Middle Earth Grand Championship! ~Dunland vs Last Alliance

[@johnbili1717]

That was awesome. Really enjoyed the season. Jeremy’s sinister laugh when he makes a good move is hilarious. Love the Chanel 😊

[@ConquestCreations]

Thanks for the comment mate! I'm glad you enjoyed it

[@jeremyshannon7482]

Can’t be an evil player without a sinister laugh!

[@RobSmith-dm7gj]

Loved this series, and thank you to the players that took their time to explain why they made the tactical choices they did.

[@brodi4894]

I really enjoy these battle reports. They're genuinely good. I think it's a combo of both how you guys do them as well as the game that's being played. Seems like it's just easier to follow.

[@naphtoe622]

I really enjoyed this series. Looking forward to more.

[@ConquestCreations]

Season 2 is on the way

[@nhattuyenvodieu3103]

@@ConquestCreations pleas papa jacob do it! btw i have the feeling you could compress the speaking voices together a little bit more. sometimes i feel that the volume difference is a little harsh. but very good production!

[@hav6301]

Absolutely brutal game! 5:50 Jeremy: "don't wanna lose a horse", Jacob: "that'd be devastating for a big hero". Then Jacob loses Gil Galad's horse 1 minute later XD

[@adamdarmody6069]

Amazing work and the models are absolutely stunning. Well done both 👍

[@ConquestCreations]

Thanks for the comment, I'm glad you liked it

[@Noobslayar]

Wish we got a post-game message from Jeremy. He’s so high-energy normally I wanted to see how excited he would be after becoming the champion.

[@steward3008]

Really enjoyed watching these. I think it's great to have cut aways mid-game to hear what both players are thinking. Keep it going man!

[@cptdeacon88]

Congratulations on the Win Jeremy, been wanting to watch you play for ages. You played a gerat game Jacob, love your videos. I'm keen to see you play harder than ever in the next season 🙂

[@JMACCSArmiesOfMiddleEarth]

What a beautiful board for the final. Epic theme too, wild men raiding a Numenorian town.

[@craigcameron3378]

Excellent series, thanks for sharing. And a brilliant close finale

[@ConquestCreations]

Thanks for the comment! Be on the look out for season 2

[@joshmortimer3433]

As a result of this tournament I have just purchased some Dunland 2nd hand, they look alot of fun to play with,

[@NoobsandMen]

Ah excellent, the curse we put on those dice worked out nicely! Fantastic series mate, some stellar games and a very interesting result! Go Dunland! -Liam

[@mediocreranger]

Typical Last Alliance 🙃 Cursing dice. I need to try that. Do I curse mine or theirs?

[@deanparsons2895]

Really really really enjoyed that! Lovely cup-of-tea watch. Well done all!

[@skeeter8326]

Tense game! Jeremy kept slugging till the end despite some early setbacks. I think whilst playing back on the defensive gave Jacob a mid game advantage in the long run it was severely detrimental as it all hinges on the captains breakout. Great game and tactics from both sides though. I look forward to season 2!!

[@wazzok2973]

Great battle report as ever. My only feedback would be more consistency with the talking heads segments. Maybe structure it so pre priority you have the players discuss the turn and what they need to do next. Currently it's a bit jarring having it jump to someone for two seconds for them to not really say much of note.

[@ConquestCreations]

Thanks for the feedback. In this video it was a bit of an after thought. I want to get better at integrating it

[@JohnnyTightIips]

Watched all the league, really fun stuff. Thanks!

[@shadowknight8345]

Fantastic game, really well played by both parties. Building a Last Alliance army at the moment and this has given me a lot of inspiration

[@ΑνδρέαςΧριστόπουλος-σ9μ]

Great game! The dice could have gone better for the elves against those archers but still part of the game we love! Those damn birds keep you thinking about them every single turn...That is huge advantage! Cant wait for next season🇬🇷

[@TabletopCollective]

Working my way through this now! Already excited for the next season. :) Someday we'd love to make the Trek overseas and roll some dice with the awesome MESBG community you guys have over there! I've been thinking about slowly putting a Dunland army together, seeing Jeremy's list is realllyy convincing me to do it! - Boone

[@princev8283]

Loved this season, was cheering laat alliance playing with it myself , happy they got far , i got gil galad elendil combo at 650, few models but 2 big threats , not alot of might, but blood and glory and free heroic combats, high fight values making opponent use might should negate that , goos game

[@smoothbrush4722]

Gg Jeremy. Nice envelopment tactics, true Erwin Rommel style. Good fight for the elves and man, i though that strong elf hero will win the fight. Nice painted and based on both sides. Looking forward for season 2.

Great report! Congrats to Jeremy!

[@Seereeq]

Nice vid, can’t wait until 2nd season. Great work! ;)

[@marcdelabarreraibardalet4754]

Nice content, enjoyed the Championship a lot. However, note that if the title of the video says the two contenders, just by watching it we know who won the last battle! KZbin algorithm spoiled me the semi-finals...

[@ThatNathan]

This has been a great series. Congratulations to the winner

[@whiteboyfrik5864]

Great final, starting to learn a little about the game since it seems awesome. A friendly advice, try to normalize volume between your voice and opponent, since the once sounds much louder than the other. Awesome content and keep up the good work!

[@AF-kj2zl]

I love the Dunland models!

[@pookelywoo3954]

Great concept and execution! Hope more is coming

[@Jewus19]

Good series! Very entertaining! Hyped for season two! Pretty onesided in the finale objective wise. Damn those line elves killed like two dunlandings during the whole game x( pretty depressing combat wise. Gilly at least did what gilly does best 💪

[@donbarnett7137]

Really enjoyed this. Well done to all the players.

