Space Marines vs Astra Militarum, Warhammer 40k battle report

[@Rocknoob49]

"where is Cadia anyway?" "..not around" lmao

[@megazaku1139]

I’ve been thinking about it for a while, and I think the one thing I really appreciate is the hand cam and narration done by Mr. Winters. It makes watching games so much more interesting and feel that much more dynamic. Cheers!

[@wintersSEO]

Thank you

[@gavinkemp7920]

I've tried watching other war gaming chanels with more production but only Winter has me coming back regularly, its the naration, the chill, the friendships especially when he does stuff with his inner circle like sultan, and yes having a more dinamic camera compared to the static one make it better. I hoping he will get to do something with sayhipaul again because narrative wise they are fantastic together.

[@SultanPlays40k]

This was a fun game! Big guns never tire!

[@dominicktomko6767]

Hi Sultan! Huge fan, great game, just got a quick question. Don’t the guard auto wound on 6s to Hit?

[@SultanPlays40k]

@@dominicktomko6767 only if they stand still

[@RobJonesWrites]

Sultan's guard inspired me to collect guard. Even used his idea of using Jackals to make rough riders. So happy to see the Vorkanis back on the channel, even if some warp trickery had them pitted against the glorious 13th... Or maybe this is an exercise organised by the Lord Solar himself to test their mettle. Either way, a glorious board and two glorious armies.

[@kiltedcossack]

Hear him!

[@BloodBuffalo]

I like his tank commanders a lot.

[@hanson666999]

Great batrep lads. It was awesome to see the guard doing their thing. Thanks ^_^

[@timo-d4672]

Excellent timing when I'm building a Dorn! Looking forward to this....training exercise

[@BloodBuffalo]

Creed cant use her strategem ability on tanks. Has to be regiment units. This was a really good battle report otherwise. Solid lists but not meta. That terrain layout was brilliant. Very enjoyable watch.

[@bellportbattlebunker4682]

Great seeing the guard on the channel. Thanks for sharing!

[@neshirst-ashuach1881]

Great game, and super close! Also I knew that 40k was Grimdark but I never realised there were literally weapons called "baby melters"! 43:40

[@thomascoutts9242]

Good game, I expected guard to fall apart after the first turn, but they hung in there!

[@efzmonkey]

Sultan has a great imperial guard army. Great battle report.

[@imperialjake114]

I think your last guard Game was when Mordian Glory charged you down with pure Guard infantry! 💂 💂‍♀️ 💂‍♂️. Great Match to watch, keep them coming!

[@onkelgroen]

Great game! I can see I'll have to prepare mentally for my guns not killing anything... I'm currently building Vostroyan Firstborn as my first 40k army.

[@jamesspratley8163]

For my money you two are the best at this KZbin Batrep 40k malarkey. Thank you for all you do, entertaining people is such a skill

[@valkyriegremory]

Love to see sisters of battle, dark elder, voltenn back it been a while since winter play with or against them. More heresy games would be fun. But keep up the great work winter

[@timo-d4672]

That was an amazing game! Thought it was gonna be over fast but the turnaround was brutal.

[@GrifterX]

I swear to God I love when Sultan "Plays" I root for him every time! Great game gentlemen! Sultan! You are the man!

[@B__C__]

Sultan seems to be using his special 9th Edition morale dice.

[@nickhartung6941]

That was a great come back win fun game to watch

[@yokogaijinjr.5061]

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the castallen does not have scout, so the kasirkin can’t scout move with him attached, also the Rogal Dorns ability is before the save roll.

[@guysolomon7904]

Man, watching Valiants makes me glad I built all my tanks as Lancers. They just deal with armour SO much better...

[@Potato-nt5if]

This one was fun thanks Winters and Sultan!

[@phogelbice]

You got the best battle reports 👍

[@Thedagda801]

Superb gentlemen!

[@uselesspocketwatch]

I liked the ending.

[@Jimmy-pf7kr]

That was awesome!!

[@vineheart01]

D6 attacks and damage are way too swingy, theyve mostly gone away from it but every time a weapon comes up that has it it somehow ALWAYS rolls min shots or min damage. The amount of times ive gotten multiple KMB shots through on something only to do like 4 damage overall is alarming lol.....

