Necromunda Battle Report S3E4 House Delaque vs House Orlock

[@l.w.1014]

What a rollercoaster! The start with the tense walkup made me think the more melee-focused Orlocks would certainly have the edge, and for a moment it looked like they did! But then the devilishly tough Delaques tanked through the damage and hit back, and hard! When they took out two Orlocks, it seemed like the battle was won, but damn, that Argo is a beast! High damage all around. When he started swinging, the Delaques crumpled! They only pulled though by the skin off their teeth. The finale was very tense, but luckily for the Delaques Argo ran, otherwise it might have ended a lot more messy.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Agreed. The Iron Stare makes him a wild card. Snake Eyes only had one flesh wound to give so he was done. I was thinking if he did take him down I was going to flee. lol. Not going to risk two champions going down to that guy. Thanks for watching!

[@craigjones7343]

This was my favourite scenario back in N95. It’s great to see it played in N17. I really enjoyed watching this video.

[@jb2850]

Brutal game! Loving the Necromunda games. Keep them coming.

[@sylntghost007]

Watching your battle reports is like watch a tv show.thanks so much for the awesome content.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

My pleasure buddy. Love bringing the game to life. Thanks for watching

[@ArdWulf]

That was tense to watch!! Loved the lighting effects in the intro...set the tone quite nicely. Both of You played the scenario well, save the error on the bottle test, but it happens...as both play more, fewer miscalcs will occur. Cheers, guys!

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching. :)

[@Circuz36GamingChannel]

This is the coolest channel ever! *Grabs popcorn*

[@marcociabattini1854]

Keep on with these great fights! Love how you bring to life the beautiful atmosphere of Necromunda's setting!

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks! I definitely see more to it than just being a game of kill everyone. Happy to share it.

[@tomwinkelspecht7796]

Love the board and great lighting shots in the the open.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks! :)

[@flashheart69]

That Arc hammer is a fearsome weapon! that'll do a lot of damage in future battles Great Battle report again

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Yes and I think my son fully realizes now that he can charge that guy in first. Brutal weapon!

[@jamiemoresco3885]

Great game , very entertaining indeed. Keep up the great work.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks, will do!

[@rikokrates6298]

Good fun as always, really liked the lighting effects, spooky Delaque turning the lights off? How very apt.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Right! The darkness is their camouflage.

[@adammeney8841]

Arc Hammer. Wooooft! Crazy mission. Felt like the Orlocks were up against it from the crew rolls. Lovely report.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks. Brutal weapon!

[@Freeourfriends]

Fantastic battle report again. Well done for sticking with the mission rolled, it ensures each episode is unpredictable and it is great to see the variety of missions.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thank you, sir :)

[@superluckyhappylife2358]

Simple yet delicate.

[@lastredever]

Great episode! Also lighting was really cool to. Looking forward to seeing the next one

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Awesome, thank you! I was a bit worried about the lighting.

[@Voicespider]

The blue splashes of paint stand out really well on the floor and I love it. Overall a good battle and had a good level of tension leading up to the pulling of their guns. Also that hammer is a beast.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks! I love some Arc Hammer!

[@fain0077]

Recently discovered your channel. I love your work. You’ve gotten me more than re interested in Necromunda. Now my wallet needs to match closer to my wishes so I can get back into it. I think Hive Wars will be my 1st purchase since it has my two favorite gangs, Delaque and Esher. Not very much in the way of terrain but it get me started.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Welcome! That’s great to hear. Honestly terrain can be so expensive. That’s why I ventured into 3D printing to help supplement. I still own and use original kits but 3D printing some extra walls and columns have really helped out.

[@SusCalvin]

Shootout was a scenario where two small groups stumble into eachother with no planning whatsoever. You are in a settlement when you see the other blokes, no one really knows what to do but you also don't want to fold. It's right inside a settlement so none of you want to be the one to draw first.

[@superluckyhappylife2358]

I already said its once.I will say it again.the narative is like something outof a comic book.that when come back,I still felt the thrill and joy of the action.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks!

[@Zaxus]

This game was fantastic! "Obey the dice and never question them again," Seemed to be the right call! That was a very interesting mission. The updates for coup de grace rules in Dark Uprising from requiring targets to be within 1" to simply being Engaged really makes versatile weapons more powerful. Really made Argo even more of a beast.

[@Zaxus]

Be careful with those Amazon affiliate links. I've seen other people have those things and... "interesting" things can pop up on those lists.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Right now that I understand it I can coach my son a bit more. That combined with iron stare is really wild. I was really nervous about the scenario so I’m glad it was well received.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Lol :)

[@Zaxus]

@@MiniatureGameMontage It's a great idea for a scenario. It would completely break down with corpse grinders, though,I think...

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

@@Zaxus I thought the same. Corpse Grinders and anything with Infiltrate would be hard...which oddly enough is Corpse Grinders, lol

[@roland9189]

Very nice work with the Lightning.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks! Trying some new things :)

[@DislocatedDesign]

Good fight, I like the narrative you add to the game and I am pleased the House I support (narrowly) won this confrontation for the mine-works.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks for watching and leaving your feedback.

[@battlebrotherguy]

¡EXERRENT! Great Fight. The lighting for shootout was very cool May be my favourite MGM Necromunda barrel to date. Every single dice roll swung that fight. So good. I will never sleep on an arc hammer ever. Argo did some work as a pipe hitter. Hope you guys enjoyed as much as we do.. Cheers

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks a lot! :)

[@j4bb3rw0ck]

Whoo! Victory for Delaque! That was actually pretty close, surprisingly. Love these videos :)

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks! Very close! Thanks for watching.

