It was really nice to watch how happy Lawrence was playing the Flesh Tearers. I always love to play against someone who is super proud of their army

Could Lawrence, have declared overwatch, with Sangiunary guard, dropped the 1 wound bloodthirster and then overwatched the deamonettes?

I have only one question *****LAWRENCE HAVE YOU READ/SEEN THE JAPANESE MANGA BERSERK!!!!!****

You would love it, I daresay you have probably heard of it but if not go bathe yourself in its massacasristic brutal savagery!!!

Wow…three mighty greater daemons wiped out for little effort…the daemons shouldn’t have even bothered turning up.
That poor Bloodthirster was the most disappointing thing I’ve ever seen. 🙁

Super fun game, guys! As always… I try paint with your games in the background, but you guys are so dang entertaining, I completely lose focus on my Angel’s of Redemption and become fixated on your game!

Questions for Rules bods out there. On inceptor overcharge should you not have to allocate which model is shooting when allocating the number of shots (when doing them 1 by 1). So if 1 dies you don’t get to pick which model is removed (i.e. the closest) but the one you were rolling for specifically (which could have been the middle of the unit for example) Or am I getting my order of operations wrong? A good one to know as we will be seeing a lot of these guys once we can play games again, and It is really… Read more »

To answer your last question, Lawrence: everything!

Oh yeah and great game, usual accolades etc.

I was hoping Chef would bring his Necrons. I really think that would be a far trickier game for the Spiderling to handle. Lawrence, do TTT sell a muscle vest? If so, please do model it for the next report. Let the guns do the talking.

Outstanding battle report, great to see the new army in action and some greater daemons on the table. You know who I feel sorry for though? Artemis, he’s clearly been usurped as Spiders favourite Space Marine 😕

Thank you guys, as always top notch show.
Chef, I would especially like to thank you for showcasing off more than nurgle and slaanesh, any chance of a deeper look at Khorne and tzeentch in the future?
And I guess you may be as happy as me to see Bel’akor returning?

Well didn’t this game have everything! Lot of love for their armies from both players, and both of you commanded them very well. On top of that it had a great narrative and a damn close result. Who can ask for more?
(The new Flesh Tearers are such a great addition to the channel btw.)

Truly one of the best games I’ve ever watched, it was a nice blend of thematic and technical play. It’s a nice change of pace from the B&B games which i love because of the chemistry between those two although their tactics are really coming along as well.

Great game but a little spoilt by too much analysis as to who might win at the end.It loses the narrative feel with math-Hammer.Can you just play it out and explain after..for those of us non-tourney fans who don’t want each option dissected but want to see the game in its purest form
I sound very whiny I know but hope you get my point at least
Love you
Love your work x

Saying it was an AMAZING GAME just would not make it justice. It was THE MOST OUTSTANDING GAME OF 2021. The Flesh Tearers are just so thematic and great, Spider and Fletcher really did the most terrific paint job.

Hey guys, in regards to the Inceptors overcharging. The way I play it, I role for the entire unit at once and then randomly allocate all the ones I role. E.g. lets say I role 3 ones and there are 5 in the unit, I role 3 d6, rerolling sixes to see who rolled those ones. It is not the cleanest way , but it saves a lot of time.

Couldn’t see where the librarian was but it’s important to remember Null Zone removes all invun saves including friendly models.

Not that it mattered with the chaplain but good to know for the future.

Enjoying the game so far, flesh tearers look amazing. 👍🏻
In daemon turn two when spider overwatch fires the inceptors im pretty sure you need to allocate shooting one model at a time and roll for it. You mentioned in in turn one shooting with a reference to coherence. However, this wasnt done for the overwatch and suddenly it was the two closest models that died increasing the charge for bloodthirster rather than allocating a model then firing it.
We’ll have to see it it makes a difference in the end.

Great battle! So many good moments! I’m imagining Captain Bale seeing Azkael being swallowed whole, saying hell no and literally shredding open the Unclean One’s stomach to pull Azkael back out. Azkael stands up, shakes some unclean ichor off of his crozius and then gives Bale a respectful nod. Very badass!

Transhuman is only for the shooting phase? The old transhuman pre codex change was for both but not the current one.

I like to think that this battle was a last stand of the flesh tearers against in a long desperate campaign against the demonic incursion, hence why the army was so elite and why there were all the heroes there.

Just a note on the cocked dice (I haven’t finished the batrep yet). We play a bunch of different games, from the various flavours of 40k, to D&D, to board games. We noticed… uneven application of cocked dice. It was never a huge deal, but every once in a while there’d be a cocked eyebrow (🤪) at a cocked dice which favoured someone in one way or another and which might or might not have been more cocked than a dice which wasn’t rerolled. There was… uncertainty. So in the interests of removing uncertainty, maintaining a happy atmosphere, and heading… Read more »

Do incursors not have the 12 inch deep strike bubble or is that only infiltrators?

Great game! However, just a thing for future games Chef. Null zone is units within 6, so you can take the saves on the daemonettes within null zone range first, and once they die, your invulnerable is active again. This is similar how you can take saves on models in cover first.

GW could fix the overcharge jank by making the player roll a d6 for each model overcharging, for every 1 the player rolls a model that attempted to overcharge dies after their unit shoots, that would allow you to at least shoot with your model before it dies and cut down on how lethal overcharging is to units with multiple shot weapons..

There’ve been some great games on here recently, but *that* was the best in ages. Some really cinematic moments. I thought it was curtains for you Mr Spider, but that null zone going off, oof! Thanks so much to you both, love it.
Perhaps there’s a tie-in opportunity to be had with Tiptree here? They make some pretty deluxe marmalades. Get them to whip you one up out of a superheated gas of ions and free electrons and boom, plasmalade! Gonna need some thick toast. I hope to see this innovative product in the TT shop soon.

Null Zone affects friendly units as well, so it could be that your Chaplain doesn’t actually have his Rosarius save in turn 2 depending how close the Libby is. As to suping your list up Lawrence, while I do very much like the +2 move ancient relic, the thing is I wouldn’t take out the chaplain. Because in terms of an ‘all comers’ I think it’s better to have the +2 charge because it at least allows you to deep strike + charge sang guard, but at the drawback of not being able to a) chapter master them or b)… Read more »

Super quick rules catch, the +1 damage exalted ability is for all weapon profiles. Which means the hellfire breath would’ve been damage 2 – love the report guys!!! DAEMONS