[@yurybarsukov6166]

Hiding ninja canons is something wild) Like and comment to support the best wh40k channel as usual)

[@ourcommonancestry6025]

You had me at the ogryn

[@lancourt]

Very cinematic ending!

[@dr.feelgoodmalusphillips2475]

What a game! So close!

[@etherealhawk]

The amount of rerolls the astartes get is a lot

[@paulturner9675]

Get some deepstrike Scions for mobility Sultan!

[@nestorw8439]

10:45 I thought scout moves can’t result in you ending up within 9” of an enemy???

[@karlnygren]

Seems like they aren't used to playing with scout, it's an easy mistake to make. They also didn't realise or forgot that castellan removes Scout on the unit he leads since he doesn't have it. Still an enjoyable game, more of a friendly theme game than competitive.

[@nestorw8439]

@@karlnygren yeah it’s easy to miss for sure as it VERY rarely comes up. Either way I absolutely I loved it. Winters vs sultan batreps are always great.

[@karlnygren]

@@nestorw8439 agreed on their greatness! For me the Scout thing isn't that uncommon since I have scout (Catachans and sentinels) and my opponents often infiltrate to block my scouting. 😁

[@RFischer]

Interesting lists. It's rare to see Turrets and Field artillery.

[@Spaghettus]

As far as I know you can't reduce damage when applying the damage, you have to do it before you roll the save. Correct me if I'm wrong

[@thecasualwargamer5195]

Well done Sultan!

[@WoffbootPootle]

Fantastic game gents! Love a seesawing game that goes to the wire!

[@chrishoughton2500]

Awesome batrep !!

[@jimbusher5895]

Yay, Sultan is back 🎉🎉🎉

[@WraithRaider]

What an amazing game, very swingy!

[@ezegaming2115]

Genetic Freaks lol, Sultan has a whole legion of them, the betrayal 😂

[@SultanPlays40k]

Nothing wrong with being a genetic freak

[@WeirdWizardDave]

Guard lethal hits when not moving seemed to get forgotten about a lot. (Edit) Nevermind, turn 2 the lethal hits kicked in hard :)

[@OreoPriest]

Winters forgot his ironstorm re-rolls a lot, so out evens out!

[@RahByte]

"Thanks to the emperor!" ... "Hey the emperor is with me!" "No he is with me!" Gentleman we learn live how the Horus Heresy started. :D

[@bobfall]

Amazing game!

[@andreaselleghini1037]

Impressionante......gran partita

[@albertodiez-andinogonzalez3534]

Hi, Winters!

[@wintersSEO]

Hi

[@peppermintshore]

As usual great battle report and entertaining to watch. However If it wasnt for the Votann and their upcoming releases i really dont think i would be playing 10th edition. 10th just hasnt got any soul. Im going back to 3rd and 4th to play my eldar and 9th for Space Marines and Necrons and that due to some of the models being 9th and 10th only models.

[@strigoi_guhlqueen8355]

Hy Sultan always nice to see you on.

[@tyhar7493]

Could of done with another tech marine with the lethal hits enhancement.

[@OrginalRaxor]

Terrain (cover) cant take the save lower than 3+ at 20:18 as far as i understand... Now you did make them both anyway, but it should have been 3+ not 2+ due to the trees.

[@notthebest928]

Pretty sure it can have cover if there is any ap involved on the attack, reading from the rulebook. "Each time a ranged attack is allocated to a model that has the Benefit of Cover, add 1 to the saving throw made for that attack (excluding invulnerable saving throws). Models with a Save characteristic of 3+ or better cannot have the Benefit of Cover against attacks with an Armour Penetration characteristic of 0. Multiple instances of the Benefit of Cover are not cumulative - a model cannot benefit from this rule more than once at any one time."

[@OrginalRaxor]

@@notthebest928 Hmmm i guess since the unit has a 2+ originally it can get back down to that +2 in case the attack has -AP, it can just never go from a natural 3+ down to a 2+, so it only works cause the dreadnought has 2+ normally.

[@thesherbet]

@@OrginalRaxor Thats correct, it can't lower a natural save value to 2+ but if a unit already has a 2+ then it can basically ignore the first -1AP

[@troy6882]

😃😄😁😆😅 5 Smile's and them some nice winters dice where did you get them ????.....

