ENGINE WAR!! Astra Militarum vs Chaos Space Marines 3,000 points | Warhammer 40k Battle Report

[@fusewv2239]

This is one of, if not the THE very best 40K battle report I’ve seen in years. The thematic nature of the mission selection and list builds and the unadulterated joy in the carnage of the game. This is S tier 40K content

[@thebardTT]

Glad you enjoyed buddy!!

[@tabletoptactics]

Thanks for the support - glad you enjoyed it :)

[@luketfer]

I love the characterization of Vashtor as this nerdy, soft spoken, kind of amicable Daemon who is just out there managing his projects. The "Hello, would you like to join the Dark Mechanicum?" just broke me.

[@DJROCKSTAZ]

Honestly, would love to see a actually reasonable Chaos character!

[@jamesmaybrick2001]

@@DJROCKSTAZ Argal Tal says hello. Fuck Erebus.

[@DJROCKSTAZ]

@@jamesmaybrick2001 Ohhh! Didn’t know that.

[@UponThisAltar]

​@@jamesmaybrick2001Argel may have been a bad dude, but not without reason, and definitely didn't deserve getting shanked in the kidneys by Erebus, that slimy fuck.

[@Jimmy-pf7kr]

THIS is what 40k should be, utter chaos between mates 😂

[@tabletoptactics]

We agree 😂🕷️

[@DaBlueIghuana]

This might just be the most fun battle of all the 40K battle reports that I have watched

[@tabletoptactics]

Thanks for letting us know :)

[@the3rdperson2]

The scream when he rolled those 1s lol

[@TNAralwaysfun]

This is honestly one of the best batreps ever. The amount of pure joy from all the action.

[@purplehatman2412]

29:19 bro that noise 😂

[@shnuff5053]

From now on, anytime I see a Forge Fiend, I will think of this

[@shanehepple2044]

The real title of the video..... "I've failed my dark pact....." "I've taken 3 mortal wounds"

[@hopefulmonster]

This was glorious. I've not laughed so hard in ages.

[@tabletoptactics]

Thanks for watching :)

[@robclarke1098]

Your videos should be required viewing for anyone starting any Games Workshop based game. Perfect proof that having fun is far more important than winning. Amazingly entertaining as usual and thank you for your hard work.

[@tabletoptactics]

Thanks so much for the support. Fun is the priority it is a game after all :)

[@SiggySour]

Official request that a section of a 40K book featuring Vashtor dialogue be read in that voice!!!!! Lol😂

[@logansullivan9688]

The cheeky little IDLES reference from Bard at the beginning was excellent

[@DaSkwire]

You know it's going to be a good one when you hear Beard say "Vashhtor" 😁

[@Taiters19]

I will never get tired of Vashtorr Voice!

[@michaelhansen2309]

7:35 graceful as always Beard 😂

[@grahamcooke7489]

Best fathers Day gift ever! Tanks, daemon engines and explosions everywhere

[@tabletoptactics]

Happy Father’s Day! Enjoy the 💥

[@robperkins2085]

Outstanding work gents!! More of this please.

[@MikeNmurdoc]

I’ve been watching since the days in Lawrence’s kitchen and this is one of the best batreps I’ve seen!! The dark Gods are pleased 🤗

[@tabletoptactics]

Thanks for your support over the years :) Lawrence

[@TheLastOmnitect]

Vashtor: //Wanna join Dark Mechanicum? Tech Priest: PHBTLPHBTLPHBTL Vashtor: //What that mean? Guardsman: Idk, mate. We just keep 'im around. Vashtor: //Undecided. We flame 'im? My ribs HURT

[@gregmichaud7314]

I absolutely loved this chaotic game!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!

[@ChaosLordPug]

My lord beard is here BABY !!!!! Start every Saturday with tabletop XD

[@robertprueter3292]

This is the perfect battle report. Congrats lads, you did it. I laughed so much I cried a little

[@tabletoptactics]

Good to hear, thank you :)

[@ollycatford]

Excellent BatRep gents, thank you so much!

[@Lavitz14616]

You guys have too much fun. Every episode makes me want to pick up something new.

[@brendanhess7422]

Now THIS is 40k! I think I laughed almost as much as you all did.

