That opening cinematic is so on point. "We regret nothing." And they really don't, and see the Craftworld Eldar as weak for pulling back from the precipice. After all, Slaanesh is just another obstacle for them to overcome and thus prove their superiority over each other (no other race's opinion matters of course). Love the little touches that show how miserable everything is.
It sets the scene really well, for sure :P
On the chair in the lore blurb: It is an actual chair with eyes. When the Drukhari are done with their playthings they reshape them into immortal sentient furniture to suffer for all eternity.
It is funny that most Warhammer lore has toned down the over the top stupid edgy shit and horro over the decades, except for Dark Elves, which are just moronically edgy losers without end
@@Sharkdude3000 Dark Elves are reasonable and mature compared to Drukhari/Dark Eldar.
@@Sharkdude3000 I wouldn't call them losers... they actually get away with most of the things they do, to the point that terra even sought out haemonculi to repair the golden throne and promised them a free raiding area in the imperium to compensate. Even if you shoot them chances are a haemonculus already has one of their fingers ready to make a new body for them back in commorragh. in a setting filled with morally grey areas like the imperium killing thousands to save millions and people being corrupted by the warp with good intentions, I actually find it refreshing to see a group that doesn't try to hide how much of a monster they are, in fact they revel in it. chaos is insanity, orks and tyranids are acting out of instinct, necrons are trying to reclaim their empire, the imperium, tau, and eldar do horrible things to keep their people alive. But the dark eldar? they're simply too busy having fun chasing that next high to care anymore. they are bdsm space pirates high on warp dust and they know it.
@@ridleydidnothingwrong and their misbegotten souls careen squealing to She Who Thirsts the moment they die. And if they havent made very, very expensive pact with a Haemonculus... well yeah, thats literally the lifetime of karma biting them in the ass.
"We're playing space jerks."
As you correctly pointed out, that doesn't narrow it by much xD
I like that you read the flavortext. It adds a lot to the game imo
I love how they keep adding to the game. I always enjoy comming back to it aswell and watching you do the same.
These guys are hard to use in the beginning, but once you get them going with transports etc they are really fun.
42:13 - yes. Stack the transports around a hex, summon the webway gate, and then use a webway or summon another in a different area, these transports will flicker out of B webway and take up a hex.
Raiders can heal units inside but you need the tech for it. Venoms take up 1 slot; Raiders take up 3 slots for infantry.
I saw drukhari on the thumbnail and i was like "😮" yeah I'm stoked the dark eldar are being added to gladius!
Incredibly well thought out decisions, big fan of this series already!
gladius is an awesome game. glad you still play it once in a while
I always love returning to it. It's my comfort food, honestly :)
I never ever read any of that flavour text, but I love listening to you reading it to us 😅
By far the best at this kind of content. Cheers.
I knew our favourite murderhobo drug addicted space elves would be next. Maybe next time we'll get the Genestealer Cults.
Also, they DO have some armor piercing early on with the Reavers. Not the best, but better than nothing.
Drukhari when coming to a planet: We're here for a fun time not a long time
Wyches are all right. They don't survive much but Wracks are very resilient.
my fav faction!
Never knew those nasty Umbra creatures are classified as flyers.
In the few games I've tried with the Drukhari (I'm actually pretty new to the game, only about a week in, played a couple games with Eldari as my starter faction before the DLC hit) I found it pretty great opening to push for your Dark Foundry and get a couple Venom craft out asap to supplement your two starter infantry. Having them act as fire support craft and as an HP buffer for them gives them great longevity for clearing the wildlife, and I had the two starters surviving all the way up to the late game. The Haywire grenade upgrade helps keep them relevant, even if it has the ten turn cooldown. Keep them in their venom and drop them in to occasionally hit a vehicle or finish off a building.
I largely ignored Wyches in my last game, only building two of them to forward the quest (I had just forgot to turn it off, didn't mean to play with it active) so only had the two before phasing them out for Incubi and pushing up to an Incubi, Tantalus, Scourge comp.
