype for Thunderstrike Evocators...
I don’t know how to have an opinion about manifestations cos seraphon success is now tied to what happens to manifeststions. I was fine paying for gravetide and shackles in 3rd and now my summoning and MW are in the tank and they fill the gap. Especially since they don’t have sub-100 point units anymore.
1:56:15 Templar list 2:06:08 Double Cavalry list 2:14:01 Anti-Magic list 2:16:25 Sigmar's Fist list (+Mrigank mentions the gist of his current list which he didn't submit for the stream) Great discussion, watch the whole thing for sure (I did), just noting these mostly for easy reference for myself.
Thanks Jayce! I'll add these to the show notes I usually wait until the streams finish processing - you've saved me some time :)
Because my friends used to talk about Warhammer at work 24/7, i used to mock them by chanting "WaRhAmMeR WaRhAmMer WaRhAmMeR WaRhAmMeR" So my list is annihilators, Bastion, and Liberators. Aka warhammers. Warhammers. Warhammers. Warhammers. Maybe someday Ill play competetive and have to buy real units, but its an expensive way to troll lol
Good talk, I would spend less time on discussing legend units in future talks.
We are keenly aware that a lot of people are playing without Legends units... but there are also a lot of Stormcast players with those units that want to talk about them while they're still legal. Tough to find the right balance! When we release a tier list, we will also release a legend-less tier list
I think making them have a Command Point cost for each Endless Spell would do it - you could tailor it to each Endless Spell via it's summoning spell, so Purple Sun could be 2, and then something like the Dais would be 1.
That's a very interesting idea! Weaker spells could even cost 0
I think the endlesss groups need more balanced. Morbid has 3 predator spells where others have 1
Hey congrats Paul !!! Much happiness to your family :)
Thank you!
Looks like Madame will be happy, I just found the motivation to do 2:28:10 of households tasks, amazing husband that I am 😊 Thanks guys. You make dishes and laundry almost barable :D
Kroxigor going from 4 wounds to 6 and dracoths going from 6 to 5 is a cruel twist of fate
Sylvaneth have a 12 inch bubble of reducing ward on the warsong
Direwolves have a 5+
Dracoths are strange. If you break down the index it starts to feel like half the army is designed around the quicksilver draught chain fight interaction working the way it used to, if it still does. Dracoths then look pretty insane with cele on drac bringing them into fight first, lightning echelon on their turn, counter-charge, power through, general's bodyguard, heaven-sent, and you can see why they nerfed them. QSD also makes all the foot heroes and foot infantry suddenly playable with general's bodyguard, terminos, foot celestant, knight-questor, protectors, rets, reclusians, reinforced praetors, even grandhammers.
@@rotm4447 Yeah but similar to varanguard dracoths became even more glasscannon. Their damage is ok, but with their cost to wound ratio, they are so fragile.
@@nicolaszhang2174 yeah, they do have envoy and heaven sent now though. If they had left them the same they would be so so much more powerful than 3rd. They look bad compared to chaos knights and palladors, maybe they think lightning echelon is just so good, maybe they intended draught to work and they think that's just so crazy good.
2,5 hours?! Those are rookie numbers!
We are slowing down in our old age 😅
Chuffed this has been released! Thanks! Keep up the good work 👍
The max times per spell would be a good fix. Make the sun a real discussion, when are the player gonna bring it out...
Nerfing longstrikes over season rules would be so dumb. Obviously shooting unit doing 60% more damage is broken, so don't write it in the first place. If there's a longstrike problem there's about 6 other units breaking internal balance just as much. Maybe don't give vanguard speed, and the shooting, and the best cav unit, and the best chamber rule, and the best formation, and make everything else move at troll speed. Like two good units can then take vanguard at all, and they're also wizards which are the best thing in the game. I wonder why our list all look the same.
Agreed, if there is a problem here (and I'm not convinced there is yet) then the right solution is to nerf Priority Target rather than directly hitting Longstrikes
@@TheStormkeep Bownoth's get buffed similarly, in that the first 6 are an auto-take for Sylvaneth because of it.
