I suspect your trebuchet was failing so spectacularly because it was facing the wrong direction the whole time 😂
I turned it around after misfires to remind us it was out of commission the following turn, which happened twice. If you look during deployment its facing correctly 😎
Makes sense, I figured you knew. Very nice battle report! I always appreciate how aesthetic old world battles are eith the formations and whatnot
@@EricsHobbyBattleReportsThat's actually a brilliant reminder
@@aaronmmarty i thought everybody did it! Surprised so many people were posting about it
I’m spreading the rumor that your “full tilt” video single-handedly relaunched this game.
😎
Its not a rumour if its true 😂
True facts, lol
100% agree. Old hammered talks about BA old GW games too.
Everyone forgets about Evade (p.206) - that pegasus sorc could have probably avoided being pursued into.
Good catch! Thats why i really make batreps, to have the community tutor me on rules i missed in my games 😂
Really loving this 30m battle report. Quick summaries of what happened is a great format.
Love the paintjob on those Bretonnians.
I died a little seeing them laying around the table on their sides
Perfect length for battle reports, I really appreciate the effort that must go into editing and producing these.
These are the best battle reports online. I really appreciate that you summarize it.
I really really appreciate the work that went into this. Getting an entertaining battle report under an hour is a real feat worthy of the grail.
Remember a charging unit moves its full charge distance if the charged unit flee, its not considered a failed charge (Rulebook pg 129). Nice armies!.
Oops! Still unlearning rules from old editions. Good catch
Before I commented it, I checked to find someone else who did. Signal boost! 😊
Best quality battle reports on KZhead. Retro/charming set- the citadel battle mat really takes me back to the 3rd edition rulebook photography. I mostly like that it didn’t take me 3 hours to finish. 35 minutes is the perfect length.
Wonderful battle report! One thing i noticed in the last combat: i don't think the combat bonus for lance stacks with close order. I believe when you are in the lance formation, you are not in the close order formation, so you only get the +1 for lance and not the +1 for lance plus the +1 for close order. I do not think lance is a type of close order formation based on my reading of the lance rules. If I'm wrong, someone please tell me, though, because I would love even more combat res for my knights!
I love how the trebuchet tried to challenge itself by facing the wrong way the entire match. The lady of the Lake would be proud
I know that was kind of amusing. What makes even funnier is successfully hit the enemy
Really enjoyed this. More of a casual basement vibe compared to the big channels. And i really enjoy it. The aesthetics of an old world battle are gorgeous. Takes me back. All the best with the second channel!
Report was terrific and terrific edit. Thank you. Lets us know if you want rule corrections. 😊
Nice video! Black Horror works only on enemy units ; )
Gorgeous paint jobs.
Thank you! 😊
Incredible paintjob guys! as a dark elves player I specially admire that side. Btw I noticed various Inmune to psicology units like the Kbys reacting to a charge by fleeing, but the ITP rule says that flee cannot be chosen as a charge reaction.
Big rules oversight that is having a big impact on the battle: When you flee from a charge out of range, the charge doesn't fail, the chargers still move the full charge move.
Very fun batrep. Didn't expect the DE's to get back into the fight after turn 2!
Great video mate! One of the best battle reports on KZhead! 👌🏻
Appreciate the beautiful terrain, armies, camera work, narration and keeping it sub 1hr. Good job.
Great game... was fun to watch. Can't wait for the third game against you two.
Love your work Eric! Really delightful battle reports/videos, keep up the great work!
Wow! Would love to see your VC in some battle reports!!
Really enjoyed your style of battle report guys, keep up the good work!
SOVL overload. I love both armies.
Pretty sure the dark elf player would have kept its cold one riders's banners. They don't die when they flee anymore, they just give more victory points if you wipe them out (through combat or pursuit). Great game anyway, and best looking army in the (old) world!
fantastic! Much improved from the first battle report! Keep up the good work!
Interesting format with the shortened version 🙂 Wish you the best! 👍🏻
Oh dude sick!! I legit asked you to post a new bret battle report yesterday on your main channel. I like to think you whipped it up in response to that haha
Henri no! 😄 it's fun recognising some of the Knights from the original full tilt video! Looking great and well fought! ⚜️🫡
Haha i love that you remember
Awesome match, and a great format! Look forward to your next video!
So so so happy to see battle reports from you, Eric! Wicked video, loved the Trebuchet but that's been said already 😂 Patiently waiting for more amazing vids from ya, I hope this becomes a more regular thing Cheers bud!
I love this! Excellent battle report. Though it's no wonder the trebuchet had such a piss poor performance, it's facing backwards!
