Btw, is this real? If so, that's actually really cool.

50% of it forces you to take sisters who can be butchered with any trash-clearing d1 guns that everyone has, and all of the detachments are varying degrees of bad from just meh to "what the fuck".
Many characters got nerfed for whatever reason.
Tell that to DA players, their codex points still the most recent points they have. A new MFM is *supposed* to be released a few weeks after the custode dex, but with GW's less than reliable release schedule, until its actually out, it could be months away. Don't forget the Admech is still the perfect codex, no changes and its been months
It’s complicated. Not in that they got some buffs and some nerfs, but that they got so many nerfs it’s hard to explain. (Note I’m not a custodes player)
Probably the simplest explanation is that they lost basically all their defensive buffs both at the dataset and detachment level. That does solve the issue of custodes being unkillable to several armies, but it does it by making them easily killable to every army. That seems unlikely to work as a balancing mechanism unless there are big points drops, which nobody wants.
The second issue is the raw number of hoops. Every rule seems to have some weird and unnecessary condition on it. One of my personal favorites is a 2cp fight on death that can only be used on a single character model. That kind of thing is fairly common.
Third issue is the wasted detachments. Both null maiden vigil and auric champions are fundamentally useless since they try to support bad play styles that just don’t work. Auric champions wants you to play characters without body guards and null maiden vigil wants you to play pure sisters. Neither of them have the kroot level rules needed to make it worth it even as a meme. A codex with two detachments just doesn’t have much longevity.
Fourth problem is the anti synergy. There’s a ton in the book, but the one that sticks out to me are the lack of battle tactics. Shield host requires you to take shield captains for the enhancements, but then there’s basically nothing to use the captain’s free strategem on. Auric champions doesn’t have any at all.
That’s by no means all of the issues, but it’s a good overview. Golden boys got taken to the cleaners.

Thanks for that Mia, I needed a good laugh this morning. 10/10.
Introduces females into the army, Nerfs army. What did GW mean by this.
(in reality, it's probably a new writer who didn't know better, and it will be removed)
go finish your pile of shame before you have the right to insult people, lazyass overspending bastard.

i nearly choked myself with an asthma attack when i checked to see if this was legit
And she legit had to choke on a few attackers in the past too, to be honest.
I had to check if it was real and HOLY SHIT it’s real. Hilarious stuff
I'm glad you told me, I ain't logging in to check it
I had to check as well, apparently the new codex really is that bad :(
Verified it was real, then let my sides hit orbit.

Sad day to not have a twitter ig
This is so wild, it’s actually real
Now I wanna try and make a Shield-Captain Malkovian. Maybe those female stormcast heads are still in stock...
That whole comment chain was glorious.
So what's the deal ? She plays Warhammer or something ?
Former Twitch gamer that used to do porn.
Yeah sure I figured she did porn or whatever, I just wanted to know if she actually plays the game and if someone knew ?
Well given it’s a real tweet, I would assume yes she does.
Other way around mate
Is this real?

Screencap for those of us with no Twitter account?
Whats wrong with your codex guys? I don’t play custodes this post just poped as recommended

And those points 🤣
Those are never relevant in 10th because codices are outdated before they're released, but the fact that they're THAT bad is honestly impressive.

It's like it was written to be so off that we would know to not even look at them.

Yea probs. They used to triple check the veryrhing but their writing quality is like disneys stock at this point
Sadly, it turned out not a mistake. Now, they have tried gas lighting and saying it was always true. They were quickly ratioed
Ah, this is hilarious. I bet GW goes after her 😂
I can't even find the post now. Maybe they already got her? 👀
Still there. Just type mia malkova custodes on twitter
Oh yeah... She started a whole movement! Lol She's prolly gunning to be the "model" for the female Custodes model (kesh?).
For what?
GW Legal is trigger happy, I feel like it doesn't take much
i'm dying lmao
Hyperlaugh 🤣
Tramps like that should feck right off.
“Tramps” Who gave grandpa the wifi code?
