[@andreasostensson5747]

Drsdemona for MVP. Maybe not the most important actions for the scenario, but the coolest.

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Rule of cool is effect! The railway rifle is one of my new favourite weapons after this game

[@thomaswilliams5005]

Loving the special effects

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Cheers! The extra FX take a bit longer to edit, but adds a little Fallout flair

[@gal0n851]

Desdemona got really lucky with rolls against Courser, but overall she's definatelly MVP for me. Cool batrep as always, thanks Ryan for testing Railroad in the field! Hope to test them soon too!

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Glad you enjoyed! Let me know how they go for you, they're a surprisingly fun faction so far

[@patrioticmucus2329]

MVP is hands down Desdemona. She was just deadly with that railway rifle

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

It's a really fun weapon! At close range it always packs an extra punch with that blue die

[@grimalldi4526]

Lucky dice for sure

[@georgekeith6468]

My vote is the Doctor. He got the more difficult objective, he has movement, and is a healer. Unless the final mission is a slug fest, he is my pick.

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Interesting vote! He got a lot done for sure - sacrifice the body for the play!

[@CraigSteinhoff]

Very nice! Been waiting for the railroad to hit the channel. MVP Desdemona :)

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Glad you enjoyed the battle, more Railroad to come for sure!

[@Slenderage]

Railroad victory, you love to see it. Or at least I do. Des and that railway rifle take my pick for MVP, but the whole team did work this game. Makes me excited to play my own railroad lists.

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Cheers! They really are a fun faction, lots of utility and buffs to spread around to your units

[@Myuska2288]

I have to admit, you got a good chuckle out of me when you said "With a sizzle and a pile of ash Dr. Carrington is gone". Not a fun way to go! That said, while Dr. Carrington pulled more than his weight in ashes in achieving the objective, I'm gonna give my MVP vote to Desdomona. Not only did her passive ability really help the RR cinch this win, but she got really lucky with that courser and took down her fair share of synths. I'm actually impressed with how well synched the RR characters seem to be!

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Hahaha ya the poor doctor got singed pretty bad. Very fun faction to play so far, a ton of utility with all the names characters

[@charlesglover4900]

MVP Desdemona, the comfort grip made the difference. can you get mods for the mini-gun to make it easier to hit. great content as always 👍

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Good question! There's the Heavy Weapon Mount that can grant a green die when using a heavy weapon. It's not a mod, but a stationary utility item. Something to consider if dealing with a hoarde of synths!

[@chipparker1331]

A very intensive scenario, I was glued to the screen! A sincere Thank You for releasing this early for Patreon supporters. All of you who are not WGNR Patreon supporters, you really, really should be! Even though the Doc, who will be remembered in the Hall of Heroes, and Glory, who almost lived up to her name, attempted some really heroic stuff, the MVP just has to be Desdemona. (Wow, that's a bunch of commas in one sentence)

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Cheers, Chip! Glad you enjoyed the fight - it was a tense battle for sure! Always try and do the early release when I can as a tip of the hat. More coming soon!

[@williamholmes9195]

Dude that was intense! I loved it! Hard to pick just one, the whole railroad held up their end of the bargain (so to say) but in the end it has to be Desdemona. She took out their strongest char out single handed. Way to go! Ryan you are awesome!

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

No YOU'RE awesome! Thanks so much for watching and for the kind words. This game was a ton of fun - one of my favorite batreps yet!

[@shawncarnes9471]

I just got around to watching this. Great fun as always Ryan et al. Tactics/Rules question: In round 3, you tried to tie up the Courser by charging in with Glory, but she missed her Perception roll. Rules as written, would it have been legal to charge the Synth standing next to the Courser and just "happen to" end up in base contact with the Courser as well?

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Interesting, I think you're on to something here! Charging one model and ending in B2B (either as part of the move or through a close combat slide) *should* be technicaly legal to ensnare a stealthed Courser without testing Perception. Going to file this away in the "how do you kill these things?!" file!

[@allenforbes8108]

Though call, without Desdimona, the doctor wouldn't have all that high end performance at the beginning, which allowed Des to be first class at the end...However Tinker Tom handing out some great starting treats and making for a great tech. Honestly if the situation could be made, I think your special force verus the railroad would be a great showing, because the Railroad is an actual team. Honestly with the mvps that ou have I would look for holes and fill those with one of those three.

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Interesting! There's something special in the works for the finale, but an all-star vs. Railroad fight would be a good time, too

[@lesliestevenson5261]

I like it. After one of the members is killed and you say they are reduced to pile of ash it set me to thinking. Mini project to make: those red piles of ash you find when roaming the wastes. Thick pva and pile up sand and then paint it a glowing red sort of colour. Like a casualty marker. Just a bit of fun obvs no bearing on the game. Interesting to see them in play. I rated desdemona most.

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

That's a BRILLIANT idea! I'm gonna try making some of those just for kicks!

[@lesliestevenson5261]

@@WarGamesNewsRadio cool. Do it!

[@petermckibben1657]

Great fun to watch dude. Two factions I have never played... the railroad look really interesting. Desdimona for MVP, she was proper badass taking out that courser.

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Any time you can get a double-kill will cement badass status no doubt!

[@grimgrauman7650]

Nice Battle report!

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Much appreciated, and thanks so much for watching!

[@enclave_soldier.]

Hyped for the finally

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Wont be long now! Just need to get the dang thing edited!

[@OccupyArnhem]

Take down a courser and you get MVP! Desdemona of course(r).

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

hahahaha nice word play! Des has a comanding lead so far

[@enclavehere.2281]

Enclave here. Why isn't your video feed working?

[@Heatsaber]

Desdemona was the best, lol.

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

Right?! The double kill really turned the tide

[@grimalldi4526]

My vote is the Doctor

[@martinouellet3540]

Desdemona for the win!

[@WarGamesNewsRadio]

That railway rifle is just nutty

[@martinouellet3540]

@@WarGamesNewsRadio Thanks for adding the sound effect btw... so satisfying! ;)
