40K Fireside

In this 40K Fireside episode, Vik and Dave preview the LGT meta by looking through the top ELO players attending the event and the lists they are bringing.We start with updates on Atlas, the Master Matrix, new course content, and the wider LGT field, before diving into the big faction trends: Custodes everywhere, Orks rising fast, Dark Angels still hanging around the top, and some interesting questions around dispositions like Priority Assets and Disruption.From there, we go through some of the most interesting top player lists at the event, including Innes Wilson’s AdMech, Manny’s Dark Angels double Nephilim Jetfighter build, Dave’s Blood Legion Daemons, Liam’s wild CSM Disruption list, Naseem’s Ultramarines throwback, Glenn’s Tau, Andy’s Necrons, Greg’s Votann, Vik’s Sisters, Matt Bonnet’s Orks, and even some Thunderhawk madness.We also talk through sleeper picks, faction specialists, top cut predictions, which armies may overperform, and why this LGT could reward players sticking with what they know rather than simply chasing the obvious meta picks.02:24 Main Show13:52 Dispositions Priority Assets Talk18:18 Top ELO Lists Intro18:35 Innes Wilson AdMech Breakdown22:28 Manny Dark Angels Jetfighters25:56 Dave Blood Legion List30:55 Liam CSM Disruption Spice35:28 Naseem Ultramarines Throwback39:35 Glenn Tau Left Field Pick41:29 Tau Loadout Talk43:09 Necrons Without Vault45:39 Votann Meta Sleeper47:55 Why Sisters Not Eldar50:10 Sisters Vehicle Core54:59 Terrain And Weapons57:20 Orks Dread Mob Threat01:00:35 Honorable Mentions01:04:26 Thunderhawk Madness01:08:16 Top Cut Predictions01:12:45 Goals And SignoffSee you all again soon - by the Fireside,Vik & DaveCheck out our E-courses for competitive Warhammer at https://40kfireside.com#warhammer #40kFireside #firesidepodcast #firesideJoin this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyYYtA8JdF-04NKO7ZmORkQ/joinFor Business Inquiries: [40kFireside@gmail.com](mailto:40kFireside@gmail.com)

In this 40K Fireside episode, Dave takes a step back to talk about the state of Warhammer 40K 11th Edition after its first few months.We look at the early signs of tournament growth, including huge attendance numbers at WTC, Warmasters and LGT, why the new terrain system has been one of the biggest wins of the edition so far, and what the codex rollout could mean for the health of the game moving forward.Dave also talks through the current meta using the Nova Top 8 as a snapshot, why the game feels like it is in a pretty healthy place overall, and where 11th Edition still needs work — especially around scoring, secondary banking, primary dispositions, and how often players are reaching 100-point games.
