Good battle report, maybe a bit blocks bashing each other but the giving ground and new break tests add some spice to things. Very pleased you managed to get another rep so soon. The board is great, i love the battlemat, and Chris' orcs really are fantastic, the red scheme on the Dwarfs also looked nice.

Thank you very much, really appreciate it. Yeah it will add greater depth when I get some speed into my orc army.

[@jbgaillet806]

Fantastic battle report (and such a lovely Orc army !!). Just one side note for your camera setting: do not choose AWB (auto white balance), as it tends to change colour temperature all the time. Maybe choose another setting, like Daylight, and stick to it :)

[@Stormoak]

As a Warhammer Fan for 25 years i really like this Battle Report and the Armies. Dwarfs were my first Army. Packing a lot of Points in a big Elite Regiment + King+ other Chars is always tempting but they have to get a chance to fight a decisive fight. Especially for Dwarfs the Deplomyent Phase before there Start of the Battle is absolute crucial because you have very little or no chance at all to correct a deployment mistake. The Kings Place is not to hold the flank but in the Center in opposition to the most important enemy units. But that is Classic Warhammer

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks buddy and agreed on the king always holding the centre line

[@00Kuja00]

The only time a friend of mine managed to kill anyone with his Tomb King's death curse was with an encounter with a giant. Sadly the giant then fell and killed the army's hierophant. So a bit of a shame they removed the randomness of Timber. ^^*

[@sn_dc]

That sound amazing hahaha 😂😂 thousands of years old and gets crushed by a giant he killed

[@00Kuja00]

@@sn_dc Even better. Killed by the giant who died from the King's curse which were released when the King died by the very same giant. So the giant killed the King, died from his curse and fell and killed the hierophant.

[@Mithguar]

With spells like 'Ere we Go that target self and affect units in command range, it works on ALL units in command range when it goes off. So not only Savage orcs got the 'Ere we go but all Black orcs as well. Great game! Savage Orcs were shockingly good. There is a good stream game on Play On Channel which shows lot of magic play and how it works now. I think it is pretty good system where magic isn't broken but still impactful.

[@tomekhekin914]

- I think war machines can be destroyed in two ways. You kill the crew or destroy it. Therefore if you hit canon crew (with canon shoot) you can additionally kill one of its crew (and wound canon). Check only if war machine doesn't stop cannonballs like Behemot - Big units like giants see above others and can be seen by everybody therefore all ranks can shoot at them - You are right bolt thrower don't need to kill. It auto hit a number of models equal of ranks in the unit - Deamon slayer doesn't have Monster Killing Blow? - Close order stack (you can add multiple close order +1 for every unit in combat)

[@sn_dc]

Hello 👋 War machines count as one unit, so you can put your crew on the base, which means there isn’t an option to differentiate between crew and machine - from what we read

[@glimmer_twin]

1:56:23 do BSBs explode when they flee or is that just unit standard bearers? And maybe not in this edition 🤷‍♂️

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

Nah, they don't explode. You will only get the points for the battle standard banner if he's dead, fleeing at the end of the game or flees off the table. That's the only way you can claim 50pts of trophies of war from them.

[@dunny7970]

Excellent bat rep! Starting my OandG army as soon as I can get my hands on some models. I have to ask though…. The black orcs. Are they just painted black and edged with a silver in a chipping/scratching method? They look fantastic and if that is the case I have been severely over thinking it for my black armor😂😂. Would love to know thanks again!

[@SNBattleReports]

Will try get the painter to answer ♥️

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

Hey mate, I can confirm, the black orcs are primed with chaos black spray and then rough, chipping-like edge highlighted with iron hands steel. That's it. Simple. When I started I had been doing washes and all sorts and it just took too long. So I tried to simplify it without losing too much quality

[@dunny7970]

Apologies. Couple of things we got wrong but posting it so people (including us) can learn from it: 1. orc boys dont have furious charge. Just black orcs. 2. We forgot deathblow on slayers 3.

[@guillaumedubos6596]

Not sure the Orc BSB could rally on anything else than a double 1 considering he was part of a unit that was wiped out, so below 25%. If he can, that means it's always better not to kill the last remaining orc model so as to prevent the BSB from rallying.

[@huwtindall7096]

So glad WFB is back. The lore is top notch. The armies full of characterful minis. And it is fundamentally a different tactical challenge from 40K and Sigmar. Yeah sure it's a bit more complex and clunky that the new rules systems but it's worth the effort. Hopefully it is well supported and we see it continue for a long time.

