    Top-notch stuff! Love the more narrative/tactic-focussed style rather than the endless hours of dice rolling a lot of other battle reports seem to be. Also, "Comment tu t'appelle?!" as a battle cry feels like it's straight out of a Terry Pratchett novel. Only thing missing is movement trays ;)

    Found your channel today, and the battle reports are great, glad I stumbled into these videos while bingewatching painting videos while painting :) I think your method is great, I employed a similar one starting somewhere this July, but a bit more free-form - paint a mini for every day. Not necessarily on every day, and I can cheat with smaller scale ones (tho usually even with counting a strip of 10mm figures I end up with 30+), but it has been working really nicely, only exception was October, when I did only like 28, including a Stompa, so it gets a pass. Taking on the backlog and seeing all the cool minis I bought years ago getting painted and ready to play is a very good feeling, and I can really recommend everyone to start organizing their hobby efforts a bit.

    I love this video and this kind of battle reports, really cool! The skirmishing skinks' charge? Illegal indeed. In 5th edition WFB everyone is limited to a 90° frontal arc of view, including characters and skirmishers. From 6th onwards this changed, individual chatacters on foot and skirmishers were allowed a 360 vision. 5th edition was my first and it's still my favourite. Cheers! Happy holidays everyone!

    I'll take a humble 100 internet points for pointing out you said Pizarro's Legion instead of Pirazzo's Legion as it is in the rulebook. Common mistake though as Pizarro is the Spanish explorer of the Incan empire the unit is obviously based on. Not really a mistake in the rules though so I won't take the full 1000 internet points, just 100. Also kudos for using Pirazzo's legion because the Lizardmen do have a strong Aztec/Incan/Mayan influence so it makes complete sense as to them being allies.

    • @hammerthebacklog

    Another great video, mate! Those High Elves look sensational, personally they're an army that I've never wanted to collect but there is no denying how good they look all painted up. Coincadently, I was able to get my hands also on nine metal Men-at-Arms with shields and spears which I've been slowly painting up. I'm not a Bretonnian player but, again, there is no denying how great the models look.
