Surprised you said that you didn't like Deredeo dreadnaughts (while discussing Sons of Horus) yet they appear so highly on your stats spreadsheet (low damage per point). I though they looks good for their firepower and has a nice rule to get skyfire when required by going on a FF order. Am I missing something ? I had glossed over the "ignoring Allied Contingents" in the Alpha Legion rules, that's a real pain as it would be great to infiltrate some sort ranged units such as dreadnaughts.
For events we're likely going to have to limit the number of formations in general, and the first change likely to happen is limiting marines to 1 faction and forcing them to burn their 30% allies to take a 2nd. Reasons are balance, aesthetic, but also, it might be hard enough to get people to have their legions paint job correspond to their rules, having to deal with that multiple times over is also not ideal.
Of note, unless I am mis-reading the rule; Alpha legion Allies do get a special rule if all allied detachments are alpha legion. It’s less potent than the full army rule, but still something.

I'm not sure I see a huge need to limit the formation count. Were you thinking 4 or so?

I am personally waiting to hear back from GW to see if the word "army" in the allied contingent section was supposed to be "formation."
Great vid but bro for the love of god edit out your sniffles and swallows lol
Thank you for the feedback. This is only the second video with my new mic and it seems I have it too close and I have switched to the big windscreen.
Oh great, another GW re-release that invalidates previous collections. 🙄
As this is my first GW game, I'm excited to participate in this game's release.
@@BattleWagon2467 its too bad you missed it when it was good.
