Making narrative batrep videos for Warmachine & Warcaster from Privateer Press.
Also looking to make other Warmachine & Privateer Press-related videos as ideas come to me & time permits.

Sample - WM BR 008 - Khador Turn 02
The past 4 months have been beyond hectic for me. Direct hit from Hurricane Francine, 1 employee was hospitalized, 1 employee retired out of the blue, PC hard drive finally gave up the ghost, working 30-40 hours of OT every week for months on end...
Thankfully, we're recovered from the hurricane damage, the hospitalized employee is doing better / back at work, and the OT is dropped to around 20 hours a week covering for the retired employee. Getting time to work on our next batrep, but with everything that's gone on, I'm taking my time with it. I haven't had a good night's sleep in months.
Simple little sample of stupid test of animating something along a path. In the final video, it'll be a rocket and explosion animations, but to test the animation rigging here, I threw in some stupid text placeholders.

Warcaster Batrep 003 - Empyreans vs Marcher Worlds
มุมมอง 5346 หลายเดือนก่อน
I got back to playing my Marcher Worlds and Donna tried out Empyreans for the first time. We had a lot of fun with her exploring different synergies with the Empyreans and me trying to take advantage of the Marchers' movement shenanigans. While we do plan to keep the alternating batrep schedule of a Warmachine video followed by a Warcaster video followed by a Warmachine video and so on, I think...
Sample: Warcaster Batrep 003

A short sample from our next battle report for Warcaster: a simple new custom VFX animation that I made for when the "Ascension Catalyst" Cypher (grants flight) is cast on a warjack. Displaying it with energy wings in that particular faction's (Empyrean) colors.
Working On Original Artwork - Next Batrep
มุมมอง 327 หลายเดือนก่อน
I'm trying my hand at painting some original artwork to use in our next Warcaster batrep. The placement of the energy sphere & trail at the top of the head felt "off". So, I sketched a line that follows what would be the center and....yep...I need to fix the alignment of the energy trail & sphere. Back to the drawing board.
Choosing A New Intro Song For Warcaster Batreps
มุมมอง 638 หลายเดือนก่อน
Got some complaints about using the more-fantasy style music from our Warmachine videos in our Warcaster batrep intros. So, I'm trying to pick a new intro song just for our WC videos. Here are the 3 that I'm trying to choose from right now: 1 - "Noise Attack" 2 - "Zap Beat" 3 - "Cool Rock" All composed by & purchased from Kevin MacLeod / Incompetech
Warmachine MK4 Batrep #007 (Unlimited) - Cryx vs Skorne

Things have been pretty hectic in my work & personal life the past 6 months or so and unfortunately haven't slowed down. So, apologies once again for having a couple of months between our last Warcaster batrep and this one. I've been working on making more steps forward in my production with this video including new custom visual effects, creating faction-specific dice for each army, and more. ...
3 Samples of "Unlimited" Text Overlay

Editing our next batrep which will be our first one with the Unlimited version of MK4. I want to have a grungy, "dirty" font for the "unlimited" text that gets overlaid on top of the Warmachine logo. Right now, it's a toss up between these 3 fonts in the order shown in these sample clips: 1 - Big Bloke 2 - YouMurderer 3 - Destroy Earth Rough
WM Batrep 007 - Sample 02 "Custom Faction Dice" SFX
มุมมอง 16111 หลายเดือนก่อน
With each new video, I try to push myself and learn / improve in at least 1 or 2 areas. For this next batrep, I'm making a few new custom VFX and decided to replace the generic white & red dice animations I made when I first started with custom dice faces that represent the factions colored based on the paint schemes we went with our armies. I also made animations for a set of special dice that...
WM Batrep 007 - Sample 01 "Parasite" SFX
มุมมอง 10411 หลายเดือนก่อน
Working on some new custom SFX for specific spells. In this case, "Parasite" cast by Lord Tyrant Hexeris onto a Slayer warjack. I used Adobe After Effects to create some little worm animations and added a macabre mix of sickening sound effects. Bear in mind, this is just a quick sample made RIGHT after we wrapped up filming. So, there's no narration and the edit is pretty quick / rough.

