One Page Rules Grimdark Future Battle Report (2500pts) - Robot Legions vs. High Elf Fleets

[@WylochsArmory]

Bit out of practice, what with the pandemic and all. Sorry for the mistakes in-game. But we had a fun afternoon.

[@MartyKane217]

Having fun is the most important part! I'm lucky that my wife likes board games, though she's not into the tactical miniatures-based ones. I'll have to use the Father's day trick next year...

[@notreallydavid]

After the break - LOTFP with the kids.

[@FacilityD20]

Thats all that matters

[@nadinabbott3991]

It happens

[@haydenallenallen1160]

We’ve missed you Wyloch, and welcome to the game wyfeloch.

[@WylochsArmory]

Thanks a lot

[@notreallydavid]

'Wyfeloch' - arf! Applause from Nottingham UK (listen very hard).

[@JBarredo3]

😎

[@MidwinterMinis]

... now we just need Kelly vs Penny. Or me vs you, narrated by them.

[@YuriZahn]

I would love to see either of these... honestly, I can’t stand watching most Battle Reps, but these ones with non-gamers are good because they are not so “technical “

[@WylochsArmory]

A shame about this large pond in the way.

[@Lion4de]

yessssss

[@larryirish9498]

Words fail me for how *much* I'd like to see a vid of Kelly & Penny commenting (sniping) on a game between you guys!!! 😀 😀 😀 ❤️ Side note - Guy, I had no idea you moved in the GDF circles! Way cool. 😀

[@Nevets1073]

THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN.

[@samanthalacroix2687]

Way to go Wyfelock!!! You looked just so thrilled to roped into this LOL, thanks for being a good sport/ I loved your line "I AM the reason you are a father", it went over his head but we got it! :)

[@jeronimo486]

This tipped me over the edge to give OPR a try. Very lovely battle report, thank you guys!

[@LONO47]

Heh. Welcome back. She loves you soooo much if you didn't know yet. I can tell by the look saying "oh boy playing with toys" :-P from one grown man who play with minis to another, very cute vid.

[@jeremygriffin620]

You guys are both utterly adorable and she is such an excellent sport. Those eyes when you dork out over something and she just looks at you with a, "Go ahead Bill, explain it," look, that sent me into laughter. I've always been happy for you every time I've seen her pop into your vids. You guys are a little ray of light today, thanks!

[@Heath86]

That feeling you get when your wife joins in with one of your hobbies when you know she never would have tried it if she didn't love you. :)

[@FacilityD20]

Haha... really though

[@uglyduckling81]

You wife did an amazing job of smiling and pretending like she enjoyed that experience. My wife would be all scowls if I somehow managed to force her to try playing. She just flat refuses to even try.

[@nairocamilo]

It's so much easier to learn a new game when the people playing loove each other, and one of them doesn't know the game so you can relate and learn alongside them. Great video, you might not know how much it helps me understand wargaming!

[@RLBndR]

"if this channel didn't provide supplemental income during this pandemic, i'd be far less okay with this." Is the total vibe I'm getting from your wife 😂😂

[@trickstur5994]

I actually really enjoyed this battle report. Great job to your wife for being a good sport and kicking your butt :P.

[@jherazob]

Normally i root for the robots, but this time i cheered for Wifeloch, sorry but had to, fun game!

[@FacilityD20]

Haha nice

[@DavidMelissaHope]

What a great sport she is. You're a lucky man. Been wondering when you'd post again. Great video y'all. Happy belated Father's Day. Better start working on a great Mother's Day gift.....just saying....lol

[@wadsworthboy]

Yeah! Go under-dog! I've never really seen a 40k esk game played, but I was very invested in that battle! It also helped that you kept saying the rules, since I didn't really know what was going on.

[@Gilean80]

Looks like she had a lovely time. I recommend a weekly series!

[@FacilityD20]

Lol... good luck with that

[@earthmanbrick]

Wholesome vid, you guys make an adorable couple 🙂🙂🙂

[@brokenterrain]

If your wife is like mine, then this was an absolute rare treat. Loved watching, thanks for sharing.

[@NMoran-iu7ip]

Hey there long time viewer first time commenter. I just wanted to say thank you. Your videos are very inspirational. Ive been in the hobby mostly for crafting (kitbashing, green stuff/blue stuff, magnetizing, converting). Not only did you do an awesome vid with instructions and resources which made it easy to start playing but I'm going to use that fathers day idea to get my wife to do the same. Keep the vids coming you guys are awesome.