[@craig3111]

I know the ‘pushed back’ rules isn’t always enforced In Friendly games but in a competitive setting like this you should enforce it. The oathkeeper was likely trapped in that combat. Despite him being killed, it could have become important. He never retreated a full inch!

[@ConquestCreations]

Thanks for the comment. it probably wasn't as easy to see on camera. We always play with 1" back aways we just usually do it after damage is resolved to save time. In this case it may not have been apparent but the oathkeeper could back up onto the stairs behind him.

[@jeremyshannon7482]

Agree with Jacob that we try to enforce it in friendly games. It is possible we made a mistake- easy to do when trying to film, play and provide narration!

[@klowatcanioxd8974]

Jeremy's presentation is still in my head.. So scary xd

[@Caesar_221]

Considering some matchups can be one-sided, maybe for future tournaments doing double elimination so players have a chance to come back if they have an unlucky game.

[@mtuktuk9627]

Real enjoyed all the games, i hope the next season is coming soon ;)

[@ConquestCreations]

Season 2 is well under way you won't have to wait long!

[@Kircholm]

Great tournament, Cannot w8 to see more!

[@carlopulcini9585]

In the turn when GIl-Galad called the heroic combat and charged an huscarl and the Oathmaker Dunland had priority. Why didn't Jeremy decided to split Gil-Galad combat only into the huscarl so that he could avoid having the Oathmaker fighting Gil-Galad?

[@jeremyshannon7482]

Most likely and oversight on my behalf. I was a bit put off by Gil-Galad moving through the two Huscarls- thought they were less than a base apart.

[@carlopulcini9585]

Thank you for replying Jeremy, much appreciated. I love your work with the green dragon. And I love this channel too Jacob :) thank you both

[@peterbakker3016]

High quality content (as always).

[@hlm896]

27:07 The birds didn't look like they had line of sight to charge here?

[@firstfighter7037]

Very nice Terrain! I'm looking for such Ruins/Buildings with these Pillars. Where can i find it? Best Regards...

[@JIMMYtheB0B]

So stoked Jeremy went all the way!

[@mediocreranger]

At 23:25, would Gil-Galad need to charge a Dunlending to his left? It seems there were two control zones he bypassed without charging.

[@ConquestCreations]

It's a tricky one but I've checked over the rules on it several times to double check. Because he is charging into the closest huscarl he is able to move through the control zones of the other models

[@mediocreranger]

@@ConquestCreations Ah. I couldn't see that that huscarl was the closest. If that's the case, I agree. Thanks for responding! -Daniel

[@bryanknecht6860]

Top battle report. Where can I get greek style terrain?🤔

[@adrianflores2624]

Can any one put full rivendel on the table

[@Trisaart]

At last! the last game in the contest!, however It seems the last alliance couldnt last, atleast you did not come last with your last alliance

[@EntmootVideos]

Nice bat rep - lovely armies, though i couldn't work out what model you used for gil galad's dismount, was it a glorfindel? Well done to Jeremy on the win - looking forward to the next series!

[@cjjulius4138]

Gil galad dismount was kinda disappointing, looked like erestor, not even a spear

[@montelugo3908]

HI: How could the numenorean charge Gorulf without entering the control zones of the dunlendings at 26:25 ?

[@ConquestCreations]

Hi Thanks for the comment. The Numenorian left the first control zone to charge the model next to Gorulf then wrapped into Gorulf. If it was out of sequence it would have been as easy one to fix up by moving one model into the huscarl

[@montelugo3908]

@@ConquestCreations Thanks, now I understand. Great video, well played to you both, and congratulations to Jeremy.

[@lordsauron8811]

I expect more easterling games

[@ikkiiiieee]

at 35:08 we see the underside of jeremy's wildman base, was this a resin base or is it like a fridge magnet? Looks very cleanly done if it is a magnet

[@jeremyshannon7482]

I put rare earth magnets (so the model sticks to my transport trays) in my bases using a dot of superglue and cover with a bit of modelling putty. They are then filled in with quick dry wood filler (and sanded). It is a habit from the days when models would be put on their side when knocked over.

[@ikkiiiieee]

@@jeremyshannon7482 I have NEVER seen anyone doing it that way, it sounds brilliant. So much so I think you should make a post about it! Because the magnet doesn't touch the surface directly (putty in between) I assume they're not that firmly attached? I assume the putty is so you don't sand it by accident? Doesn't the filler ever loosen or crumble? I've always filled with putty rather than a filler on the underside because of that fear.

[@EdwardWB97]

I hope to see some more Fangorn some time

[@ConquestCreations]

Good news! They are on their way, one of the players in Season 2 of the Conquest Champions League is bringing them

[@szymonstachura3792]

Great gameplay but why do you use Glorfindel instead of Gil-galad? ;)

[@ConquestCreations]

Hahaha you weren't supposed to notice! I didn't have the right model as a dismount

[@charlienott6619]

Hi I'm a huge fan of the channel and I'm just looking for an army thats good at all points leaves hard to play but powerful and something you don't see on the table 2 often . Also if it don't break the bank What would you suggest Thanks Ps great battle

[@leonk.3739]

I guess the Black Riders legendary legion is great for what you want (especially if you buy 3rd party Nazguls). They are very competitive at different points levels but extremely hard to use because you only have up to 9 models (at lower points it can even be just 5). However, this is NOT a beginner army and you will probably lose a lot of games before you start to get some wins (and some players think that this list is unfun to play against). You could also go for a Rivendell knights list (so Elrond mtd and at least 10 knights. At higher points you will probably add an other hero like Gandalf, Aragorn or Legolas and more knights).