First off, apologies for the delay. This video should have been out 2 months ago, but work and family got crazy recently. On top of several big situations at work that required lots of overtime, our family has been hit with different illnesses back to back from our grandson getting RSV to everyone of us being down for several weeks with a nasty virus. The frustrating thing is that I've made lot...

I was hoping to have this batrep done & uploaded 2 months ago, but family & work life have been hectic lately. I'm finally getting time to work on it again and caught a rule mistake that we missed when we first played & I missed it again when I recorded the narrative recreation for the batrep. Part of me wanted to trash the whole thing in frustration, but I opted to just add a note and push for...

I'm just getting back into hordes with my old circle army. This is great.
Love your content. Looking forward to seeing more when you can get to it.
I hope things smooth out. Love your batreps.
Here's hoping you can find time for more video-making. I find most other WM content on here unwatchable.
He knew that the skorn commander had 2 fury on him to toss off the damage and still blew through all of his focus boosting attack rolls with only a 6 needed to hit... INSTEAD OF BUYING MORE ATTACKS??? Not even the damage really needed to be boosted with him only having like 3 life left. Shame. He lost the moment he made that decision, but the rest was pretty well played.
You guys did a great job with this batrep I love the little story that went along with this and I hope you guys continue with the little story aspect for your batreps
Excellent battle report and cool narrating. Remus has survived a good number of warlocks at this point and seems to do well. I need to get Mohsar painted it seems.
An excellent battle report. I just got out my circle minis this week and started painting them. Homefully I can get some games in. You have skinwalkers in a lot of your battles. How do you feel they perform overall? I have 8 and a packleader to work with. I've been meaning to run them with Morvana.
To be honest, we first picked them up because they looked cool, but after we got to play them more and more, we've come to love them for more than just the look. Being able to heal d3 health each turn and +2 ARM against melee attacks can make them tough to deal with.
Xekaar dealt more damage than the rest of Skorne combined almost.
Bloat thralls are even more horrifying if you've read Gyo. The whole "scurry up the side of the building" thing is...I don't want to say realistic but urgh...
Well done lots of work went Into that video!
Thank you!
First time watching one of your guys batreps. really like how you do them and the shorter video length is nice.
With the Steam Forged Games acquisition have you thought about posting a link 🔗 to your channel on their Discord? It's pretty active.
I hadn’t thought about it, but that’s a great idea. Going do it now. Thanks!
@@steamsorcery9573Your stuff is like the Breaking Bad mythical blue meth of the Iron Kingdoms universe. 99.99 percent pure awesome.
Solid
Great work! Top quality battle report.
now that was way cool ! I will watch this a second time !
The screams when units get killed 😂
i love these.
Love this video. Where do you get your tokens?
Thank you! We got all of our tokens from Muse-On Minis website.
This is such a great batrep. I have not watched a warmachine game in a long time, and this is a great way to be reintroduced to the game.
It's good to see Fred the Razorworm again. It just rolls off the tongue.
awesome! Excellent video and sound effects!
Thank you!
I really enjoyed watching this vid! I'm just getting back into Warmachine so I'm just relearning the rules. When Gorshade went for his assassination run, is there a reason why he went for boasting hit and damage rolls instead of just making 8 attacks?
Honestly, I think it was just that some bad rolls before got into my head and had me worried that if I didn't boost, it'd be much worse. Unfortunately, even with boosting she had enough boxes open on a couple beasts to transfer the damage to & keep Hexeris alive.
Thank you for the reply! I wasn't sure if there was a rules reason. In the heat of battle, we always have to do what feels right. Please keep up the great Cryx content!!
This works !
Great game! Always happy to see Cryx.
Can you so updated faction focuses? Like what the big changes are from mk3 to mk4? And especially all of the new releases? I’m going to scour your videos to see if you haven’t not already done that
I haven’t made any like that yet. All my videos so far have been narrative batreps, but there are other channels that cover things like that including Tried & True Delaware Warmachine, Tyrants On The Field, The Ice King, and several others.
Have to say just found your channel and absolutely love it. Been down on mk4 but this channel is rekindling my love for the game. Thank you for the wonderful batreps. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! That means so much to hear
