This is the best battle report I've ever watched, for a simple reason: I can fucking follow what's going on. The way you explain the action is so useful for new players like me. The cenital camera with the "dark fog" and the subtitles... it's perfect. And of course, the video doesn't last 3 hours. This is perfect, for real. Thanks

[@jfm.d5180]

This is one of the best battle reports I've ever seen. You take pauses to explain your thought process. When it comes down to the time-consuming details like moving units, you are able to speed it up and narrate over it. It makes watching this (as opposed to setting aside 4 hours to watch a report) do-able.

[@WhyNot-sb9kk]

Best AoS channel. Good stuff.

[@SeasonofWar]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@IFireseekerI]

I'm looking to start AoS with a Soulblight Gravelords army, so it's always great to see more videos to learn from them. Keep doing what you're doing :)

[@adamfillier3515]

Hell yes!!! More SBGL please - stoked to see this one!!

[@zebulonthelen3062]

Nice job on the narration Ridge. I love Cass's sass and all, but some variety is nice.

[@Tomfo0lery_]

Such clever, competitive plays from both armies. What a game!

[@withteethfilmssp7794]

I play both of these armies, so it was fun to see them against each other.

[@gregoiremichelet]

Pfiou great battle report ! A little enhancement would be to highlight the character/unit when announcing battle tactics 'Broken ranks' / 'Bring it down' / etc ..

[@Failerist]

Excellent report. The Soulblight did an amazing game and stayed calm no matter the ones in the important rolls💪 Hopefully people that love competitive will learn from that. Jordan always was but maybe people overlook it as he always is so really helps to see how a fight with two confident and calm generals turns out. I loved it

[@calveras86]

I really like the production of the report. Great job!

[@visuellegedanken]

Great game! Happy to see Deepkin back on the channel. Was very surprised to hear Ridge but he did a great job!

[@kosachilles2504]

Would love to see a show case of the miniatures maybe at the start of the report but other then that you guys do amazing battle reports! Really enjoyed the watch!

[@robertronngren]

Man, I can count on one hand the times I've not used Mannfred's buff aura. It makes such a huge difference.

[@chilicrab8823]

Great battle and great to see Soulblight again! Hope to see them again soon since they are so versatile and provide such amazing games 😉

[@CartoreAOS]

Thank you for this been wanting to see soulblight on your channel so badly.

[@michaelgundersen8866]

Sadly, Mannfred can't take an artefact, since he is a unique character. Scratch the above. After watching the complete thing, I see now, that they made a lot of mistakes while showing the lists. The artefact is on the VLoZD (+3D attacks for complete charges made)

[@_sambaloelek_8942]

👍

[@ShizwixWarlock]

I was nervous when I saw those Grave Guard deepstrike, gambling on a 9" charge facing a deepkin double turn, really left them out to dry. I would have preferred to see them pop out behind a screen, nicely in range of Bella, Vamp Lord and Mannfred, ready to pounce 2.5" behind a screen. You can load up an attack on them with the Vampire Lord as it rolls over to your next turn, so they could have been at +3 attacks in turn 2. Still really stoked to see Matt grind out the win with some clever play!

[@nellezhar2385]

That round 2 battle music SLAPS!

[@benoitnicosia9001]

What a fantastic game! I play Soulblight and I'm very happy to see them on the channel. I love your battle reports. I had already asked the question without having had an answer but I am trying my luck again: where can I buy this magnificent battle mat? Thank you

[@SeasonofWar]

Thanks so much - the mat is from Deep Cut Studios!

[@benoitnicosia9001]

Thank you for your reply ! Unfortunately I can't find it on the Deep Cut Studio's website. It is probably no longer made. I love this mat :( Above all, keep going! I love your channel.

[@alexcross5916]

Great battle report as always, really useful to learn from too!