[@jasongaylard2547]

That double six save was a clutch moment.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks buddy. You've been here since pretty much the beginning. :)

[@Lewis-TheNthLevel]

Really love this Necromunda series! You've found a perfect mix of dramatics and technical explaination. I don't really use Amazon, but I'd be happy to chuck you a few quid every month on Patreon if it would help you :)

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Great to hear! No worries on Amazon or Patreon! The content will keep on coming and I never plan to make it anything other than free. :)

[@Lewis-TheNthLevel]

@@MiniatureGameMontage that's very generous of you! I'm just getting into Necromunda, and your videos have been instrumental in getting me hooked! Looking forward to seeing many more in the future, and with any luck, I'll be able to contribute to the bank of Necromunda videos on KZbin in the future :)

Awesome I look forward to watching :)

[@frankodonnell5247]

It's a strange mission but it lived upto the usual high standards, so we'll done 👍😊

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks! It was an odd one for sure.

[@Slechy_Lesh]

It was very fitting after the history between them.

[@stephengilbert8166]

A nice alternative style of game and the lighting effect was extremely immersive.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks! I think I want to invest in some lights.

[@SebbStrife]

Another great report and the best Shoot Out one I’ve seen. Keep them coming! One thing, and I might very well be wrong or have missed it, shouldn’t both gangs have taken bottle checks at the end of the Quick Draw round due to the OOA & SI? I thought it could be that the QD round was a separate entity so didn’t follow End Phase steps but you rolled recovery for the Delaque. Also, why were you rolling 2D6 for priority? Doesn’t really matter of course but I haven’t noticed you do it before. All queries just for clarifying in my own mind and games and not criticism. Thanks again for the sweet content.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

You’re right. So in the notes it didn’t say anything about having an “end phase” in the quick draw. So maybe I was wrong about rolling the recovery there or not rolling potential bottle tests. It just didn’t specify. So we agreed to do recovery and no bottle to keep the game lively bc we felt it could be really short if fighters start running immediately. Also that’s funny you caught those priority rolls. We just played a game of Kill Team so my brain was on that, lol. Thanks for your feedback!

I have nothing too add but leaving a comment for algorithm

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thank you! :)

[@Wendelvendel]

Seconded ahahahha

[@blathian]

Are you rolling on the Dominion campaign mission chart? Or where are you choosing your missions

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Kind of pulling from all over the place. Got a list of about 25 scenarios and roll a random number generator to determine. One thing we didn’t like about the dark uprising campaign in season 2 was limiting ourselves to 6 scenarios. So we opened it up. Goonhammer has been a massive help.

[@blathian]

@@MiniatureGameMontage can you post your list?

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Sure can but will be on Monday. On a small vacation :)

[@codywinig9894]

Another great game .

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks Cody!

[@Zaxus]

Something I didn't notice before, but how did Moose charge into Raven's side like that? I thought charges had to be made using the shortest path possible? If it wasn't like that, there's no reason not to charge into people's sides, but that's unrealistic. Was he trying to avoid being withing 1" with Sinfall? I think you can end up within 1" of targets you are not directly engaging with a charge as long as you end up base-to-base with one of them.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Not technically I think. Like if you are 4” away from an enemy fighter and you have a 5” move you would still roll a charge. Let’s say you roll up an 8” charge. You could technically maneuver to their back. Unless I’m missing an FAQ I didn’t read the shortest path has to be taken. I did that for moose because he has that jump pack and forcing Raven to turn to face would be -1 to hit on counter attacks.

[@Zaxus]

@@MiniatureGameMontage I think it's hidden in the actual movement rules. I'll look it up. ... Yep. Page 35 in the Dark Uprising rulebook hidden near the end of the second paragraph under "moving models." At least it isn't as bad as the hidden rules you still stumble over 7 years later in the 3.5 d&d books. So many...

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

@@Zaxus LOL oh my gosh. It's like the last sentence in the second paragraph. It's funny because a few pages earlier under "Charging" is where I was looking and it mentions nothing about it. That's why they need to clean this stuff up. Thanks for pointing out that error!

[@richmcgee434]

Brutal postgame results there. That's going to be hard to come back from.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Yeah we wait until after to report injuries and as we roll them the first is a 6 and you’re like, it’s already not good, lol.

[@richmcgee434]

@@MiniatureGameMontage We generally roll them during the battle, mostly because getting something terrible affects decisions about whether to bottle or not. Also anyone who gets bonus XP from that one messy kill result immediately has a target painted on their head because payback is a thing. :)

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

@@richmcgee434 That's a good way to look at it! That is the way it should be done. I'll try to incorporate it moving forward. :)

[@richmcgee434]

@@MiniatureGameMontage Honestly don't think it matters all that much, no matter what the rules say about it. I suspect the biggest plus to the "official" way is that you won't forget to roll for anyone's serious injury during postgame. The other influences of rolling "in-game" are pretty minor. Except for immediately starting the headhunt for that SOB who just earned bonus XP for blowing you favorite champ's head clean off his shoulders, of course. :)

[@liquidsnail7305]

This game is too brutal... House Delaque remembered the name 'Moose' from him killing their assassin and got their revenge! RIP

You’re on a roll!
