January 20, 2025 New Guard Codex: List building Combined Arms
Hey there everyone!
Chatting through the Guard Combined Arms detachment, it's the index one we're all familiar with a few changes!
It's a bit of insight into how I build lists, what my thought process is, so hopefully you can take some of the points here and apply them yourself :)
As mentioned in the video, if you're interested in the Guard master class with Dave send an email to [email protected].
Dave will be covering all 6 detachments, with great tournament-ready lists for each one, a QnA and TTS analysis of the strengths of each detachment!

January 07, 2025 Nottingham Super Major Lists & Meta - Ep. 66

Welcome back to Episode 65 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite.
With the massive 400-person Nottingham Super Major this weekend, we get to see how the meta shapes up at the first big event following the Winter Balance Update and the grotmas detachments.
We analyse the overall faction distribution at the event (which looks incredibly balanced and interesting!), how we feel it represents the overall meta and we go through our list/faction choice (Dave= Guard, Vik= Eldar) to see how we feel we'll stack up at this event!---------------------
For a deeper dive into our lists/strategy for Nottingham, please feel free to join as a member and those will be available immediately along with all our previous strategy/faction deep dives.
If you'd like to join our discord server make sure to join at Phoenix Lord level - and thank you to all those who have, we're super happy you've been enjoying the extra strategic advice we can offer you more individually on the channel.

December 15, 2024 Winter Dataslate Singles Tier List - Ep. 65
Welcome back to Episode 64 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite.
Grotmas detachments galore and a full MFM/Balance Dataslate update - what a time to be a competitive 40K player!
With loads of information to process/analyse, we've spent the last few days gathering our thoughts on every faction to be able to update our Fireside 40K Tier List. We've focussed on high level singles play as our benchmark and made an active effort to split up armies into different tiers (e.g. A & B tier could be in the A tier together, but we've split them up and moved our B tier armies into C tier) representing their relative power to each other rather than a particular WR% band or any other statistical metric.

December 03, 2024 Reviewing and list build for the new Tyranids

Hey there everyone,

Walking through a review of the new tyranid detachment!

I've been playing tyranids on-and-off in practice since the last WTC and this detachment got me excited for unboxing my old Tyranid Warriors again :D

*A few minor corrections, the venom cannon goes to s11, and the exocrine goes to s11 also!

Thanks for listening,

October 02, 2024 The London GT IGNITED! - Ep. 62
Welcome back to Episode 62 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite.
A huge shoutout to Aaron for letting us know about an initiative with the American Cancer Society called the 'Battle Against Breast Cancer' which is bringing together 25+ tournaments in the USA with live streaming from Tactical Tortoise, Wargames Live, Warpcharged Gaming and Tabletop Live. The primary way of raising money is a raffle - for more information and to buy raffle tickets, check out www.noveopenfoundation.org
We're back from LGT, and couldn't be happier with a Team Ignite finals between Liam VSL (CSM) and Brian Seipp (Orks), with Liam managing to take the win to give him back-to-back LGT wins (insane!).
In this episode we analyse the meta as a whole, how it presented itself at the LGT, reflect on our lists and our results at the event. We make some spicy fireside hot takes on chess clocks and what we think should be in the upcoming balance slate!
Grab a drink, sit back, relax and enjoy the episode. See you by the Fireside,
Dave & Vik