[@stephengilbert8166]

One of my favourite batreps, thank you guys. This is so enjoyable.

[@demetrinight5924]

I was rooting for the underdog. Mrs. Wyloch made a good opponent.

[@tabletopbastler1288]

What a great gift for fathers day. And what a great gift for both of you to have each other. What a lovely couple of two beautiful and wonderful people. Thank you for sharing these private moments with us. There's nothing you can do that can't be done. Love is all you need ;)

[@lethalgamez]

Welcome back wyloch, hope you and your family is well, thank you for the upload been waiting for it for a while 👍👍👍 stay safe!

[@jeffreykershner440]

I felt the 'oh we have not discussed this' at the end. She seems pretty awesome and a good sport.

[@ArgentChaosJames]

Looks like a fun game, and I love how easy the game is to follow. Also I never noticed how camouflaged the Robot Legions were in green forests, XD.

[@craigstephenson1050]

The side-eye you'd get whenever you'd "remember" something, if looks could kill! ;) I showed this to my wife, and she said "Yeah, no thanks!" (I'll get her to do something one of these days)

[@BTolputt]

Awesome to see you back, Wyloch! And thanks for the idea. Father's Day is in September here and now I know what to ask for :p

[@AlbertoRodriguez-zb3iu]

Bless her soul...now that's a wonderful wife that goes along to play with her husband whether she likes it or not.😁👍

[@slothking50]

Awwwww she's cute and nice, always like to see a lucky nerd exposing their spouse to Warhammer.

[@MarsKng]

Great vid, and you've turned her into a gamer for sure at the 14:37 mark, so salty! lol

[@larryirish9498]

“The Look” at 14:42 is perfect. 🤣

[@Totema1]

Missed you, Wyloch!

[@Malumbrus]

Damn dude your wife is gorgeous. Good job!

[@mattzander7033]

Great seeing you and your wife play. Despite not being a gamer, she seemed to hold her own pretty well.

[@ronaldhurst6204]

I agree with her the short games are quick fun and easy to stay involved with. I actually prefer them and even mapping areas to use small battles towards a bigger picture over multiple games.

[@camerakid76]

“What special thing can he do all of a sudden..” LOL You better count your blessings, poor thing gets something off the board and you put it back. She’s a good sport. Kudos to her and to you for landing her. I fear what task you’re in for though come Mother’s Day... LOL

[@jerrywhoomst1116]

Yes, he has returned!

[@jaroderickson2567]

Great video, and it looks like you both had a lot of fun!

[@weirdwwii8775]

There is no "take backs" when playing against the better half. You gotta just suck it up, brother. ;) Good to see another couple hitting the tabletop together.

[@DaedalusZM]

Per the rules, that regeneration ability is a "may" ability; not a requirement. That means... NO TAKE-BACKSIES! I'm with the missus on the "until you remember some magical rule..." sass. It was certainly warranted. 😁

[@soulfirez4270]

Great vid ,good to cya back and props for getting the wife to play .

[@TabletopWitchCRAFT]

Well done......getting the wife to play :). She seems like a natural.

[@tp6498]

Oh yeah, Mrs. Wyloch looks just thrilled in the intro. Something tells me Mr. Wyloch will be on the hook bigtime next Mothers day lol.

[@DUKWAK]

Lol, your wife is such a trooper. Great video bud and happy Father’s Day!

[@DarrenMalin]

I got my wife to play a RPG with my D&D group and thus 'Onion' the Elf was born lol :)

[@battlekiwi]

Fun game 😄 I love how dice nearly always try to please new players lol

[@Jonny_Wrigs]

Great video thanks to you and your CLEARLY better half. ;)

[@rob052771]

So refreshing to see your wife supporting you in your hobby!

[@dkbibi]

Beautiful wife with cool attitude! You're blessed Wyloch! I'm happy for you! 👍

[@davebrown7483]

Her face when you go back on the regeneration is priceless.

[@Tikkuls]

Based on current rules, you would have only gotten 1 regen roll for your retcon as the other 2 hits were due to Rending and negate regeneration. Not sure if this was the case at the time of filming (I am a couple years late to the party) but just wanted to float that out there for anyone that is getting started with OPR. Thanks for the great content!