Hypothetically you can use palladors to see how overpriced things are, for instance 150 reclusians looks reasonable or actually cheap when we first saw it. Except 9 of them are less wounds than 6 palladors, about the same damage, and nearly 4 times slower. How many would you need to be able to bring to actually take them instead competitively. 12 would price them at 120-110. Would you take 15 retributors over 6 palladors at 150 points? I wonder if Rockguts are actually overpowered or if that's just the power level slow infantry need to be before people actually start playing them as anything but screens. They almost doubled chaos warrior damage and they're just getting on the table now sometimes. Vanquishers looked so crazy a month ago and now you end up putting 5 of them in the list.
Yep. The only reason the season rules on shooting units isn't getting talked about more is because manifestations are even worse. It's so stupid and 100% needs to be FAQed to only work on melee. My Skyfires will weep along with Longstrikes, but it's for the good of the game.
Longstrikes should not go down in points. You're forgetting retreat/run/charge/shoot. Teleports. Priority
They definitely feel worth their current points! The internal balance issue lies with the cost of our other shooting options
Have been waiting for it for so long now, and you didn't dissapoint! Thank you as always, your insight into the game is always so valuable!
Sorry we've been silent for the past month! More content coming soon
I think I’d keep the manifestation spam possible, but add increasing restrictions. Like, I LOVE that endless spells are finally usable and are getting good use. I want to see them have a real use for once! However, the current “free” spam is just too much. I’d posit that the manifestation stuff gets the “warp lightning cannon” treatment. You can get an amazing amount of value out of them, but the more you push for that value, the greater the risk to yourself! I’d suggest making the first endless spell cast per phase “free”, with no penalties. The second manifestation cast per phase is at a -1 and d3+x unmitigatable mortal wounds (X=the number of previous cast manifestations that phase). The third cast would be -2 and d3+x unmitigatable mortals, etc… This would allow endless spam at a price BUT also create a reason to not try casting a manifestation since it’s per “phase” and not bound to “friendly” casts, meaning on my turn, if I cast 2 manifestations, my opponent would get the natural -1 cast, then -2 cast because of prior manifestations AND take d3+x damage. Personally, I love the current system, it just needs a cost for the spam imo.
Way to complicated I think
Yes, manifestations are SO COOL! One of the coolest things about AOS. But they are definitely too easy to use for how impactful they are right now... something's gotta give. I like your idea of adding some risk to summoning them. It's in a similar space to my idea of the summoner taking mortal wounds when the manifestation is banished/destroyed
just make them cost points.
@@lsid4747 they're basically units you add to your army every turn, so it's not crazy to think they should cost points
@@lsid4747 I think the problem with “points” is that we already had that and they ranged from completely unusably awful (99% of the time) to completely broken. Also, being a “warscroll” available to every army makes it nearly impossible to balance, which is what creates the completely useless/completely OP issue in the first place. It’s why they almost never saw play at all. Making them free at least makes them usable. Does it balance them particularly well? Probably not, but it at least makes them usable. The issue right now, from what I’ve seen/heard isn’t that they need to require points, it’s that the “spam” is too free. I’d much rather see some form of tax on “spam” rather than going back to a system that has already proven to be bad (costing points) for the past 5 years since they came out.
great show as always fellas!

Are Dracothian Guard worth taking as a unit of 2? Or do you just have to reinforce them? Because I know Stormdrakes are pricy, but amy reinforced Dracothian Guard are even more expensive.
At 2:26:26 they say that lances on Stormdrakes are better. Why are they better? They have only 1 more rend on the charge, otherwise the damage is the same and in the second round of combat without charge they significantly fall off.
Great video.
Great video, thank you.
Stormkeep: Liberators must be cheaper than vanquishers to be good. GW: proceed to increase vanquishers' cost. Stormkeep: :O
@@ArmaGGon wouldn't be the first time haha
Guys, we need a list building video. This is edition is wild right now.
