List idea video next?

You said Venetari did not get a damage buff, however they got the Explosives keyword now, which i think is pretty handy.

@nullite4589 21 hours ago

I will say with respect to the ASC, he can be given Sally, then telepoet anywhere to give you AAC almost anywhere you need it, and if you are the terminator detachment, he can make a 7" charge to boot.

Hard to make flexible, non Purge non Take and Hold lists with all the goodies. Either you go Trajan, Shield Captain, Dreads, or Trajan, Dreads, Bikes. Also, easy to overcommit and whiff into death balls. Better to use mobility and strike at the fringes of your opponent; avoid the death ball.

38:01 ”Sus against small people”?! Guess we gotta cancel the Galatus before it goes too far😔

@chosenundead7489 19 hours ago

I feel like the Achillus is underrated.

With the enhancement at 13 strength and lance your wounding toughness 12 on a 2.

With the rerolls i dont think its unlikely hitting on a 2 and wounding on a 2 to hand your opponent all 6 saves.

At damage 3d + 4 even with an inv 4 saving half those saves your likely getting about 18 wounds through.

And you have really good screen clearing flame throwers.

Witchseekers must be in S TIER

@doomdog797 21 hours ago

Grav tanks hold the whole army together. Need to be b tier at least

You keep saying Trajan can attach to Allarus, but to me knowledge he cannot?

@FPSveteran 21 hours ago

gotta agree with everything besides ranking the BC. he's solid and if spammed isnt the worst idea seeing as how he's a solid generalist for his price in comparison to other units. Not the greatest, but doesn't belong in D for sure.

@Elite-Hatter 22 hours ago

Venatari S Teir. (I'm 12 seconds in)

@omgponies111 22 hours ago

They lost the land raider?

@TheGraham27 21 hours ago

So there is units that are good into bikes. ..anti fly.

@StraightSquiggles 19 hours ago

Allarus only up down once, they're far worse than they were with nerfs to captain. Venetari can do it repeatedly with free/additional rapid ingress, no leader needed. The first unit of venetari with Lance is auto include imo unless running lots of terminators.

@ryanswarner1915 21 hours ago

You're incorrect about Spear Venetari. Their main purpose isn't uppy downy. It's the Explosives keyword and their stupid mine.
You're probably still correct about them being B tier.

@piotrjeske4599 21 hours ago

How are people suppose to use their armies from previous editions ? My friend has 30 halbard dudes, 15 wardens , 21 allarus , 18 jetbikes, 3 blade wizards, trajan and Valerian He doesn't have the tanks(aside for the land raiders which were removed) , he doesn't have dreadnoughts and he wants to play custodes. From what he seen online , what people build , he can use Trajan. He doesn't even have the shield captins and venetari , because he hates how the models look.

Just a quick comment about you not being consistent in ratings or justifying your rating

- In sentinel guard you said s6 isn't massive breakpoint so in your opinion they are better than guards because of that, and in venetari you made an issue that they have s7 instead of s8 of allarus that's why you rate them in b
- again in sentinel guard you mentioned that they ability always comes up vs warens that only sometimes. Completely ignoring that massive chunk of opponents have S5-6 with lance/leathals with ap2, and only sometimes it goes up to powerfist level of S. Also ap2 in melee is insanely common.

@chippolascage9060 20 hours ago

One niche use for the ASC, even if it's more silly than good, is running him in Lions+Emperor's Chosen, rapid ingressing him in with 3 terminators, unleashing the lions, and popping a tank with 4 separate activations of rendax (assuming the split unit remains readied) before spreading out and being annoying