[@WylochsArmory]

Totally correct.

[@MiguelMartinez-vd6dd]

Finaly he is back

[@jessehammil3897]

The king is back!

[@Nevets1073]

Man, you better have a crackerjack gift for her on Mother's Day.

[@FacilityD20]

Lol... he is in it now for sure

[@layrad]

Oh come on, Wyloch. If you forgot regen or any other weapon/ability and an enemy unit had already activated, you missed your chance. It's like being a good sportsman when it comes to line of sight. 😂 The Father's day privilege is real!

[@DowntimeDad]

I had to laugh at this as I also have to beg my wife to play my "silly games" with me. lol She actually lasted quite a few sessions in D&D recently but finally bowed out because the sessions were anywhere from 3-5 hours. But she does enjoy the shorter board games with cards... She tends to like cards more than dice. I know, ridiculous. Anyway, cool video, and my team won! :)

[@Malgor00]

It was about a month from playing to output... the last 2 times y'all played it took Wyfloch 9 months to finish the output!

[@fraxz88]

That necron army looks good! I'd like to see some Wyloch mini painting.

[@cunningwarrior1827]

That was a good game and your wife is a good sport. And, she let you film her! I have two observations that might make your life easier. Someone may have already said this if they did I apologize. Get a dice tray. It give you a place to roll the dice and keeps them from going all over. If you can't find one in a store or online you like, they are cheap and easy to make and you can involve the kids in this craft project. Mine has a princess sticker on one side. The kids can even make their own since you are going to get them involved someday. I know you are the GrimDark Guy. That is how I found you and I subscribed. That being said, you might want to try a different rule set for a skirmish game for beginners. I use the Terminator Genisys Miniatures Game by Rver Horse/Warlord Games. The line died due to the poor reception of the movie, but the game is awesome. You can download the beginer's rules for free, and if you like them, you can get the get a print copy of the full rulebook. The game is tactical, but has very simple mechanics. My wife learned how to play watching me play versus an AI during lockdown. I have also taught several others how to play very quickly and it perfect for conventions. Did I mention that I never play using Warlord miniatures? I use what I have on hand and you could easily use your Necrons as Terminators with almost no tweeking. And, there are vehicles rules in the full rulebook, and fun things like overwatch. There is nothing like watching your Space Marine blast your opponent as they run by guys in overwatch. Liked the video, and keep up the good work.

[@dinosuarman13]

Btw love those blue dice with your logo on it

[@russellperhamii2629]

Dude! That was brutal!

[@williamtate6235]

10K points! Yes, please! Interested in doing the same myself.

[@vaughanb1963]

Great video "Bill" (yeah we all know it's Wyloch)

[@johntakacs9441]

Happy Father's Day! What a present. Your wife doesn't happen to have a single gorgeous sister in her 40's, does she? Lol, great game, I can see more in the future.

[@louiegent6935]

When you said the kids are upstairs i yelled "YOU HAVE CHILDREN"

[@WylochsArmory]

Haha two of em. 3 and 6.

[@notreallydavid]

Hi Wyloch + everybody. Do you ever think there ought to be a 'retreat if possible, die if you can't' possibility when morale fails - an outcome somewhere between Pinned and Rout? Sometimes units run away, and even perhaps regroup when they feel better. Other thought: how would it be if victorious units sometimes _had_ to charge the nearest enemy if their morale became too high? Regards to all, all

[@samthompson2980]

No, the British say 'Die' for 1 die as well, dice for plural! We should see more of her, she knows more than you 😂😂 (just kidding ❤❤) love your content and getting me into OPR

[@thecraftingbrothers9448]

Never played this game... But now I want to! Thanks, now I have to buy more stuff!!! LOL

[@jcephrie]

He's back! And he brought reinforcements! Huzzah! I have a thought, instead of doing mid-game landscaping, why not craft a dice tray?

[@LittleHillsTabletop]

Yay, wife cameo! I'm trying to get my wife into Star Breach and Malifaux. Could you please do a video on tips for getting your wife into wargaming (excluding Father's Day traps)?

[@DungeonMiser]

Wholesome

[@Nonexister1]

She wiped the floor with you.

[@ИльяКузнецов-м7ъ]

"Келли", значит... Сестра, наверное? ;-) Гламурненько... Лайк ;-)

[@RollforDamageRFD]

Love it!