[@binslagala]

Awesome awesome battle report. Very high level play! Loved it! One question regarding the Soulblight list, can Manfred be equiped with an artifact? I thought named characters were not allowed anything maybe I'm wrong! Either way, really good job guys!

[@ZiuGigi]

Excellent report..the armies are really beautifully painted!!

[@MechanicalGibbon]

YES! Finally soulblight on the channel I’ve been waiting so long! Gg my dudes such an interesting game. It hurt so much seeing those grave guard come in then get wiped out because they were out in the open :( was Matt rolling to bring things back at the end of every turn? Didn’t feel like he was trying at the end of the opponents turn either? Man… I’m raging too at the 1s on the priority rolls haha

[@aruss1]

Really great game! I thought it was all over after that first double turn but smart play really turned it around.

[@Circuz36GamingChannel]

This was a great battle guys! enjoyed every second of this! Keep em comin! :D

[@scottpfaff7804]

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Where is narrator Cassie?? This doesn’t feel right without Cassie narrating. (Sorry if I spelled your name wrong. But seriously, I miss her narration.)

[@BruiserActual]

Awesome game fellas!

[@axelhinze3844]

First I thought...poor Vamps, this is over quickly xD But Manny pulled out some nasty tricks and stole the win, what a game (for SBGL)

[@samolder3894]

Spoilers in the 1st comment.

[@axelhinze3844]

@@samolder3894 How dare U? Fufufufuf... oh damn, you´re right ;_; I´ll try to be better next time xD

[@drdabush]

Good report! Turn 3 when you charged mannfred you should have been able to attack before he teleports because you fight at the start of the phase and he teleports at the start of the phase but you do your at the start abilities first since it’s your turn

[@mattkowalyk9066]

Sadly, this is not true. When someone is chosen to fight in the combat phase, that is technically AFTER the "beginning of the combat phase" stuff. So Mannfred must opt out of attacking when he teleports.

[@drdabush]

@@mattkowalyk9066 whoops yes you are right thank you! Strike first and strike last 3.0 changes were bigger than I fully understood

[@awijntje14]

Wow what an absolute grind off a match guys, Matt losing so many priority rolls was insane (the only other person I know that rolls that badly did today's narration 😜).. One question though Matt mentioned something about the sequence of Manfred and his teleport but I'm not sure what he meant, could someone explain it? As always top notch game, top notch table (the scenery keeps blowing me away!?) keep up the great work!

[@cdance93]

I was confused about that at first too.. I believe it means Mannfred will charge and then teleport but he can still make a 3” pile in move after teleporting because he charged

[@awijntje14]

@@cdance93 thanks after reading his warscroll and the rules that does seem to be the case, he could even do a monstrous rampage if I'm not mistaken before teleporting out..

[@mattkowalyk9066]

Hey guys. Correct. Mannfred made his charge, therefore he would be able to do monster actions, then teleport AND pile in 3 inches to snag the back point.

[@woolf552]

Cass, what happened to your voice? 🤔 great game as always guys!! 😂

[@robertviscomi8199]

Fantastic stuff. Please more kruelboyz ! Not just big yellers either

[@rollnycgaming2279]

Awesome game! Might have been my favorite one yet.

[@StatexAlchemistxXx]

Soulblight gravelord tickle my undead soul

[@MrTBass11]

Fantastic match guys. And welcome sassy ridge :D

[@Chriscedk]

Amazing battlereport. One question though. What is that beautiful music you used around battle round 2? Do you have the name of the Song or artist? Keep up the good work! :)

[@SirEarlGrey]

please have B-roll of the units as the players go through their lists at the beginning of the game. These are some of the best painted battle report minis and I want to see more of them.

[@Socraz6]

The health reminders are great!

[@oliverjanovitz3454]

Great battle report! For the Soulblight list, is VLoZD 455? I think Vordrai is 455 and the vanilla VLoZD is 435.

[@SeasonofWar]

Yep - just a mistake in the graphic!

