Get a resin 3d printer or a friend with a 3 printer and be happy, warmaster is cheap

[@JQModels]

Me too! Just picked up my first 1000 points. Great content.

[@iainmstanding]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@truskor]

As the number of your great videos grows, so grows my love for warmaster 😍👍

[@johnthomson2055]

I love the music you use in the video. „In the time, when the ocean drank Atlantis and the Rise of the Sons of Horias, there was a age undreamed off…“ Please keep up your wonderful work. I really injoy to practice my English understanding and learn more about Warmaster. Greetings from Germany

[@iainmstanding]

Yes! Thank you!

[@andrewshaw6063]

Excellent. Very entertaining way of explaining movement rules. Thank you.

[@iainmstanding]

Glad it was helpful!

[@andymansgamingchannel3356]

Another great tutorial! Thank you for contributing to our community :-) I would LOVE to see a siege game!

[@iainmstanding]

Thanks for the idea!

[@AdamStephens]

Yesss, so using this with my friends who ask about the game.

Thank you for this great rule section on your channel!

[@iainmstanding]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Gold_Bug]

Very well put together, I will be using this scenario to teach new players.

[@afterlifekid472]

Hope you will read this, thanks for your awesome work. You said that we measured the furthers corner, when the chariots move next to the house. You also said that's the left front corner. But wouldnt be the right corner in the front or in the back much further away? Sorry english isn't my mother tongue and I'm confused 😅

[@iainmstanding]

When moving stands in a curved path or an arc, look at how the stand will have to rotate as it moves. The part of the stand that travels the greatest distance around the curved path is the part you should use to measure the distance. So if a stand turns around a corner it will be the outside edge of the stand travelling around the corner that you measure. Normally if a stand turns to the right it is the left hand side of the stand that moves furthest, and vice versa. Hope this helps.

[@afterlifekid472]

@@iainmstanding Thanks this really helps. But in the example by 9:26 minutes you say: the furthers part is the front left corner. Thats total clear to me what you mean with that. But wouldnt be the back left corner the furthers away when I rotate the stand?

[@tinywargamer3863]

First time I see a battle report that ended without a single battle :-) Great!!!

[@iainmstanding]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@faba1985]

Thanks for that great content! It helps us alot to get into the game :)

[@iainmstanding]

Glad you enjoy it!

Love your music choice!

[@vgang3605]

Your really gettting the content out cheers

[@BadWaterMotors]

Great practical info thanks!

[@Jimbo818]

Hi - a question for you on initiative charges. Is the nax distance of such a charge 20cm? Or do cavalry get to move 30cm? I.e. if in column formation and rear stands are out of 20cm..

[@iainmstanding]

Provided the enemy is within 20 cm and you can see them, you get a full charge move distance for an initiative charge. So cav and chariots can go 30 cm, flyers can go 60 cm. This is important as sometimes you have to move more than 20 cm to contact the enemy to get round intervening terrain or models.

[@Jimbo818]

@@iainmstanding much appreciated, I'd been playing that wrong.

[@minkster1983]

Hi just starting in warmaster so I may be wrong but the rules say that if a commander fails his command roll the unit or brigade he gives the command to can still move at half pace is this correct?

[@iainmstanding]

If you are just starting then you will realise that this video is 2 years old. The rules for moving half pace after failing the first order have only changed this year from optional to mandatory. This is covered in another video later in the series. The half pace move only applies to the first order a unit receives, if that order is failed. Second or subsequent orders never grant a half paced move. At the time this video was made the information was correct. You will find this in other videos, information that was correct at the time has later been superceded. Refer to the rules changes for 2023 video for up to date information.

[@Mausismi]

Thank you for these videos Iain, I've greatly enjoyed all of your battle reports on Warmaster. I was wondering whether you've played the Battle of Five armies version of Warmaster? If you have, do you have any experience of playing the lists supplied there for the Good and Evil armies against either the standard Warmaster lists or the Warmaster revolution lists?

[@iainmstanding]

Sorry not played Botfa

[@Instructoreskoronimus]

Apologies for asking if this is already covered in the video, but: how do the rules real with units changing facing on the spot? Is it just done by measuring the distance, for example, one corner travels while changing facing?

[@iainmstanding]

Yes, that's right

[@Instructoreskoronimus]

@@iainmstanding cheers, sir!

[@GRB00100]

Great video! Me and my friends are about to start playing warmaster it will be very useful as all the previous vids . Could you please do chaos dwarfs faction focus? I can't really find much about their playstyle and they will be probably my first army. Well if not them than bretonnia ;)

[@iainmstanding]

Will do but may take some time.

[@botteu]

These videos are very good. Thank you! As a person who bounced off of Warmaster after playing it when it first came out I'm now thinking we might have played it the wrong way or misinterpreted the rules somehow... We started playing Hordes of the Things instead which we still do occasionally (although those rules are written in a very confusing manner). Have you played HoTT and in that case how would you compare it to Warmaster?

[@iainmstanding]

Sorry I've not played HoTT. Where do you get the rules?

[@botteu]

@@iainmstanding HotT is a generic fantasy ruleset based on DBA (I think) released by the Wargames Research Group back to 1991. The rules are quite simple and straight-forward once you know them but the rulebook is written in a very esoteric, academic sort of way (imho) which is a pity since the game is quite fun. I bought the rules from a book store here in Sweden but I found this link on Amazon: www.amazon.com/Hordes-Things-Version-Phil-Barker/dp/0244755426 and there's probably PDFs available somewhere.

[@Jimbo818]

Hello again- question for you about moving brigades. Are component units of a brigade allowed to move through eachother in the same way a single unit can whilst moving? Lastly, can dark elves combine +1 magic item with +1 cauldron to cast a spell at +2?

[@iainmstanding]

First question, no, units cannot move through other units, friend or foe. Second question, yes, you can stack bonuses to cast spells but a 1 always fails.

[@Jimbo818]

@iainmstanding thanks for all quick replies! Your channel has really helped our small WM community get off the ground! Any tips for beating dwarfs with DE? Keep getting nailed by cannon 😅 and can't arrive with enough force.

[@Redmow51]

I'm getting into this but using Warmaster Ancients. Fun stuff.

[@frankadams4792]

When using the Warmaster Revolution Ruleset when a unit fails an order it can move at half pace.

[@iainmstanding]

Yes, there is an optional rule that allows a unit to make a half pace move if the first order it is given is a failure. I'll cover the optional rules in a future video.

[@ondrejstepanek6597]

Great tutorial... thank you :)

[@jamventris5313]

Thank You!

[@Stiffneckstudio]

Good video 👍🏼

[@iainmstanding]

Christ the moving rules give me a headache
