Chef, mathematics and geometry say that you literally CANNOT move objectives out of the deployment and into the deployment. They are more than 6″ away from the line.
Great game enjoy it very much love farsight glad they pick up the victory ✌️ can’t wait for the next game 🙂
Awwww I haven’t heard a “BEEEEES!” line in a long time. Good throw back Chief.
@chef, considering you need to be within 12” to declare a charge, and within 1” to have a successful charge… an 11 should always be a success, shouldn’t it? Or was there a minus to charge in that situation?
Almost a week now unable to view videos with a timeout error on Android app ;(
Wow, what an amazing game! Great job to all, Tau’va!
Wow. The Menhirs were very silent today. I’ll show myself out now. That was a terrible joke.
Really good game to watch. I really hate Tau shooting (Knight player) so it going up against reanimation was interesting to see.
Well congrats Fletcher! What a game guys, very exciting one and for me I’d say the first upset of the League. I didn’t think the Tau could outscore those Necrons, especially not after having seen the previous low scoring Tau games. Looks like Fletcher picked up some tactics along the way, well done man. Let’s see if you can repeat the upset tricks in the semi’s! Looking forward to the conclusion of Season 1, it’s been a blast so far. Chef, play time is over, the experimental phase is done, no more mistakes now. I wanna see you wear that… Read more »
Great Game! You all heard about Vashtoor i think, and with this Great Model there comes a little Idea, Beard our Iron Warrior, how much you must love this guy? Dont he be, the perfect Demigod for you? 🙂
Be cool if you guys did a montage of all the games before the next round begins
wow what a game.. everything down to a single d6!! well done Fletch
Interesting game, I mean its a good thing that crons can compete on points even while they kill next to nothing and are also tabled but I actually think its a really poor reflection on the balance in 9th that secondaries are used as this kind of band aid. They are used as fake “power’ inflation because GWs rule writers started hitting the crack pipe mid edition and theres no other way to give older factions a chance now without rewriting a load of codices (which means invalidating expensive books they have sold to their customers which they obviously cant… Read more »
I’m halfway in and I’ve had to seek emotional support for fletchers dice rolling
Congrats, Fletch! I like the Necrons, but O’Shovah’s one of my favorite characters.
So, does Farsight have a Khornate Chaos Sword or not? 👹
Great game, impressive win
Come on Fletcher! Honor for the Enclaves!
sorry lads (ladies) but yorkshire is BY far the superior tea.
He makes a ‘mistake’ at the start that causes him to lose the game and dodge Lawrence in the Semi’s……very suspicious Chef!!! 😉
Great game and always interesting to see an unexpected result. Tau had pretty much all the army still standing in the end and still only narrowly scraped together that win.
One on Fletch!!! 👊🏼🔥
Damn Fletch there really was no in between with your rolls. They were either amazing or totally hopeless. Eitherway really fun match to watch especially seeing Kauyons best ability actually being used……oh and the fact your coldstar managed to donkey punch some wraiths.
Well that was quite a game! Wild game to finish out the prelims!
Chef, I’m playing my first game (Tempest) against Tau today with my Necrons. I recognize the odds are heavily stacked against me, especially since I’m relatively new to the game and the other player is not, plus I won’t get the Nephilim secondaries. Any thoughts or advice on how to at least avoid a tabling by turn 3?
Very fun and interesting game to watch and very close too! I didn’t think the Tau were long for this world after turn 2. From a tau perspective I’ve noticed Fletcher has to negotiate enemy units using LoS blocking cover a lot and am wondering if it’d be worth it to consider those tau guns that ignore LoS?
Looking forward to a Tau win here! Sorry Chef any other faction and I’d be rooting for ya.
HUge Plunder in chosing the secundary after hearing the mission. Lets see if Chef can recover from this with the primary points
unneded result with another unnecessary misplay with not measuring the 9″ properly in the end
Been looking forward to this one. Don’t care who wins as long as it’s Tau.
Go Chef. Crush the Tau.