[@Self-replicating_whatnot]

Never bothered to look into High Elf Fleets army book before. Those Distortion Guns, are they even for real? 12 range(so like a pistol or a flamethrower), 6 attacks with Rending which means they have AP of either "f*ck all" or "f*ck you and your power armor too". I am confused.

[@WylochsArmory]

Exactly. They simulate the molecule-thick projectiles that the guns fire out. Either they are blocked, or they cannot be blocked, totally depends on luck.

[@DiningTablePrintPlay]

"Well, the British say 'dice'" - only the uneducated ones! :P

[@garrapato]

Games Workshop and Mantic rulebooks also use dice for singular always.

[@clydemarshall8095]

She's clearly doing this out of love. It's really cute.

[@Decrepit_biker]

Great game! On point I am wondering about, the walker that was pinned, would then become un pinned in turn 4 so therefore reclaim the objective it was at (or at the very least contest it) would it not? Oh and she's definitely a keeper that one 👍👍

[@larryirish9498]

Wyloch - Excellent batrep! Your wife must be commended - she was patient, composed, and only used “The Look” a couple times (and honestly, you deserved it😄). A couple questions as I left the 1Pg40k camp a few years ago and am now getting back into GDF... 1. I *love* the force lists you made (seen at 1:24) - is there a template I could “borrow”, 2. I might have mis-interpreted the rules and what I saw in the vid - hits from Deadly weapon are all inflicted on one model but hits from Blast weapons can be applied across multiple models in a unit, right? ...and... 3. Do you have a video covering how you painted your Necrons? They look *good*! 👍🏻 TIA! - Larry

[@WylochsArmory]

1) Here - drive.google.com/file/d/1QVmX4gVi4nyFSKONIQWxRJM3S0FCY_Dw/view?usp=sharing 2) Correct 3) I do not. Simple though....base in black. Airbrush dark green, green, lime, and yellow in descending intensity to make the "blooming" areas. Hand-brush some gold on the details. Done.

[@larryirish9498]

Wyloch - Many thanks for the info and the template! While I’m being a pain in the back-side... your activation & status chits look *great* - did you make them yourself or purchase them? I’d be keen to get a set. Even just a jpg showing what the set of chits looks like would give me enough to make my own. TIA! - Larry

[@WylochsArmory]

@@larryirish9498 Here you go. Print them, apply clear packing tape (as lamination), then cut them out and glue to pennies (if you're US-based). drive.google.com/file/d/1Ln6l-o7JMY4r9TB7LtKG5huU2-E2cOtB/view?usp=sharing

[@larryirish9498]

@Wyloch Thank you *so* much! I greatly appreciate it as designing my own chits (while fun) can be time-consuming ...and I’ve got a pile of plastic Necrons (old & new) to paint. 🙄😆 ...and I’d never even thought of mounting them on pennies - I’ve always used chipboard (I know you’re no stranger to *that*!😀). Thanks for the idea. 👍🏻

Is this your wife?! You're lucky as hell!

[@tercoil]

Out of curiosity, what camera do you use for your battle reports? I'd like to get into filming my games, but not sure what equipment to get.

[@WylochsArmory]

Well, for these batreps I use my phone. The DSLR I use for my tutorials is AWFUL for motion, it takes forever to come into focus. Also, the battery life is about 10 minutes of video taking. So I am forced to use lower quality.

[@j453]

You should be proud.

[@FunnySongGuy]

The British say ‘die’! 19:49 , but don’t worry. Cool channel anyway...

[@WylochsArmory]

Sir, if you consult the Warhammer 40k 8th edition rule book you will see many instances of the singular object referred to as "a dice." Sir. :-D :-P

[@WylochsArmory]

And thanks very much for checking out my channel.

[@FunnySongGuy]

Wyloch's Armory I guess you’re right. I looked it up and dice is now an accepted singular in English, so both ways are right. It wasn’t always that way though, and I was certainly taught to use ‘die” as singular. And I’m thoroughly British. Never mind, splitting hairs eh?

[@WylochsArmory]

How so?

[@JB-ym4up]

@@WylochsArmory you flip them from red to blue and blue to red on blue turns red means activated on red turns blue means activated. That way the token stays on the table with the unit, never needing a token sweep. Use colors appropriate to the armies if you like.
