Aeldari vs Necrons, Warhammer 40k battle report

[@leeksveeks4572]

That Eldar paint scheme is 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@thepit40k]

It really is ! 😮

[@kazkorianor]

I mean I think it was yellow

[@pinkyfull]

Just thinking about the masking required makes my head hurt and my heart swoon.

[@JRFO292]

You could say it's a sweet painting 😂

[@jibjibs9401]

@@kazkorianorIt’s the honeycomb that makes it good

[@E1drad_]

Probably the best looking Eldar I've seen in a while. Fantastic stuff.

[@efzmonkey]

Probably the most rerolls I've ever seen in a game. I'm glad they got rid of rerolls this edition! 😄

[@RobinJohnstonphotography]

Some Craftworld graphic designer from the 80’s has gone wild on those jet bikes.

[@DavidLainchbury]

Just a rules thing, a Warlock Skyrunner gives his Unit's weapons [Ignores Cover] he doesn't pick a unit to not get cover, Vypers take away the Benefit of Cover from one unit that they have hit during that Shooting Phase. The Phoenix Gem doesn't deny Assasination, but you can potentially score it twice from the same Character (kill them in the shooting phase, they get back up, then charge and kill them in the fight phase) A great game report guys, I really enjoyed it!

[@jim4549]

Love your channel Winters. You can tell the love you put in with your terrian.Especially like watching the group play. Just watched an old one with Chewy, Say Hi Paul and the Claw. Miss those guys.

[@combatwombat2134]

That Eldar army is absolutely striking, such an excellent set of painted models; very visually appealing. Thanks for this, Winters; just about to sit down to do some painting myself.

[@redrichmond8485]

AMAZING Eldar paint, but also that Eldar ruin terrain is smokin. I'm not a big fan of yellow as a color, but the yellows in both armies makes it feel like these two have been enemies since their earliest days during the War in Heaven. Really great stuff.

[@skarnak1]

actually, in most cases, you still get assassinate even if the opponent ressurects the character, no matter how they ressurect the character. Unless something specifically says otherwise.

[@andrewt9128]

I was thinking the same thing

[@revenant7734]

Not in most cases. In all cases. It’s actually written on the mission card.

[@ijskender]

The Eldar paint scheme..... beehive style.... wooooow.......

[@euansmith3699]

That paint job on the Scout Bikers is amazing; almost too effective 😄 18:33 From what I understand, the Fate Die has to be expended before the saves are rolled; so, not take-backsies. Normally, I root for Winters to win; but that Space Elf just looks so cool. Go, Pointy Ears!

[@The_Captain40k]

So you can roll the dice one at a time, you don't have to roll them all at once. Hence why you can save one fate dice for the last save.

[@Vichyssoise1000]

That terrain, and the effort that has gone into laying is out is fire. You and StrikingScorpion are the leaders in this. 😀

[@MrKurtank]

The most enjoyable game I've watched, and that's without my usual faves of Sultan and Stylus. Welcome, Captain, to my updated favourites list.

[@skarnak1]

At around 1:00:00, the technomancer would have gotten feel no pain saves against the precision shots, as he was leading a unit at the time. Mind you, he still might have died, but he would have gotten the fnp saves

[@jayjeffer]

And the normal saves should have been made agaisnt the bodyguard units ++4, then the technos FnP. Precsion only does damage to the character after weapons successfully wounds the attached unit but no 4 ups were made so no change of result anyways :P

[@FarseerB1rdy]

Pretty certain Fire Prisms are S18 on their main beam. They'd have been wounding Doomatalkers on a 2+?

[@joshuadixon979]

Absolutely, great video buuut alot was done incorrectly the entire match..

[@johnbattyll6874]

Looking forward to seeing how this pans out.

[@guyincognito959]

The armies and terrain look gorgeous!

[@91elpiris]

What a game. Props to the eldar player for the thematic list and amazing paint job.

[@ericsmith9212]

Fantastic battle report! That Eldar army is thematic and very well painted.

[@noirceuillesombre3472]

GREAT paint. Immersive. Brilliant 👊😎

[@waynegray6278]

Cracking game! Clutch invuln saves, maxing shot rolls, some real hard thought decision making. Had it all!

[@mrphgil974]

That re-roll everything on the doomstalkers is ridiculous

[@TerpeneProfile1]

A lot of love on that Eldar paint job

[@edotcom7]

Have I missed something from about 20 minutes in how is the viper and the wind riders getting lethal hits?

[@rinaskela]

16:55 you can't move shoot move if you have no target to shoot😅

[@JamesBrown-xb7yi]

Do u have a list for these armies they look fun

[@noapteapestrada7139]

Don't the canoptek spiders have a 6+ FNP aura for vehicles ?

[@jesseraen4172]

Unbelievable paint scheme on the Eldar, the beehive is standout but the dazzle camo squad is great too!

[@tyger40k]

fantastic battle, gentlemen!

[@daemonnexusknight]

Very close game there! And both armies are lovely!

[@MosnaRawr]

Would the shining spears be better if the farseer was giving them re-rolls to hit?

[@SleepySack]

The board looks amazing!

