This was absolutely epic and so pleased to be part of this battle report. Loved doing those coaching moments and if anyone has any questions about our free masterclass for you awesome legends then please let me know. I don’t know who to cheer for as I love Steve and Tanya both equally. So here is to letting the hobby win today.
I really hope you do more of this. I loved the cutaway moments of strategy discussion. It added a nice touch and increased the already exceptionally high production value of Play On videos.
Stop trying to sell your services! I used to watch your channel, but then it just became a marketeering show ... like commercials for "join my gym THEN i give you the secrets." I watch batreps to be entertained, not sold to.
imagine a rule where the more lasguns fire at a target the stronger they become, like all the laser heat on the target from so many lasguns begins to melt armour
We enjoy making content that connects us with the community and beyond. We feel pretty good about the way we do things and present the game. Thank you for watching!
@@PlayOnTabletop one thing I particuarly like, is overhead shots. Gives good idea of whats going on on board, sometimes hard to see on other channels, so great idea! Ty for all hard work u put into content, amazing to watch
The Redemptor: "I am an immortal servant of the Emperor; returned from death and encased in a machine body built for naught but war!" The scout sentinel pilot: "I'm just some guy in a mechanical chicken and frankly I'm not afraid of you"
This game seems a lot more casual than the usual games and is a little more friendly to people like me with little game experience. Love vids like these!
When Tanya asked to touch Steve's dice and he said "Sure".... I could feel the pain that was about to be inflicted on his army. Hopefully he's learned his lesson.
"Is this the year of Steve??" No, no its not. And its good that way. Because of him, PlayonTabletop is one of the only channels where the damm tin cans dont win all the time. For that you are my hero Steve. :)
In a time when connections are the most important, we are looking to local legends and global content creators to bind our gaming community together with great vibes and even better games
That was pure awesome! Both armies are gorgeous. Warmistress stepped up and represented the guard codex brilliantly. If only that Manticore could have spoken once or twice. Would love to see her army in action on more battle reports. Thanks for sharing.
@@wargrizzero5158 clearly she must run the whole play on tabletop gauntlet! For uhh glory and umm honor or something! And definitely not just as an excuse to see her on the channel more!
the Warmistress playing 40K on hard mode and making it look easy, such a close game. the energy and atmosphere at the table was almost palpable, a massive well done to everyone that was involved in making this video.
This was absolutely riveting!!! Really enjoyed the multiple cross overs with Warmistress and Vanguard Tactics. The cut aways to Stephen Box were great! Tanya piloted the IG superbly, and contributed to a close match. Happy for Space Marine Steve, on his first official victory. PLAY ON! 🤠👍
*SPOILER ALERT* He's only bloody gone and done it! Valiant push from the Guard but holy hell, this ep had everything! Dancing Captain part 2, The Dancening - Redemptor madness - Heck Hounds cutting the map in half and holding the lines. Tres good! Very tres good! Bien, in fact! Very, very tres bien!
@Spirit Of The Gorg A month late, but I think he didn't charge it because he was afraid of the flamer's overwatch. (considering the fact that that gave it an extra turn or two of shooting though, I'm not sure it was the best decision)
While there may be a way that the chapters are giving away the score - we hope that spoilers don't appear here at least until after the premiere. We hope we can all have fun watching this together.
I don't even play 40k, I play AoS. But the editing and narration make it so easy to follow along with what is happening, I've basically learnt how to play at this point. Best battle reports on youtube
Play On tables always look great, but this is the best table I’ve seen in any battle report on TH-cam period. Absolutely beautiful and tactically balanced I love it
I stumbled upon this channel at work. Havent played since 7th edition. Now I have 1000 points of new tau models i need to paint and brought my space puppies out of retirement! Thank you for sparking my love for the hobby once more!!! PLAY ON!!!
This was your best battle report so far. It really felt like Marines vs. Guard and had some awesome moments - Commander Kevin, that Captain, that Sentinel action. Would have liked to see even more analysis by Stephen. Also kudos to Tanya and Steve. Great sportsmanship there. Top notch production value as always. Liked the end credits. All in all great episode.
This partnership with Vanguard was a great idea! Having someone break down what a player did right or could’ve done better with their list really helps with understanding and improving your own game. Keep it up, please!
I had to pause BECAUSE EVERYTHING FROM 37:00-39:30, that is the stuff of complete legend, give that man a hotshot pack AND DONT LET ANYBODY TOUCH YOUR DICE. Absolutely dying over here. :') EDIT: Right, that turned into a nail biter right to the end! Not bad for a training simulation to test the guardsmen ahead of their campaigns to come. >.>
You guys are doing god's work. I don't know how you did it but you made a slow, very theoretical board game become engaging to watch as much as it is to play for the average viewer. I can share this with friends. Thank you.
Awesome to see the true heroes of the Imperium taking to the field, (I am of course referring to the Imperial Guard). Well played Tanya, as a Guard commander myself- really enjoyed seeing your army hitting the Space Marines where it hurts :)
The armies are beautiful, the commentary is great, the music is epic AND it's in under an hour. Only battle reports I actually watch, these are so good
This is great haha. First time watching any of this channel's battle reports. Charismatic people, well painted miniatures, good data displays, the music works... I feel involved as part of the audience when they get excited about those near-miss rolls.
Loved this one, the warmistress put up a good fight but finally a win for Steve👊🏼 awsome job both of them. The commentary and editing deserves an fistbump aswell 👊🏼
Wanted to let you all know at Play On...yall have reignited my interest in 40k and now getting back into it! Keep up the amazing work you all do on this channel and the showcases/battreps!
The way you guys bought the Vanguard Tactics sponsor in was fantastic. Really added value to the video. The production value of your channel is already off the charts but you continue to innovate. Huge congrats to all involved :D
After sleeping for 20 years, I've finally awakened to start playing warhammer again (like the necrons but not as awesome) , introducing my daughters to it also. Love it and love this channel.
Great game for both players, and a very enjoyable video as always from the crew of 40k In 40Mins! Id love to see Warmistress back in the future for more matches! A cool army and, again, a great game!
Jesus! I was rooting so hard for Steve. I'm happy he did win in the end. But Tanya pulled her own weight very much. She may be defeated but the Guard broke before she did.