I turned it around after misfires to remind me it was out of commission the following turn. If you look during deployment its facing correctly 😎
I like the clean style of your battle reports. The armies look great too!
gonna be that guy ands say your Unicorn damsel is on the wrong base size, she needs to be on the same size base as the peg knights (40 x 60mm)
Great guys and love this format! I'm sure others have pointed these out, but just in case a few friendly pointers =) 1) Terror check when being charged, not when charging them (unless higher unit strength), & 2) Duke should have moved full distance vs fleeing Kharibdryss, a flee reaction doesn't make the charge a fail.
Great terrain layout! There's actually stuff in the middle of the board!
Which actually breaks game rules...(not fan of that rule)
@bakuchidancer Which rule is that? Honestly curious, I had no idea.
Tow terrain layout rules say no terrain 12" center... Not fan. I'll just ignore it
Great format! Well done guys.
Ok someone correct me if i'm wrong but i think the unicorn must be on a 40x60 base and is considered a monstrous cavalry. I search on the internet not all agree that a unicorn can join a cavalry unit because of the "Clumsy" rule. I think a damsel on unicorn should be able to join a knight unit personally... Great battle report anyway, thanks !
I love the format! So much fun!
Really loved this style of battle report well done!
Throughly enjoyed this battle report not too short not too long and very well narrated look forward to more got me fired up for some old world now great stuff chaps
Great video, good work as always.
Great game - back and forth ! Bretonnians were sealing it early on and dark elves really came back and caught up. !
31:00 I think the lance is blunted if they can't countercharge.
good stuff! Keep em coming!
Great format! We want more!
25:25 The knights outnumber the cold ones by double so even if he got FBIGO, he would have broke.
Wow such a fun game! I've never played fantasy before, but absolutley gripping game. The armies were gorgeous and I want to see the rematch! I love all your videos Eric, I love the variety!
Beautiful game! This is what warhammer should look like!
really enjoyable watch. Other Warhammer channels are way too over the top with cheesy or fake interactions from the host players; you guys were super chill and was a good watch, Thanks for the vid! Im bout to get into warhammer old world, excited to see the revival of it
Awesome stuff!!
Best Battle Report videos. Good job, keep doing it please ^^
Terror tests are only when the terror causing unit charges, there’s no test when you charge them, fear only triggers when you have a higher unit strength, the kor should have made the charge. When you flee/pursue, unlike older editions you don’t roll simultaneously and the pursuer rolls higher you die.now, you roll,your flee, move the fleeing unit, then roll the pursuer, if they make contact they wipe out the fleeing unit, this matters two fold. In your game, as soon as the knights fled through the sorceress, she should have tested for panic , if she held, the knights would slam into her there was no way for them to catch the cold ones even if they rolled a low flee vs a high pursuit roll. Second as it’s measured by models now, it’s possible in certain situations such as fleeing through a unit in your rear, they don’t need to actually roll as high as you do to catch you seeing as they aren’t moving as far.. The grail knights were also blunted when the cold ones followed them up so no lance formation Otherwise loved the format of battle report
What a great battle. Awesome.
So nice report. And really fun battle. There were some really decisive rolls, like the repetition of the leadership of the cold ones knights. I really liked how the charge of the grial knights made it look like the pegasus was drinking from a grial.😅
Two fantastic armies :) great battle report
Love the paintjob on the Kharibdyss! However, being Immune to Psychology, I think it cannot declare Flee as a charge reaction, can it?
Thank you for your videos and editing. I really love this game but don't have the 2 hours it takes to watch other people's videos
more bretonnia pls! I watch this while painting my Knights. very good Inspiration!
Such a joy to see a battle report that is professional and well presented compared to the other more well known content "creators" out there. Anyway, great job. Looking forward to more good sir. Have to also mention the wonderful paint jobs. Fantastic!
A very nice battle report in good quality and length.
Very enjoyable thank you
Hell yeah brotha!! ❤
❤️
Cool to see the Mordheim ruined tower that you made a video on seeing the tabletop!
Sweet BR and amazing painted armies
Those cold ones look fantastic.
Great battle report, I love Your new chanel.
Very Cool!
Good game, and nice looking models and table. lots of old skool metal brets.
when your knights in Lance formation lose a combat, their Lance is "blunted" and lose Lance formation.
I hope to see a kill team battle on your spaceship interior piece after this!
Pretty sure that lone knight errant could not have rallied, as the unit had suffered "insurmountable losses". :)
new listener liked and subscribed thanks for doing
Great channel!
Great game!
"If a fleeing unit is RUN DOWN by an enemy unit, or if a unit is DESTROYED in combat by an enemy unit, its standard is claimed as a trophy." You no longer claim banners by breaking.
Very nice! Did you craft the castle walls and gatehouse yourself?
