    Chaos Chariots have the Single keyword in the Notes where you look at points, that means you can't reinforce them to take 2 in one unit, instead they have that weird rule where you can take 3. So you either take 1 or 3 in a unit. :)

    And also a new year incoming so hope for better rolls.
    I had 3 bloodthirsters, and made 6 dmg in total... so you can guess how bad the rolls were.

    Great game guys, loving the AOS content. While I understand the comments about the double turn, I think it's incredibly important in game because it prevents a quicker army from being able to take an army out of the game. Being able to pre measure ranges means you can leave an opponent unable to do anything, or only fight battles on one players terms.

  • @kurukblackflame
    @kurukblackflame Pƙed rokem +1

    48:10 Totally agree about the double turn. My friends and I have a house rule where we don't roll for priority on turn 1-2 as the player that went first on turn 1 often can't do very much. By keeping the same turn order at least until BR3 both players get a decent crack at doing their stuff.
    We do priorty rolls for the rest of the turns (3,4 and 5) but I'm still not a big fan of it. The way combat works in AofS mitigates it to some extent but lists with strong shooting can get really out of hand (imagine 40k but one player gets to have two turns in a row-Horrible). Luckily none of my friends take crazy shooting lists.
    If anything I'd like to see GW go in the oposite direction and make games with a squad by sqaud activation system like you have in Bolt Action. One of the things that put me off 40k was the number of games that are over by the end of player 1's first shooting phase. Player 2 is not wiped out but his losses are so great that he's basically done-All before he could even move a single piece.

    I think the general consensus is that at least one big unit of grave guard is the GOAT in Soulblight lists, but it's certainly not the only option. They are real fragile, so in some match ups they just get blown to bits before they get to do anything.

    On the double turns, I've seen some people get ruined in the first couple of battlerounds be able to get back into the game because of it. Granted, it can also cause people to get absolutely demolished, so it is a double edged sword. As the editions have gone on GW has gotten better at actually giving some benefits to going second, though I think it's fair to say it's still not perfect.
    Still it does potentially punish people from over extending, and can give people on the backfoot a fighting chance, so overall I like it, though I wish GW would do more to make going second a more viable option.
