What happened to the on-video rankings @Chef? Due to life I’m always going to be watching the league reports a while after release and the only way to see the “ranking at the time of the current league report” was the one in the video 🙂

I love that Lawrence is the ultimate good sport.
About 38:50 could have easily rerolled a dice that’s sitting on some lichen/weeds. It definitely wasn’t laying flat and a lot of players would have called it cocked and rerolled it. He just sees it’s probably a 2 and keeps the miss.
The world needs more Lawrences at the tabletop.

Well done team, i had a very similar and equally glorious experience with my green fellas recently in my first post codex outing. I feel offering any advice would be at least unwelcome and most likely wrong BUT your fellas forgot to be good to their muvvas. Maybe try that?

Dang beard that was some massively unlucky rolling, at least that’s it out the way for awhile…right? Solid tactical play from Lawrence as usual, have to say glad you stuck to your guns and didn’t concede in round 2, lesser men would have 😛

Ah Beard you made 2 mistakes with the weapons.
the booster blasters have 4 burners each and the bikes have 2 dakka guns each.

i have simpathy for you as these are mistakes i used to make, they don’t point it out very well in the codex….
imagine how many kills you could have got with the burnas when overwatching with 3x booster blasters
3x4xd6 automatic hits

What a fun fun battle. Man Beard I really thought you had him 🙂 Thank you for showcasing both armies so well!
Do you guys have any of the new ork models from the beast snagga box? Squighog boys, that kind of thing?

those grey knights are nasty! tough game, but I think you hit the nail on the head beard, coming out a bit too aggressive turn 1. I think if you played that bit a little differently and had a little more luck with the dice, this could’ve been a lot closer. great game!!

The orks might have lost, but boy did they hit hard on turn two

Cool game! My poor orks 🙁 Beard, at the end with your warboss around the 1:30 mark, you would have totally killed that Dread. Your warboss has Brutal but Cunnin which would have given him more attacks after the two failed hits, wounds, and Spider’s saves, and you do mortal wounds on the charge with your relic. Wouldn’t have mattered with the overall points, but you forgot about both your warlord trait and relic on him, so he was basically just a normal warboss lol Ork heroes are the best!

When doing the damage to the vehicle around the 48 minute mark it looks like you applied the damage order wrong as Mortal Wounds are applied at the end. So the first two dice did seven damage (and then you applied the mortal wound to kill it) and then rolled another die of damage. Should of been the 7 damage, rolled another dice to over kill it and the last step would of been to apply the Mortal Wound.

Ooh. Now this is interesting, just picked up the Ork and Grey Knight codexes (have at it grammar guys) – am leaning more towards the GK. Mainly as this is a distraction while I wait for new chaos codex, and that just feels like it makes sense. In the nemesis sense. Haha
