Doing some more hobby progress this week, just not the normal kind.
We take a look at the datasheet for the new Cadian Recon Squad and talk about not just whether you'll use them in 10th edition (probably one, maybe two, depending on your list), and what their rules mean with what we already know about 11th edition's rules around Cover and the Smoke Screen stratagem.
Edit: Now updated with the new Stealth ability revealed like two minutes after publication!
We recap what we'd learned about 11th edition 40k through last Saturday.
We take a look at the new Red Terror rules and how we think it'll shake out on the tabletop. Spoiler: That uppy downy rule is insanely strong.

We look at the top lists from events last weekend and the key matchups. Spoiler: There are a lot of Defilers in the mix this time around.
Isaac Terada talks about why RTTs matter and you should make going to them a regular part of your competitive journey, even if you're someone who wins GTs and Majors.
