I want a game of Tycho vs Tycho with Tycho announcing because I will never get tired of that man's epic voice.

[@MJFallout]

I don't wanna admit it... but yeah, totally, 100%!

[@Randicore]

That would be a fun april fools episode!

[@euanosborne4254]

Against a BA mirror match with Tycho as the warlords.

[@Herald-of-rust]

100% agree!

[@theholyspiritus4326]

Didnt they do that one where he played against himself because they did some chaos free for all? Couldve been a fever dream but I could swear I saw a vid where it was tycho vs tycho

[@animefan8254]

I have been waiting for 40k in 40minutes for grey knights for close to a year

[@MJHKing1]

Me too. Buzzing

[@Slapdab]

I feel like these opposing strengths make for a good battle. Uppy downy vs. inevitable crawling danger.

[@jarretcurtis2734]

Big same! What a cool list too, Crowe is my favorite

[@iddoboomgaard353]

@@animefan8254 yesssss time for some sons of Titan, hopefully we get more since they're now have some painted up ones.

[@Wyatt-k1l]

100 percent glad to see my faction represented

[@danjacobs4557]

I'm impressed that the Grey Knights did so well after losing both Dread Knights pretty quickly. A testament to good tactics (and a cracking Inquisitor)!

[@mercier390]

So happy to see Grey Knights on the channel. I was worried Play On just hated them.

[@PlayOnTabletop]

No hate. We just never had the time to paint up a studio Grey Knights army. Glad Michael decided to give them a go and paint them up.

[@mercier390]

All sarcasm. Love all the work you do! ❤

I know right? Get this man a book series

[@David-kd4qr]

Wipes off bloody mouth "I ain't hear no bell"

[@travisd2895]

It just dawned on me why I like watching Tycho play so much. He shares the same mannerisms and love for the narrative side of the game just like an old buddy of mine that passed away 15 years ago. It's like getting another chance to see him play vicariously through Tycho. Thanks Tycho ❤. R.I.P. Richard Dixon aka Dick Dixon.

[@joshuahodgson3655]

Good Ole Tycho keeping the Nurgle love alive. What a joy. Nurgle hugs for everyone!!

Well Dreadknights are literal baby carriers so they deserved to go down

[@timneji]

Yeh that dreadknight placement was questionable but good fun game

Going ham on that game currently, so glad it's on ps5.. My gaming laptop died over a year ago midway through the game😢

You guys are such teases scheduling these a full day ahead of time 😭 I get so excited when I see a new video pop up only to have to wait until tomorrow!

*Props to Michael; that Grey Knight paint job is the first I've seen that looks like actual metal rather than matte plastic. Well done!*

Thanks man!

[@andrearicciardi1743]

Rooting for the Grey Knights and getting this honorable defeat was totally worth it! Great game!

[@Nedkelly1974]

About time the best faction (*Cough, Grey Knights) got some table time. Congrats to Tyco and more of Nicks commentary.

[@winterwolfcr7]

Love the match up. Makes me think someone has been playing Chaos Gate: Daemon Hunters lately lol

[@Huntorb9023]

WE need Tycho to do some Voice Acting for Nurgle in Video games lol

[@PlayOnTabletop]

If we ever get a call I think he'd oblige

[@Huntorb9023]

@PlayOnTabletop I play a lot of total war warhammer and Tycho sounds exactly like Kugath in game

Man Grey knights vs Deathguard always give me Kaldor Draigo vibes his story is so epic dude cursed to live inside the warp and just walk amongst chaos every single second of its life like its nothing. Dude is an absolute legend.

[@matthewross6045]

Nik is absolutely my favourite player, but JT really does bring the hype as the narrator !

[@redhunter9669]

That inquisitor is standing there holding off a greater daemon. Eyes seared by its acrid aura, Lungs burning from infection, mind reeling from the impossible stench and flesh melting from the acidic vomit. And yet he stands there with nothing more than a blade holding it off until his body can take not more.

[@Notrealmang]

Recently got into the lore of 40k and this is such an interesting table top. And I love the vibe. “I did not wreck your shit” *high-fives* and the narrator reminds of me old Nickelodeon or YTV game shows 😂

Another fun report. I do wish you'd bring in some tournament players with optimised lists now and then as well.

[@PlayOnTabletop]

We have had tournament players come in and have used optimized lists when they do. However, historically the views and watch times on those games are lower than normal. The upcoming 40k in 40m with White Scars and Tyranids a top 5 Tyranid player plays his US Open Tacoma list.

Greetings from the Czech Republic! Thanks a lot for the absolutely amazing battle report. Tycho has an amazing voice and is an amazing showman.

[@jorgemontero6384]

The death guard has trouble with large vehicles, but does really well against marines that have to get in their face... which is exactly what this kind of mixed GK list does. Losing one Dreadknight on turn 1 makes the game much, much harder.
