    Now that we have plastic mechanicum, I'm finally getting into Heresy. Thanks for these videos, they're helping me quite a bit learning about the game.

      I'm printing a couple of armies. They are super handy for planning.

    I still keep coming back to these videos, one of the best HH resources on youtube. Really appreciate you doing this.
    If only GW put as much thought into the rules as you did reviewing them we might still be getting regular hearesy episodes!

      Thanks! I was trying to do 2 a day to get back into the swing after a bad few weeks but I couldnt quite get today’s evening one done. Still happy with the week so far though!

    Nice to hear some good news for a change! I built a trio of rad engine Myrmidons in like 2014 and I'm glad they'll still be irradiating traitors in the future!

    Great to get to a section with so many positives, does make me think again about my list. Great work on powering out the mechanicum book. Can't wait for whatever is next

    Hello, after having viewed many of your HH Videos I want to express my thanks for your work. Being a IF player , I really appreciate your factbased "no nonsense" style ! WHAT I miss though, despite you're calling the channel is called "Hear"esy, is kind of "Hearandsee", which would be even better. I.e. by presenting battle reports where we could see all your great advice put into action on the table.
    Considering the sheer volume of quality advice you pump out here on YT, being easily the best HH channel in terms of advice, I assume you must have lots of battles during the course of a month. So if you could record and loadup maybe 2 or 3 a month , underpinning some of the points you make , many of your subcribers would find that extremely helpful, I assume.
    Keep up the good work !

      @@Hearesy Ahh, I see. Well, then we will have to wait a little while longer. Maybe occasionally a "how to do this and that" with some models on the kitchen table or join8ng forces with another 30k Utuber works well in the US and also here in Europe.... You surely know the saying " a picture is worth a thousand words" 😉. Looking forward to the next Hearesy episodes with high interest, friend.

      Thanks! I probably will when I get round to playing some, I’m planning to do a small Salamanders detachment tovgo with my Iron Hands and they’ll probably be for ZM!

    Any chance of a video to wrap up the Mech army as a whole and maybe contrast with Legion strength?
    As a summary, Mech players seem to have the following pool to choose from as useably decent:
    HQ
    Archmagos Prime/Abeyant
    Magos Dominus/Abeyant
    ELITES
    Tech Priest Auxilia
    Myrmidon Secutors
    TROOPS
    Thallax
    Adsecularis Tech Thralls
    Castellax (if you push hard to make them work)
    FAST ATTACK
    Vorax (3x1 is probably best)
    HEAVY SUPPORT
    Thanatar Cavas/Calix (A calix with paragon precision shots 4+ will laser snipe praetors and I'm here for it)
    Myrmidon Destructors
    Karacnos Assault Tank
    Krios Venator
    Knight Moirax
    Overall, not a bad selection! I think general opinion will soften quite a lot towards Mechanicum once players adjust to the HHv1 units becoming less useful overall.

    Is brutal in the core rules or does it only show up in the legion books? Because if it’s the latter, they might be exclusive to marines-which would suck.

    • @Hearesy
      @Hearesy  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Its in the marine book yeh. Its in mech too, just only on 3? weapons. Its like it was added later as an afterthought, but marines got it on more stuff!

    • @okonkwojones
      @okonkwojones 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Hearesy ok, so it is on some weapons, I missed that. So yeah, hope they expand it to more stuff in an FAQ, because a bunch of these weapons should absolutely have brutal.

    • @Hearesy
      @Hearesy  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yep. That’s the hope! Imagine a *literal titan fist* not being brutal..

    • @okonkwojones
      @okonkwojones 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Hearesy I heard someone doing the math on a warlord firing it’s full payload at a contemptor-a titan isn’t even guaranteed to one shot it! I mean the likelihood of seeing a titan on a table is really low, but if I payed titan money, I’d feel pretty short changed. I’ll try and find the math-but might take me awhile, it was somewhere in a 2 1/2 hour livestream.

    • @Hearesy
      @Hearesy  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yep thats correct, it isnt even close! All of the titan weapons are one giant shot with a blast, not multishot. Theyve always struggled to represent titans on the table. To be fair if they oneshotted everything theyd be no fun either.
      Leave them in AT tbh

    Certainly get the impression that the Martians are kind of weak sisters compared to the Marines. True?

    • @earnestwanderer2471
      @earnestwanderer2471 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also, you seem to suggest that the mechanicum book is a little “sloppy” and may get a lot of updates.

    • @Hearesy
      @Hearesy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Who knows - speculation on my part, wishful thinking maybez Its certainly a weaker book than marines, but still good and does some powerful stuff in terms of killing power armour things!

  • @Bigjonmetal
    @Bigjonmetal 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's definitely frustrating no mechanicum weapons really got brutal for the most part. The non mechanicum knights melee weapons are a joke now.
