Necromunda Montage Battle Report S2E10 Escher vs Corpse Grinder Cult

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

We do experience some audio issues with volume and this random popping sound. Hopefully that doesn't ruin the video for you. I tried for a full day to fix it and I can't seem to figure it out. We put a lot of time into these reports so I want to release it. I appreciate your support and I will work to identify the problem and fix it.

[@ThroatSore]

Cash and effort put in to a really good looking Hive.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks man. Thankfully it's something I enjoy and I'm really happy the community has been so receptive to what we've been doing. :)

[@Crimsonphotog]

Another Awesome Report. Great to see tactical experimentation. Glad to see the smoke worked out. Mic issues were minor no worries there. Very Dense, well-painted terrain battlefield. I'm impressed. That is a lot of work in itself.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks! I appreciate the feedback. The enjoyment has been well worth the investment.

[@adammeney8841]

Fantastic!!!! Loving it so far. Looking forward to the finale very much. Keep up the amazing work.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks a bunch!

[@misterymaybe5584]

Great report as always! Thoroughly enjoyed the narrative.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your support.

[@Voicespider]

Good to see an execution that isn't the Grinders defending. Some insane hand to hand in this one! Playing genestealer cult myself you have me considering smoke grenades to get my boys into combat.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Works great as a screen in my opinion. I will carry them on all the initiates moving forward.

[@l.w.1014]

Jeez, the dice were not on the Escher's side here! Almost painful to watch my girls fail so badly xD On a sidenote: there were some loud crackles through the video, such as the one at 15:21. I don't know what caused this, maybe something wrong with your microphone? Very fitting how it will be enforcers vs corpse grinders and eschers vs goliath

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Right, the deck was definitely stacked against them. I would have been very surprised if they pulled it out. And yes, we had some audio issues. I put a note in the description but I feel asleep so I need to pin a comment. I tried all day yesterday trying to fix it. I have no clue where it is coming from as it only happens when I export the video. Thanks again for watching!

[@jasonwingett9553]

Fantastic battle report. Love your camera work.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thank you very much! iPhone 11 for the win! :D

[@Valkanna.Nublet]

Always sad to see an Escher boss lose a punch up, those dice were not kind to her.

[@egorkoshevoy437]

Great videos! But at that moment - 14.07, if you apply all injury results, doesn't your roll mean, that Escher leader gone OOA with all the flash wounds and Hand of crimson was able to consolidate?

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

You are correct, that is an option but any consolidation forward may have exposed him to the Las Guns without cover. I appreciate your support.

[@Shironokaminari]

Another stellar BatRep in the can. Great camera work n editing. Solid battle. Well thought out strategic choice there by the young Master. The ladies coming back in force in the next skirmish against the Meatheads instead of facing them in tatters for a couple possibles on the Corpse Grinders Though I am little bit cautious about getting used to these fabulous BatReps as "the norm" 😉

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

You are too kind my friend. :) Thanks for watching.

[@Shironokaminari]

@@MiniatureGameMontage Always a pleasure. Thank you.

[@stephengilbert8166]

Excellent as always... this is amazing.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks - been fun making them :)

[@Cuthbo]

I love these videos - one of the best looking Hives i've seen!

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks man. It really helps make the game what it is.

[@rikokrates6298]

I've watched all the videos so far and it's great to see the development of tactics and weapon load out choices. I think season 3 will be an excellent one, especially with the new books, gangs and models! Question is how many pets will you be using!?

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks - I have a lot to read still on the new stuff. Have any recommendations?

[@rikokrates6298]

@@MiniatureGameMontage Yaktribe, which I can see you are already familiar with and Goonhammer, specifically their Necromunday articles are where I get all my Necromunda goodness, though I also buy all the books because I love the game ands give them a good read too.

[@Steve-ps6qw]

lol, that popping noise was freaking me out. I thought my laptop was starting to flake out.

[@Michael-ws7rc]

Execution clock…?! Awesome scenario! Fun stuff as usual friend.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Cheers, Michael!

[@kilianlandersman4772]

For the next campaign, will you be using the new gang House books?

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Yes absolutely. We'll try to incorporate all the new equipment and rules. :)

[@gkspain1]

Very nice, scenery and figures look great, have subscribed, all the best Garry

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thank you. Subscribed back to you as well.

[@roselinprimrose1637]

this was a good game corpse grinder had all the vantage with number and that lay are hard in combat plus am looking forward to see orlock are we using both old and new for all gangs

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks for watching and for your comment. :)

[@blathian]

How many sets of dark uprising terrain is that table?