[@ronwingrove683]

Uh... BOOM! I think that's an adequate summary of this game. Just... BOOM!

[@richcrichton9185]

That game was pure comedy, loved it. Bard and beard always great and chef as servo skull is a fountain of knowledge.

[@Cursedsama]

This was so much fun, would love to see you guys do an actual Crusade campaign sometime!

[@fabianm2819]

just mental image of nork in a sidecar, the sidecar comes loose and hes a nork shaped cannonball that just demolishes vashtor

[@arianash7763]

that was absolute pandemonium, I loved every second of it!

[@endgame6494]

This was amazing. Laughed so much through this. Absolute Carnage. Thanks for doing what you do.

[@trancelord34]

I had a lot of fun seeing you have a lot of fun!

[@heresyismytherapy]

Another fantastic episode... Have been an on demand member for quite a few months and can honestly say that this is much better value than Warhammer TV! Something new almost every day, the podcast is brilliant and everything is always well edited! Great work guys, keep it coming!

[@tabletoptactics]

Thanks so much!

[@IronCladHulk]

The first time a battle report has made me genuinely cry from laughing, this was phenomenal. Somewhere between the forgefiend noise and the Vashtor smoke stack party trick I might have bruised a rib laughing. I’ve got a ticket to the November league game day, hoping it’s half as fun and chaotic as this game!

[@peterkulczycki6244]

Joe’s forgefiend impression is on point.

[@leegoesrunning281]

Absolutely fantastic what a roller coaster

[@oscarholloway4443]

Holy Moly! This is gonna be a fun one. Cwush da silly gardsmen, vasstor!

[@EleshScorn]

After all the misery of the GSC codex this week, this was a welcome change. I think my GSC is going to be 100% Astra Militarum for the foreseeable until they fix my poor four-armed friends. Off to buy more tanks...

[@dominicchammas549]

Cheers guys, my son whose 9 and has had special needs loved this so much he made go get his codex to try and emulate it 😂

[@theticksquad8218]

Seeing the knight go in for a punch with this mission rule makes me think the main officer of the astra militarum is going: "PUNCH HIM SO HARD HE EXPLODES"

[@redzabo1]

Love this content. Your models are incredibly painted and the terrain/setup/production is great.

[@pajmage]

That Lord Solar conversion is majestic! Any chance we can get a close up or description of how it was built?

[@thepastrychef8014]

It was a gift to the channel by one of our megaboss fans Phil. Unfortunately no building guide to hand 😅

[@Haste444]

Idk if I've ever laughed so much watching a 40k brep, this one had me cracking up with you guys.

[@RowdiesFan1]

WHAT A GAME!

[@NoOne-nm4ng]

Please bring out more legends units for battle reports. Always love to see the more unique models out on the table.

[@davida138]

Great bat rep! You demonstrate how to really enjoy a game of impossibly bad dice rolls. Vehicles do not provide cover unless it has that ability. The base baneblade has that ability.

[@jaysalmon3259]

I love the energy you guys always bring to your games, you remind us all that having fun really is the point. :D damn great game, thank you guys for always putting out such quality content with real joy and love put into them. All the kudos!

[@aaronjacobs462]

That was by far the funniest game I've ever seen

[@mjhsinclair]

Warpsmiths: Vashtorr’s babies.

[@EvilJThomas]

So, so good. The laughter, oh boy the laughter!

[@rebvamp13]

The first shot with the quake cannon reminds me of Godzilla minus one fire attack

[@changemylife1803]

Amazing ! thank you !

[@gaberomano1738]

What a fantastic game!

[@EnigmaMachine94]

Ohohohooooo NOW we are talking! CRUSH THE IMPERIUM!

[@AuraXars]

On this episode: biggles and giggles put on an explosive show for all, thanks lads this was amazing

[@UltraMeanMarines]

Thoroughly enjoyed the IDLES reference at the beginning of this vid.

[@olivertunnah3987]

This was a great fun report. Had me giggling away like a nutter!

[@williamlowther1204]

made my day already.. this was so much fun to watch!

[@Chakfor]

I laughed the entire way through this batrep. You all caught lightning in a bottle on this one. Just an absolute riot. Usually I go into these hoping one of the factions wins. This time? Didn't care, I was just enjoying the game. We *all* won with this game.

