SIEGE BATTLE REPORT! ~ Dwarves vs Goblins Mega Game

[@joshmortimer3433]

what a great game to watch, it wasn't just a battle it was a story with a compelling narrative. I think if the game had gone for 3-5 more rounds, the dwarfs from the walls and mines would have sallied from the rear and reclaimed more of the outbuildings but hey... it wasn't about winning, it was about getting 4 players together to play a fun scenario.... Thanks Jacob and that terrain. wow.

[@craig3111]

This scenery is incredible too. Not just the look and finish but the modular designs of the buildings and the destroyed stages of the walls.

[@esotabletop]

This is very cool, an absolute dream for any LOTR fans having a dwarven kingdom to defend! Really enjoy the battle reports on these terrain pieces too, would love to see another one for saxonia!

[@craig3111]

A tough task for the dwarves with all those monsters. Some dwarf ballistaes or crossbows could have helped

[@MrMintyfreshsmell]

It's odd they didn't have a single ballista

[@Firefrab]

Honestly, I was surprised at how bad the shield-bearers with seige spears were, I always thought they were these real castly type guys but they folded to the balrog instantly

[@adrianhultman6236]

​@@Firefrab They usually are, thing is their defence 9, but the Balrog has strength 9, so it's still 4+ to wound

[@Firefrab]

@@adrianhultman6236 oh... never noticed that! thanks!

[@ethrsag735]

That Nat 1 on the Bannerman immediately made a scene in my head of Dragon fire spilling over the battlements as the grizzled veteran brought his shield up while dropping the banner shaft a bit to shield himself and the cloth.

[@sammyblaze4234]

Not only did you design wonderful models but the paintjob is also worth showing off, great job guys!

[@mattharris6994]

The last building set was really good, but the Dwarven Kingdom is awesome.

[@ConquestCreations]

Thanks for the comment mate! I couldn't be happier with how this one came out!

[@BCEFilms]

Jacob what else can we say besides “holy cow!” The terrain looks incredible and it’s nice to finally see a faction like the dwarves get some love on the tabletop with their own themed buildings. Your battle reports continue to get better and are an absolute joy to watch! Cheers!

[@SonsOfGondor1]

Backed the Kickstarter, was excited to watch the batrep, but David's Dwarf strategy absolutely stole the show. :-)

[@tophholland]

God how cinematic would it be to see dozens of dwarves just rush a balrog.

[@lazyvipurr4698]

They'd be punted like balls lol

[@freddiemathefuchs5825]

Absolutly Stunning Battlereport, so many cool „little“ skirmishes and the battlefield is super awesome! Good Job!

Go Dwarves!

I'm so excited to see the next city you create, I'm thinking elves!

[@davet2325]

What an epic battle! Thanks to all involved for all the passion you put in to this project!!!

[@BattleCamperHome]

Superb battle report! The new terrain looks absolutely fantastic. Would have been perfect for a display board I'm working on for May....

[@averymargerum6227]

Fantastic work Jacob and the other players, Durak Deep looks amazing and the monster mash was a sight to behold! Would love to see a painting guide for the terrain, and I can't wait for more content to come!

[@Ryu102684]

An awesome battle report to watch, always good pacing and video time for your battles to boot. I'm new with no army as of yet but watching these always motivate me to play and plan my first army. Also just finished printing the first Kingdom of Saxonia building from your shop, it's excellent! The whole gaming group now awaits excitedly for this Kingdom of Durak Deep to begin its printing here and I will have the hobby honor of painting most of them.

[@ConquestCreations]

Thanks for the comment mate! Welcome to the game. I am glad you are enjoying the terrain!

[@roryduckett2665]

Amazing job. Loved every minute. That board and terrain look amazing

[@diegoparedes2138]

Amazing report!!! Love the new Durak Deep terrain!!! Congrats and greetings from Argentina!!! 👏💪🍻

[@thomasbowman3579]

Awesome terrain and battle report. Would be cool to see an alliance between Moria and Goblin town in an epic showdown against all three dwarf factions.

[@thewargammers]

Great game liked it a much keep going ❤

[@boyamaxHD]

That dragon is insanely well made, wouldn't mind a video explaining how you managed that.

[@BIGREDRoyalBear]

Thinking the same thing!

[@charlessadlerii6205]

It is a nice forge world model! The Carmine Dragon, I believe.

[@microforgeminis]

God damn that was a good bat rep! Shame I couldn’t make it on the day but so good seeing all that juicy terrain come to life. Best of luck for the Kickstarter looks like it is off to a flying start!

[@Batman_the_bad_man]

One of the best tabletop sieges on yt, if not the best!

[@Holger87]

Wow! These minis look so freaking awesome. And the terrain is just epic. You are doing very good things for the hobby Jacob with your kickstarters =)

[@smoothbrush4722]

GG for the evil very nice painted terrain and miniatures, that huge dragon is waw..

[@BattleCamperHome]

Right, I have to comment again to say basically the same thing. I'm only 10 minutes in and this is blowing me away. I can't promise there won't be further wasteful repetition.