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Just one "official" box set. :) Technically about 2 with some 3d printed compatible items

[@Danishmalt]

Hey there, love the content! I am curious, 3 years ago when you did this. Shock weapons, didnt they auto wound back then?

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Yep! I believe so on a 6 if I’m not mistaken. We probably just missed it.

[@Danishmalt]

@@MiniatureGameMontage Thanks man, I am still new to necromunda, but I remembered there was something with the special qualities on weapons ^^

[@Steve-ps6qw]

I see Escher in the title....that means the Corspe Grinders win. Is that gang horribly under powered? I know GW doesn't believe in balance but the vast majority of the Battle Reports I see with Escher only shows how easy they are to totally destroy. They seem utterly incapable of existing in Necromunda.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

I think we struggle with them a bit. I’m sure in more capable hands they are good 😂

[@Steve-ps6qw]

@@MiniatureGameMontage I built a list for them that puts pistols and knives, not stelletos, in the juves and chain swords and pistols in the champions except the death maidens. They get needle pistol and claw. Leader a plasma pistol and power sword. The toxic stuff is for the death maidens and the mundane stuff for everyone else. The only skill I get for all would be jump up so they can get into melee. I think melee is their best option early.

[@blathian]

Love your terrain layouts and I’m building DU terrain. Did you glue the little individual platform pieces together in set formats? They don’t really snap together on their own

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Yes I did. You kind of have to glue the upper pieces to other sections and form sections that you can use. I consider that a downside but we've made it work. You just build around what you have. I'm working on some 3d print pieces now to add more layers which should help cut costs. I love the DU stuff but man it's expensive.

[@rikokrates6298]

After they are painted they fit together a lot easier and you can use the handrail things to keep them together. That said for my set I did glue a few together to make some square pieces which I felt would be more useful and interesting.

[@Steve_Keen]

Did the +1 Scavenge roll the Lodge got incorporate the -1 Scavenge rolls for the Manufactorium Shortages?

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

No we didn't catch it until post production but we made the adjustment on Yaktribe tracking. Very keen eye on your part! :) We haven't been using the scavenge rolls much so they have been a bit of an after thought. We're limited on physical miniatures so a roll of 10-12 won't work. A roll of 2-5 would be bad because of lasting injuries. I guess the potential for disaster outweighed the benefits. We would need to hit a 6-9 to get anything. Maybe I'm missing some other benefit.

[@Steve_Keen]

@@MiniatureGameMontage I'm learning the game watching your videos, and find the random game effects interesting so it was on my mind.

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

@@Steve_Keen I like the lasting injuries and things like that. The ascendency I feel just becomes one more thing to track. Plus, if you a tie a scenario the side with ascendency wins...which I'm really not a fan of. I can see where scavenge rolls would be beneficial if you had more models to use. Thanks for watching and for commenting.

[@christopherhall9576]

Great stuff

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Thanks!

[@BrokenKrayon]

Long time lurker, new subscriber and commenter, I'm just getting into necromunda but your videos have definitely been the most engaging for me, good story, good scenery, clear information . Love it 🙂 Basically scenery and story always gets me involved something that your chanel and Winters SEO do very well. Any tips for necromunda solo play since lockdown is a thing here in Scotland?

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Awesome, thank you! That's some good company to be named with. Winters SEO does a great job and is someone I subscribe to and watch as well. Tips for a solo player...I guess focus on the narrative. I find the narrative element of Necromunda is what makes the game what it is. My son helps me a tremendous amount and we play the games together but it's all what you make it. :) Cheers!

[@BrokenKrayon]

@@MiniatureGameMontage thanks for taking the time to reply , my son is only 6 so we play really simplified 40k using a grid essentially, would be cool to have a video for how to indoctrin.....eeeehhhh......encourage the kids to get involved , anyways, thanks for the content and hope you and the family have a safe and happy festive period

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

@@BrokenKrayon That would be an interesting video and very relative as many of us older wargamers are having kids of our own now that we want to get into the hobby. I started my son with Memoir 44. It's a World War II board game that I found to be a good starter. Thanks for reaching out. Hope you guys stay well over the holidays. :)

[@rikokrates6298]

There's a solo scenario on Warhammer Community page you could try, you could also modify the rules too. Then there is Blackstone Fortress which has solos for enemy activations which are generated using a table and vary due to their loadouts and line of sight, you could use those and make your own games up.

[@Circuz36GamingChannel]

AHH YES! ANOTHER GREAT BAT REP TO KEEP ME FROM GOING INSANE! GG!

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

Saving you sanity one batrep at a time! :D

[@Circuz36GamingChannel]

yessir! 🤟
