Awesome to see Raven Guard on the table.

[@SNBattleReports]

Enjoy! 🔥

[@R4til3]

That World Eater Preator was too angry to die!

[@SNBattleReports]

@@R4til3 yeah why die when you can kill?

[@shieck3178]

I love seeing the movement. Constructive criticism might be raise the angle for ZM just because of all the walls. So glad to see it and I loved the narative battle sounds during it.

[@pascal9055]

“7 is the pinnacle.” Pardo, Nurgle Cultist confirmed?

[@SNBattleReports]

🤫

[@heresyhobbyist]

the goat has returned

[@SNBattleReports]

Haha he has! 🐐

[@sf6break]

I love the use of indomitus pattern terminators! I also love the use of more chaos models for later in the heresy.

[@SNBattleReports]

Yeah lovely to add for more late heresy era

[@vitaliyred622]

Another jawdropping army, once more HH is a treat! Fantastic, maybe a full game of these amazing Raven Guard?

[@SNBattleReports]

We have a full game on the members section buddy.

[@CaptainEshara]

nice game, ok so what really impressed me was the sped up shots of movement from a fixed perspective with a small chat about the tactical decisions of why at the end, movement phase is dull on film, so having it sped up was totally cool, I'd like to see that continue, as i felt you had it at a good speed, I also liked the fixed camera, sometimes I feel like I'm getting sea sick with handy cam battle reports, not just SN, other channels as well. I hope you don't find that too harsh as I can also appreciate the huge sheer cost of alternative set ups, I still like a bit of hand cam because of the personal nature and immediate nature I still love SNs HH contents, thanks

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the constructive feedback

[@CygnusMaximusXIII]

Watching all those Gets Hot rolls makes me glad I can stick a character with a Cyber-Hawk in my plasma squads! There's also a faster way to do plasma: roll for the sergeant's two shots first, then roll one shot for each normal squad member - if any of those get hot, roll the second shot just for those, then roll any remaining shots all together. It's still janky, but it's a bit faster! Also, there's a box on pg. 199 of the rulebook called "Heroic Stand" that says: "A unit that consists of a single Character cannot refuse a challenge."

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks for the pointers buddy

[@jaegerbomb269]

Beaks for life! Go Raven Guard!

[@SNBattleReports]

[@Black_Blow_Fly]

YEAH BABEEEEEE ❤❤❤ Both armies look oh soooooo beautiful 🔥🔥

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks Steve

[@CaptainEshara]

preators name, Atrox, bane of ravens Atrox, latin name for 'savage and bloody'

[@SNBattleReports]

Love it

[@ChazWalser]

Been awhile since I’ve seen anyone use Raven Guard

[@SNBattleReports]

Hope you enjoyed it

[@ChazWalser]

Hopefully one day. I’ll see the Carcharodons in action

[@vladapatera123]

lets go, we are the ravens lord sentance

[@SNBattleReports]

🔥

[@jameswilloughby4381]

Love the sped up movement bit

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks you will see this from now on

[@bobmylan9434]

Great to Watch a zone mortalis game ! Thx guys

[@SNBattleReports]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@johnroberts8793]

Opinion: if you're the person shooting the plasma weapons you should be allowed the choice to speedroll accepting worst case scenario for quality of life improvement. Snake eyes don't happen statistically enough for slo-roll

[@joseluismunozgonzalez7615]

Great add my man, I was about to do that. But to make more fair according to the rules I believe we did the right thing! I love what you say, which is what I normally do! ❤

[@Thedagda801]

Brilliant , those armies are gorgeous!

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@crwarren]

If there is only 1 character in the unit, but there are other models (non-character) then they can choose to reject the challenge, but the character cannot fight. If the unit is a single character on their own, they cannot reject the challenge.

[@crwarren]

Refusing a challenge p199 of the main rule book

[@crwarren]

Heroic Stand - p199 of the main rulebook

[@benjaminbrenner745]

Thank you :)

[@SNBattleReports]

You're welcome!

[@TheCainPrince]

Loved this one

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks Champ!

[@Critimmun]

Awesome battle report guys 🔥🔥 Love your content 🔥🔥

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@afiqhamid4374]

SN Squad Assemble!

[@SNBattleReports]

Boom! 💥

[@blasky1173]

Fantastic bat rep as always SN

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks again!

[@astrosoniq459]

Nice game again, really enjoy the ZM setting. Question: wouldn’t the plasma guys block line of sight for the shooting bolters in the first turn?

[@SNBattleReports]

Units don’t block line of sight if you can see through them then you can shoot but you get a cover save for intervening models

[@JarrettBeck]

Halfway through and this is an absolute massacre lol

[@SNBattleReports]

Hahaha it really was

[@TM-oy9qo]

yay RG!!

[@SNBattleReports]

♥️

[@yurybarsukov6166]

Like and comment to support the channel as usual) This preator is a best!

[@SNBattleReports]

You're the best!

[@tempestwargaming]

Praetor Tyr Shawkyn, Master of the .......

[@SNBattleReports]

🙌🏽

[@dannydepp69]

MC Hammer on the rampage x

[@SNBattleReports]

Hahaha love it! What a beast

[@rryannn1]

he's cooking with those raven guard.

[@SNBattleReports]

Yes he is 🧑‍🍳

[@caseymon55]

Wouldnt that Praetor be dead after the second round of combat? I thought they only had 3 wounds.

[@SNBattleReports]

Didn’t he just loose 2 wounds?

[@Garsty]

Did the Plasma Squad not have the techmarine with them so would be hitting on 2+ ?

[@Garsty]

42-43rd minute into the terminators

[@SNBattleReports]

Will need to double check

[@joseluismunozgonzalez7615]

For that purpose you have to equip him with cognis signum, but in zone Mortalis is more efficient the augury scanner, which is the equipment he has. So, no. He doesn’t hit on 2.

[@Garsty]

​@joseluismunozgonzalez7615 thank you my mistake I thought techmarine gave the +1BS by default 🤦‍♂️

[@danimm2831]

Great armies and ZM ❤

[@SNBattleReports]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@user-so7mk5ej7u]

near 56 min, terminators must charge a line unit?? Rite of war rules?

[@SNBattleReports]

Yeah maybe would need to double check

[@g13agb]

Can't wait to see more custodes on the table especially in zone mortalis

[@Black_Blow_Fly]

GOLDEN BOIZZZZZ ❤❤❤

[@vitaliyred622]

Why? They are second to only Mechanicus the most busted and broken army in the game!

[@hannahgeraghty4201]

​@@vitaliyred622they have one broken build and that's infantry spam. Other than that they're typically weaker than a well balanced marine list and no match for a tuned list.

[@Erishkigal84]

thunderhammer is brutal 2

[@SNBattleReports]

@@Erishkigal84 yes sir!

[@blastvader]

Love ZM. Zero interest in 'full' HH.
