Recollections of Battle: Wrecka Crew vs Tempestus Aquilons ( Kill Team Battle report?)

[@Zimbad_Paints]

tp 1, my tempestor AND the bomb squig were further forwards... thats how i could shoot it tp 2 the krusha was killed by stabby man because the krusha had taken wounds in his 2 fights

[@Zimbad_Paints]

tp3 the boss killed no one... gun fighter to 4 and leader to 1 and knifey squig took nothing gun fighter went into the building and took a shot at both your orks doing some damage you killed him with the fighter by the wall the knife squig killed that fighter with a grenade the other fighter in the building wounded the knife boy with the grenade the leader moved in, onto the objective and shot him with the overwatch shot from the nob killed the grenadier but the melta gun survived

[@TabletopImpulse]

See Zim, you should just make the video :p

[@majortom7186]

I do like this format. It's much easier to follow than random pics, or even a filmed battle report.

[@TabletopImpulse]

Great to know, thank you :)

[@slackeratlarge575]

I like the post battle analysis. Useful review for future games.

[@TabletopImpulse]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@majortom7186]

2:35 I do like Confirm Kill.

[@TabletopImpulse]

Yeah, seems straightforward for some teams. Recon is just the best archetype hands down between that and plant, needs a nerf tbh.

[@malcneuro9405]

I liked it, would merrily watch more of this type. I'd value further depth of thoughts about what worked or what didnt work, and what you'd do differently next time. But yeah, good video, enjoyed it!

[@TabletopImpulse]

Fantastic, thank you for the feedback. If I have a more even game it will probably be easier to provide more tactical nuance.

[@majortom7186]

30:58 I was going to say why not both?

[@TabletopImpulse]

Indeed!

[@slackeratlarge575]

Side note. I’ve heard that Rob the honest Warhammer hosts shatterpoint games at the TSN arena in Nottingham. If your looking for games

[@TabletopImpulse]

I have heard him say this on the juggs podcast, but I have looked on the TSN arena website and couldn't see any shatter point events.

0:00 Introduction 1:35 Battle Report format explanation 2:09 The Battle Prep 5:09 Turning Point 1 11:19 Turning Point 2 18:17 Turning Point 3 24:22 Turning Point 4 27:18 Final Thoughts I enjoyed the video. Could I ask for a few minor tweaks to your main map screen. Could we have a Turning Point X. The time stamps will help but I feel if someone is clicking through they should be able to tell the turning point visually. Next a box for dead and a box for deploy. I know it wont apply to most teams but it would be great on the Aquilons to have a box for the different groups. Currently they just float of the map in undefined space. Part of me like that you had the mission objective on screen in full as then new players can learn. However I don't think you stated which objective was surged in what turn so it was a little hard to follow on that. By the way is this PowerPoint Or OBS we are looking at here?

[@TabletopImpulse]

Thanks for the timestamps. Glad you enjoyed the video. I will try and get some turningpoint labels sorted out. A box for dead and a box for deploy - probably only important when one of the teams is Aquilons, but I will in future. I didn't mention which objectives where surged tp 3 and 4, sorry about that. In TP3 it was the objective on the left of the screen, and on TP4 it was the remaining objective. It's powerpoint running through OBS.

[@MDRLOz]

@@TabletopImpulse We teachers do love our Power Point don't we. No promises on time but could you share the file with me? I'd love to try and make some assets for you to use for this.

[@Pomwarlock]

Hahaha we all knew Zimbad would come to the rescue and correct you :P you said it, we knew it. And there he is hahaha. Loved the video! Please continue to make more of these if they are not too much trouble! Coz it was rather fun to watch!

[@TabletopImpulse]

I will do more but annoyingly not this week - I have to do a parents evening on Thursday.

[@TheLordterrible]

Nice format which could be refined by including some notes from your opponent. As to how to win, I have two ideas; play gallowdark and get those shooty Orks on the table

[@TabletopImpulse]

I will see if Zimbad wants to provide notes, otherwise yeah, shooty orks. Working on it.

[@justjp2784]

Great video, really like the tactical break down of the game sometimes is better than the hold battle report, btw maybe lower the 3d printer speed during record lol it was going ham on the background, great video still

[@TabletopImpulse]

Glad you enjoyed it - 3D printer does indeed go brr :)

[@CrimsonTemplar2]

I like the format.

[@TabletopImpulse]

Cheers thanks for letting me know :)

[@TronsTableTop]

Maybe this is where you take the extra time to set up a ittd map as the wrekka crew might fair better? Great report though. Really enjoyed it

[@TabletopImpulse]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@leeksveeks4572]

I enjoyed it but it was sometime hard to follow where the operative you were talking about was. Maybe you could have a big arrow shape you drop and move around to indicate the location of whatever you’re referring to on the map?

[@TabletopImpulse]

A giant arrow is a great shout, thanks Leeks Veeks.

[@krzysztofdrzewiecki5618]

Title is click bait - I thought that there are new news! ;-)

[@TabletopImpulse]

Title was just wrong Krysztof. I fixed it now. Thanks for the heads up .

[@earnestwanderer2471]

It looked odd. Seemed like you should have been able to stay concealed more. Also just seems like you threw away the bomb squigs for no result. Everyone says that Volkus is a very closed board, and favors melee, but I didn’t see it in this report.

[@TabletopImpulse]

Yeah, I probably did both of those things. I will try not to just throw my bomb squigs away, and give up playing with the portable barricade. I'm struggling though to understand what a useful scouting option is.

[@earnestwanderer2471]

Like on the first or second turn.., your model was in a building, behind the portable barricade and somehow still visible and a valid target? Not on conceal perhaps? Dunno, I don’t yet own the terrain set so I’m not familiar with the setup.