[@ironhammer5708]

All I have to say is, ROCK AND STONE BROTHA

[@robertoschettino1448]

Magnificent battle report and terrain! It looks like a First Age battle, something like the defence of Belegost!

[@onemisterfranko]

The balrog will remember this personal defeat and seek it's twisted vengeance but what an absolute behemoth.

[@ghostofalltime4934]

Gorgeous terain and a lovely game. Well done chaps. It really was a monster mash for the poor Dwarves though

[@artemisgames2150]

Way too many big monsters with such a large goblin army would be more fair if dwarfs at least had some siege weapons.

[@baldiesbattlesinminiature5902]

Great report, the dragon looks fab. Thanks for sharing the game.

[@SonsOfGondor1]

MVP - the Well house Ranger! Du Bekar!

[@cjdesantis2131]

This is why this is one of greatest wargames ever designed. I'm sorry even 40k apocalypse games dont get THIS good!

[@frasercake]

man, seeing bfme 2 buildings brought to life in a board game is amazing, im assuming due to detail they were printed in pieces with software or someone by hand carved magically good job

[@PMMagro]

Amazing :) Such a nice fortress and all them monsters.

[@journeywitharrows2742]

Love this! Amazing work. Couldnt help but think why not fly over the walls?

[@finnbruton7274]

Wow so much thought has gone into making this terrain! Hood paint job too. Nice work

[@michaeltremaine4356]

Classic Jeremy 1s on the dragon's fire. What upgrades did the dragon get? Surprised to see David not powering up his dice on the Balrog roll-off 😂 Wonder why so many dwarves stayed within the great hall, those numbers might have helped. Great job can't wait for more!

[@wcfromaz]

Wings and Firebreath. :)

[@michaeltremaine4356]

@@wcfromaz Re-watching it I think it has tough hide too. When it took 2 wounds they said it still had 7 left.

[@mathiasgauch6207]

Do you know where this dragon figure came ? It's not a regular MESG figure i guess

[@finnbruton7274]

Awesome game. I feel like the dwarves might have considered offloading a few more troops from the great hall. I know it was important to keep it but feel like the better half of the army was locked down in a building 90% of the game. Like if the balrog and dragon had gone and held the well-house.

[@SwordsandBrushes]

That was a great battle report guys and the Scenery looks amazing! I was on the side of Evil and hoping that they could munch on some dwarfs as i do like seeing monsters! :):)

[@ConquestCreations]

[@the10thmuffinman51]

Just discovered this channel and love the battles! My only request would be that you show off some cool cinematic shots of the minis when your detailing the army lists. It’s a really little thing but I think it would be really cool and help with immersion

[@francescogulisano2917]

Wonderful terrain and excellent advertisement

[@daedalus6796]

Urist is proud of their cousins struggle against the goblins

[@MrMintyfreshsmell]

While I loved the match, it felt a little biased tords Moria. The dwarves didn't even have their ballistae.

[@nathanmathews3090]

It has always been an impossible task 🤷‍♂️ feels bad to play but looks really good

[@wark93]

Such a fantastic battle! I can just imagine how Sauron's siege on Eregion would look ;)

[@NickSibz]

This new terrain is so nice, well done and great game.

[@JohnShutgun]

Hello everybody, I just got my first Army last week so I'm pretty new to all of this. Any recommendation where I can get second hand heroes? Also interested in 3D printing structures so any recommendations on that as well will be appreciated. I am aware of Saxonia.

[@ConquestCreations]

I would recomend joining some facebook groups. There are heaps of good ones for second hand trading!

[@JosephSDodd]

Depending on where in the world you are Ebay can be great for getting models on the cheap

This model has been designed for these models but the walkways are no where near wide enough for the basic base size !

[@ConquestCreations]

All of the walk ways are designed with the standard bases sizes in mind. All doorways allow 25mm bases through, the medium door ways allow 40mm bases through and the largest door way allows a 60mm base through.

[@Scartenable]

@@ConquestCreations Since GW Monster bases (such as the Balrog) are actually 65mm, rather than 60. Did you account for the extra 5mm?

[@richardbradley2335]

@@ConquestCreations The doors are done really well but the walkways are off for me....the width is great...your right there...but the little blocks either side dont allow the base to sit properly.

Thanks mate! I appreciate the support

Awesome battle report guys

[@franpschorr3646]

Really cool siege. One thing though, the map was so wide sometimes it felt a little incoherent. Would love to have a visual showing the positioning of the units in a top down view. Maybe with a quick graphic or some dots or something. It would also be really cool to see the thirteen stages of the map in quick succession. I don’t think it would have to be super accurate either. Just marking pockets of troops and big models.

[@ConquestCreations]

Thanks for the comment. This is super helpful I'll take this on board for the next time I do a big game like this one

Wish balrog was stronger. Maybe if they gave him monstrous charge or upped his normal attack amount it’d be better. Maybe like make him 400 points but give him 5-6 attacks and 3 might just to help with dice rolls.

The miniatures are based on the films. From the book we read "His enemy halted again, facing him, and the shadow about it reached out like two vast wings."
