Hey, thanks for watching! Just a note, we goofed on round one, and moved Omega Red Medium, and not Short. Thankfully, it had a minimal impact on the game. As always, let me know if you see anything else!

[@cjpasman]

Poor Scott got robbed of an activation on Blade on turn 1 as well. He did the bump, ranged attack, pursuit. Grabbed a book and then Bucky went.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Weird how we.missed that

[@joshh8979]

Crimson Dynamo has to declare disruption field when targeted, not after the dice rolls. Seemed like you did it after, unless it was an edit.

[@davidparks3166]

A few have pointed out Blade and Ant Man being placed and forgetting a second action. Pretty sure the same happened with Gwen's second activation. She bumped, punched Omega Red, used the advance from her attack's ability, and that was it. She could have thrown out an impact webbing at least. Great report as always tho!

[@michaelbertrand5522]

Crimson Dynamo needs to spend for Disruption Field before attack dice are rolled. You were rolling it after, which is significantly more powerful

[@AegisbrandStudios]

This was poor communication on our part. Between clips, we had discussed that it was going to be happening, and not communicated properly on camera. The power was always being earmarked for it, but yeah, some instances the chain broke down

[@shadelion13]

I didn't realize Winter Guard had gotten an updated affiliated list. That's really cool.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Yeah, happened during ministravaganza. But if a ninja update, but really a welcome one

[@cjpasman]

I am always happy to see Winter Guard on the table!

[@andersjonsson1508]

Good game and great to see a new face on the channel. Then we again have to point out that Crimson Dynamos Disruption Field is when you get targeted, you can not wait and see dice results and then use it. It gets bonkers broken if you could wait until dice modifications to use it.' I know you play many different characters and teams. When you do, it gets more important to check the character cards for the powers you make use of to get it right. Thanks for the work you put in to the channel. //Cheers!

[@AegisbrandStudios]

This has been commented a couple times, along with being addressed. The problem stemmed from poor built habits of, generally, always using the ability, and getting lazy with the timing chart

[@danielponicke]

Great game! Noticed Gwen couldn’t push strange to safety as he would be blocked by voodoo and in this instance he was placed which is incorrect. It didn’t matter as you still got to target him but might have made it easier for other to attack him

[@weshapenations]

Great vid guys 😁 one note on Omega Reds Drain Life you have to deal damage to be able to remove damage from yourself, it's not just for doing the attack if no damage is delt as you did 👍

[@nigelstrebel9056]

Great match, just a heads up that you don’t explode crits when doing the montesi beams with the updated crisis

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Ah, damn! That is right! Forgot about that.pesky change. Thanks for reminding us

[@profparm]

Love the BR! A few things, in the first round both Blade and Ant-Man only did one action after doing an out-of-action movement (technically ant-man placed w/ 2 actions remaining, didn't have range for an attack, so moved back instead of into range for a punch). Also, Dynamo's rerolling attack dice has to be used when the character is targeted by the attack, so I saw at least once against Strange when he rerolled into 4 hits, you THEN spent 2 power to reroll the dice; you'd have to commit to the power even if the attacker's roll ends up garbage. I imagine w/ his health you still would've done it, but it has a big impact on Dynamo's power usage across the game.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Yeah, a bad habit I found myself in during this period of filming was that it was always something I would do with power, and got lazy with the timing as a result. As for the missing actions, weird how we missed those

[@mindflayer123ify]

love the battle reports, but as a heads up the sponser link in the discription doesnt work. i think you added an extra S at the emd that doesnt belong there

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Thanks for the heads up. I will take a look, as it should have been working

[@Thoadin]

nice game matt where did you get it

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Friend and sponsor of the channel, iWargames

[@martinrodin8236]

did you just forget wg's leadership for the better part of the game? Removing bleed for free sure would have been powerful and would save some dmg/activations

[@AegisbrandStudios]

It happens

[@madmulligan2892]

In minute 47, should Ant-Man have changed size before he got to pick up the book?

[@AegisbrandStudios]

I will review. Though, if memory serves (and this was filmed over a month ago!), I think some steps were taken in the name of expediency, and everything was still capable of being done properly (transforming would have still left him in range to pick up, then continue on)

[@PLVegeta]

Guys, any chansess for a SHIELD game?

[@AegisbrandStudios]

As a matter of fact, yes! Just filmed one on Monday, and it will be out later this month!

[@obyiscushobbyandgaming]

Poor blade had his second action skipped on turn 1 :P

[@mvprindle]

Omega Red moves short. Looks like you were moving him medium.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

Yup. I mentioned that in the pinned post that it was a screw up in the first round. I grabbed a movement tool, and did not catch the error at first

[@mvprindle]

@@AegisbrandStudios my bad, didn't see the pin.

[@AegisbrandStudios]

No worries! I know people miss the pin, so I try to take the time to respond, if someone takes the time to comment! I appreciate you pointing it out, regardless

[@jasonherdman6344]

Why is every other comment a rules correction haha 😂 Loved the vid, don’t love all the nitpicking comments lol

[@AegisbrandStudios]

I suppose there are reasons. I take it in stride, and use it to try and get better going forward
