I think the big thing about Brad's command point rerolls is that he has to stop rolling ones. If he just rolls higher numbers then it's a much better play.
That;s why I've always been baffled by players who leave their bases undone - the more I am in the hobby, the more I think that bases are easily as, if not more important than your actual paintjob on the model, while taking a fraction of the time to do. And this is a great example of that kind of theming. Without the base it would be just white smeared all over some poor guardsman, with that snowy base it looks great.
Alright, I'll admit it: I found this channel in the summer because I was interested in Shatterpoint and you did a great battle report for that... but then the production quality and personality was so good that I ended up watching everything since then, most of which has been Kill Team. ... and now I am sort of interested in Kill Team. GW needs to give you gents a sponsor. Congrats on another great video and keep them coming. PS: I actually love the Extraction Team, regardless of how good they might be. Unpopular opinion, maybe, but they look great with their aesthetic and lore.
Yes, exaction squad looks and feels good...its just bad. Im glad you feel interested in KT its a great and fun game imo, one of the best around, this point can and will probably be argued upon. But to each their own. But it would make me sad to see you have a bad KT experience playing a team that you need to bend over backwards to experience a fighting chance OMEGALUL
@@TheRainfield I appreciate the heads up, but no need to worry: I'm an Eagles fan, so I'm used to disappointment. Joking aside, I generally am a sucker for a nice looking mini, so that team will probably be in my future and I'll just have to work on my humility.
I love the way your vet guard are painted, and that hardened vet blocking the way into a huge demo kill was fantastic! truly a hero, that holder of the gap.
What the heeeeck! I literally bought the Exaction Squad an hour ago!!! I havent watched the video yet but Im excited as heck! Please keep these battle reports going. The quality is genuinely the best of any channel on TH-cam 🎉
I play exaction squad too, it's difficult to get into a position where you overwhelm your opponent, but there is this battle I will remember forever... I was against my friend playing necrons, he obliterated all of my units over the first turns but 3 shield guys and the malocator and I haven't got a single model... But then I reached him and locked him into melee fight and bonked all those necrons to death hahaha
Another awesome content by Mountainside! You guys easily make some of the best BatReps on YT. Nice paintjobs, fantastic pacing and the high quality of the production makes it a pleasure to watch. Mountainside, GFN and Grimdark Gamers are my favorite channels. Maybe in the distant future we will see a cooperation BatRep of Brad and Vic playing against Jester and Gregor. That would be awesome. Sadly the distance makes it seem unlikely.
I think this map wasn't a good setup. Lots of open line of sight through the board, and a vantage point easily accessible on turn 1 overlooking the deployment zone.
I was so excited to see Vet Guard being played! Was always a fan of the snorkie death chasing trench gremlins, and to see them played to their absolute lore accurate fullness was a real treat! Thanks Brad & Vic for another awesome video!
Haha! Never. Never. Never waste all your remaining CPs on rerolls :) If it wasn't meant to be in the first roll, then that's what it is. Still, good motivator for commenting ;) Good content guys.
Good production quality, as always. Entertaining game for what did play out. Too bad the dice chose to taketh away this time. Definitely prefer to see a game run closer than what came out this time. Such is luck though. ‘Til next time.
As an Arbites fan, for the love of the Lex, get a sniper and Revelatum! But it was, as described, a meta leaned Vet list into a jank Exaction Squad, so its just too bad.
I think the whole demo thing could have been avoided if one of the subductors just fought killed the hardend due to hitting on 2+ with support. Then charged the demo guy to keep him tied up.
Yeah I agree. Turn 1 he should've just killed the Hardened rather than just passing. Conceal most operatives until turn 2 then skelp with shot guns. They complain about playing Exaction and then play them wrong. Kain fit I mean like? 🤣
Love seeing the vet guard kill team. I didn't realize they can have 4 extra guys. I always play the auxileray as the bombing runs. I will have to try that if I have the extra units lol.
Hell yeah! I love the Krieg veterans, cool to finally see them on my favourite KT channel (and even with a win). Bummer for Brad, but the demo man can do some crazy damage, it is usually more than you expect. On the command rolls, maybe just go cold turkey and forbid using them for a game or two? It is the most boring way to spend CP anyway.
Instead of a second exaction squad box you should get some hearthkyn. I’d love to see them on this channel. I know y’all would paint them up sick and give them a cool beat.
Wow, this is such TERRIBLE terrain set up! Drop Zones should be mostly safe to deploy, there shouldn't be so much opportunity for almost unrestricted shooting at enemy models TP1 before they even have a chance to move! It just makes the entire opening of the game a pointless exercise in dice rolling because all these attacks are unavoidable. Hahaha, I Blast-ed your group of models on my first move and it's game over, good game... No. You should absolutely -put more heavy, visibility blocking cover in drop zones -put obscuring or visibility blocking terrain in the middle so that light cover in drop zones can't be easily negated from Vantage Points readily accessible from opposing drop zones
yo, I don't think that you can dash with vets before game starts with Into the Breach, you just get a free Dash in a activation not an immediate dash before TP starts
I was so excited by exaction squad when they hadnt released....how is that team any good or fair....Its just a terrible horde team...i dont understand. Someone explain? even after buffs and stuff...still terrible
Not gonna lie I get it's probably a joke but hearing the "I'm gonna probably concede" every time is just irritating at this point. Usually enjoy the rest of the vid otherwise but man lmao it's grating.