[@bryanquick3349]

My only critique for the otherwise gorgeous board is that it’s effectively a moonscape if you shove all the terrain into the corners. It’s just putting things on the table when it’s not going to be a factor in the battle outside of aesthetic presentation. It’s a tendency that always bothered me about WHFB games

[@sn_dc]

Fair comment! The board was made up to be like a ‘road-block’ as per the narrative intro (also with burnt out buildings) but I get you we could have added something in the middle? We’re working on more OW terrain for future games 😊

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

Not a problem. It was my first game and it took like 8hrs to record cause i was constantly checking rules so I'll take that lol Future games will have terrain... Maybe a wood or 3... To house some inhabitants that may live there some say....

[@bryanquick3349]

Cheers, guys! I figured it was arranged so you guys could come to grips with the rules, and because it was supposed to be a kind of ‘mountain pass’ situation. I’m biased towards terrain, being a wood elf player, but my experience in 8th edition was that many generals got mad about terrain because it ‘interfered’ with the 4d chess they thought they were playing haha I like difficult and dangerous terrain in games just to spice it up, and to make certain parts of the battlefield good for defending or attacking. Losing a model or two in dangerous terrain out of a block of 20 shouldn’t be a disaster anyway. I also like hills generally, because having low or high ground matters and it adds additional variety to the table. Thanks for the great battle report and keep up the good work! :)

Quick question when you fall back orderly are you not able to at some point adjust the facing of your unit?

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

Yeah a fall back in good order is effectively a flee with an automatic and immediate rally and a free reform at the end. If the attacker pursues and catches the unit, then they could as charging in the next round of combat and all bonuses apply

Was that not a direct hit with rock lobber on turn one? Or do stone throwers always scatter now and you just follow the arrow on the direct hit face?

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

You can now do indirect fire. So if you cannot draw a line of sight to the target unit (which I couldn't because my orc unit was in the way) then you will always scatter. If you roll a hit you use the arrow on the hit icon and scatter the artillery dice minus your BS number of inches.

I'm a bit late but warmachines has a single wound pool and you roll to wound against the warmachine's T while shooting at it and against the crews T in close combat. Crew models are really just for aesthetics/wound counters, they can't be hit and you only measure from the warmachine.

[@Captain_of_Nuln]

Someone may have said this, but I think I remember reading that missile units all have to pick targets before any of them are resolved?

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

I'll have a read up and check later but I think that's an incorrect interpretation of the phase and sub-phase order but yeah I'll double check. :)

[@Captain_of_Nuln]

⁠@@Chris_da_Waaaghit’s possibly something I saw in a reaction video so maybe they were wrong. The other thing I wondered about but might be wrong on is step up. In one of the almanac pieces they said, “Casualties are removed from the back ranks, representing the rear ranks stepping forward as their comrades bite the dirt.”, I was interpreting that as meaning you still fought with a complete front rank if you want second, like in later editions, but I see you are doing it the old way, that’s definitely how they are doing it then? It’s hard enough learning the rules in isolation but even worse when you start getting confused with several other editions you used to play. I wish I was still 13 s as me could just read it and remember it!

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

@@Captain_of_Nuln yeah it can be confusing. Hopefully this helps: models are removed from the back rank for ease. 5 orcs charge 10 dwarves (2 ranks of 5 wide). Orcs kill 2 dwarves. Now only 3 dwarves get to fight back. The 2 dwarves killed are removed from the bank rank for ease. This represents 2 models behind the "killed ones in the front rank" stepping forward into the fighting rank. Any model that steps forward into the fighting rank like this cannot attack. However if a unit is armed with spears and provides a supporting attack, then if that spearman steps up from a 3rd rank into a 2nd rank, it will get to provide a supporting attack. Hopefully that makes sense mate?

[@Captain_of_Nuln]

@@Chris_da_Waaagh yes, definitely, thanks! If i was them I would not have highlighted removing from the back rank in the article on that basis. Armour seems a lot more important at low initiative now after playing WAP for the last few years!

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

@@Captain_of_Nuln yeah armour is big now. A 3+ or 4+ armour save on infantry is extremely strong. Getting into the weeds of the game now and navigating some of the nuances etc, I genuinely think this is the best edition of fantasy. And I love 6th edition.

[@blastvader]

Need to wait until Saturday obviously to get the book infront of me, but every other time I've seen a cannon used in a ToW batrep it still does the double bounce (ie, place your marker then roll to see what extra distance you get THEN bounce - basically just missing out the guess range step from 7th and earlier). Reading the 8th book (an edition I never played to be fair) it seems it works exactly the same as that edition?

