Blood Angels Vs Word Bearers - Horus Heresy Battle Report - Age of Darkness

[@jovenlawrence4977]

Thank you for more blessed heresy content

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@petercarlson8240]

Love the Heresy content. Love your whole channel really, but putting in my two cents for more Heresy videos.

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Cheers mate! Is deffo noted! And definitely more heresy

[@crwarren]

Contemptors don't have move through cover, only levis

[@BearfootMiniatures]

but they have knees craig, why dont they have MTC!

[@crwarren]

@@BearfootMiniatures I dunno, while does the armoured personnel carrier capable of carrying 13 warrior in their own walking battle tanks break down when it hits a speed bump?

[@BearfootMiniatures]

@@crwarren 13?! 13!!! What transports are you using! Transport creep is rife up your way I see

[@crwarren]

@@BearfootMiniatures a spartan carries 13 terminators

[@lonelysandbar]

Why not y'all get on the Patreon so you can see these awesome batreps early! :D

[@BearfootMiniatures]

cant believe ive just seen this! Everyone listen to Sandbar!

[@nemdenemam9753]

These paintjobs are absolutely awesome

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Shall make sure the guys know mate! Sadly cant claim any but im sure theyll be very appreciative!

[@clonesecundus3495]

Awesome game, great to see Blood Angels getting some love

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Do love the army mate so therell be more (Massive shout to dave for that as its his army Im borrowing!)

[@devildogwargaming7594]

I thought this game was over at about the 20-minute mark. Oh boy, was I wrong! Great game!

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Thanks mate! was such a rollercoaster of a game really, when the drop came in especially, i had about 5 mins between "its over" and "oh no ive fucked up"

[@myrar8708]

Yay more Horus Heresy! Thanks for the good content

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Cheers mate: glad you enjoyed it!

[@heresynutter3407]

Hey, thanks for the great content! You did get some rules wrong thought: - A normal contemptor does not have Move Through Cover- > -2 on movement and charges, while in Difficult terrain - A pinned unit can never declare reactions

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Will have to remember: I know it sounds stupid but I always associate contemptors with the same as leviathans' rules!

[@jovenlawrence4977]

Pinning dose go away at the end of your turn though. If you get pinned on your turn it ends at the end of that turn

[@crwarren]

Actually it goes away "at the end of its following turn". So if you're pinned in your turn, you are unpinned at the end of your next turn. If you are pinned in your opponents turn, you are pinned at the end of your next turn.

[@BearfootMiniatures]

What craig says mate: it screws you for aaaages!

[@DaBozinator]

Just found the video and channel. Great Stuff!

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Thanks mate! Really glad you’re enjoying it!

[@abbadonslostarms-kbd1393]

They really need to change fearless to stubborn and ditch the marker on DoR Rite of War.

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Ye mate 100% agreed, its a fun concept (I imagine it like the last stand placing a beacon for the drop troops) but sadly just doesnt quite come together IMO

[@abbadonslostarms-kbd1393]

@BearfootMiniatures it's just poor mechanically and fluffy wise imo. Can't imagine a commander kr Sangy himself being " oh, our LZ is now a deathbox. Again.ahh well, time to die!"

[@nathanvarley542]

What a ride haha. I loved that randomness

[@BearfootMiniatures]

I know mate, so many swings in it, was like a rollercoaster!

[@ANGRYFACE118]

Awesome batrep, I'd love to see some Thousand Sons in the future.

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Cheers mate! ive jsut started asking around again as i type (where are all the Thousand sons at!!!)

[@padanfain7466]

Where does it say you cant seize the initiative if you choose to go second after winning the roll?

[@James-37]

I dont think thats correct based on seize rules Seize the Initiative: If the player who is due to go second wishes to Seize the Initiative, that player can roll a D6 before beginning the first game turn. On a roll of 6, they successfully Seize the Initiative and go first instead.

[@nukedukem4260]

Well.....that was kind of bonkers🤣

[@BearfootMiniatures]

glad you thought so! was super fun to play

[@nealcranney7217]

Brilliant game guys would love to come on with my knight army for a scrap, keep at it

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Mate if your up for it just shoot me a message (IG or something is prob best) and we can sort something out!

[@crwarren]

No one wants to see an army get curb stomped... Unless they're word bearers. Good result

[@BearfootMiniatures]

haha this is its own category of thing I think the game was so all over the place!

[@blewis9180]

That grassish terrain, how was that made?

[@BearfootMiniatures]

the yellowy long grass? its made from coir door matts (its like a coconut fibre product) that Ive stuck to MDF boards to then put dirt etc around them! (just for a search term not where i got them from try "Flooring Direct Coir Matting" to see what Im referring to, I got mine from the local hardware store)

[@crwarren]

any model in a unit in combat can be take a wound, it's not limited to just those in engagement range. Page 187

[@crwarren]

I've read the rules again after someone asked. And what you did, killing the models engaged in combat until there were none left and then discarding the rest of the rules in covered in the rules. My bad. Earlier in the page it mentioned that you can allocate wounds to any model in the unit that is engaged. The wording isn't clear whether it's any model in the engaged unit or any engaged model.

[@BearfootMiniatures]

ye mate, its actually a great trick for avoiding wounds being allocated to something like a thunderhammer preator (who will consolidate in at I1) its what Chris has been pulling with Ferrus and why a breacher blob of just cheap mooks to get into combat is such a good pairing

[@crwarren]

Jump packs only run 2d6, 3d6 is for cavelry only now

[@BearfootMiniatures]

mind blown, wonder why theyre slower at running!

[@AndrewPeverells]

Yesss horus heresy!! Always love to watch your batreps, they're so entertaining

[@BearfootMiniatures]

Ive been asking about and Matt from the mordheim vids and Pete who plays whitescars both have TS armies with er finished or in progress so as soon as i can pin them down (or anyone that wants to come on with them) theyll be on!

[@James-37]

Moritat wont kill himself with a gets hot. Nothing of the weapons stats apply apart from its ap on a gets hot ;) The inferno pistols dont give a gets hot either. The roll of 1 just means they stop the chainfire. Keep on melting tanks mr moritat!!!

[@BearfootMiniatures]

insert mind blown gif!

[@afiqhamid4374]

Pinning for days...

[@abbadonslostarms-kbd1393]

Think I've asked before but do you have a discord ?

[@Hedgehog_Prime]

He does, it's linked to his patreon, I b'lieve.

[@BearfootMiniatures]

As @Hedgehog_Prime says its in the patreon mate and thanks for getting to it for me while ive been busy Hedgehog!

[@muzey4382]

Blood Angles? 😂 great bat rep

[@BearfootMiniatures]

ruh row! didnt spot that one!

[@ja37d-34]

Not played Farty K since 4th Ed... Is there any reason to play 10th Ed or should i just go with the cool guys and play HH? ;)

[@BearfootMiniatures]

I think we both know what I'm going to say to this: HH is king! did watch a game between Phil and Matt (whose been on playing Mordheim) and it seemed to have promise if kept reasonable, but they didnt do anything super crazy does seem a bit bamboozling vs a simple statline change being a difference between units TLDR: HH is best but in terms of 40k I just dont know anymore!

[@ja37d-34]

@@BearfootMiniatures HH seems a bit more classy.. Just miss my Orks.. So many Beakiez in HH.. ;)