This is a John Madden level statement 😎👍
Vic here - I hope Brad never sees this tip because I'm totally screwed if he takes your advice.
That snow theme on the Vet Guard looks awesome!

13:36 Vox-signifier hits on 3+ with the Close-range profile so Brad used two CP to re-roll hits into misses
When dad brain ruins your chances at winning a game of Kill Team ☹️
@@MountainsideTabletop If it helps, you 100% would've lost anyway
With that demo play, yes 🤣
What the heeeeck! I literally bought the Exaction Squad an hour ago!!! I havent watched the video yet but Im excited as heck!

My entire friend group plays Kill Team and we LOVE watching these every time new ones come out. We love the production quality!!
Me seeing the video is 20 minutes long: “Poor brad”
The Arbites theme SLAPS. Will it be released at some point so I can at least get my butt kicked while listening to it
Incroyable.
Is SLAPS good or bad?
@@johntailby74 slaps is very good
I like the not quite Imperial March music for the snow troopers.
The snowtroopers look awesome. This was a fun match to watch, especially that demolition
Discovered you guys very recently. Love the little narrative intros: they add some fun flavour to the videos! Really enjoying your Kill Team content.
Hell yeah, absolutely AWESOME looking vet guard!
Yeah, I got some in my pile of shame, now I’m going to get them done and I know my paint scheme l!
The terrain, vet guard and mat all matching is so satisfying.
Imagine how strong Vic’s inquisition team will be with 6 of the best guardsmen in their pocket.
I play exaction squad too, it's difficult to get into a position where you overwhelm your opponent, but there is this battle I will remember forever...

Something good to watch before I go to bed. Thanks Mountain side table top 💜
VG was born to win with the shooting gallery terrain setup :(
All of your themes are awesome, but the Arbites one in particular is just perfect. You guys rock.
First video I've watched of you guys. The tactical map/overview recap is such a great production addition.
Kudos to your bravery with the music for the Vet Guards.