Nice video:) ur necromunda terrain from ur previous video looks really cool and I do hope u gonna make a battle report with it:)
That's the plan!
Mmm snack sized batrep, quicker to eat yet just as nourishing. Lovely armies, look forward to the next game.
Much prefer this style of battle report to a lot of what's out there. Understanding the players thoughts and decisions rather than 4 hours of watching people roll dice, with no clear view/understanding of what's going on
Thanks, i tried hard to make it both fun to watch and easy to follow. Still lots to improve but I’m glad you like the direction I’m going
@@EricsHobbyBattleReports Yea I think this style of bat-rep is way more consise than those ones I see alot of for 40k. It would be cool to see you do dynamic positioning of models for like pre-gams stills. I think the flatness of the board kind of makes that slightly difficult though. Side-note it feels way more personal seeing you play your army having watched you build it and apply your lore to it's creation, really cool. Also glad you seemed to have more fun playing this one than the last with the tanky tomb dragon hogging that one game.
Dark Elves look amazing.
That was a fun game
Old warhammer forever
At 29:30, that Kharibdis was not allowed to flee as it is immune to psychology. Weirdly, being immune to psychology now makes it so you cannot choose to flee. Pretty big impact t here as well! Page 171
A victory for Bretonnia! The Dark Elves came with a solid force of slavers keen to take many Bretonnias back to Naggorth. Knights for their entertainment in their arenas, peasent workers for their mines and factories and no doubt the most beautiful noble maidens for their harems of pleasure. And what they leave with? Nothing! Not only did most of them die in their evil attempt, they lost a 1000 year old Sorceress in the process! Stulking back to their waiting ships, 3 nobles, a Lord and 2 monsters return, the rest of their foul party dead and not a single slave or piece of treasure to show for it. And the Bretonnians? 1 Knights Errant has earned his spurs and will have many tales to tell in the taverns on how, alone and flying the banner of the army, he charged the Elven nobles! The Lady survived along with the Duke and his trusty Griffon, both ready to defend the Realm again and again. And though the field is littered with the bodies of many peasants and Knights, each one or them will have songs sung about them! Especially the Brave bowman, standing face to face with hell itself, stood their ground to buy time for their Lord and Saints, the Grail Knights, to stave off the rest of the dark host!
Great game, I was torn, as a Dark Elf player, wanting to root for them but also wanting Eric to win.
Two things: 1) great battle report, I prefer the "turn summary" style and 2) finish that titan there please!
When the “subscriber ping” button played at the beginning I swore my firearm was beeping 😭
Yassssssss! Thank you Eric!!!! Do you have any tips on panting some old Warhammer Nippon models? I just sloted them in their bases. I am Thing sand for base and white white paint for that retro look. What do you think?
What minis are you using? Send me some pics!
My first instinct is to do a paint scheme that gives a nod to white scars !
unsolicited opinion, nippon means samurai cant go wrong with a red and black scheme
@@EricsHobbyBattleReports I am using some old school citadel minis some of which actually came with rules in the box.
You do not take a terror check when you charge a terror causing unit. Only when they charge you.
I just like how nobles of each faction overrun commoners of another and that is the true for both of them😂
YEEEESSSS!!!!!
Your knight with the red and yellow scheme with a black diagonal bar across the shield, was that chosen as a mark of bastardy or just a cool colour scheme? Love the video btw, first one of yours I've seen.
Yeah hes a bastard. If you watch my Full Tilt video theres a knight with a bend sinister called Georges Le Batard
@@EricsHobbyBattleReports Cool! That one's next!
Great match, hope to watch more soon. Love the format, avoid the 3 hour raw dumps that other channels drop, this you can sit down and enjoy easily. Hope you will post more frequent in the future, really liking your battlereps
Nice
A lone character is considered Skirmishing, therefore has los and can charge in any direction. A skirmishing unit, which would also include the Peg Knights, have the same. The Dark Elf on the Manticore and Sorceress on Dark Peg have the same but couldn't play the movement shenanigans shown here. They would have been charged by your Duke on Hypogryph, and/or the Peg Knights on several occasions. Many rules from past editions have changed in ToW ;)
The pegasus knights do have 360 line of sight, and used it to charge the cold one riders , but the hippogriff does not, since it is a leviathan.
360 LOS doesnt apply to monsters so it's a no go on the big boys. Also, it's worth noting that peg knights only get 360 in skirmish (since they can also be deployed in lance)
Don't you stop when you hit as fleeing unit on the charge?
Need to make models for cast spells. The little plastic thing for the vortex was very 'what a pity' lying on the table.
Agreed, im on it
I’d like to find something printable, especially for the Column of Crystal.
Yeah like those fireball templates he made in an early video, those were perfect
