Chaos Cult Tactics, Lists & Detachment Review | Chaos Space Marines Tactica

#warhammer40k #40k #csm #ironwarriors #chaosspacemarines

Today we'll be looking at one of the new kids on the block for 10th Edition, the long awaited Chaos Cults! Arriving from the new Chaos Space Marines codex this is a 40k army that's been much requested over the years (after Emperor's Children we'll just need Dark Mechanicum!). At first glance they look TERRIBLE, & they are, but by the end of this video I hope you'll be as hyped as me

We'll be doing a full-on detachment review that covers their special rules, enhancements & strategems. I've tossed in a few combos that may key off these guys & will also be showing off a few army lists that should hopefully help point you in the right direction for both casual & competitive Warhammer 40k

While they may not seem like much at first glance, it is very much possible that the new Chaos Cult detachment ends up being meta warping for the current 10th Edition wh40k tournament scene. They are basically a stat check, asking if you're capable of clearing a literal HORDE of Cultists from the board before they're able to outscore you.

While their Enhancements leave a bit to be desired & their datasheets may not look like much at first, this is one of those armies where the combined whole is more powerful than the individual parts. With Orks arriving on the scene as well, I hope you guys are ready to deal with the chaff!!

With the new CSM codex ready to take the field by storm, I'm excited to take a closer look at some of the options we're now getting access to for this point of 10th edition Warhammer 40k. I'm hopeful to go over each & every detachment as time goes on, from the Renegade Raiders, Veterans of the Long War, Soulforged Warpack & everything in-between!

While mainly focused on tournament & competitive play, all of these tips should be applicable to casual/garagehammer as well. I'm working on getting some battle reports & hopefully even some 40k lore videos eventually, as well as some Chaos Space Marine list going in the near future though hit me up if you have any suggestions!

Please consider liking & subscribing if you haven't already & please let me know if I missed anything important or if you've been cooking up some strategies of your own.
