Would love to see a phot of each army in its entirety, before you start running through the lists and again at the end. Really helps get an impression of the army as a whole. Keep up the great work with the bat reps.
1:01:45 Units shot by Sun Killers cannot use a cover save or any damage mitigation saves (including evade), also you can re-roll glances to try for penetrating hits with the sunder rule
@@BearfootMiniatures I've actually tried running 20, even threw in a librarian to give them precision shots as well, it was horrific, but what 1k point unit isn't, also they got bullied quite badly since they drew all the enemy fire. My next plan is to run them with volkites, 100 shots per shooting attack, hitting on 2's and you still cant use cover or damage mitigation, so no apoth or heart of the legion saves....
I do aswell mate, I may even get some regular for a second force cos the asthmatic is so strong, I wanted a more industrial look for these as they’re auxiliary forces for my iron warriors
Cool game! I enjoyed the composition of both armies and would definitely like to see those emperor's children and auxiliaries back for more battles. Thanks guys :)
Cheers mate! I’m currently wearing Henry down on the topic (our problem is he’s really busy with work, but I’ll have him on as much as I can get him, and the auxilia will be around a lot!)
Great battle report, guys! Just a couple of things I picked up. 1. Heavy subtype doesn't give re-rolls for explosions. 2. Gets Hot weapons should be rolled for separately (because the same weapon might roll multiple 1s and those wounds wouldn't spill over to the rest of the squad).
Cheers mate glad you enjoyed it! Was a surprise on the rerolls! Won’t happen again haha The gets hot I think Henry just didn’t want to slow the game rolling separate (for the slim chance that it would save the second) but noted!
@@BearfootMiniatures I know it did last edition but I know there is a bunch of weird interactions now with weapons that have the blast type and other effects that are resolved using a blast template lol. Great vid btw, Reborn Cohorts here.
@@RobouteGman cheers mate! And I think your right on the explodes it’s just S8 hits (think I was just holding over from last Ed) which seems a bit wierd Oh cool! I want to expand into reborn when I can get more lasrifles painted, how are you thinking of running it in terms of scoring squads/how many veletaris?
the multilaser teams were the luna aux split up and repositioned in mesh mixer, there all in pieces (like the thigh, hand etc) so can be moved about quite simply and im saying that having editted those files starting at no experience with doing that stuff I may do a simple vid on it as its a massive selling point of the luna aux for me (well i love the look and knowing I wasnt "stuck" in someone elses chosen poses pushed me over the edge)
This batrep is making me want to get more Kakophoni. 20 of them just feels so groovy, load up with apothecaries and cognis signum techmarines - now BS5 with night vision, go for Night fight and enjoy the inevitable pinning!
Just on their Gets Hot - tedious though it is, you need to roll shots in groups of three rather than altogether as one dudes gun could get hot twice - that wound wouldn't spill over if he fails both saves. Can be almost as quick with different coloured dice though
I know it should be but the amount of wounds caused over a game henry was just happy to take additional casualties if that happened Especially as you say: with apothecaries, after the gets hot, armour save and FNP they survive a good amount of the time!
They’re prints (Luna auxilia) from That Evil One mate! I really recommend them! They’re really nice to work with and pretty simple to digitally mess with poses etc
First vid of yours I've watched. It was good. The only criticism I have are. This may have just been my TV, but at the start the Eidolon model looked a bit overexposed, so couldn't really see the paint job that well. Also I'm not sure if you are just house ruling this for time (I know lots do) but a squad with multiple shot "Gets Hot" weapons should roll each person individually, as they might have 1 model "get hot" multiple times, meaning it needs to make multiple saves, but those excess wounds don't carry over. This is kinda a big deal for Kakophoni, or Plasma Fusil in mech.
Cheers mate! I’ll have a look on the picture and project file and see where it went wrong (takes a while to export so pressing on and addressing in the future is the main address of the problem I can do) On the gets hot not really a house rule, I think Henry was just doing it like this to save there being 10 separate rolls (with having a 3+ and then a 5+FNP anyway) it makes the rolling of them easier even if it is better (like the old dark talons on fury’s last ed…
@@BearfootMiniatures I ended up buying 10 different colour dice sets so I could roll all 30 together quickly for my Kakophoni, not that I use the unit that often to be honest since I roll far too many 1's
Such a good weapon, shame we’ve not got an assault transport but an be mixed in I suppose to just put a bit of spice around Would’ve liked them on command squads aswell (since they can only take power axes) but is what it is can’t complain too much!
Great BatRep. One Point: I think the Kakophony has to roll the hit-rolls seperatly, ‚´cause of GETS HOT. It may be, that one guy rolls two 1, but he can only die one time. Greatings 😊
Thanks mate! And ye your 100% right on the gets hot should be done separate but Henry wanted to take the chance of losing extra I’m the name of him not hating rolling them all separately haha
The dedicated transports aren’t part of the tercio’s. Tercio’s specify what units are part of the tercio, the dedicated transports don’t get to benefit from the tercio reactions
@@BearfootMiniatures I don’t think most of the other stuff is as bad as people think it is, everyone keeps looking at stuff in a bubble and don’t think about the situations that may come up on the table
Going to make more over Christmas is the plan! Will be starting using the woodlands as LOS blocking to shoot through (unless people really don’t like that) as they need to not have trees everywhere to be playable moving through but it then makes a woodland board near impossible to put enough LOS blocking in
Would love to see a phot of each army in its entirety, before you start running through the lists and again at the end. Really helps get an impression of the army as a whole. Keep up the great work with the bat reps.

