Fantastic quality for the Batreps and helping explain the tactics and ideas for each thing is super cool in trying to understand what's happening and has helped me point out things to new players as well. One thing to note as well, cavalry models can't use the shielding rule.

@@twotreesgaming Agreed, everyone thinks the survival instinct is her big weakness, but I think it's the 0 might. I've played many games with her. Not once has she ran away. Died plenty, but that will has been enough to keep her around. I've had the best luck keeping her lurking picking off stragglers. I try not to throw her into a big fight unless I can get one of my banners nearby. For me, a real head scratcher is bringing an orc shaman along. minor hero who can only help half my army is not really what I want to be spending points on.

Really enjoyed the batrep. Only suggestion I have to make it better atm would be to reverse the numbering system on the might or rename it to might spent (as to me 0/9 this reads more of 0 left and 9/9 means you still have all nine). Same potentially with the deaths although you'd then need to rename it to models left. This one isn't so bad and it is very much personal preference over anything else. Kepp up the good work and looking forward to watching more
@twotreesgaming Жыл бұрын
Very good suggestion- it shall be Might spent from hence forth! (Although I've already finished the next couple of bat reps, but soon after that..!) I think for kills I'll leave it so as not to confuse at this point, but I understand where you're coming from- could see it as kills or models remaining... Thanks so much for watching!

Hi guys, I'm new and self taught and play solo. Your video is very clear to follow along with . Fantastic job!! Awesome editing and production. Question - who is the two handed weapons? What Weapon? And are pikes two handed? (I was told they are NOT) Please explain so I can learn more. Thanks a million Mikey V.
@twotreesgaming Жыл бұрын
Hi Mikey, thank you! My hope is to do a beginner friendly video at some point with explainers. For two-handed weapons- some of the orcs and half the uruk-hai are armed with them. They've paid points to have them in addition to their regular weapons so may choose to use them or not (some profiles have only two-handed weapons and so must use them). When using a two-handed weapon, you get -1 to the Duel roll with those attacks but then +1 To Wound when making Strikes. You're often better to go one handed unless you also have a regular weapon in the fight! Pikes are not "two-handed weapons" even though they require two hands to carry, they have their own separate section and are basically spears that can fight through two warriors instead of one.
