I picked the DoK for my army because I've always been fascinated with Greek mythology and ngl, I took one look at Morathi's snake form and I was sold. My husband is very annoyed because, with just a few strategic purchases, his Stormcast Eternals have yet to come close to beating my Daughters! Dumb luck and a love of Greek mythology from my days living in Korinthos nabbed me one of the most OP units in the all of AoS!
Once again, this is the best AoS series on TH-cam. Also, super ASMR-friendly, insightful, humorous (but not in a pompous/dickish way like at least one popular AoS content creator that comes to mind), and always positive when due.
Absolutely fantastic, these are some of my favourite videos on TH-cam and I’m glad you’ve released another one. About to watch now, hope all’s well with you HeyWoah and that you’re safe and healthy in these trying times
Doomfires aren't exactly worth forgetting just because they feel out of place. Running a single reinforced unit *does* give you a 20 wound, fast paced, table-clogging spell slinger. Need to control an endless spell far upfield? They're your guys. They also have almost equal melee and ranged prowess (not high but not forgettable) so if you really need to finish off a unit when a squishy battle line unit dies before finishing it off, they can do more than *just* sling those spells. They aren't even terribly priced for a cavalry caster unit... if they could bring a spell lore of your choice they'd probably be busted.
That's the crazy thing about DoK. Doomfire warlocks by any metric are actually Good, and in any other army they'd be played. I guess the water level in dok is just high enough that I never see them on the table.
@@HeyWoah I'm finally starting my daughters after ages of wanting to (just always felt too expensive financially compared to other armies I liked but found a great deal on a few things). I'm definitely planning to run a unit so I can throw endless spells around up the table.
Thank you cause almost everyone assumes if you're with the Champions of Order you're automatically that white knight goody-two shoes type character when that's not the case. Case in point the Daughters of Khaine they're a very brutal, very sadistic anti-heroine Dark Aelf faction who on more then one occasion have stepped into the role of anti-villains
Yes! Oh my god, yes! I've watched through the other videos in this series a few times each, I really like them. This is great! Please, if you ever rummage for other video ideas, do the other factions in AoS. They're really great and the best of their kind on TH-cam! :D
Good guide. We need more of these and maybe some updates to existing videos. I really seem to struggle to find a place that fleshes out the playstyles of an army in a brief explanation.
As always an amusing, yet concise analysis of the army; thank you so much for making these videos :) I'd hoped for another narrative intro in the propaganda segment, as you'd done previously for the Mawtribes video, but I'm guessing you decided not to include it this time round in favour of the short summary of the Broken Realms instead (?)
@@HeyWoah Okay, understood. Well, even if they're discontinued for the Faction Focus, that mixed reaction does nonetheless prove the existence of a positive, receptive segment of your audience for the narrative stories, so if you ever feel like writing further narratives for separate videos then I'm certain you'll find many amongst your subscribers who would greatly support that. Honestly, I thought your Mawtribes narrative was very authentic to the source material, yet without becoming stale as a result; it revealed a fascinating side to the Mawtribes' society as creatures with a complex logic informing their (literal) consumer culture, and it actually helped to fill in the gap (for me at least) of why, when Glutos Orscollion is a thing, the ever-hungry Ogres aren't all enthralled to Slaanesh themselves; it's not gluttony on the Ogres' part so much as a hunger that is both necessitated by, and necessitates, the survival of nothing less than the strongest, whereas Glutos is now ever-hungry *because* he was weak (at least, that's my understanding of it.) But, yeah: no worries, and many thanks again for making such great quality content
Very cool videos, really helpful I would like to have a few sentences to the start collecting boxes if available, quickly talk about the units contain and if it's a good starting point for newcomers, I think that would be a nice thing to have Anyway keep it up, I'm eager to see your take on all the other interesting factions
Honestly I’m torn between DoK, Kharadron, fyrelayers, and seraphon for my favorite order armies. But if I had to chose I think I’d give it to DoK simply because their models are better, plus snakes are cool.
This is probably a dumb question but do models who have both melee and shooting on both their warscrolls attack in both phases, or is it just one of the weapons that the model is equipped with.
They attack with whatever relevant weapons they have during any given phase. Just check the first paragraph to see which ones they get - sometimes it's not every one in the chart.
So attempting to make a Doa list, and somehow get some Dark Elves in there to really hammer home the old total war feel. But when I add in the Dark Elves in the war scroll builder it says there not allies? Can't I just have two separate forces then combine them together?
I just started a DoK army (maybe they should be DoM now after Morathis ascension... DoooooM) But all I want is snakes and harpies and avatars for Christmas, so I probably won’t win a lot but it looks fun! :)
Envious are the fundamental-forced armies at this "cake where you can eat it too" battletome right at the fulcrum of power meets good design, the beasts of chaos and sylvaneth sigh
Iove the vid and dig the new intro but can we please have that sweet sweet throat signing come back with the new intro visuals plz?, it genuinely soothed my brain
I didn't because FeC is more about your monsters slapping shit while your troops are just kind of wiggly objective campers, where DoK is more about good troops juiced up to the max.
@@HeyWoah I don't see the big monsters as much nowadays. Maybe my locals are just bored of that style. I see a lot of the ogre sized flyboys but I do see your distinction, it;s more of a chaff wrapper around power pieces.
Your telling me I can have a statue T posing over my enemies while on a blood wagon full of a bunch of goth girls? You've convinced me
you're
I mean it is "his" telling. Let it slide fun police.
Lesson 6: assert dominance
Finally! My inner teenager fantasy can be fulfilled!
Big tiddy goth girls.

