Those Greenwing Dark Angels look so mint!
Could we have a future painting tutorial on Fletcher’s Green Armor recipe? <3
Well actually…..Wilkinson Sword… Began in 1772 and were a famed London Gun, Sword and Bayonet Manufacturer….well before they started selling shaving razors
I keep hearing “Jazz Ale”, which sounds like the sort of fun drink a Dark Angel would absolutely hate!
Retreat brothers that Dark Mech IPA is far too flavourful and hoppy!
You are no fool mr Beard Those kastallen robots do have a 4+ fnp with the datasmith leading them. Many blessings to the dark omnisssiah!
Amazing game! I haven’t laughed this much at a bat rep for ages 🤣. Sadly I find chaplains a bit disappointing in combat at the moment. Instead of bashing enemies aside with their crozius, they boop them on the nose instead it seems 😂.
surely the Landspeeder Vengences are the Vengi Bros
I’m a fan of these big batreps. I like this that you let yourselves bend the rules to include Vashtor. Fits in perfectly 🤟
What a pair! I need a “sustained” mug for my morning coffee 😂
First of all: I love the Dark Mechanicus army, great job. 🙂
I have a question: How did the deathwing knights use the stratagem “Heroic Intervention” after they were battle shocked in round 1 by “Rad-Bombardment”? Is there any special rule for DA that I missed?
Can I just say, when the graphics overlaid “BECAUSE HE DOESN’T” (that must have been @chef in the editing room? – if so, well played sir) over the top of Beard’s FNP real time error, I lost it. Tears. Who knew 40k could bring such comedic gold.
Another excellent battle report as per usual, and definitely one of your funniest to date! The exclamations of “MY MONKEH!” amids the rest of the circus that was going on never ceaseed to elicit a chuckle.
I always love a Beard and Bard game and this must be one of your best! 😀
god i love watching Beard vs Bard, it’s always such a clownfiesta and it’s perfect!
‘My Monkey!’ T-shirt please
Hahaha, @Beard, I spat my tea out and just cracked up with your: “Vashtorr shoot now. Vashtorr sad” skit! 😂😂😂
Glorious
While overall fun, and these are not fortunately that serious of engagements, that FNP mistake really did put a hamper on watching this game for me as it just had such a massive impact on the flow of everything.
Not to bash anyone, innocent mistakes happen, but it was so frustrating to see how much resources James had to put to overcome that and how it affected other decisions.
“If a monkey decides to shave his beard, where… where does he stop? At the knees? Lower back? Shoulders?” asked Beard in a manic manner.
We need a fight between the Necrons and Admech to fight over an ancient piece of technology…. The first toaster.
Mother…. Beard is playing with his monkey again!
Excellent battle report. One of the funniest.

Lets go Vashy!
Blimey! A behemoth of a Beard/Bard batrep! Bards big boys battle to beat back Beard’s blasphemous beings! Belligerent black-clad biker’s bolters blam Belisarius B’stard’s buzzing butchers but bemone balistarii blasting back!
As a DA player with a game this evening – Bard’s “Vengeance is a dish best served with a land speeder” will be said as many times as it remains alive.
I’m playing Knights later, so probably not that long.
Love the bad mech army you guys have but god it gets my hopes up every time I read dark mechanicum
Amazing. Beard’s list read got me 😂
CSM VS CSM! LETS GOOCSM vs Chaos, lets gooooo
6000 points? That’s a paltry offering lol. Do 40k and make it thematic 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh yeah baby! Loving these larger BatReps. Good job guys! 💪🏼
This is gonna be long.