Brad's distraught face at the end... I feel you bro. Been there... Getting eaten alive.
both teams ive been waiting on thank you little boys❤️❤️❤️
I find it funny how it's like "Oh four extra men is the meta choice like you aren't taking 14 Krieg models into a game, that's a win by itself
awesome, legally distinct Imperial March music and snow paint for the guard!! Very dope
Good production quality, as always. Entertaining game for what did play out. Too bad the dice chose to taketh away this time. Definitely prefer to see a game run closer than what came out this time. Such is luck though. ‘Til next time.
Just want to say - music theme for Exaction Squad is dope!
Omg this intro is awesome.
Vet guard look awesome!
I am never not amused by your kill team games.
As an Arbites fan, for the love of the Lex, get a sniper and Revelatum!
But it was, as described, a meta leaned Vet list into a jank Exaction Squad, so its just too bad.
I think the whole demo thing could have been avoided if one of the subductors just fought killed the hardend due to hitting on 2+ with support. Then charged the demo guy to keep him tied up.
But he just in death resolve it what ever the hardened so they don't die. Till there activation. Then active the demo guy
@RobCunninghamofAwesometon yeah 100% right dude my bad. Aw well I guess not clustering together would have been a better counter 😂.
Sheeeeeeeet. Got yo ass!
Yeah I agree. Turn 1 he should've just killed the Hardened rather than just passing. Conceal most operatives until turn 2 then skelp with shot guns. They complain about playing Exaction and then play them wrong. Kain fit I mean like? 🤣
13:56 Glorious. Kreig has atoned 😂
Hardened and Demo MVPs! As it should be.
Vet guard looking fresh. And that Exaction song is sick!
That imperial marxh theme is really nice
Love seeing the vet guard kill team. I didn't realize they can have 4 extra guys. I always play the auxileray as the bombing runs. I will have to try that if I have the extra units lol.
Great to see non-KT terrain being used - I think many are overly wedded to using nothing but the killzones sets.
I guess the shield guys are great... but not against a demolition charge.
Need a meta Exaction squad instead of a sacrificial lamb that looks really cool.
Love your batreps guys!
Hell yeah! I love the Krieg veterans, cool to finally see them on my favourite KT channel (and even with a win).
Bummer for Brad, but the demo man can do some crazy damage, it is usually more than you expect. On the command rolls, maybe just go cold turkey and forbid using them for a game or two? It is the most boring way to spend CP anyway.
Any timeline for more Warcry? The narrative games are what lead me to your amazing channel!
This vets looks amazing
Arbites hit on 3+ not 4+ with shotguns! the shot at 13:30 was a kill!
I was just thinking about you guys and how I missed watching your battle reports
Yall did my boi Brad dirty with that exaction 🤣
I always like the intro music the kill teams have, where I can a find a video just being each factions' theme?
Exaction squad song is great.
Poor Arbites, they just can't get a break for once 😂. Also, watching this vid made me realise I always have been playing Guardsmen Orders wrong.
I’m so jealous I didn’t come up with that colour scheme for vet guard, it looks so good and so much faster to paint!
Great krieg theme
Instead of a second exaction squad box you should get some hearthkyn. I’d love to see them on this channel. I know y’all would paint them up sick and give them a cool beat.
We need to see Exaction Squad vs Warp Coven, that way one of them can finally get a win.
great battle report!
Exactions a good team. Id say grab the extra box and give a shot. Atleast you can use them in 40k also
Not usually a fan of OSL, but it looks great with the arctic colours.
Tough game for the arbites. This game would have gone very differently if there had been some heavy cover in the deployment zones.
All those rocks were heavy!
@MountainsideTabletop calm down, Sisyphos! :p
Please guys where does that terrain come from? Its amazing.
I just bought these two boxes and was wondering how they would spare against each other!
5:49 brought to you by chronic…from the basement..playing Warhammer. Are you 21 year old me?
Great vet guard colors!
Really respecting your restraint in not adopting a Scottish accent every time you said demo man
why do you not use the Imperial Guard Theme from Dawn of War for the guard?
Howd you paint the powersword? It looks great!
I plate a killteam game 1 min before this was uploaded with kreig
Guys, around the 9:00 the squad charge on council 😅😅
Can we have painting videos from you guys? 😊
Dudes... LETS GO
Anyone know why they start TP1 with 4 CPs instead of 3?
Spending a re-roll on 4+ isn't terrible in my mind. Doing it on a 5 or 6 is more questionable.
Nice cp reroll into snake eyes.... New years resolution broken in three games =(
Wow, this is such TERRIBLE terrain set up! Drop Zones should be mostly safe to deploy, there shouldn't be so much opportunity for almost unrestricted shooting at enemy models TP1 before they even have a chance to move!

You should absolutely
-put more heavy, visibility blocking cover in drop zones
-put obscuring or visibility blocking terrain in the middle so that light cover in drop zones can't be easily negated from Vantage Points readily accessible from opposing drop zones
What happened to Warcry? ;(
Whats gunna happen when we pit one of the best teams against one of the worse?
20 min video? Ok let's see how bad it is.
Yay
Lol. One sided match-up.
Stop the re-rolls my guys!
OUHCHHHH
Yeah, please don’t not check out this mat… or something?
Sorry bout your luck there, Brad 😬
I love everything about y’all’s videos, except the intro voice, gives me the cringe chills! 😂😂
1 hp speedrun
DIABEEEETUUUUS!
yo, I don't think that you can dash with vets before game starts with Into the Breach, you just get a free Dash in a activation not an immediate dash before TP starts
That is incorrect. The dash has to happen when you do the strategic ploy.
I was so excited by exaction squad when they hadnt released....how is that team any good or fair....Its just a terrible horde team...i dont understand. Someone explain? even after buffs and stuff...still terrible
4 subs is kinda bad with the exaction squad.
Not gonna lie I get it's probably a joke but hearing the "I'm gonna probably concede" every time is just irritating at this point. Usually enjoy the rest of the vid otherwise but man lmao it's grating.

first
Cool production as always. The intro voice is still cringe af
