Cracking Bat Rep and Beard looking smooth (ish) needed to double check it was you.
Keep being fabulous
Turn 1 caught cheating Stig! You can’t reroll all those 2s from can you? Reroll happen before modifiers.
another quality bat rep lads. Hey B-Bone im not normally one to point out rules errors but the only rule error I would point out is the corvus hammer on the black knights because everyone always gets it wrong. A 6 to wound is d3 wounds not d3 damage. Wouldnt have made any difference to the outcome of the game just an easy misread of a rule.
Great video!
The rules errors ruins it a bit for me. But still enjoyable.
Really enjoyed the game, as I enjoy every game but dayuuuuuum this game was sort of dead in the water after that turn one shooting. You guys have really fine tuned the Ravenwing wing list now, it might not be worthy of a tactica but I do think the list on the otherside of it really needs some teeth to hold it’s own. Nonetheless, as ever it was awesome!
Well done Young Benjamin 😀
@Stig I have to ask this, as it bothers me a great deal.
Why do you bring a Dominus and the Cawl in the same list, for the same ? Why not another Enginseer to save a bit on the HQ part of the list? It’s not the first time I recall you doing so. It’s redundant, unfortunately in the costly points-wise manner, and gives you nothing really. Cawl does everything (and more) Dominus can do, but better.
Fun game but man, I have to agree with Beardish in his post match summary: whoever went first was almost guaranteed to win with how much brutal shooting was on the table. Glad for young Benjamin to hoist an after match tankard in victory. Stig, you at least have the distinction of having the best beard on the channel now!
Loved your rendition of ‘Swords of Caliban’. When can we expect a full release of that song 😀
Interrogator idiot was the joke of the game. Great work guys! Beards narration was gold!
Great game as always guys. Hopefully we will see the greenwing at some point as a Dark Angels player I would love to see a full Dark Angels army in the future ?.
And Bone remember the Heavenfall Blade also gives one extra attack so the Talonmaster should have had 5 attacks not 4…that blade makes him a beast in combat.
3 dark talons, and 12 black knight’s with the vigilus rules are actually a pretty savage pill for Ad-mech to swallow. I would almost say that that combination of Dark Angels could actually be used in a tactica. And no real place for admech to hide either – ouch! Where are enclosed ruins when you need them? 😉
Fun game to watch, though. Good laughs. Always fun to see Stig make an appearance.
No leadership tests for the mech guys (robots and goons)
Loved the idea of Dark Angels having to be good because the scouts are around, brilliant!
Turn 1 killed the stig, such a brutal first shooting phase by the heretic angels. It was hard to come back from that with those penalties to hit. Good try though.
Ahhh love me some TTT battle reps! Can we get one with Lady Beard and his faithful ladies?! Seriously considering getting a sister army…
Great games, the new videos are coming really quickly now. Watching this one it feels like you would have both been better not taking the detachments and using CP else where or having some different models/load outs.
Question: if you heroic intervene into a unit that didn’t charge, does that protect the intervening unit from being attacked in the same way when you heroic intervene with a unit into a charging unit?
you still could have rerolled the two twos on the dark talons rift cannon for it is BS 3 and as you said, modifiers happen after.
The shooting of the punchy bots shouldn’t have been reset
Re-rolls happen before modifiers, a Dark Talon normally hits on 3’s so 2’s were eligible for a re-roll
The heavy gives you -1 and the strafing run gives you +1 so they cancel each other out and your hitting on 3’s like they should be normally
If they didn’t have strafing run and you were hitting on 4’s you wouldn’t be able to re-roll 3’s
Also Stig you can’t split fire with an Icarus Array, its all one weapon so you have to pick one target
I see you followed my advice and sacrificed a goat Bone! Much better rolling so far. (though I’m only halfway through, hopefully I didn’t speak too soon)
Great Match! But shouldn’t Cawl have attacked before the Talonmaster?
Definitely need more of Stig’s Admech on the channel though!
