Roll To Seize: A Warhammer 40k Podcast

We've got seizes to share, lists to plan, and a grim dark sunset to ride off into. It's our show's finale! Thank you to everyone who has supported us over these 5 years and listened each month to our terrible mistakes and mostly ridiculous lists. You've all been amazing. Till next time...

A big announcement this episode as we reveal this being our second to last episode for Roll to Seize. We get into some seizes of the month and talk about how the FAQ has impacted list-building across the board.  Seizes of the Month: Jay: Budget your psychic power CP! Andrew: Our first "universal seize" about knowing when to go all in on an army Crystal Stacks: Jay and Andrew run through various armies and how the new FAQ unlocked a lot of cool ways you could craft lists and which armies benefited the most from it.

While we wait for the big FAQ, we're back with another episode and Jay and Andrew are still screwing up. In our Crystal Stacks segment, the boys test how stealthy an entire mechanized GSC force can be!     Seizes of the Month:   Jay: It's important to read the fine print of a tournament pack...so maybe...do that! Andrew: Be sure to budget those command points!     Crystal Stacks:   Jay and Andrew apply the rule of cool to a Genestealer Cult list and answer the questions, can you go full Goliath and win? The answer... may surprise you.     GSC Bladed Cog Brigade   HQ: Jackal Alphus: jackal sniper rifles - 70   HQ: Primus: needle pistol, bonesword, toxin injector claw, blasting charges - 75   HQ: Magus: Force Stave - 80   Troops: x10 Neophyte Hybrids: x6 autoguns, x2 mining lasers, x2 grenade launchers, blasting charges - 80   Troops: x10 Neophyte Hybrids: x6 autoguns, x2 mining lasers, x2 grenade launchers, blasting charges - 80   Troops: x10 Neophyte Hybrids: x6 autoguns, x2 mining lasers, x2 grenade lau

Another tournament has come and gone and Jay and Andrew are still making terrible mistakes.

Will there be a lot of hot-shot las? You better believe it!     Hot Shots List:   Requested by Apple Peel     Battalion Detachment HQ Tempestor Prime: frag and krak grenades, tempestus command rod 45 HQ Tempestor Prime: frag and krak grenades, tempestus command rod 45 Troops x5 Tempestus Scions: x3 hot-shot lasguns, x2 plasma guns, frag and kra

We're back from holy Terra and fresh off of LVO 2019! Do we have a ton of seizes? You bet. Are they all our fault? Of course. Will we learn? Find out! Also, we take some time at the end to talk about the new lists and new factions we'll be taking on in 2019!   Seizes of the Month: Jay: If you can kill a Castellan....do it!  Andrew: Turns out, LVO wasn't 100% Custodes bikes   Hall B-9 Magic! (we are so very lost): Jay and Andrew take a look at the new factions and lists they'll be working on in the coming months. Both include a lot more conversions than you'd expect!

It's that special time of year, when Jay and Andrew not only discuss their faults from previous tournaments, but more importantly, mentally and physically (like push ups maybe?) prepare for the Las Vegas Open, the biggest Warhammer 40k tournament in the world. So come with us on this magical journey as we explore this tournament's biggest threats and discuss what lists we're bringing to take them down.  Seizes of the Month: Jay: Don't be overly aggressive towards -2 to hit flyers...it doesn't end well  Andrew: Don't switch armies last minute...definitely don't do it like 3 times in a row Mystery Wardrobe (Technically a closet): Jay and Andrew dive deep into their list building process and share their two LVO lists. Will they be successful? Can they make the top 8 (probably not)? Find out next month!  

Chapter Approved and Vigilus have dropped and the changes are pretty great, meanwhile, Jay and Andrew continue to miss the mark at their local tournament. In the Brown Library, Andrew goes full Primaris! Seizes of the Month: Jay: If you can trap a gunline in close combat...DO IT  Andrew: Never try to out-robot the master of robots Brown Library: With the many point drops in Chapter Approved, Andrew puts the G-man on the front line along with a host of Intercessors to back him up. Check out if this cardboard crusade has enough punch and surprise to make it to the top tables.   Cardboard Crusade List 1: Ultramarines Battalion Chaplain Venerable Dreadnought: x2 dreadnought fists, x2 storm bolters 174 Chaplain Venerable Dreadnought: x2 dreadnought fists, x2 storm bolters 174 Chaplain Venerable Dreadnought: x2 dreadnought fists, x2 storm bolters 174 x10 Intercessors: auto bolt rifles, x2 aux. grenade launchers 190 x10 Intercessors: auto bolt rifles, x2 aux. grenade launchers 190 x10 Intercessors: bolt rifles,

