5000 points of Tau vs 5000 points of Death Guard, Warhammer 40k battle report

​‪@SultanPlays40k‬ returns with a bigger Tau list to see if it can withstand The End of All Things. The last big battle went down a storm and this one - well it comes down to the last dice roll.
‪@denofimagination‬ painted up the Tau. Go check em out. They are lovely.

A glorious game between two great players, a joy to watch! Shame about Mortarion, but at least it was a noble death. Imagine a demon primarch dying to something silly like poxwalkers :P

[@wintersSEO]

Imagine

[@doctorsprue5714]

Winters- have you ever thought of doing a tutorial on how you set up your boards? The basic elements of stuff you need to create a variety of different terrains (gravel, trees other features etc) and how you arrange them. It probably seems simple to you but you do it incredibly well. I’m starting out buying terrain and am a bit overwhelmed by it all

[@Psychichazard]

He has done a couple of times - look in the back catalog.

[@jennyenjensmuller7186]

He actually has done that. Check this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnjFgYd_iLWXqZY

[@CaptainMirro]

I agree his whole set-up is amazing 👏

[@tomkara1090]

winters dammit all multi meltas have had 2 shots each for 3 years now

[@dominicktomko6767]

I loved it when the Tau’naar did 20 damage to Winters tank, and he says “20 dmg?!” And Sultan says “it’s 5 damage a wound” and Winter goes “whaaaaat” I laughed so hard 😂😂 Thank you. Awesome video. Improved my Sunday afternoon!

[@samrees8311]

Bruh, hit me with the spoilers 😂

[@Froggsroxx]

I liked it when Tau'naar said "it's Tauing time" and Taued all over the place

[@rebelvelocity6271]

I’ve been waiting for this matchup again! I love Tau, Templars, and Gene Cult :)

[@MJ-jd7rs]

Tau player turn 4, my dice failed me Tau player turn 1-3, makes an absolute absurd amount of 4+ inv saves. “Failed”. Shield generators should be 5+ invs. Especially in a codex that hands them out like candy.

[@die_flugel_der_freiheit7382]

Guys, I love your high point battle reports! I think you do it best on KZbin as far as I've watched battle reports and I've seen a lot. You've got a great chemistry with Sultan and Sultan himself is quite a charming, lighthearted fellow and his smile really delivers it for me! Haha His Tau army is my favorite so far, I love Battle Sisters with all of my heart always and forever, but my favorite Xeno race is definitely the Blue Guys Empire. His Tau army is so good on the battlefield and that 1000p Gundam is always a joy to see in action. I mean, I like Death Guard as well, but they are not Tau! Hahah (Quite literally filthy traitors) Great job guys and I hope you will have more of those truly massive battles with the hugest and meanest units. UwU

[@BuryMyHeartAtCrystalLake]

Glad to see another high-point battle report on the channel. There is still something eternally irritating about watching Tau sit still and blast away.

[@wintersSEO]

Nightmare fuel.

[@TheDavebeer]

Fantastic game. Love the big point games as we get to see so many cool toys in action.

[@ericsmith9212]

Wow! What a superb game! The Tau fire power failed when they needed it most. I loved the simple elegance of this game. Imagine if Armor of Contempt was still around!

[@assaultmarine1464]

Xenos vs chaos are always the most entertaining battle reports

[@jennyenjensmuller7186]

Hahaha... had a wide grin when reading your comment. Indeed: Xenos vs. Chaos and the winner is: the Imperium. Unless the xenos are Orks. Then the Orks auto- win, because there was a fight. 😁

[@Rolfus]

Unfortunately not even the great man winters can make a tau shooting phase interesting

[@RunAzazelRun]

Did you watch the same video??

[@sullivangilbert1406]

Good to see the the mug blended in nicely with the Tau army overview!

[@tjv2446]

My greater good is tingling.

[@jackmonk4521]

Winters, knowing how your Death Guard fare against Tau shooting makes me scared to watch this.

[@lcnvarsityhockey]

Finally snapped and decided to start my first army. Over did it as I do. Bought about 4500 points of Tau. Trying to build and paint as I'm over the road. Only real problem is trying to decide which unit to build and paint first.

[@denofimagination]

[@GumMagnum]

dude...winters rolls were so painful man what *rotten* luck

[@majesticsausage9521]

More pointz iz more bettah!

[@sanguinaryguard1776]

My day is already better seeing this

[@CaptainMirro]

I'd love to see max death guard points against his blood angels. Also your death guard army has been giving me inspiration on how to build my death guard.

[@johnnyr2646]

Death guard seem rather squishy for an army that's supposed to be really hard to kill in the fluff. Winters needs to throw those green dice away and get new ones.

[@Potato-nt5if]

I love when a big model falls apart when it's destroyed. Enjoyable battle all around guys, thank you!

[@x31omega]

Hey Winter's, I've gotta say I watched many different channels doing battle report's and I aways compare theirs to yours. And I gotta say I am always left disappointed they never compare to your entertainment level. Been a fan and viewer for many years now and I'm glad to see these. Informational, entertaining, and just really loads of fun. Thanks.

[@sonofbaal40k83]

Hey winters I met you in big smoke in Heathrow today and thanks for being friendly :) 😊

[@wintersSEO]

Enjoy Vegas my friend.

