Dwarfs vs Orcs & Goblins Warhammer Armies Project Battle Report

[@BrandanKing]

Very happy and thankful Steve had me come out for a game of WAP. Had a lot of fun playing this game! I am addicted now!

[@svenkuba2820]

Let's go, King! You are one of us Dawi now! Used yer surname cause reasons

[@LinkytheGreat]

king in a mountain now, or taking down a mountain one of the two

[@stainp]

Why not do a full learning game on the channel? There are plenty of people interested in wap that haven't played it and would probably appreciate a full run through.

[@herpaderp35]

I'd go so far as to say there'd be demand so a "getting started with WAP" series of maybe 1000 point games to show people a reasonable way to get into things!

[@miszajansen]

Yes this honestly seems like a wonderful idea

[@DesertRatPainting]

I would definitively be very interested in learning

[@simpelekaas]

Yess,please

[@stalker1983]

Can only agree!!!!!!

[@leewearing9610]

Spear orcs fail animosity Turn 1, flash forward to completed movement phase and they have definitely moved to keep pace with the rest of the line!

[@tominieminen66]

Shhh! Steve has his own 'special' rules! xD

[@nicolascharron1186]

Yep but also he kills his giant that shouldn't have died because the second cannon shot was an indirect hit, so just D3 wounds

[@fletchdub]

I noticed that too and immediately scrolled to the comment section haha. Glad I wasn't the only one to notice this.

[@flakukaku9515]

I might be wrong but the bsb is a Black orc so the unit doesnt have to take animosity tests?

[@darnokx9277]

@@flakukaku9515 They still have to roll, but the BO can smash heads to overcome a failed test.

[@DoctorTom1111]

I know you were being funny, but your comments saying " he swats infantry and doesn't die, and don't try flanking his unit" are actually really helpful to understand how the model will play - more composition analysis in army showcases please!

[@friendofyoda5194]

Steve is such a delightful guy, what a great way to teach someone and keep everything really casual and lighthearted.

[@Wildboy789789]

I like simple lists, it feels like how the game was made to play

[@be-noble3393]

You constantly failing animosity is karma built up after years of forgetting it. Love the Batreps so keep them coming.

[@nicolascharron1186]

Dwarfs are really beginner's friendly. So really a good army for a first time. Nice batrep!

[@gotrekgurnisson9934]

I wish the classic models were easier to find. Always trying to find dwarf warriors, thunderers, quarrelers, miners, etc without breaking the hobby budget

[@paulthetyyppi]

@@gotrekgurnisson9934 you could look into highland miniatures or avatars of war

[@gotrekgurnisson9934]

@@paulthetyyppi I had just come across a bunch of those on etsy and they are fantastic looking, thank you! The Sons of Ymir line have some great substitutes. Times are tough financially so hobbies have had to take a backseat but I hope to eventually get some to try out.

[@Watcher-in-the-Dark]

What an awesome guy and a epic battle! Love seeing the Dwarves! Hope to see him and his Dwarves again.

[@flammablehero6529]

42:07 After a swift reform you can only make a normal move, which is directly forward. Sideways and backwards are not considered normal moves.

[@MasticaterTheChewer]

Did you guys forget the Gromril Armor rule? It's a dwarf staple to have absurd armor on your elites! Hammers with a 4+, psh...

[@Erikreaver]

Lovely to see new players! I am just in a few days gonna finally pick up a handful of paints and ask if anyone has square bases left. I got greenies too, and plan on a lot of boars! I even got myself the Gorbad F. Ironclaw.

[@dangercat8919]

Great game! Love watching these. One correction, when you flee through an enemy unit 35:03, you just take a dangerous terrain test, not 2 wounds per model.

[@MountainMiniatures]

You are incorrect. Read Page 29 of the Rule book

[@dangercat8919]

@@MountainMiniatures Good catch! But look at the diagram on pg 66. It's possible one of those rules changed and never got updated. Also, I don't know if this matters, but pg 66 details a break test while page 29 is compulsory moves.

[@jessehill3385]

Few dwarfs were harmed in the making of this episode :)

[@inzulmadaco561]

You are such a wonderful teacher and player. I'm so stoked for fantasy to come back. Keep up the amazing work!!!

[@kevinmuhamad2246]

Always happy to see more handheld batrep~

[@murrayjp8]

Good game. Solid citizenship award to Steve.

[@KyleMiddleton7]

Did hatred have some mechanic that interacted with the test to restrain?

