Yes, this is true, that's why they are better now. They do have their place, but as a specialist? That's the hard p[art. Good thing Rebs have Cheap troops. Thanks Bri!
Woo! Go Rebs! For my money the stand-outs in the Rebs list are the Grogans, Alpha Simians and Teratons. Lots of cheap but still somewhat useful Troop options make me think you want to stack up on as many of the specialists as you can. I do like the new Energy Shield now that it no longer has a chance to fail, at least you don't have a chance to lose the points spent in the first turn. The Teraton teleport is always good, range 3 can get you to some unexpected places and catch your opponent out.
All great units, but all of them need a troop tax. The nice thing about the Rebs are they have very cheap troops. I went with some new stuff because I don’t want to make the same list from the past seasons. 😁
@@familyofgamers777 yeap, those cheap troop options are great, the basic reb trooper always seem to pull off the impossible at least once a game so they are my preferred tax.
@@familyofgamers777 I would love to see more of them. Rather new to it so finding some of the models has been hard. I have watched every one of your videos in the last week. I looked up the old ones so I am hoping your right and they are getting new models. The ones they have put out recently have been amazing.
I have most of the models, but now that we have 3D printers, I print up exactly what I need. I do love to buy the models from Mantic. Since they are not on the site, that may a good sign that new models are on the way. Thanks for watching the past videos, hope they help. We are here for ya, hope to meet in person and roll dice together!
I’m curious if your opinions on Enforcer Peacekeepers have changed at all given Coach’s call out of how tough Forge Guard are to get through. During the Enforcer discussion there was a lot of talk about the Peacekeepers being underpowered, but I don’t know if that factored in the reduced amount of AP in 3rd edition.
No, that was all factored in. The rant was all about 3.0. The problem wasn’t the Peacekeepers being tough, my issue is that the PC are the Elite of the elite, and GCPS have a better fight stat. How can a regular rank and flank human have a better fight stat than elite troopers. (The new models, the Riot troopers fight on a 4+, and the PK and be and Veterans both fight on 5+) They do have armor and 4+ shoot, but I think they are a little over priced now. Don’t get me started on the removal of Tag. Thanks Matt!
@@familyofgamers777 Fair enough, I agree the poor fight stats for Enforcers as a whole don’t make sense with the fluff. The 6+ on Pathfinders is especially egregious, and the removal of Tag does hurt. I also think the riot troopers are way too good at fighting, they should probably be toned down. It seems like they want Enforcers to be a shooty faction. A 4+ on an Enforcer operative is similar mathematically to a GCPS Veteran’s 5+ weight of fire 1, but Peacekeepers get 4+ weight of fire 1 and the extra armor. I wonder if leaning into 4+ weight of fire 1 and other special weapons should be seen as the “default” enforcer picks, with little reason to take a standard Enforcer with a rifle.
@@mattbrown5234 I agree, but the enforcers are more expensive than the GCPS, for what they bring. I know Armor is a good thing, and points should go up, but get them in combat and they are locked down. Especially the afore mentioned 4+ fights (Or 3+) Don't get me started on the Pathfinder 6+,fight!
Another fun note on the Survey Drone, it doesn't have beast ;)

Yes, go Rebs. Go away! Go fast! Go far!
Nope
Yep!!!
Woo! Go Rebs!

Cheap troops = lots of specialists!
Leaves from the vine, falling so slow...
😂
Woo! Go Rebs!
Watch your face dude!
Oh, 2 minutes in and already writing a comment :-) thanks for the shout out Jack!
Shouting out for our #1 fan!
Do they even have models? Checking the website they have very little under their section.
That’s what we were saying. That may actually be good news for us. Hopefully a revamp of the Rebs, it’s about time.

Jack can't make TikTok references and then claim old age when he doesn't get someone else's...
That is the Beauty of Jack. The wordsmith at his best.
