Loving the painted MK4 minis and all the rest of the production, great work y'all! Headed into the game itself now!

[@triedtrue1221]

Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy the game :)

[@N3MOII]

Great game guys. I'd gotten the impression mk4 had a bit of a rocket tag thing going on, so it was fun watching the back and forth

[@user-sx9kp2nu6z]

Thank you for such a high quality battle report! These are great!

[@austinhulick7472]

I love the terrain and the models and everything. Thank you all for what you do!

[@Youdotty]

The game looks great with the terrain and painted minis.

[@triedtrue1221]

Huzzah,, Go Cygnar! I love this game. Everything is just so amazing, model design, paint, terrain is pure awesome sauce! Then throw in the production from the camera work, editing, lighting, voice over work. And then top it off with great sportsmanship,, Huzzah now you have an Epic Channel! Top Notch you all.

[@triedtrue1221]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the game :)

[@kej6753]

Courser....like lighting courses through my body

[@Faceonthewall]

Great quality Bat Rep. If WM/H has any chance of avoiding the abyss, it needs good people like you❤

[@piotrpalacz4811]

Love the terrain! Although the central piece is blocking the view a little, the angle camera solves it all! I really dig the idea and I hope I will be able to incorporate this into my streams one day hahah that requires another camera though :D

[@triedtrue1221]

Thanks! Everyone here at DEWM really enjoy your live bat reps too :D

[@sleeksbowl]

I am painting Mr. Wolf right now and this gave me some motivation to finish. Thanks for the batrep. One question, is it warmachine code to hang your keys from your belt loops?🤔😁 If so, I am going to have to buy myself a carabiner.

[@tntpaul1376]

Haha! It may just be a Delaware thing :D

[@ChaosTauKnight]

We do have it going on everywhere here hahah

[@josephbaumgartner9571]

That was a great report! My favorite part was the tough check counter. Any chance Paul can do a tutorial for consistently hitting those checks? 😂

[@triedtrue1221]

Thanks so much! :D

[@SuperEagle112]

Painting new Cygnar as I listen. It’s the best background

[@SeanMaguire02]

Orgoth look very nice

[@DocJohnson312]

Great Bat Rep y’all! What was the scenario?

[@triedtrue1221]

Thank you! This was scenario 3 of the Black Tide season 2 campaign :)

[@ZombieApocalypse09]

Awesome batrep. Great minis! I can't get over how much better a name "Corsair" would be for a warjack than "Courser" is. Also, were you all playing the Execution rules rather than standard Assassination?

[@weregeniegaming]

I like the video, nice BatRep, just trying to wap my mind around the Brown Cygnar scheme. Does someone not like Blue? I literally thought they were just primed until I saw there was a more recent BatRep with the same colors. not complaining, mind you, just curious as to why. I know some people don't like established color schemes and won't use them, but the bright colors of Cygnar were one of the things that got me into the faction long, long ago with Prime mk1 (the original B&W rulebook).

[@mordarion]

Just getting into Warmachine and went with Orgoth. Where did you guys get your tokens/templates/game aids from? Great report!

[@triedtrue1221]

Thank you so much and welcome to Warmachine! We have a mix of tokens and widgets mostly from Broken Egg Games and Frozen Forge.

[@morrischan932]

at 17:00 if there is no free strikes is there a point in putting models so close to enemy models? Can you Jam units when they can move around? just getting back into it and trying to relearn tactics

[@triedtrue1221]

So jamming units is still a benefit because your opponent still needs to clear those models first before advancing the rest of their army. If you take that scenario, Rick could have advanced a unit of storm legion models to walk around the jamming units. He could have placed models engaged in a way they wouldn't have lost their initial, but objectively his models didn't move that far and I still set the line of engagement closer to his side. Doing that made it so that I could still score the scenario element. Jamming is definitely still a tactic, and I would suggest trying it out with a model with shield wall and take the true inspiration command card to have tough and steady for a turn. If you are lucky, and they don't have grievous, that unit will be able to tarpit your opponent quite well!.

[@explorer4161]

What do you mean you don't play allocation rules anymore? Did something change I'm unaware of?

[@triedtrue1221]

Hello there! A lot of MKIV armies have easy access to Empower units, which makes it so they don't need Warcasters to allocate in most situations :)

[@explorer4161]

@@triedtrue1221 OK, the way you said it made it sound like there was no allocation anymore
