9x19 Parabellum Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) Nice video. I'm torn on the Repulsor. Lemme 'splain: So yesterday I played my first Black Templar game vs. buddy's Bloody Rose AS. I brought an impulsor (my only DT as I'm somewhat new to the army and I'm doing only primaris). I loaded it with 3 Bladeguard Vets, the BG Ancient, Apothecary (who happened to be on loan and out of uniform regulations due to the Raven Guard crest on one of his shoulder pads), and my judiciar. This crew did well. The Flyno screamed across the board turn 1, the BG vets got out turn 2 and were on the other side of the map tearing up his back line by end of my turn 2. They did great. The bladeguard ancient was absolutely wasted. No gun, no weapon = no damage. Does not do enough at 85 points. Thus, I'd say I'm agreeing with your points on the Impulsor. Notably, what was NOT in a transport, was my eradicators. My opponent was using 2 Exorcists. I quickly came to lament the fact that I had no safe place to put my eradicators that would also allow them to threaten the targets they wanted to threaten. So I played them more defensively than I would have liked to. They failed to blow up a rhino on turn (thanks Shield of Faith) and then subsequently got charged and taken down by Ephrael Stern and a back-to-life Cannoness on turn 3. So I'm not ruling for the Repulsor, but I'm not ruling against it either. It may be a case that eradicators need to go into tactical reserve. Edit: this was my first game ever playing BT, my first game of 9th edition, and my first game of 40k since the beginning of March. All of which to say I'm probably off on my conclusions, but then again I might not be. Also, I lost the game the final score would have been around 45-30 (though I conceded at end of turn 4 as I was too far behind in points).

Acebaur Posted September 18, 2020 Author Share Posted September 18, 2020 Yeah, Eradicators I've come to decide need to be put in SR. That way they are safe and can tag something when they come in. A repuslor is simply too expensive and will become a fire magnet if you put them in it. BLACK BLΠFLY 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SydonianDragoon404 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Plenty of content for you guys to be going over at this point haha, looking forward to your videos on the codex and our Index document just in case I missed anything.

Medjugorje Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 already saw your new video... Another guy already did a perfect question. Would be nice to hear how he played each of the different lists - especially Top Tier armies like Harleqins and other Space Marines like White Scars or Dark Angles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SydonianDragoon404 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I imagine everyone was probably short on time, so if there's any way we could get a second appearance from him in a less structure format so the conversation could flow a bit more freely that would be really nice.

Marshal Laeroth Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I would have liked some tactical discussion during the interview - he came across as a bit guarded . He has his own content program, so I felt like he was probably holding back a little due to that. BLACK BLΠFLY 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway congrats to Joseph Clark on the result, Im very happy Black Templars are finally popping up at tournaments.

BitsHammer Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 I just stumbled into the channel by accident. Good content so far! I'm still torn though because I feel like the big thing holding me back is the lack of Primaris Crusader Squad options.

9x19 Parabellum Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Also agree; great channel. I always get excited to see when new content pops up. I have to poop on Infiltrators as being a good troop choice...for anybody really. They are just too expensive for what they do. They don't shoot particularly well. They don't melee well. The Helix thing is very gimmicky, and fairly easy to get around (small arms until they fail one, then hit them with the bigger guns like plasma or whatever). If it procced per phase you might have something there. The 6's to hit = wound is also very gimmicky for a weapon that doesn't have particularly high rate of fire, or any AP. The deepstrike negation is nice, but it comes at a premium. And the concealed positions ability is redundant to Incursors who can at least melee decently, have a shooting niche, and are cheaper. In short they are middling all over the place but with a marquis price tag. MarshalMittermeier 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9x19 Parabellum Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Microsol and Microset are your friends ! Yes. I really can't even imagine doing transfers anymore without these 2 chemicals. BLACK BLΠFLY 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acebaur Posted December 9, 2020 Author Share Posted December 9, 2020 TBH, I don't use micro set, it's not necessary in my experience. Microsol is a staple though Doghouse 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x19 Parabellum Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I have found that doing transfers onto the shoulder of most marine pauldrons is frustrating because the concavity(?) is such that there is always some wrinkleage going on. Microset (blue) seems to make the transfer nice and soft so it 'wraps' around the curve of the pauldron, and Microsol (red) helps keep those wrinkles out while it's drying and "glue" it on.