[@nathanshobby4646]

It’s a good day when Sultan is here

[@wardkerr2456]

Nice when the Humans win.

[@zenosAnalytic]

second warsuit on turn 1 you forgot about the sustained hits 1 on the heavy bolter; should have rolled three wound dice.

[@pqfire0950]

I thought cover couldnt get you to 2 ups o.O

[@Interrogator-Chaplain-Yoshi]

FOR THE GOLDEN THRONE

[@Ian-ph6el]

Hey guys, just an hour in and just remembered ancient fury got changed in the commentary to no give an improvement to the walkers saves 👍

[@glynrh8892]

When was that? I’ve been playing this wrong apparently 😅

[@MariusGage]

Checked the app and you’re right, no increase of save

[@Ian-ph6el]

I think there was a lot of feedback regarding it being called “ancient fury” and the walker that benefit most from it is just a mech with a space marine inside it 🤔

[@Paranormal-Stupidity]

It's hard to keep track of all the nerfs given to the already worst performing codex.

[@MariusGage]

Great looking armies and great opponents. Learning lots too, I thought you could shoot through your own units had no idea the firestorm turrets couldn’t fire through the gladiator

[@glynrh8892]

You can as long as they’re not blocking Line of Sight, the Glad is a big lumpy thing so you might be able to see through some marines, but not a tank

[@justinallred798]

How do you paint whiteheads? I have a hard time with the white

[@thesherbet]

Keep the white paint thinned down, and be prepared for multiple coats (usually 4+). Take your time with it and its really not that hard. Also suggest using something like Ulthuan Grey instead of actual White, it has better coverage and leaves room for proper highlighting so it doesnt look flat

[@LydonStrangeway]

haven't clicked on a video so fast in ages

[@joshuasmith2934]

You both made illegal scout moves as there is still a 9" restriction when ending the scout move from enemy models. So both the Kasikin and Warsuit wouldn't of end up so close to one another. But the Warsuit would have the advantage of moving first

[@Andy__H]

An awesome win by the loyalists ! 💪

[@Dr.PatrickC.Bailey]

Greaat game

[@angerskarin9222]

why is the map so damn small.

[@ge9367]

What happened to support bubble Sultan?

[@mikeb4085]

I haven’t used my Guard in years … thanks for sharing

[@beerhammer40k23]

Ancient fury no longer improves the save characteristic. Faq'd.

[@Paranormal-Stupidity]

Correct. Just one of many nerfs to an already trash Codex.

[@d7bkyq6]

Would you consider doing paid masterclass sessions….aka play a game with Winters?

[@yesiamarussianbot3076]

Cry havoc, and release the support bubble Sultan of war.

[@spudmonkey500]

Sorry but strength 9 autocannons! Poor poor melta guns. 😔

[@icebergninja9563]

Yay sultan!

[@DrumsTheWord]

What a ridiculous anti-amour list the marines had. Strange that? :)

[@Paranormal-Stupidity]

Good game. You did particularly well to have such a close game with vanilla marines. The Codex is pure trash. Everything marines can do, any other army can do at a fraction of the cost. The Space Marine Codex needs a complete rewrite.

[@BloodBuffalo]

This is kind of a bad take. Iron storm detachment has been winning GTs the entire edition for all chapters. And often.

[@Paranormal-Stupidity]

@@BloodBuffalo Poor reading comprehension, or outright lie? You're not even talking about the same Codex. The Space Marine Codex isn't good now because the Black Templar Codex borrows one rule from it. Of course you would understand that, if you actually played the game.

[@BloodBuffalo]

@Paranormal-Stupidity I do play the game. With space marines. Using the iron storm detachment. And I win. Do you have reading comprehension issues? There's literally GT lists for all events in the world. Marines still win. And win often. The iron storm detachment is part of the base spacemarines codex. Bro what are you talking about? Do you play the game? Are you just maybe idk....bad at it?

[@BloodBuffalo]

@Paranormal-Stupidity you do realize iron storm is part of the base space marine codex right? Like my man....what faction and detachment do you play that you're insulting my comprehension. How often do you check the world GT results?

[@chrisprime7767]

It's not even just the iron storm that has play. Storm Lance with Wolves is fantastic too. I think someone does not know what they're talking about.