[@thebardTT]

We did all win!!! Glad you enjoyed buddy was so much fun!

[@rakhaut3887]

I thoroughly enjoyed this! Thank you!

[@danielwallis9000]

What an idea, love the lists

[@mekugi_7729]

Commenting for effect! Love your work

[@randomacademypilot]

EXPLOSIONS!!! Thank you.

[@Vichyssoise1000]

This was amazing.. I totally want to throw this ruleset on my son in a tanks vs monsters mash up!!

[@stevenotrob6513]

What a great fun game. Keep up the good work

[@TheLaensman]

Stonks for murder? Sounds like a trade I’ll sign of on!

[@TheGoblinGrotto]

VASHTOR BURN YOU I laughed way too hard at that haha

[@jeanmanguy7900]

So much fun!

[@charlesbarthel4329]

So which number ended up higher. Overkill damage or total explosion inflicted damage.

[@thepastrychef8014]

Yes 😅

[@boffnet]

That was awesome!!!

[@ragetitan3071]

Fantastic!

[@Ishmachiah]

Such glorious explosions! The consistent failing of dark pacts is concerning for us in corporate hq, but the glorious explosions is still cause for celebration.

[@nickfernand6366]

I've never seen one of these before and no idea why the KZbin algorithms thought I'd want to but it was right! amazing stuff

[@tabletoptactics]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@brokenheroics8223]

By far the most entertaining battle report from you gusy, EVER. #everythingexplodes

[@martynsharp5936]

This. Is. Awesome!!!

[@BloodBuffalo]

Great video

[@HereticDave40k]

Vashhtor very upset, but Computer says yes, I want that one!

[@jeffreywalker926]

Beard needs to do voice reading on Vashtor from the books I think that would be funny

[@The_Blackshield]

Terrific terrible titanic tank total terror? Ta! :D

[@talscorner3696]

Somebody called for an Earfshaikah?

[@strategygame40k179]

Absolute Carnage!!

[@leterpustig8390]

To be honest, i did find this childish giggly behaviour a bit annoying at first, but the pure joy and fun is nothing less but adorable. i wish i could let loose like that. This was a great battle. The Machine spirits are proud :)

[@StrangeKvol]

Amazing game!

[@Bourne3343]

What was the final tally on wounds sustained from failing Dark Pacts? Seemed like every single fail was 3 mortal wounds 🤣

[@snorri8110]

Such a fun game, spat out my tea when the explosion's kept happening. :D

[@Dondolini94]

Never seen a funnier 3 turn game before 😂

[@Lexi_Chi_5]

these two are peak vibes

[@bastianblume7752]

Please mention the thumbs up more often... i keep forgetting it :)

[@ArjacRockfist.]

boom Boom BOom BOOm BOOM!!

[@tabletoptactics]

💥 💥 💥

[@Colbliashi]

Did Bard open that list overview with an Idols reference?!?!

[@thebardTT]

He might have done 👀

[@Colbliashi]

@@thebardTT well done

[@1987Hades]

Was checking to see if anyone else picked up on this!

[@Colbliashi]

@1987Hades it was one of those DiCaprio pointing at the TV meme moments.

[@theblindbuildergrandminuti5648]

I love big booms, and I can not lie.

[@jimmyjims9548]

Wonderful chaos!!!!!

[@ChesterRico]

Probably the most expensive TT video I've seen, both in points & € :P

[@zakov4155]

Macharius isnt Legends quite yet luckily

[@tasteofwang81]

Is Lord Solar the most proxied model in 40K?

[@sebastianhautamaki4439]

Lethal hits on the guards?

[@jcrosato]

Please give your baneblades your 2 additional lascannons and 2 twin heavy bolters xD

[@bad-people6510]

I keep getting confused because I keep forgetting these two players are different people. Like, legitimately I sometimes have trouble telling which one is talking.

[@WaffyBoy2626]

17:34 scared me

[@adamduncton6054]

Possibly best game ever… can you please do that again but add the Ork detachment with all the mechs??? Push the red button for even more explosions!!!!

[@nordicgaming8296]

Tag! you're it!