Chapter Approved is just around the corner as Jay and Andrew hold their breath for big changes. Meanwhile, they continue to make mistakes at their local tournament. In the Brown Library, we go full greenskin and ramshackle together an army worthy of Gork AND Mork.  Seizes of the Month: Jay: Despite their size, a grot is a surprisingly good blocker.  Andrew: Don't put your shooty units near their stabby units. Brown Library: After taking a much closer look at the Ork codex, Andrew has concocted a truly terrifying and stompy list. Does it have a big robot? Maybe. Does it have a ton of robots? I mean, probably.  Romper Stomper List: Evil Suns Spearhead Big Mek: kustom force field, slugga, choppa 75 Morkanaut: x2 rokkit launchas, x2 twin big shootas, kustom mega zappa, kustom mega blasta, klaw of gork(mork) 310 x3 Deff Dreads: x4 dread klaws 345 x3 Deff Dreads: x4 dread klaws 345 Deff Skullz Battalion Big Mek:  Shokk attack gun 80 Big Mek: shokk attack gun 80 x10 grots 30 x10 grots 30 x10 grots 30 x6 killa

An exciting new podcast to announce and MORE!

The Ork codex has arrived and we celebrate the debut of the greenskins with a few highlights as we try to forget yet another month of some terrible mistakes from our local tournament. In the Brown Library, we try to keep our minds off our haunted surroundings by going full wolf with a brand new Space Wolves list!   Seizes of the Month: Jay: Necron tesla certainly can be quite....shocking! Andrew: Putting all your eggs in one basket is bad, but setting that basket on fire is worse Brown Library: To celebrate Halloween we thought, what's scarier than an army of literal werewolves? Not much it turns out, especially when you've got a million auras to buff you beyond comprehension! Needless to say, the pups of Russ are in full force in this month's list.  Thriller Horde: Space Wolves Battalion HQ Krom Dragongaze 90 HQ Harald Deathwolf: Warlord, Saga of the Wolfkin 188 Troops x6 Blood Claws: power axe, bolt pistols and chainswords 83 Troops x6 Blood Claws: power axe, bolt pistols and chainswords 83 Tro

It's experimental month here at Roll to Seize as Jay and Andrew recount their wild lists and how they screwed up at last month's tournament. In our Brown Library segment, our boys look at the CP battery faction and ask, can it be more and the answer is... yes, obviously.  Seizes of the Month:Jay: Never underestimate a Deathshroud Terminator.  Andrew: Adding more of a bad unit doesn't always make it better. Brown Library:With Imperial Guard CP batteries appearing everywhere, Jay and Andrew look to the age old Leman Russ to breath some new life back into the Astra Militarum meta.  Tank You Very Much List: Cadian Spearhead HQ Knight commander Pask: Punisher gatling cannon, lascannon 217 HQ Tank Commander: Punisher gatling cannon, heavy bolter 195 HQ Tempestor Prime: Rod of command, Relic: Lawrels of command 45 Troops x10 Tempestus Scions: x10 hot-shot lasguns 100 Troops x10 Tempestus Scions: x10 hot-shot lasguns 100 Troops x10 Tempestus Scions: x10 hot-shot lasguns 100 Heavy Support Leman Russ: pun

Strap in as we celebrate our 50th episode and recap one of our biggest local tournaments of the year, Hammer of Wrath! Did we make some mistakes...oh boy did we. In our Brown Library segment, we look ahead to what the hive mind might have brewing just around the corner.  Seizes of the Month: Jay: If your models actually make it to the table, they have a much higher chance of doing something Andrew: Chaos Daemons are a lot craftier than you think! Brown Library: In honor of the recent Tooth & Claw release, Jay and Andrew pledge themselves to the four-armed emperor as they explore the current state of Genestealer Cult and what we could see coming in their eventual release later this year.    Birthday Surprise List:   Cult Battalion Primus 76 Primus 76 Acolyte Iconward, relic: Icon of the cult ascendant 53 x20 acolyte hybrids, x8 rock saws, icon 352 x15 acolyte hybrids, x6 rock drills, icon 365 x10 neophyte hybrids, shotguns 50 x20 Purestrain genestealers, purestrain talons 300   Cult Battalion Magus 

Another tournament has come and gone and the mistakes keep on coming. In the Brown Library, we dive headfirst into the noble houses of the Imperial Knights and things start to get real "Thriller" up in here.   Seizes of the Month:     Jay: Turns out it's really hard to slow down a towering robotic monstrosity.     Andrew: If you can kill a Magnus....always...always kill a Magnus.     Brown Library:     Jay and Andrew discuss the incredible houses of the Imperial Knights and just how exciting and even terrifying their relics and stratagems can be.