Just As Planned
The absolute madmen at GW. They not only included monster girls in their game, but made them great to play. Plus, absolutely beautiful models.
Once again, this is the best AoS series on TH-cam.
Also, super ASMR-friendly, insightful, humorous (but not in a pompous/dickish way like at least one popular AoS content creator that comes to mind), and always positive when due.
That double Genny joke had me reeling. Great work!
When HeyWoah perfectly channels your feelings about a battletome...insert Antonio Banderas' reaction GIF here.
I wanted to paint some lamia, so I got a start collecting box... and now, 9 months later, have a huge army. Thank you for the content!
The quality on these just keeps getting better and better. Awsome job man.
As soon as I see your videos it’s a windmill slam. Your deadpan style with humour is really great. Makes AoS really accessible
Looking forward to a Faction Focus: Hedonites of Slaanesh.
I *almost* spat my drink. Cheers...
I would prefer maggotkin, but hedonites are cool too.
Absolutely fantastic, these are some of my favourite videos on TH-cam and I’m glad you’ve released another one. About to watch now, hope all’s well with you HeyWoah and that you’re safe and healthy in these trying times
BIG upload
Thank you internet opinion man! I already collect this army but the affirmation I received from this video was BIG
Recently found out about this channel and it's amazing. One of the best warhammer channels I've seen.
These are some of my favorite AoS videos on TH-cam. A great concise blend of lists and lore. Gotta love it
BIG upload, happy to watch after work (or during)
The fact you used a Dead Alive/Brain dead clip makes my day.
I kick ass for the Lord...of Murder!!!
This video is very cohesive and easy to understand. Thank you
That "sippy cup" is really addicting to hear XD
Take notes, Alarielle! Great vid
Dude, amazing timing!! I was hoping you where gonna make one of these sometime soon! The hype is real.
Been checking your channel weekly for a new one of these!!!
Or just turn on notifications 😉

Man I missed these so much!!!

Case in point the Daughters of Khaine they're a very brutal, very sadistic anti-heroine Dark Aelf faction who on more then one occasion have stepped into the role of anti-villains
Even if I don't play them, I always love these videos!
Whelp...can't ever think of it as a sipppy cup from now on.
I love these faction focus videos. Thanks for the great work!
thank you dopemaster
Yes! Oh my god, yes! I've watched through the other videos in this series a few times each, I really like them. This is great!
Please, if you ever rummage for other video ideas, do the other factions in AoS. They're really great and the best of their kind on TH-cam! :D
So glad to see another faction focus. Great content.
I do like these Blood Elves. I hope the Shadow Elves have Spider Elves.
11:55
That’s the Gate of Babylon
I miss the old sound bit that used to play at the start of your vids.
sry
My twitch prime subscription finally pays off!
Good guide. We need more of these and maybe some updates to existing videos. I really seem to struggle to find a place that fleshes out the playstyles of an army in a brief explanation.
It’s been too long since one of these came out. I look forward to more.
Mono god chaos ones would be good.
I miss old "mmmmmmmmmhmmmmhmhm" intruzów.
Monster Musume the army
underrated comment
heywoahBIG
Yay! I love these faction focus videos! Great job man!
As always an amusing, yet concise analysis of the army; thank you so much for making these videos :)
I'd hoped for another narrative intro in the propaganda segment, as you'd done previously for the Mawtribes video, but I'm guessing you decided not to include it this time round in favour of the short summary of the Broken Realms instead (?)
The feedback on writing a narrative story intro was mixed at best. Some liked it but a lot thought it was cringe
@@HeyWoah Okay, understood.