List building for Stormcast feels pretty rough right now. Probably worse than it has ever been! The also game feels incredibly imbalanced right now, and it seems like there is going to be an errata/update to resolve things soon. The bigger problem is that the Battletome is coming in September (probably) and it will throw everything out the window. Our list videos are a lot so it doesn't seem worth the time when the video will only be relevant for a month :/ We will definitely make a list video after the battletome is released! I think we will discuss index list building with our next livestream in August
@@TheStormkeep I makes total sense. I understand the pain and couldn't agree more. There is a lot of balance issues for sure. Gloomspite Gitz is crazy right now. A 20 man squig herd throws 80+ attacks with 3+ 3+ 1R 1D on the charge for around the points of a reinforced Vindictor squad.
Thank you for helping clarify some of the confusing parts
Guys palladors with javelin shoot on enemy when they charged, not when they got charged!:)
@@tizianomerello6530 yup we noticed that after the stream, seems like we misread it initially
@@TheStormkeep anyway they seems very strong, you move, shoot, charge and after charge you shoot again😀
QQ where in the core rules can I find the rules that prevents followup fights which would prevent e.g. a Knight Questor or the Lord Terminos from popping the Quicksilver Draught and then point on Soulsworn or Reclusians from fighting immediately, and then fight with my first real unit (my turn)?
@@Peter.B.S after this stream we did some reading into it further, and we found out this interaction does work... but only if specific conditions are met. Check the StormFAQ channel on our discord server for details!
Great review thanks ! Two remarks : you view every "good" unit as somewhat overcosted, and the few "great/amazing" ones as perfectly costed ^^ I dont recall you guys ever being that biased, so I wonder if its not just that everything is slightly more expensive in the game, or maybe comparing to the legends stuff is what gives you this slightly pessimistic perspective. Also, "like" every third word makes for a very hard listening experience, and at times makes it even outright unpleasant 😢 maybe its because im not a native english speaker though and im not used to "real life" american english, but iv seen other people complain on that topic.
@@plazma5343 sometimes the cost of a unit can completely determine their viability! Units that are difficult to use AND expensive tend to perform poorly even if they have powerful attacks/effects
Hi. I really like your content. It's so helpful for playing SCE. Will there be new tier-list video soon? Imo it's very hard to build a good list for 4th edition. Thx and greeting from Germany
We are working on a large review of the Stormcast Faction pack!
I would like to see a lore video--give it a shot!
Thanks for the video, Paul!
What if vigilors had shoot in combat, at a minimum? 🤔
Vigilors just look fine to me, they have a 3+ save now like all our other dudes which they didn't in 3rd. I even like them in 10s, that's 42 attacks half of which will probably be hittings on 2s. Its actually really efficient combined damage and they're still tanky. They're like Judis with slightly less ranged, for a buff, and much better melee. Like they can actually kill secondary targets in melee.
I'm gonna comment on this repeated use of "If you're using legends" throughout. No one 'isnt' going to be using the legends stuff, it's official rules and theres nothing in the book preventing their use as well as there being nothing that says they need a special case to include them in all forms of play. If you 'arent using legends' you're willfully ignoring like a solid 40% of our official ruleset for no reason. People will stop using them when their rules go away next summer. tl;dr people have no choice when it comes to their use until next summer. Theres a lot of powerful combos there that if you ignore, you lose, and if you choose not to play against someone using them, well, you lose again.
When u make the tier pls do it with the non legends unit. Thanks and good video :)
Thank you! When we release our Stormcast Index Review there will be a tier list with all our units, and a tier list without the Legends units being considered.
Seraphon!! I beg you 😂
2:33 : "Honor Guard" ? what is this ?
It's the seasonal special rule found in the Generals Handbook. After deployment you can pick a unit in your general's regiment and give them a special bonus
1:08:20 : what is that "classic 12 inch drop, hope to get a double and then move up" ?
32 :34 : what is that trick about redeploy ?
