Return of the King vs Army of Thror/Iron Hills 600pt MESBG Battle Report

[@anyheroics]

Please note that although we say 10 Guardians of the King, the list has 12 and this is correctly pointed and paid for in the list! Apologies for this and the mistake with Thror and Heroic Defence! ~Stephen

[@NoobsandMen]

Wait this isn't the last alliance of noobs and men????? Could have fooled me 🤣🤣 Love the work lads, another killer batrep. -Sean

No one wants to hear our terrible Australian accents. We can only hope to produce the same top quality content, as our favourite boys down under! - Josh

[@NoobsandMen]

@@anyheroics we want a full video done in an Aussie accent plz haha. -Sean

[@anyheroics]

@@NoobsandMen I'm doing it. Long have Josh and Elliot said no but here is my chance! Did you see the easter egg at the end of one of our other videos? ~Stephen

New favourite batrep channel

[@anyheroics]

Thanks Craig! Means a lot when there's so many awesome channels out there :) ~Stephen

[@Daylightgamers11]

Looks like you guys may have forgotten about dains 'iron hills dwarves within 12" auto pass courage tests' special rule here. And also headbutt, though to be fair everyone forgets that.

[@Sierra117Masterchief00]

Great job, you guys rocks. Keep it up!

[@anyheroics]

Thanks mate! ~Elliot

[@richardcassidy3297]

Another great battle report guys!

[@ItsQuiteCool]

"There are red dice that dwell in the dice tray." "Murderers, traitors, you would call upon them to roll? They believe in nothing, they keep rolling a one." 😂 Another great rep! 🙂

[@anyheroics]

This is perfect 😅 - Josh

[@ki5u]

finally friday and br :D

[@anyheroics]

We're always here to bring on the weekend, enjoy! - Josh

[@finnbruton7274]

Good game. Was always gunna be hard for the dwarves vs blades of the death. I’d love to see Return of the King vs the white council. Ghost blood bath.

[@seanlotr]

Love these videos as a returning player of the game. Can't wait to get my army finished.

[@anyheroics]

Thanks Sean! What are you painting atm? ~Elliot

[@JDWidhalm]

I started with Return of the King LL. Literally played almost this exact game with a buddy in my gaming group also running Iron Hills on the same scenario. Our game ended up with a win for RotK. So yeah, can confirm, it is very survivable and forgiving.

[@anyheroics]

Its a very forgiving and straightforward army to introduce players to the game. I still believe it can perform in tournaments with experienced players. - Josh

[@HelloAgain212]

Loving the content, keep the bat reps coming! Ever thought about doing tournament reviews? Looks like you lads have been busy on the GBHL listings, so your insight would be awesome to watch.

[@anyheroics]

We have filmed some in the past and have either been too tired or busy at the end of the weekend. Definetley something we want to aim to do in the future! Thanks, Samuel. - Josh

[@HelloAgain212]

@@anyheroics Awesome to know, I'll look back through the channel. I appreciate the energy dip post events, looking at the GBHL listing you have all been busy. 🤣 Well done on those results, I hope you all manage to be in a similar position by the end of the year, you all deserve it.

[@anyheroics]

@@HelloAgain212 I think we all want to do them but as Josh says, we all just get a bit tired after 2 days! We'll try and do some in the next few months :) ~Stephen

[@HelloAgain212]

@@anyheroics I hear you, it is a lot of time and energy. I just think your channel has a USP with having the highest ranked new player in the GBHL, doing a tournament journey mini series could be interesting. My opinion means nothing, so feel free to ignore it completely.

[@theonlyJP1]

@@HelloAgain212 I think this is a great idea and I would definitely tune in

[@criticalfocuschannel]

nice batreps! subbed =)

[@anyheroics]

Thanks so much mate, glad you're enjoying ~Elliot

[@lukestedman9913]

How did you do the bases for the grim hammers?

[@sethclarke6895]

Love it lads, keep up the awesome content! Very jealous of your terrain - you've inspired me to get some nicer bits. Any recommends for places to get terrain?

[@anyheroics]

I genuinely believe that 3D prints make getting terrain much easier nowadays. Lots of great sellers on Etsy and eBay. We just so happen to have a great local game store that stocks lovely terrain for us to play with. Thanks for the kind words - Josh

Time to get back to the elves mate. Canny beat them.

[@JMACCSArmiesOfMiddleEarth]

@@anyheroics I'm in the same boat. Keep trying evil and getting horsed

[@hunsler1006]

Maybe I'm missing something. If Aragorn was F10 ( you cant go above) and feinting, that reduces him to F5 so Thror would be above on F6

[@jackwhorton6826]

feinting reduces your F by d3 so lowest would be down to 7..

[@hunsler1006]

@@jackwhorton6826 oh, totally misread that to half your fight, dunno how I did that haha, cheers man

[@jackwhorton6826]

@@hunsler1006 no worries! Always lots of little rules in mesbg to keep track of!

[@glynnseymour7587]

Thor doesn't have Defence, which is weird because young thorin and Thrain have it. but otherwise a great batrep.

[@anyheroics]

Hey, Glynn. Thanks for letting us know. That is odd as I have always thought, he did have defence. Good job it did not affect the game haha! - Josh

[@glynnseymour7587]

@@anyheroics Just rechecked and yeah he has strike, strength and challenge. Unlike Thrain and Thorin, i think they believed D9 and the ability to shield along with the 4+ arkenstone free fate made him survivable enough. Didn't take into account Aragorns magic beatstick.🤣

[@anyheroics]

@@glynnseymour7587 Yes, that does make sense. I guess he can't tank, everything haha. - Josh

[@spoons1905]

Enjoying the content, but I had to just skip through this one. Might be a good idea to have someone holding the camera that isn't eating the whole time.

[@anyheroics]

Sorry spoons! We were both eating crumble which wasn't the best experience for people's ears! ~Stephen
