Great show
Been listening for quite awhile, love the show, but I think you all missed a vital aspect of core: narrative grouping on the board. Ballistarii and Dragoons are free range chickens and being core shackled them to a castle because of efficiencies. Thunderwollf Cavalry get core despite being elite, rare units (in lore) because they can ride around with a Wolf Lord on Thunderwolf and benefit from the aura; same for Sanguinary Guard and Blood Angel jump pack characters. Why do so many marine units get core? Because there’s a character that makes sense to go along with them. Castle? Captains/Lts with 24” range bolters. Outriders? Primaris Chaplain on Bike. Vanguard Veterans? Firstborn with jump packs. Any unit without core is most likely that way because there’s no core-aura character in the codex that narratively fits babysitting that unit. It’s not a perfect application and there’s hits-and-misses, but it’s definitely part of “does this get core?” logic.

An excellent podcast and well worth your time. I don’t play 40K as I’m more into the lore but I always listen to the podcast and watch their webcasts on Youtube. These guys are dedicated to 40K and you can definitely tell.
