Episode 10 - Piss Off Ghost!

In this episode, Chuck and I are joined by Lucias Meyer. Nighthaunt player and host of the now retired Battleshock podcast. We start the show off with introducing our guest and talking about the metrics that were shared by the Honest Wargamer this week.

Next, we breakdown our top 3 Nighthaunt warscrolls. A few surprises and a good analysis of some of the units we think make for a good Nighthaunt list. Lucias even shares some of his experiences with a couple units not on the list.

We wrap up the show with another 5 Questions. This week's questions are all Nighthaunt themed, so expect a few ghostly surprises.

In this week's episode, we kick things off with discussing the results of the 6 Nations tournament.  We breakdown some of the biggest surprises coming out of how players were using 2nd edition at the event.  We have a good laugh over 64 damage grots and ponder whether Seraphon summoning is such a horrible thing.  Most importantly, we remind ourselves and everyone that GW will fix the problems in a timely fashion.

In the second segment of the show, we review the Myrmourn Banshee warscroll.  We talk about why the new unit is great and a couple tricks we would use with them.  Chuck also works the math to see how many I can fit into a 1000 point army and still be legal.