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

It does mate. This is in another comment. We done it right, it just wasn't explained right. The 10 was added to his position and it hit the rock lobber but we didn't roll against cause nothing was behind it. The rest of the shots are played out better for the camera. Hope you like the video and feel immersed 😊

[@rileyosteen6470]

So, I believe you misunderstood how the cannons work. the first roll determines if the cannon misfires or not, but also how far the cannonball lands from the first point. The second roll then determines how far the cannon ball bounces from THAT point.

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

Hey mate this is in other comments too. We played it correctly, it just wasn't explained right. The 10 inches rolled on the artillery dice was added to the spot and it hit the back of my rock lobber. We just didn't roll again after that to see how far it rolled through because I didn't have another unit behind so it didn't matter. Subsequent turns are explained and shown better. Hope you enjoyed the game 😊

Sure you didn't do the cannon firing wrong? Don't have TOW rules, but in WFB you: 1. Picked a point within range. 2. Rolled Artillery dice for extra random flight distance - misfire here means something went wrong with the cannon. 3. Rolled Artillery dice for bounce distance - misfire here means ball stuck in the ground with no bounce. Seems you skipped the second part?

[@jacob5700]

If you skip part 2, there's no reason to not just place the marker right infront of the target - unless you have friendly units directly behind the target of course.

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

Just watching through but we played it as you say... Lemme check it as I watch through :)

[@GaryP336]

Yea. Pretty sure that's not how cannons work

[@jacob5700]

@@Chris_da_Waaagh 21:50 Here you seem to just pick a point and go straight to the bounce.

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

I think it's just the wording when DC said it goes straight through. What actually happened was he picked a point and rolled the artillery dice. That added 10 inches which landed on the back of my stone thrower so it was hit. We just didn't roll to see how far it rolled through after because there were no more models behind it so it didn't matter.

I think one issue the dwarves had was not using that cannon blast the big blocks of orcs. Great quality content I'm probably just grumbling cause I'm collecting Dwarves.

Collecting dwarves? We can all make mistakes. Be mean, go green!

To fair cannons, organ guns ect needed toning down. Bigger monesters were unplayable. As a dwarf player myself it'd be nice not to be the most hated faction.

Loving the fantasy battles! Yall seem to be the only ones atm not doing either empire or brettonia and Tomb kings. It's a real draw. Also fantastic looking armies on both sides Well done to you both!

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

Thank you really appreciate it. I'm a very slow painter but I'll try get more orcs done

We’ve got Warriors of Chaos up next!! 💪⚔️

[@Tulkash01]

Nice BR! The only thing I'd say you need more scenic elements to make battles a bit more challengening in the center

[@sn_dc]

Thanks! We will get more complex as the games go on, this was Chris’s first game of OW so didn’t want to increase the difficulty level! I’m still learning too!

[@bobbyfillier7931]

What army is Mr. Pardo going to be playing? I love these old world batreps, i cant wait for the next one!

Next up is Chaos Warriors!! And Mr Pardo is a goblin… so I’m thinking Night Goblins! 😂

Just curious, what size table did you guys film this game on? Thanks for the great bat rep!

[@SNBattleReports]

6x4 buddy

I love and own both armies but I legally can't cheer for a dwarf army with no gyrocopters. 😉

[@SNBattleReports]

Haha 😆

[@lootnscoot50]

no deathblow on slayers?

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

Yeah we just remember it at the end sadly, apologies. So much to get our head round. Hope it didn't detract from the immersion of the game and that you enjoyed the video.

[@SNBattleReports]

Correct we forgot! Sorry we are silly ppl

[@MantraDNG]

Excellent BatRep, but how about a turtorial on those trees?!~

[@SNBattleReports]

Sadly was not done by us

[@DasDevilSquid]

Did I see a pivot widget in one of your videos? I've been looking for something like that.

[@clorensgregory2445]

why is the first shot of the orc stone thrower deflected if he gets a hit?

[@Chris_da_Waaagh]

This is how they work now with indirect fire. So they can shoot at things they cannot draw line of sight to, but if you roll a hit, you will still scatter, but it will scatter the artillery dice minus your BS number of inches.

[@gorthi]

Great Battlereport! Can you tell me, where I can find that awesome Gamemat? Would be great to play on it!

[@christiansorensen7567]

Thank you for remembering Ancient Grudges/hatred. I've watched a bunch of battle reports where they completely forget, and a Dwarf Lord whiffs all his attacks. Throws the game results. (Oops, you forgot slayer deathblows.) Always aim ten inches from the rear of your target, unless your instincts tell you otherwise. Still, I like the semi-guess range skills showing through on the cannon. I was really good back in 6th Edition. People accused me of cheating, or pre-measuring. Truth is, I just drilled. Formed a practice gunline, and marched troops at it. I still miss 8th Edition, despite the horrible magic abuse.