[@eyedestroyeverything9953]

That elder army is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@lyinarbaeldeth2456]

Me: Ooh, I don't recognize that thumbnail. New Winters? Yay, new Winters!

[@WraithRaider]

Brilliant game and down to the wire is is always great. I can't find the rule, but I'm sure killing a character counts for assassinate even if he comes back. The terrain on this one was interesting, having that massive piece in the middle made for some interesting tactical choices.

[@lavrence3272]

Should the doomstalker still have had the rerolls. The check for canaptek court is at the begining of each round?

[@lavrence3272]

Oops its beginning of phase

[@XvShadowsvX]

Was the eldar guy forgetting about eldritch storm on his farseer?

[@patriotsfan27]

Amazing paint job on the Aeldari. They look like wasps!

[@Batrepjusz-ul4dx]

Pointy Fists looking impressive. EDIT: Cool game, GG.

[@rgbminiatures]

Beautiful Eldar army!

[@zHawkC]

I love seeing Eldar die, even beautifully painted ones like these! Winters rolls were insane this game but the last few turns of invuln saves from the Eldar kept them going and almost made up for it. You can take necron warriors in units of 10 still right? Feel like 2x10 and 1x20 is way better when you're tasking them with objective babysitting. Great bat rep as per usual Winters and another good guest. Finally, are we ever going to see my bois the Ad Mech ever again? It's been so long. I know they're gutter tier but you could match them up against another weaker army for a fun game. Seeing these two great armies with all their abilities and re-rolls makes me jealous.

[@mischa3726]

just a minor thing: spiders give vehicles a 6+fnp (and everything else a 4+fnp against psychic). since they are vehicles they also get that 6+ fnp.

[@kingfield99]

Just a thought, but with these rare draws, perhaps the side with most points left on the board could be considered the 'winner'.

[@motorhole]

I played that 2 c'tan, 3 wraith with technomancer list a few weeks back with a kooky marine list. Needless to say, got absolutely minced.

[@Brother-Dan]

Xenos killing xenos makes this battle brother happy..... Keep up the good work winters

[@swabilius]

Stunning paint jobs

[@GrimgorRulez]

Those Aeldari are BEAUTIFUL.

[@skarnak1]

I like the painting pattern on the Aeldari army. How did you do that honeycomb pattern on them?

[@The_Captain40k]

Stencil, airbrush, and tears

[@redbeardie]

Fantastic games thanks guys!

[@otumanienie]

Necron color scheme is really nice;D

[@skarnak1]

So what army does the Captain play in The Old World? I am curious.

[@The_Captain40k]

All of them! But goblins at the moment

[@Dethectic]

I came here for the Necrons, but damn those Eldar looks amazing 🤘

[@neshirst-ashuach1881]

Oh wow, if the Eldar ppayer had remembered to snipe out the technomancer before shooting the wraiths, that would've got a couple more, maybe even got the unit!

[@johnpimbley5315]

Great game chaps! Winters, I would recommend Gauss Immortals, especially with Plasmancer! They will put some serious work in for the Canoptek court!👍

[@skarnak1]

and led by an overlord, so you can do the strategm to give them devestating wounds for free once a turn. in such a case, the tesla carbines might work better, as every 5+ to hit will be 3 hits with the plasmancer. And odds are you'll get a few 6's on the wound rolls.

[@TomtenPim]

You can't do that anymore, only the plasmancer will get Dev Wounds now.@@skarnak1

[@StuartHarvey-rh3sl]

I think a draw was a decent result, I thought it was going to be all Eldar after the first turn, really enjoyed the game 👍🏻👍🏻

[@nomis19821982]

that paint scheme yeesh cool but must be tough

[@savagex466-qt1io]

Did you use a stencil to paint those hexagons on the elder army ? Looks awsome !

[@The_Captain40k]

Yeah a stencil and an airbrush.

[@zHawkC]

@@The_Captain40k Is that fairly easy to do? Sounds like you can get amazing results without much stress that way. Btw I love how the two fire prisms are mirrored colour wise, looks fantastic!

[@The_Captain40k]

@@zHawkC unfortunately the paint does have a tendency of leaking under the stencils so I end up having to do a lot of clean up

[@savagex466-qt1io]

Hmmm if you could only master the less clean up. Regardless they look so awsome ! Well done man well done@@The_Captain40k

[@rritchie4449]

Beautiful eldar

[@megamarkread]

FYI - When they nerfed Fate Dice they also removed the wording that we can't use more than one per phase!

[@The_Captain40k]

Ooh! Good spot!

[@waynegray6278]

From what I can see it's still once per phase?? or am I missing something?

[@pawebronowicki4171]

Great battle report I've really enjoyed it but, i feel like the necron player should be hitting those bike units which where -1 to hit on 5+ instead of 4+, or am i missing something?

[@The_Captain40k]

They’re heavy so get +1 to hit if they stay still

[@pawebronowicki4171]

aaa that's right thank you@@The_Captain40k

[@anvos658]

Feels kind of stupid to me that the neutral control point can clearly go on a side of the map that favors one team over the other. Rather a big downside of a map with such a big showpiece thing in the center. Good for the Eldar player, but still.