Return of the king
Great video! Is there any chance that a Tzeentch video is in the works?
I'm looking forward to you sometime hopefully covering the Beasts of Chaos
Awesome to see another faction focus!
These are amazing, keep up the good work.
*Please do more Faction focus videos .*
Great rundown. You get a like and a subscribe just on the "sippy cup" lines. Had me lol
*Let’s fucking go!*
Very cool videos, really helpful
I would like to have a few sentences to the start collecting boxes if available, quickly talk about the units contain and if it's a good starting point for newcomers, I think that would be a nice thing to have
Anyway keep it up, I'm eager to see your take on all the other interesting factions
Been too long since the last Faction Focus. Keep’em up! 😃
Hurrah! Lots of fun HeyWoah. Thanks!
You keep getting better
Great job, and the Daughters are way expensive, but StregthHammer is right in loving this army!
Honestly I’m torn between DoK, Kharadron, fyrelayers, and seraphon for my favorite order armies. But if I had to chose I think I’d give it to DoK simply because their models are better, plus snakes are cool.
DoK is my most favorite faction in AoS. My character in AoS: Soulbound is a Witch Aelf
BIG
DOUBLE
GENNIES
Me recuerdan mucho a la Sociedad Azteca pero con Matriarcado (Sociedad guerra con mucha mistica)
That's the impression I got as well, except with a bit of a greek look for visuals.
This is probably a dumb question but do models who have both melee and shooting on both their warscrolls attack in both phases, or is it just one of the weapons that the model is equipped with.
They attack with whatever relevant weapons they have during any given phase. Just check the first paragraph to see which ones they get - sometimes it's not every one in the chart.
@@HeyWoah i see thanks so much!
Unexpected Fire emblem reference! Good work.
Welcome Back!
Banger video bud
Where did the narrative introduction go? Of meta?
Awesome video btw ♥
A lot of people thought it was cringe to write little stories and narrate them at the beginning so I stopped
So attempting to make a Doa list, and somehow get some Dark Elves in there to really hammer home the old total war feel. But when I add in the Dark Elves in the war scroll builder it says there not allies? Can't I just have two separate forces then combine them together?
Generally you want Har Kuron, a City of Sigmar that can only take Dark Elves and have a fourth of their units be Daughters of Khaine.
@@Willie5000 ooohhh so no allies that are other elves like deepkin?
@@starguy1o163 Not that I'm aware of. They certainly don't get the one in four rule for Stormcast.
@@Willie5000 I know about that but I'm just seeing what else I can stuff my list with
Please let future Idoneth battletome be like this, GW I beg you
Too bad I can't thumbs up this more than once.
I know... it stinks.
I just started a DoK army (maybe they should be DoM now after Morathis ascension... DoooooM)
But all I want is snakes and harpies and avatars for Christmas, so I probably won’t win a lot but it looks fun! :)
Love these!
Where are the faction focus videos :((( I subbed for faction focus videos :(((
I miss that howling intro... Even if it was creepy AF.
Great video! I didn't know I had an interest in DoK before this.
Another great video.
Great to see you back! please tell me you are doing the new slaanesh next :D
Can't wait for Ligions Of Nagash Video.
DOUBLE GENNIES
God I wish they had put this much work into Fyreslayers... Still my favorite boys tho.
I can't get over how you call it a "sippy cup"
Awesome review. When will you be doing your next one?
BIG
I want to buy this army but I'm afraid of the looks my family will give. I wanna play this army as an elf horde but I don't think that will look good
@@TheRatsintheWalls I'm super new to the hobby. I've been debating with army to get for a while
@@TheRatsintheWalls The new soulblight grave lords and Bonereapers
hay thanks for the content, was having a bad day, and then i saw this, :) good stuff thanks man

My answer is for GW to keep doing this, raise that water level
awesome as always keep up the great content
Can you use these with anvil gaurds iam new to warhammer and confused
Thanks for your hard work 👍
Been catching up on the twitch streams and happy to see a clip of Brain Dead...."I kick arse for The Lord.."
I’d love to see a vid on sons of behemat. Would be a short but sweet vid.
Do love these videos keep them coming
you keep me in this hobby
Iove the vid and dig the new intro but can we please have that sweet sweet throat signing come back with the new intro visuals plz?, it genuinely soothed my brain
I hope slaanesh is soon I've done 3 games but still have no idea how to play the new book
Well now I want to paint up some DoK
Having been away from AoS for a while, are Daughters of Khaine seems one of the most popular armies?
Not really where I am. Expensive to collect and lots of skin to paint. Also people either love or hate the look.
Surprised you didn't recommend FeC as another one that might appeal by playstyle?
I didn't because FeC is more about your monsters slapping shit while your troops are just kind of wiggly objective campers, where DoK is more about good troops juiced up to the max.
@@HeyWoah I don't see the big monsters as much nowadays. Maybe my locals are just bored of that style. I see a lot of the ogre sized flyboys but I do see your distinction, it;s more of a chaff wrapper around power pieces.
Are these part of the dark elves army
Big
New battletome sounds awesome, I wanted Snake builds to get better, but I will try not to get this army. Soulblight is calling...
Love these