[@tobiarossi4954]

Just an amazing battlerep.

[@thel1chking]

Good game, hate double turn

[@Enballgroda1]

Reavers aren’t battleline as the Eidolon isn’t Isharann. Well, they are with the new points and warscrolls, but that doesn’t seem to be in play here… so it feels kinda pointless to point it out since there’s no need to correct it in the future.

[@Nedwig747]

Ummm how does Manfred have the arcane tome artifact? Is that actually on the Zombie dragon Lord?

[@davidwasilewski]

Love the ruined buildings. Is it possible to buy these anywhere, already printed?

[@olractrooprev5237]

Great game as always! Doenst unified wins you ties the first battle round? Or does it still give you the choice of who is going first?

[@Chalky62]

Excellent game guys 👌

[@awijntje14]

Wait what is going on with the narration?? Will we be getting some sassy Ridge now??

[@SeasonofWar]

We'll have to wait and see! :P

[@davato5249]

The eidolon wouldn't be able to All out Defence on T1 right? Mannfred Roared at him

[@SeasonofWar]

Good catch, might have been a scripting error - or we're just idiots. Likely both! :P

[@mattkowalyk9066]

@@SeasonofWar Maybe a little bit more of the latter lol

[@beardhammerwargaming]

Wait...am I playing Mannfred wrong? I always teleported him after the charge!!!

[@valorhaven]

Hello! Awesome video as always! Love Soulblight! ❤️ Just wanted to ask if Mannfred is allowed to learn 2 lore spells :)

[@battlemallet1133]

I think that came from the bonus enhancement from Warlord

[@shimuni9213]

Where are the Base topings for your idoneth from?

[@Sasukejepansef]

Vampire on Zombie dragon is only 435 pts not 455. Vhordrai costs 455.

[@ryanodonnell5733]

I love the table. Is it custom made? If not who makes it?

[@BaronVonMilk]

How is he returning Dire Wolves from the grave site?

[@wojciechfilonczuk818]

Hi Guys, I've noticed Mannfred casting different spells from the soulblight book. Is he able to pick one spell from lore of vampires and deathmages?

[@wojciechfilonczuk818]

Just noticed the artefact, i dont think named characters should carry such things :)

[@hexxed2833]

Can you still play Arkhan the Black in Soulblight Gravelords?

[@raccoonhunter]

Why all out defense instead of feral roar on the Leviadon?

[@SeasonofWar]

Idiocy on my part haha - that would have been a much better idea!

[@nucha2fb]

The "insert any unit" use rally and return no models

[@bobklopps2228]

Hi Reavers are only battleline if a isharan hero is a General, or is it wong?

[@SeasonofWar]

Oh my god I totally forgot :O

[@bobklopps2228]

No problem! 👍

[@Turtlesism]

@@SeasonofWar ironically as of Fury of the Deep you are now correct!

[@calveras86]

What is this bye cross he's talking about?

[@richreinhart3528]

That was a close one, and mannfred really showed his utility in that game. It's unfortunate that the Strike First ability of Idoneth was nerfed so that they don't get to fight before Mannfred uses his ability, or the game would have gone very differently. Although who knows what the new IDK battletome holds? Cheers!

[@mattkowalyk9066]

Good call out on this. Jordan really looked into this mid game to make sure we nailed the rule properly for you guys to see!

[@liquiddude9855]

Need mooore zombies

[@ludow6065]

No artefact on mannfred.

[@janmindner2952]

Kinda a lot of mistakes no? Named characters with artefacts? Double roar? U can only make a monster action once right? Not the same twice. Little bit confused 🤔

[@komoroff69]

What a scrap :) good , honest Warhammer

[@bhubbard491]

Great video, but every time Matt pronounced the dynasty name "Vie-krose" instead of "Veer-kose" or "Weer-kose", it made me cringe. :)

[@roubledoubledice7712]

Idk has not a valid list. Reavers are conditional battleline
