Elves vs. Ogres: Desert Fight

In which we do a little experimenting with a bigger table, and some unusual terrain.

Man, bro, that close up of the minis looks outstanding!!! Specially those Ral Partha Europe elves.

Great game! 😊 Nothing more enjoyable than watching one of your scenarios while having breakfast. Though I burnt my toast😢

[@matthewstewart-fulton6266]

I really appreciated your tactical narrative breakdown during game play. It's really easy in games like this to lose sight of the goal, objective control. The planning 2 and 3 move ahead with the reasoning behind this thoughts is great guidance!

OPR!! Taking hits allows saves and taking wounds do not (but Regen would be in play unless ignored by the ability). Great video and tactics discussion.

“He has a rainbow staff” Tell that wizard that June is done and over with. No more parades for that crap until next year! Lol

@@TheJoyofWargaming Awesome, about time! As with all other lofty ideas and symbols, it’s been hijacked. And I hear the Incas want their flag back. :)

Fun video! As others have mentioned, your in-depth analysis of the objective situation is really interesting! One note regarding combats: I think the sword-wielding elf leader would have failed all his defence saves against the iron warrior. You mentioned he has AP 2 but I don't think that was applied to the elf's 4+ defense. Poor guy would have been in for a world of hurt and may have even been removed from the game! All-in-all, great video though!

@@thenerded Yeah, I dropped the ball on Elf toughness a few times. In my defense, elves and toughness don't usually pair up.

[@thenerded]

@@TheJoyofWargaming Haha this is true! I'm playing a lot of High Elf Fleets right now in GF and they are certainly not what I would call "tough" lol.

Is the rules set biased against elves, or is it just the dice 🎲🤔

[@TheJoyofWargaming]

@@macoppy6571 Player skill, probably.

[@intothezombieapocalypse]

What minis are those??

[@dartmart9263]

If I recall correctly, on the last video he identified where they are from. I know the elves are RPE (Ral Partha Europe)

[@TheJoyofWargaming]

@@intothezombieapocalypse Mostly from the Demonworld line.

[@intothezombieapocalypse]

@@TheJoyofWargaming thanks!!

[@matthewstewart-fulton6266]

Didn't both of your elf heroes have Tough 3?

[@TheJoyofWargaming]

@@matthewstewart-fulton6266 Yes, did one fall earlier than he should have?

[@themadelf]

I think you took one off the board after one wound. ​@@TheJoyofWargaming

I don't get why ppl get so butt hurt when people have different opinions. So long as they're not being a dick about it (like a dumb ass I got into spat over Aliens. He hated the movie [and James Cameron] and was of the opinion that anyone who even thought it was a little bit ok was a Cameron shrill who put if up on a pedestal... man had problems and a huge hate boner so I trolled him hard and had a laugh) either ignore it or politically provide your thoughts on the matter. simple as.