Lovely seeing all those Solar Auxilia on Minimagtrays. makes movement so much easier, especially with that many models 😅
Cheers mate! Will be putting in an order for my militia when they release aswell!
Loving the Solar auxilia! You need more rapier, so much awesome for so little. Thanks for the upload.
Ye: I think I’m going to get some las (to go with my 2 quads and 3 multi lasers) to get in some more AP2 into the army!
@@BearfootMiniatures Weight of dice helps and definitely AP 2 is key. I'm going to look into aurox once I get my book.

when the first SA transport explodes you are rerolling your armour saves due to heavy, but I cannot see anywhere that this counts as a blast weapon?
It doesn’t mate got it wrong on that one
Me just triggering myself staring at H's assault marine chilling with the tac squad for half the game.... 😄 Great game!
haha cheers mate! neither of us saw it atall, was it that obv all the way through?!?
@@BearfootMiniatures maybe not, you're not the only pedant here I guess!...I was shouting at the screen every time it appeared lol 😆
You really are living your best life cranking out these batreps. Jah bless barefoot.
Thanks mate! More to come as fast as I can make em!
where do they sell these solar models?
I imagine there’s some on Etsy mate, I printed these on my 3d printer (they’re the Luna Auxilia by That Evil One)
I was curious about it also, do you know where it indicates that vehicle explosions count for rerolls on heavy units?
I’ll have a look to get the page: I may be wrong (since you’ve brought it up I’m doubting) but I’m sure it counts as a blast (does/nt it?)

@@BearfootMiniaturesJust looked it up, sadly explosions from vehicles/dreads/etc do not count as Blast or Template weapons.
@@Sunburnedhalo such a shame: sort of feels they should like in 1.0, but wasn’t to be, I’ll inform Henry!
Love it! What a gent this Henry bloke :).
Also, does heavy give rerolls vs exploading vehicles? It did in v1 but I havent seen that rule in v2.
It doesn’t sadly got it wrong on that one (and cyclops can actually attack anything it seems!)
@@BearfootMiniatures I love v2 - but they need to reduce the str of exploding transports....
Fantastic Solar Army! How did you do the multilaser rapier teams?

Great job guys! Learned a lot from this and enjoyed it, keep it up! Apothecary MVP! 🤣
Cheers mate! I know so annoying, the apothecary definitely paid for himself!
Hard to tell 2s from 1s on those EC dice with the lighting, but I think it was just 2 or 3 gets hot
Ah gutted, I would say morale victory to Henry……
