Death Guard vs Imperial Guard in a Fog of War Deployment. Warhammer 40k in 40m

[@francescogulisano2917]

*laughs nervously* "Yeah, I'm dead" That's what being in the Imperial Guard feels like

It's games like this. that remind me there's so many ways to play this game, and gets me even more excited to start playing. I wasn't able to finish my armies before I left for deployment, but I'll have plenty of time once I get back to finish them and get playing!

[@RiftVaulter]

wow these minis are painted so beautifully. Usually try not to stan too much but def big ups to Art-W. looking forward to new pieces.

[@VaSoapman]

I think this game is a perfect showcase of how important movement is in 40k

[@thefloridaman41]

Amazing game and I loved the fog of war deployment. That could honestly be a really cool mechanic for tag team games where no one knows how their teammate deployed before turn 1 but they start playing on turn 3 exactly like reinforcements (each player gets 1k and their own army rules; shared CP and all that.)

[@Faefaxi]

Usually I find this style of editing annoying for TV shows like Storage wars; where we can see what happens and then there's a micro interview. However... As someone who is JUST looking into buying their first army after fawning over the lore for a couple of years, I find it extremely helpful. Learning how the game is actually played. the reasoning behind different attacks and tactics. Excellent series! ( I found this video looking up how the Death Guard are played, This comment is made about 12 minutes in and they look BADASS)

[@Bluecho4]

At least we got one explosion in, before the end. Great battle report!

[@dalekayse4916]

Question for you guys over at PoT. I might have missed it, but how are you all feeling on the faction focuses the last few weeks. Personally, i think theres a LOT of doom and gloom over Deathguard the most. I think in the vacuum of 10th with what we've seen they will actually be great, but people are proclaiming the skies fallen. With Tycho being the child of chaos he is does he still plan on being nurgles favorite? Whats his thoughts since out of everyone who does Battle Reports he's by far the most devoted.

[@PlayOnTabletop]

I think theres so much nuance we don't know yet, and its going to have to wait till everything is out and the dust is settled before we know whats what!

[@tychoimmega9741]

Nurgle will always be my #1! We have seen so little and in the end the points are what makes a unit efficient or not. I for one am super excited to dive in and figure out how to dominate the field with the Death Guard! Sometimes it takes more effort, thats ok. I would avoid anyone telling you they know how 10th is going to hash out "power" wise, they dont know. Im not sure GW knows! I am going to have fun with Death Guard regardless and can only afford so many half baked opinions swimming around my noodle so attack that grey plastic with the magical sauce they call paint and play on! PS see you like blood angels too. Samesies!

[@dalekayse4916]

@@tychoimmega9741 I am indeed! I also play Bloody Roses and World Eaters...Seem to have a very red theme going on. Just replying back because of the GW changes to a lot of Deathguard support which just got banned in competitive play going forward. You guys almost always go more narrative driven so I hope this doesnt effect you too much; Especially the loss of the greater blight drones.

[@camojoe83]

So who's gonna make a goopy ol Titan for Nurgle?

[@wyatttyson7737]

Nick should have swapped the Hell Hounds for some more Infantry. Each Hell Hound is worth just under 2 Cadian squads, so if he dropped some sponsons or other bits here or there he could have doubled his infantry. As cool as they are, Hell Hounds kinda suck, and the Infantry would have put a lot more work in than they did.

[@Dracobyte]

Wow! Are the vehicles that expensive?

[@wyatttyson7737]

@@Dracobyte 110 points vs 65 point Cadian squads. If he dropped the Bullgryn and instead gave the Command Squad an Ogyrn Bodyguard, as well as dropping both Hell Hounds he could fit in 4 more Cadian squads. Thats 4 more Plasma guns, 4 more melta guns, 4 more Drum fed Autoguns, and 28 more lasguns. Overall, less cool, but way more efficient. More bodies, more units, significantly more shots. Since Nick likes First Rank Fire Second Rank Fire over the better Take Aim thats 84 more shots per turn, including enough Auto-Wounds alone to almost kill the Blightlords in 1 turn just from the Lasguns. With how his dice went this game I doubt that would happen, but still, better than the hell hounds for sure.

As a guard player that's painful to watch. Dorn is alright feel the oppressor cannon is the best weapon to use. But rather have 2 russes than 1 fully kitted out dorn (i know its not double the cost but you know what I mean). A leman russ with the gatekeeper relic I think does better than a dorn with twin battlecannon. It's a bit bizarre it's not 2d6 plus 3, that would make it perhaps worth it. Anyway Tycho once again rolling like a beast

[@rainerzufall9490]

Great game. Loved to watch it

[@StoriesOfASaytr]

Demo cannon is ap 3. Pretty sure crawlers only have a 3+ save. so should have failed two saves that first turn

I wonder what happend to Rogal Dorn . Is the Rogal Dorn not upgrade to the teeth or something. I recall the tank has more firepower or is Nick miss em all?

[@christophervennix9861]

Yeah I wondered the same thing. Seems like he's only ever shooting its twin battle cannon but even un-upgraded the Rogal Dorn typically runs: -Opressor Cannon (Heavy D6 + 3, Str 10, AP -3, Damage 4) Turret Weapon -Co-axial Autocannon (Heavy 2, Str 6, AP -1, Damage 2) Turret Weapon -Pulveriser Cannon (Heavy D6, Str 8, AP -2, Damage 3) On top of that it can also be equipped with 2 additional meltaguns and either 2 multi-meltas or 2 heavy bolters. A common choice is the 2 multi-melta's for 30 points which gives: -2x Multi-melta (Heavy 4, Str 8, AP -4, Damage D6 /+2)

[@redeye117]