[@sonofbaal40k83]

@@wintersSEO thanks ☺️. It was a pleasure meeting you.

[@LeviElite]

*Pans away from that glorious Tau army to get a Sultan fistbump on camera* Winters this is why you’re the best.

[@alteruno2828]

What a battle that was! Every turn I was thinking ‘the Death Guard have it’, then ‘the T’au have it’. Proper scenarios for the Kayon as well. Great fun, thanks for sharing!

[@MrKurtank]

Sultan must be my favourite returning character in your opposition roster. (I don't know why he must be, he just is)

[@Isabingus]

Be a good person, what a wholesome send off, great report that talnar explosion was brutal!

[@andrewt9128]

Love, Winters, love the channel, so much! Tau are unbelievably boring to watch, they're the only of your videos I never finish

[@ikarian8318]

10th edition needs to be like this game: deploy armies, roll off D6 vs D6, winner wins the game, pack up...😅

Remember you can blow up battle suits for 1 cp that includes broadsides and even stealth suits could have done some extra mws in those combats.

hohoho, 5k! And so tiny game! I like it!

[@johncolvin2754]

It's a thousand point model winters, winters reminiscing mortarion 😔, 🤣

[@Dowfreak18]

Haven't been able to play in years, but its nice to see this, it reminds me of the games i would have with my cousin. Nurgle badness vs my Tau.

[@noahandrulis9077]

This is the second time I’ve seen Mortarion evaporate to a Tau shooting phase in the first round. I’m kind of amazed he doesn’t have a phase cap of any sort.

[@anexistanthuman2435]

Codex was made before that was even an idea, frankly the way to prevent that is adequate obscuring terrain

[@johnphillips6515]

Epic stuff! Great to see all the toys on the table.

[@Half_of_The_World]

I never ever want to play tau (I don't like squishy infantry) but I gotta admit, they are easily one of the best looking forces (right alongside Necrons and Harlequins)

[@solatyn]

Do those crisis teams have to start in reserve? Seems like it would have been better to have them on the field from the start

[@TheM1ghtySt0ner]

I've watched Winters SEO for a long enough time and watching his battle reports annoys me he is the kind of player who is anal about anything they're oblivious to rule wise or anal about dice rolls just so they can do whatever possible to win. plus half his dice rolls are just dice drops instead of rolling the dice so he can intentionally try and get high numbers. I used to really enjoy his content but just his behaviour reminds me of the type of player in the hobby I hate to play against. Really hope I never see him in my local Warhammer store.

[@benjaminstevens6043]

do your opps. just act like they dont know the lyrics to Eminem, or have they collectively decided to embargo you? Either way, winters wins.

[@1xoACEox1]

Winters you always forget to fire Mortys pistol and do the thing where it hits everyone in a line.

[@johncolvin2754]

Oh no not fluffy again how long will he last 🤣

[@wintersSEO]

For as long as time

[@johnnyutah892]

Can you place Mortarion into strategic reserve? He’d be pretty dangerous coming in a bit later when guns are tied up.

[@derekdrake8706]

It's impossible to take Mortarion seriously ever since that time Sunstrike killed him in melee.

[@toxendon]

why is the supremacy armor still sold out on forgeworld :(

[@jonathanharvey6413]

Any chance of doing battle reports with some else? The variety of your guests is one of the best parts of your battle reports

[@brentreimer6411]

Did you intentionally put your Marines into squads of 7? If so, I love that commitment to the lore.

[@mutantzombie101]

It's how they come in the box.

Thanks alot for this amazing video.. just getting into playing the TT game (been a WH40K lover for years, just never delved into the TT gane). Great to see people playing it and having fun. "Mom's spaghetti" - made me laugh.

[@supremeownage8995]

After coming back into 40k, and playing a few tabletop games, I now think the army that has the most rolls are generally the side that wins.

[@oz2362]

What do you mean, the tau lost.

[@supremeownage8995]

@@oz2362 Yeah I'm not saying its guaranteed. But it feels to me like the army with the most attacks generally has the bigger advantage, regardless of how OP your forces are in comparison, the sheer weight of fire compensates for the luck of the dice rolls.

[@peasantlevelcrafting]

See, now it’s a good day.

[@dr.feelgoodmalusphillips2475]

Always a pleasure to watch your battle reports! Very surprising on the fire power not being as accurate for the Tau! Them dice rolls are killer.

[@Jimmy-pf7kr]

Awesome as always gents

[@dickie4559]

Hell of a slobber knocker 👏Would've been interesting to see how a crisis drop on Winters' 2 pointer would've played out. Might've been throwing points in the bin or it might've spaced the waves out. Terminator dropping in the corner of a map is always a win.

[@SkadadeLjud]

I only have experience from the pc games, but it was great seeing an actual table top playthrough, thanks :)

[@calumdeighton]

Playing Death Guard. Really. Hell, I new I got a sinus infection for a reason.

[@Half_of_The_World]

that was such a perfect game, the biggest damage output in the game against the biggest damage sponges in the game

[@darrenquarterman2611]

Crazy how close

[@Dr.PatrickC.Bailey]

I did not see the end of this one coming. Imagine how different things would have gone if Winters had managed to even roll average though...
