After playing a few more games with the extremely simple to understand, and pilot, Genestealer Cults book I am ready to bestow more of my Cult wisdom. Just kidding, this book is super complex, and I am still getting the hang of how best to mold my favorite army into a decent fighting force on…

The Primus Is The New Patriarch
The new Genestealer Cults book is complex. There are blips, Ambush, Underground and Crossfire all to wrap your head around. These are just the basic rules of the faction! Once a GSC player has a firm grasp on these game mechanics they can start to check out the datasheets for the units in the Codex…

There are a variety of reasons…
Scoring Primary Points with GSC is Easy…Right?
9th Edition 40k has taken a strong shift from the supremacy of the shooting army to the rise of the melee army.
The Best of the Worst GSC
GSC is in a tough spot right now. While over the last few weeks I’ve written articles talking up some of the pros to playing GSC in 9th Edition the fact is that our poor faction is (statistically) one of the worst in the game right now. I do not say this to discourage anyone…