I really enjoyed the breakdown of moves from a tactical perspective. I’d love to see your commentary added to more games on POT!
The way she said "Come at me bro", with the perfect amount of boldness and lack of confidence is the embodyment of Astra Militarum
I absolutely loved it!
if Tarantino was a nerd hed be steve
@@stephenr80 does Steve like feet? Or excessive use of blood?
I had a friend that named his manticore “deny the witch test” and only shot psychers with it.
Must've had a hard time fighting necrons then
Yea

that's gold!
Your friend is a national treasure 😂😂
"He who scoffs at the power of the Lasgun, has not moved through a field of a thousand of them."

“Hey bro how did you die?”
“I solo three elite space marins and force them to use their Psychic.”
On one hand, I wanna root for poor Steve. On the other hand...the Imperial Guard is freaking awesome!!!!!
We couldn't pick a side either.
@@PlayOnTabletop well you're technically both of them in this case...
The Redemptor: "I am an immortal servant of the Emperor; returned from death and encased in a machine body built for naught but war!"

I love this.
He really does deserve a promotion! 🤣

Loving Tanya's banter, even when she's playing to win she's encouraging Steve
I love how much fun they're both having, it's infectious. My favorite moment was when they both went into sing song voice lol
I love both of them, so funny and wholesome
So wholsome.

Anyone else passing the time by rewatching old 40k in 40 episodes as well?
We really appreciate this! It is very humbling that our past episodes can be watched more than once.
@@PlayOnTabletop I finally got my dad to watch one! It was the apocalypse match between imperium and tyranids from 2019, and he loved it!
I watch all their games while I paint my army. In my opinion they are the best 40k game channel
@@pantsmage970 my painting routine is always start 40k in 40 Minutes, get the paints and just keep going :D
@@SkyPhoenix_3991 it’s the best way! Really get you in the mood to do it !
This was by far one of most interesting games i've seen. This game was so close the whole time.

GO STEVE! GO!
The year of THE Steve has begun.
By 2 points.
Eyyy a W is a W. :P
Just running a mike check here. Can you see this message?
It’s fantastic that these batreps are starting to feel like massive crossover episodes. Nice work building the community up!

The models alone make it worth the watch
second that!
the models + the score and sports style accouncements makes this channel the Emperor of wargamer channels
pity they're primaris though. Other than that they look amazing.
Those guardsmen are crisp. THE SHARP LINES ON THE AQUILA
She definitely needs to come back and play again she fits right in.
That was pure awesome! Both armies are gorgeous. Warmistress stepped up and represented the guard codex brilliantly. If only that Manticore could have spoken once or twice. Would love to see her army in action on more battle reports. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing game, get Tanya back on the show ASAP!
yes!
She and Steve had a super fun dynamic to watch!
I’d love to see her and Nick fight.

