Really nice report, lovely armies and looked fun, some cinematic moments also. Main rules things have already been covered, but the banestrike shotguns were the main one, they were played at 2 shot S5, breaching 5+, concussive whereas they're actually S4, Breaching 6+ shred, so actually pretty decent at ripping chunks out of a primarch. You also can't fire the wail and shotguns at the same time, so pick 2 models to wail with, and use the shotguns for the rest.

Awesome game guys! I think there was one small mistake, I can't tell if the Vigilator had joined the unit of Recon Marines or if he was seperate. If he had joined them they actually do not get the benefits of Skirmish, since he himself does not have it, at least I assumed that was why the cover was 4+ instead of 5+. I ran into the same thing, it's weird since it seems like he would fit perfectly with a squad of snipers!

@@RiftForgeStudio nothing major, there were a few moments where you missed dice rolls because the camera was too high/low no biggy, and a few occasions you panned to/from the dice tray to action to fast , which blurred the shot and missed things as you were speaking.

Great report, guys! Love the paint on the armies! On the Effrit unit, two bits: -What rule are you seeing that allows them to fire both the Hydra's Wail AND their shotguns? It's listed as a weapon - wouldn't they need Firing Protocols to fire both? (One or two could just fire the Wail, and the others the shotguns - that seems to be the intent.) -The banestrike shotguns are Breaching (6+), and have Shred. So may have been a misreading of that profile. Again, thanks for the report!

Really enjoying this Bat-Rep. Curious, has the rules for the Effrit Cadre shotguns changed? I can't find it in the FAQ, but you'd forgotten Shred, and it was Breaching (6). Or am I missing something? lol Looking into Alpha Legion to try something completely different than I usually do, so I'm becoming very interested in the Alpha Legion units and rules, all that misdirection etc. etc. 😁😅
