Just a note on Thanquols warpstone token. He wont be getting the +3 or +4 once he uses it as the roll cant be modified. Or have I read it wrong and its just stating the 3d6 cant be modified to reach 13
Great video that gave me some new ideas after suffering a crushing defeat in my first game with the new book. However, I don't think the Crack the Whip interaction will survive a clarification. While the Masterclan ability doesn't specify an unmodified roll, the Crack the Whip ability does say that the +3 modifier applies to the charge roll *for that unit*. It may just be part of the standard template, or it may be intentional language to block this kind of interaction. It's hard to say, however the spirit of the rule suggests that the modifier only applies to the Moulder unit. Copying rolls and using them for other units is a pretty novel ability without much precedent, so we don't have many other established templates to go by. I expect that when the Designer's Commentary comes along, they will shut down this interaction and may possibly errata the Masterclan ability to specify an unmodified roll.
Unfortunately you can’t use the +3 modifier from the Master Moulder for other Skaven units via Masterclan ability. You can use a reroll but you have to pick the charge roll, the +3 modifier is added after. So a charge roll of 6 for Rat Ogors is a 9 via the MM buff but the other Skaven units will only be able to pick the charge roll of 6. Last sentence 1.5.5
I'm a little nervous that I haven't seen anyone talking much about anything skryre related, seems like my favorite clan might be less favorable on the new plan. I was thinking about stuffing a host of warpfire throwers and doom flayers into a 40 model clanrat blob, and then warp grinding said unit in to do a wild clown car strike, but I'm not sure if there's something ruleswise that would prevent that.
So in theory one could also use moulder to add 3 to run on a unit then use a command point to make that unit run roll a 6... Then have the whole army run 9?
No cause for the masterclan rule you need to have a roll. The command ability does add 6 to the move and lets them count as running. So it will not be effected by the moulder rule and will not set the run roll for the masterclan rule.
Greyseer on Bell is a Masterclan Hero too. Great video though dude 👍
Love this content, but I can’t imagine the Rat Ogor combo will last past FAQ, but fingers crossed!
This is the kind of reviews that I want to see. Great job 👏

You are correct! Good pickup

Thanks mate, I'm shit at finding combos so your content is super helpful. Gutted I only own 1 of those models though :(

my professor !! great video!!
Are you still sad about stormfiends even though we have a longer teleport with the bridge and we can field clanrats as Screens?
Do doom wheels do mortals a ton of times as in on the move, the charge, the first pile in and the second pile in?
Thats what I heard. In another TH-cam video. So I believe that it does!
