Our new narrative series is here!!  This is part one of a 6 part Crusade following the rampage of WAAGGHHH Skulldagga!!  Rampaging through the Galaxy, the warpath of Skulldagga Teefsmasha’s Clan treads ferociously towards the perimeter walls of Fort Condor.  This bastion of humanity has stood vigil for centuries guarded by the brave soldiers of the Albion Raptors fending off countless threats without a breach…but can they withstand the unending green tide!?

Nothing beats an Imperial Guard narrative battle!

Awesome stuff! Love the story, the characters and the banter you guys bring to these reports.

I hope that Tempestor Prime Hector Slade and Sgt Barrett turn up in a ride of the Valkyries in a later report. Perhaps escorting the most venerable ork hunter in the galaxy……Commissar Yarrick.

Question on using the Gunnery Experts re-roll on the Basilisk. I believe that you can select to re-roll one of the two and pick the highest, so you might as well alway pick the lower and fish for a 6.

Hay guys just thought you should know that on my computer I can’t see this film. All I see is the youtub link. I have treied several diffrent ways to fix it on my end and end the end I just had to go to youtub to watch this glorious film. Thanks for all the hard work and have a great day.

An odd one, but can you do a tutorial for the explosions/smoke you use? They’re such a great way of adding theme to a board but also good to have with you if you turn up to the club and you’re only left with Goblin Green hills

Fort Condor?! Please tell me that was intentional FF7 reference, that would tickle my nerdly bits and totally make my day.

I’m a big fan of all your videos but this is a definite standout favourite. I’m looking forward to the next in the series.

Looks to be the beginning of an incredible series. These narrative batreps really lean into your strengths as a channel, and your excitement is palpable through the screen.
In a world of mostly suck, you folks continue to be a font of joy. Cheers.

I was wondering if it’d be 40K or Sigmar today, but I was not expecting Crusade! First time I’ve watched one of these on TT, I’m excited to see how it goes!

In my opinion the Warboss on Bike should also have both Waaaghs and the Warboss Aura. It’s Forgeworld its rules should be bonkers. Change my mind!😬

Amazing, I love narrative crusade games. Please tell me Votann are part of this as they are perfect for a slow grow at the moment as they only have limited models out. 🙂

Fort Condor??? Has someone got a love for FF7? I LOVE IT. Glad you are doing a crusade campaign instead of a general narrative, nice to see the swap up. Cheers lads and lasses!

Everyone cheering on the greenskins…. pathetic.

FOR THE EMPEROR! (as a new player to the hobby and collecting IMPERIAL GUARD, kinda obvious)
