Thank you!!!!!! The durability and stripping of cover, was always the big selling point for this tank. Also, when I had a warden charge one and it lived. That was my big push to switch out my warden for Rex.
Another amazing video. Amazing and thank you for each of these. Had a question for the future. Any plans on how you will do videos once the guard codex is released? Datasheet changes, new detachments, (potentially) new units, definitely new meta… each of those topics could be multiple videos. Any idea how you are doing to approach it?
Good question! I don't have a great answer on what exactly that'll look like I try to avoid making videos unless I feel like I have something useful to say, you'll notice I haven't made a video on the new Tempestus Aquilons because anything I say would be just pure speculation since we don't even have it confirmed it'll port over to 10th edition I'll probably do a first impressions video when the codex releases and go from there depending on how different we look
I’m glad hellhounds are getting some love! If youre running lots of low ap (6 chimera for example) would you ever consider taking both hellhounds and exterminators? Or do you think its more a case of one or the other? Thanks, keep it up!
Interesting thought! I definitely think there's room for a mix since the buffs stack, my primary concern would be how well the list would pass the Wardogs test since it's a lot of piddly shots But my last several lists have run both for sure
@@Joushi40kvery true, theres enough points in the list to fit in a couple demo tank commanders but yeah mostly using weight of fire of vehicle shots probably isn’t the most reliable!
Something to consider with the new Agents units is the possibility of getting this ability and more utility from an Immolator and a squad of sisters. The immolator and sisters together are 230 pts but you get two squads with sticky objective and one of them (ideally containing a as much melta or flamer as possible) will pack themselves into a formidable T10 box that can also strip the cover from a unit. Any thoughts? Also, I plan on doing a little play testing with these allied units in an IG army. I'll report back when I get some reps in.
@mek31000 ok the Immolator + Dominion squad is REALLY interesting to me, it looks a lot like old special weapon squads we could take in older editions and the d6 reactive move to hop onto points, back into the transport, or to jump forward and screen are all appealing Definitely worth exploring, excited to hear how it goes!
@@Joushi40k Oooh, I hadn't thought about the similarities to our old special weapon squads! Heads up, we're only getting the side-graded sisters of battle squad, which is just the battle sister squad but with sticky objective, a multi-melta/heavy flamer, a melta gun/flamer, and an inferno pistol/hand flamer. I would love a Dominion squad in an immolator as an ally option, though. Will do! Thanks for the reply!
Yeah Custodes with Lethal 5s and their volume means they chew through just about everything in the game efficiently, gotta use the Hellhounds to trap Custodes in fire lanes 😅
I'm a new 40k player, had my 3rd game two days ago, of course playing guard. Your channel is amazing, please keep up the good work!
Welcome to the Guard! Glad it's been helpful!
Great tip on doubling up FoF with a hellhound. I'm newly back into this game and hadn't thought of that combo
Great as usual 👌
Thank you!!!!!!

Yeah I can see how that would be a good reason! I've played against enough opponents that go wait... T10 2+? I thought it was a Chimera!

i tried Hellhounds against custodes. didn't work so well
Yeah Custodes with Lethal 5s and their volume means they chew through just about everything in the game efficiently, gotta use the Hellhounds to trap Custodes in fire lanes 😅