Mohsar was my very first hordes warlock because I like playing the game on hard mode😂
Damn I’m yelling in my head. Kill Tartarus! He’s so deadly and annoying.
Please more mk.IV batreps
We definitely have more planned. We just posted our 7th MK4 batrep a few weeks ago. We alternate 1 Warmachine batrep with 1 Warcaster batrep and just started working on our next Warcaster video today. Our next Warmachine batrep will be the first one with 2 new MK4 armies: Khador Winter Korps VS Orgoth Sea Raiders.
I am so curious what they are going to do to my protectorate and circle in the full mk.IV update. Krueger looks dope as hell.
Heyo, just wanted to ask, why did the pureblooded warpwolf not attack with his fists and then do the howl? He has dual attacks, i don't know if anything changed since this battrep, but i believe he could swing twice with his fists and then howl
I'm confused what attack you're referencing. He did use dual attack all 3 times he attacked (13:52, 21:55, and 28:00). He howled and then clawed at models that were in his melee range each time. Bear in mind that in my earlier batreps, I didn't show attack rolls; only damage rolls. So on claw attacks he missed, I described it in the verbal narration and showed a special effect for it, but did not show the failed rolls.
@@steamsorcery9573 Ahhhh, so the claw attacks were AFTER, and for some reason i thought they were "bought" with fury, when thet were probably boosted to hit and damage
Pretty good bat rep. I love skorne but the skronergy put excess unnecessary mental load back when I used to play. How are they now?
I mostly play Orgoth these days, but when I do break out my Skorne, I do pretty good. I like to focus on Exalted and all the funky things I can pull off between Abidan, Hakaar, Hexeris, etc
This is of such amazing quality, and the subdued narration is perfect for laying in bed and listening too!
Thank you! I really tried to focus the narration on a more flavorful version - letting the visuals tell the details in the story
Best battle rep I've seen in a long while. Extra points for Skorne! Double extra points for Skorne victory! Keep up the good work
Thank you!
Love when bat reps concentrate on the minis and not the dice rolls. Folks spend many hours painting, and are lost on a bad camera angle.
Really great and awesome battle report once again. Thank you for the production value mate !
Thank you! I tried some new things to push the production value a bit more in this one.
Wow! so cool!
You may have caught it in post but in the second round of combat between rampart, pyre and the bane warriors, you didnt roll an extra dice as the banes are weapon masters and always throw three dice for damage. S tier battle report as always 👌👌
Yeah. I’ve only played Banes a few times and I totally missed them having weapon master several times.
Always a great time watching your Battle Reports. A lot more Lore and Action in your battles than most. Please keep up the good work.
Good stuff! I hope you are able to release monthly like you're wanting to. A small mistake I noticed around 31:21 is that the bane warriors were not getting their weapon master dice.
Yeah. I've only played Banes a handful of times & I'm awful at forgetting they're weapon masters so far.
I love these types of battle reports. I wish you did them more often. Congrats.
Excellent battle report! Love your effects and narrative style ❤️
Thank you! I know it’s not the typical batrep style most people prefer, but my wife & I love getting into the “story” of the game as it plays out on the table & we try to recreate that in our videos.
Awesome video, beautiful minis, great production value. Keep up the good work. That said, please please stop boosting attack rolls when you hit on a 6+ (or easier), you should rather invest your resources elsewhere.
Love the visuals and narrative. Super fun watch. But when the scourge didn't hollowphage the aeon after that first hit for the kill, and then also didn't spike to stun module the heavy warjack after hitting it with the claw, that hurt me a bit lol But I know it's all about the story and drama of the fight, so it's all good!
Those dice animations! :O <3 And the bonejack has a chicken sound effect, this battle report is a gift that keeps on giving
I’m glad to hear the chicken sound effect wasn’t lost on anyone. That was one of my happiest moments when I thought to do it
Huzzah,, who would have thought that the undead would be hard to kill. The effects are just so wonderful. Thank you, Thank you..
The terrain is nice too, overall content makes me a subscriber.
Thank you! These videos are a passion project & I hope that my love for the game reflects in them.
@@steamsorcery9573 - oh it Surely does. On I and many others appreciate.
Nice job as always =)
Thank you!
My wife said “what are you watching? It sounds legit, like a Ken Burns documentary!”
High praise. Thank you!
Maaaan the polish on your videos is so good! It's always a great surprise to see these show up in my feed
