Another great game
Always fun to see thematic lists but oh man is that ig list terrible
For the people watching, dont be too discouraged about the detachment, its real strength is running up 60+ Kriegers with “Over the Top” (every infantry regiment on the board gets the move! move! move! order) in position, then deep striking Tempestus Scions and their command squads and using your two offensive strategems which really only work for infantry to land a hammer blow. Yes the detachment rule seems counterintuitive, if you run up your infantry you can’t use 2 of your barrages anymore, but your two offensive strats need you to be close, and you need those to land a… Read more »
Oooo, very excited to see old Lawrence running the Death Guard! Never seen this before! 😄
I do love the Krieg aesthetic! Whoever named the hellhounds I salute you! I giggled every time their names popped up on camera 🤣.
Trying to use anti infantry of basilisks and manticores to take down vehicles was never going to work well, they should have killed off the pox walkers and terminators
Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Plaguis the wise?
Hear me out, Spider is a very experienced player but that is not why we had a stomp. Sometimes it comes down to just a bad match-up, sometimes the list you have doesn’t have the teeth to deal with 6 vehicles a monster, and 2 termies with -1 to wound. It’s all fun to bring a fluffy list but please make sure next time both sides have a mathematical chance to hurt each other, cuz the lists have to be comparable in strength. Artillery is already inefficient and paying extra for indirect fire and in the new codex the loss… Read more »
Bard! No Ratlings?!
Mistakes were made. >.>
Even so, you guys had a ton of fun, and so did I watching it. Thanks!
Really cool match and loved seeing the Marshall go to work. Amazing paint jobs especially on the calvary. Thank you as always
Love the paint job and also nice showcase of the Codex.
Think this detachment is better with more more infantery then actually using lot of Artillery.
But understandable that the studio army doesn’t have all possibilities immediately
The armies may be updated, but alas James rolling remains almost the same 😂 great game guys. Fletch smashing it as always down in the dungeon with those krieg
This game inspired me to pick up my brushes again. What Great looking Krieg Models. Deathgaurd too for that matter!
Bard should have gone with the movement in the 1st turn. Reducing deathguard movement is devastating.
I’m pretty sure the new siege rules go. You can still do the other bombardments you just can’t pick a unit within 12
Very gode
Given the aesthetic of the Death Corps of Krieg is WW1 German army, I wonder if the Lord High Marshal should be referred to as ‘Herr Drier’? 😀
the battlefield looks AMAZING!
This game absolutely reeks of narrative feeling. I loved watching every second of this one, well done guys!
Lovely to see the new Kriegers on the board. I think you’d be better off leaning less into artillery and relying on the ‘off the board’ artillery from the detachment rule.
Callous sacrifice at 36-37 minutes seems a bit of an odd choice? Why not just fall back and save your CP.
Great game! Death Guard must be a terrific workplace, since all of the colleagues are friends as well. It warms my heart.
Nice
Really looking forward to watching this, but is the codex review also out today?
Fantastic paint job Fletch. Time to get shoveling!
KRIEG!!!!!!!