Agreed! the production and editing is top notch!
If her early game rolling had been a little better it could have been a very different game. Still absolutely edge of your seat at the end
*SPOILER ALERT*
He's only bloody gone and done it! Valiant push from the Guard but holy hell, this ep had everything! Dancing Captain part 2, The Dancening - Redemptor madness - Heck Hounds cutting the map in half and holding the lines.
Tres good! Very tres good! Bien, in fact! Very, very tres bien!
More Guard on the channel and 2000 points would be great!
this!
Next time, Steve... dont let her touch your dice!
I don't know why, but at 33:55 when she said "the mustache gets an attack" got me good
This may be my favorite not-Killteam Battle Report you've done. Love everything: The armies, the strategies, the editing, the attitudes
F for the poor sentinel you did your job very well
F
@Spirit Of The Gorg A month late, but I think he didn't charge it because he was afraid of the flamer's overwatch. (considering the fact that that gave it an extra turn or two of shooting though, I'm not sure it was the best decision)
F
F and a salute 🫡
Astra Militarum army is painted SO well!
Good job.
eye candy
Loving the dice roll editing on this, very quick but still getting most important rolls in and the comments about them.
I also love how Steve just backs his implusor into the hellhound, that driver just threw in reverse and floored.
So astra millitarum vs astral claws, this is going to be interesting, place your bets here folks! Edit: got the name wrong and corrected it.
For me it's a clear win for the orkz
I'll bet Imperial Guard, the table will break before they will
finally, someone can tell me what chapter those space marines are, i thought they were iron hands!
Imperial gaurd. The Astral claws stand no chance against them
While there may be a way that the chapters are giving away the score - we hope that spoilers don't appear here at least until after the premiere. We hope we can all have fun watching this together.
Cuts him in half with her gaze..."thats ok, i still have a heavy bolter"
Love Tanya's guard, some subtle conversion to make them unique but a clean parade ground paint job. Top stuff.
Rooting for guard!
late here but have to comment on my love of the player chemistry here, the timid cheerful with the full on sass was just so entertaining to watch
Though our tanks and artillery are mighty, it is the vast ranks of Imperial Guardsmen that shall trample the enemy to dust - let them come.
The Tyranids agree. Let us come. Your biomass will be used as required.
The quality of these videos is simply astonishing. You guys have a bright future ahead of yourselves !
This might be your best and most dramatic battle report EVER!
24:01 it's a song from the 90s: tubthumping. The band is chumbawumba. "I GET KNOCKED DOWN, BUT I GET UP AGAIN"

I hope Tanya The Warmistress returns!
She did
the legitimate joy on her face when she transferred her juju and that bad roll from steve
pure gold
Well that was lovely. Great job team
When we can we are playing a game, Winters. As soon as we can. It's happening!
Winters... I would love to play you someday.
I love how the commentary is very similar to something like Battle Bots or other sports. This is amazing hahaha
Nice Job to both players! That was a blast to watch. I didn't even know who to root for, it was so good!
These are definitely the best battle reports on TH-cam right now, love them! Keep up the good work guys
Watching Steve's warlord survive like "I want every gun we have to fire on that man"....
This is definitely best gaming channel on TH-cam. Every battle report is better than the last. Keep that great work guys!
Man, take a second to apptrciate the paint job on those Leman Russes, unreal 👌👌 couldn't say which one is better, both are that good
The color coding is a really really smart idea I like that and it looks very cool each squad being mlre unique.

Ah boy here we go again
You guys keep on killing it. Always excited to see your batreps! Don’t think I have missed a single one

Steve was born to be on camera. he's hilarious
Compared to his first outing the guy has developed what could only be described as stage presence. His antics on kill team challenger are hilarious
Actually basically everything on this channel is hilarious!
Awesome battle report, i thought she was going to come back and take it in the end!
Jesus! I was rooting so hard for Steve. I'm happy he did win in the end. But Tanya pulled her own weight very much. She may be defeated but the Guard broke before she did.
This was an amazing batrep! Great guest this week; hope to see more of her army!
"One of us is hilarious, and one of us is devilishly handsome. The other is Steven Vox"