The boys are back with a new tournament under their belt and plenty of ridiculous mistakes along the way. In the Brown Library, we've got another wild one with Jay taking the lead on this month's list and driving us straight to clown town.   Seizes of the Month: Jay: Khorne does not care from where the blood flows... remember that  Andrew: Creating your own kill box is not a great strategy Brown Library: Jay and Andrew open up the doors of the Black Library and discuss the mysterious ninja clowns themselves, the Harlequins. With 3 masques, 3 relics, and some crazy stratagems, this might be a truly dangerous list. The Last Laugh List: Soaring Spite Battalion HQ Troupe Master / Caress / Fusion Pistol / Prismatic grenades - 86 HQ Shadowseer / Mistave / Shuriken Pistol / Prismatic grenades - 125 Troops 3x Troupe (5) / Fusion Pistol (5) / Harlequin Blade (5) / Prismatic grenades - 330 Transport 3x Starweaver / Shuriken Cannons (2) - 297 Fast 1x Skyweavers (5) / Zephyrglaive (5) / Haywire Cannons (5) - 255 Froz

Its been a weird month and for some reason, both Andrew and Jay were unable to navigate the shifting pathways of the webway to make it to this previous month's tournament. Is it possible they still found plenty of ways to make mistakes? Absolutely! In the Brown Library, we've gotten a listener request to focus on one specific unit, which perfectly coincides with a recently dropped codex!  Seizes of the Month: Jay: Never go half clown!  Andrew: It's OK to bring bolters now! We promise! Brown Library: Jay and Andrew take a long look at the Primaris Aggressor and how a little Deathwatch goes a LONG WAY for this unit. We break down a new Deathwatch Primaris army and it's surprisingly terrifying!  Too Aggressor Too Furious List:   Deathwatch Battalion HQ Watch Captain with jump pack, thunder hammer, storm shield, Relic: Tome 129 HQ Watch Captain with jump pack, thunder hammer, storm shield 129 Troops x5 intercessors, bolt rifles, x4 aggressors, boltstorm gauntlets, grenade launchers, inceptor, x2 plasma exterm

Games Workshop has released their biggest FAQ to date making this, essentially, Edition 8.5. We talk a lot about the changes, but of course, we give plenty of time to discuss our many mistakes in the local tournament scene. In the Brown Library, we pull a switcheroo and Jay's crafted a list, courtesy of the insane Necron tactician, Nemesor Zahndrekh.  Seizes of the Month: Jay: The Drukhari are BACK and boy oh boy are they tough.  Andrew: If a knight has a 3+ Invulnerable...maybe shoot at something else. Brown Library: Jay and Andrew delve into the history and tactics of the Necrons' greatest bromance, Nemesor Zahndrekh and Vargard Obyron. This insane general and best pal have been waiting a long time for the opportunity to strike, and with this FAQ, they just might have it.  Sautek Shuffle List:   Sautek Battalion: HQ - Nemesor Zahndrekh - 180 HQ - Vargard Obyron - 140 HQ - Cryptek / Chronomotron (Veil of Darkness) - 95 Troops - x20 Necron Warriors / Gauss Flayers - 240 Troops - x8 Necron Immortals / Tesla

Games Workshop has just dropped a ton of new sneak peaks as well as two hot new codexes. We dive in and try to forget the mistakes we continue to make at our monthly tournament. In the Brown Library, we put the fury back in the classic list and get Tau ready for 8th Edition.  Seizes of the Month: Jay: Heroic intervention is a thing...and it can really screw up your tricky combat plans Andrew: If you've got one lynchpin in your army...maybe hide that lynchpin Brown Library: Jay and Andrew take a long look at 8th Edition Tau, drop the riptides, and dig in on some surprisingly strong units. And sure, there are plenty of strong Septs like T'au or Bork'an, but for this month, we make ol' Aun'shi proud and make a strong case for the fast, the deadly, Vior'la.    Fish of Fury 2.0 List:   Viorla Battalion HQ Aun'shi 60 HQ Coldstar Commander, x4 flamers, Relic: nuke flamer 122 Troops x5 breachers, pulse blasters 35 Troops x5 breachers, pulse blasters 35 Troops x5 breachers, pulse blasters 35 Transport Devilfish, x2

Exciting releases are just around the corner but to tide things over we think back on our mistakes from this month and cringe. In the Brown Library, we discuss every Eldar's favorite god, Slaanesh. Did we say favorite? Whoops.      Seizes of the Month: Jay: Those Tzaangor bird men are a lot tougher than you might think Andrew: Shadowswords...just don't fight them. The End Brown Library: Jay and Andrew dive deep into the new Daemon Codex and craft a list that only the sexiest of sexy gods would approve. Slaaanesh Battalion HQ Keeper of Secrets 223 HQ Daemon prince with wings, x2 malefic talons, Relic: Mark of Excess 180 Troops x30 daemonettes, daemonic icon, instrument of chaos 235 Troops x10 daemonettes, daemonic icon, instrument of chaos 95 Troops x10 daemonettes, daemonic icon, instrument of chaos 95 Slaaanesh Battalion HQ Herald of Slaanesh, Relic: The Forbidden Gem 66 HQ Herald of Slaanesh 66 Troops x10 daemonettes, daemonic icon, instrument of chaos 95 Troops x10 daemonettes, daemonic icon, instrument

The boys are back from the Las Vegas Open, the world’s largest and arguably most competitive Warhammer 40k tournament and convention. On this special episode, Jay and Andrew won’t be crafting any new lists, but will instead share their thoughts on Games Workshop’s big reveals from the event, their take on the current meta, and of course, how badly they screwed up.