[@jean-mariecontestin3169]

Handheld batrep....Dwarfs...What else...happy me!

[@andrew1230981]

Nice to see these intro videos maybe taster army’s first each faction to introduce to the strengths and weaknesses of each faction/ play style

[@patgray5402]

I love seeing mass infantry

[@Tymachos]

I'm looking forward for Steve's revenge! Get him, Steve!

[@alliedwheat4907]

These vids make me wanna get back to my roots and buy an army again, used to play fantasy as a kid, miss it, wish i had the time.

[@Mahrac126]

4:10 I don't believe you caught animosity. I believe you finished your movement and had to reset the board so you could claim you didn't forget. Also it _looks_ like you still moved the spears.

[@gregw-j6784]

steve's cheating on animosity again

[@KyleMiddleton7]

Play _______ armies; Win ________ prizes.

[@ToffeeDW]

Great Batrep, really enjoyed watching it!

[@Erikreaver]

Oh everything that could have gone wrong gone wrong for the poor greenies! :D Poor lads

[@lordravenblade]

Did the dwarfs have a RuneSMITH or RuneLORD? I thought it was just a runesmith from the army intro, but he was channeling as if he was a runelord. Smiths count as level 2 and lords count as 4.

[@lordravenblade]

Never mind i went back and checked. He is a runelord.

[@tominieminen66]

Hill bonus for shooting for a flying gyrobomber? :D

[@flammablehero6529]

I think because the Gyro was within 4”, which is +1 to hit.

[@ja37d-34]

Ouch though, tough battle.. :)

[@soulinite]

Thanks for another great game guys!

[@SuperHalberd]

Does it bother anyone else when people’s custom dice don’t roll and just drop and slide. Like who makes dice that don’t roll

[@dominicstow7242]

Best game ever! Ha ha, lots of fun to watch.

[@mohastgridlock]

Thanks for the army showcases! I hope the rest of the video was fun too, but I'm just here for the models/strategy. Rolling dice makes for great play, not a great watch.

[@jaybles23b70]

hell yeah Mordheim! Love the dwarfs!

[@Vandelberger]

Dude rolls like Luka.

[@PatchymooGaming]

GO DWARVES!!! (Or Dwarfs if you prefer)

[@tominieminen66]

This is purely pedantic, but in the Warhammer Fantasy setting, it's Dwarfs. Spelling it Dwarves didn't make sense for this reason. I, personally, do not give a rat's ass :D

[@PatchymooGaming]

@@tominieminen66 thanks for confirming. I did read up on it. So it's only Dwarves for J R R Tolkien's Fantasy race. Everything else is Dwarf... It seems :-/

[@axios5850]

dwarf canon only make 1d3 dmg no ?

[@Tulkash01]

Every batrep is better with some dwarven grudges thrown into the mix!

[@skipgiblets]

Such animosity, a classic grudge match. (See what I did there?)

[@flammablehero6529]

Everyday is a school day.

[@Studiozh]

more hand held!

[@ja37d-34]

I kinda like(d) Dwarfs.. Just hate playing them.. but i do love Orcs more - Gobbos are just a meatshield.. ;) So.. Nooooo!

[@ryanarnone5089]

Dogs o war 3d prints let’s see um broskies

[@EPGelion]

By all means, talk about AoS, Steve :D

[@ivansterliagov6561]

Maybe orks could bring more fancy stuff in their list too. Dwarves brought a good set of tanky, shooty and punchy infantry along with warmachine support. At least some black orks would be nice so that the more elite dwarven infantry could find their match. Beginner battles don't have to have handicapped lists.

[@oukt237]

Very good!!!

[@CyrodiilCome]

Let's go dowi!

[@Deadknight67]

I hate Dwarves, honestly they have so much advantage going for them (Especially in that case with their hatred vs Greenskins). Range combat has so much advantage and the parry rule amplifies that passive/defensive style of locking enemies and holding for as long as possible. And their melee fighters are very good with absurd armor. They also have Gyro to make up for lack of cavalry and Rune (that can't miscast) to compensate for lack of magic and can also dispel just fine. They have pretty much no drawback. As for the Orcs, I loved the Animosity and WAAAGH rules in 7th edition, in 8th Edition both are so bland. it's just plain and lame +1 to combat resolution, ... it's so bad for such an Iconic rule for the race. 8th Edition and WAP were designed by dwarves lovers I'm sure. I love fantasy battle but the more I see WAP the less I enjoy it sadly, the rules has too much emphasis/advantage to play ranged/defensive armies.
