I can't overstate how good this video is. Not only has it provided a fantastic insight into a game I previously had no interest in and now I am looking into because of this, I think this also sets a new "gold standard" for gameplay videos. I really hope you enjoyed this and the final product is worth it for you because we would LOVE to see more like this - even if it's just more ASOIAF videos!

I have never been able to watch a battle report for a tabletop war game before because they're usually so boring. This battle report is incredibly engaging, perfectly paced, incredibly well produced, and taught me rules as I needed to know them. Really, really well done Scott. This clearly took a MASSIVE amount of time, but I would start watching more battle reports if they were more like this!

Fantastic video and a great intro to ASOIAF for new players. I hope this battle report kindles interest in some folks who may never have heard of ASOIAF or have never seen it on the table. With the Old World coming out, I think ASOIAF stands as a fantastic alternative to that game, and hopefully the resurgence of interest in rank-and-file games will spill over into ASOIAF. It's a fantastic game that deserves more attention. Thanks for continuing to evangelize this fine game!

Also cool that my shirt now references more than a pilot.

went to a game convention yesterday, on the look out especially for an interesting wargame, and there were plenty being actually played, but this was so much more interesting (and beautifully edited, with the behind-the-scenes 'thoughts' interjections - very cool and helpful to follow the game and increase the engagement). I really hope this video does well for you and gets a sequal later, but i feel the game itself is a big factor in the success of the video as well; it might be quite unknown, or at least compared to warhammer the old world at this moment. I would love to see some content from you on warhammer the old world, battle report or just opinions and feelings. Good luck!