Honestly the conventional building division between vehicles, infantry and flyers doesn't make as much sense as an alternative for Drukhari. For the most part, they are split into 3 subfactions: Hamonculus Covens, Kabals and Wych Cults. A building for each of those would imho be more thematic.
Those subfactions manifest themselves mostly in the Dark City. During realspace raids, all of them work in unison because they need to bring slaves to torture if they don't want their souls being eaten by Slaanesh.
One thing I would suggest checking is do your kabalites and wyches and so on having the same trait as regular eldar infantry - that is, they can shoot *then* move? Would've let you get a couple of hits in against the umbra in relative security. No idea if they do or don't, but since they both like that hit and run life it's definitely worth a look.
I think you shoot then move. If you move, shoot, you cannot fleet back. Fleet in this game is 1.0 MOV max which is a bummer. Drukhari should be able to hit hard then run fast away.
Drukhari don't have that. Drukhari's hit and run tactics work around getting lot of bonuses when off-loading from vehicles.
@@zelurstak From Raiders, yes. Raiders tend to support troops well with healing, bonuses in offloading, and adding a Haemonculi with strong powers rounds out a strike force. The fleet aspect of moving and shooting or shooting and moving comes from the tabletop game.
@@nosywendigo592 Not just Raiders. Every transport vehicle gives you those bonuses if you've researched them. Even the tier 1 venom. But Drukhari can't shoot and then move.
Thanks for the vid
The Dark Eldar honestly blow in this game. For me to say that is insane. I love them on the table top and almost any other game they are playable, but here they are just so weak. They make the Eldar seem like Space Marines by comparison
iirc the narrator in Dawn of War Soulstorm pronounced it "Commo-RAH" with the stress on the final syllable
Of course this is also the game where a guy randomly lost like 100 baneblades so its canonicity is...questionable
Awesome. A new 40k campaign. Gogogogo....
Something just occured to me - are the Umbra aliens in this game based on the artefacts from the Astartes fan animation?
*Asdrubael Vect approves*
*Lilith Hesperax laughs maniacally* "Souls! Bring us souls, Janet daughter of the Commorites!"
I'm going to watch this playlist!
Hey Janet, I'm guys, on occasion.
You can milk a pig...
If you don't think there's a meaningful difference between a space pig and a space cow then you must be space crazy
I wish they would do an army painter instead of continuing to add more and more factions. To me the eldar don't really even fit the original campaign.
I would happily pay $20 for an army painter and expanded campaign start options for more open gameplay.
I would say the drukhari arent as bad vs armor in the early game, having haywire grens and raevers at tier 2 as anti armor options.
But they are certainly missing a unit with scout to not get overwatch baited to easily
@@tmirred1945 Apparently, that's what the venoms are supposed to be for. They have a bunch of damage reduction traits, that lets them survive overwatch attacks. (at least they are far better at it than your hyper-flimsy infantry...)
Yes they are to tank (at least early game) overwatch, but they are still missing an actual unit with [Scout] to gauge enemy forces hiding behind hills and in coverrich areas, even if their cheaper planes help with that.
@@tmirred1945Maybe we'll get something like that in the next unit DLC. Or some infiltrator, like Mandrakes
also a terrain clearer would be nice^^ I could have seen the reavers to get [scout] but sadly no
Answer to your Question: "I never read the popups, because you are doing it for so long."
Now I watch your Vid and the Download is in the Background. 1st learn from you, later try to do it better. hrhrhr 😜
"Aeldari we are no more, today we are Drukhari."
What a load of bullshit. The Dark Eldar see themselves as the true inheritors of the Eldar race. They're the true kin, the true eldar, aeldari whatever. They would never call themselves Drukhari, 'Fallen Ones', or whatever that nonsense Drew Carrie name means.
I pronounce Commoragh the same way you do, but only because every time I see it I hear 'Don't, stop, thinkin' about Commoragh' in my head. That and pronouncing the G feels very inelegant which isn't very eldar, dark or otherwise.
"transhumans"
Space marines is definitely the best faction. I really enjoy the game but the only other fun faction really is necrons, the others are kinda boring and poorly designed to me
