The thing I find so fascinating about that elf colour scheme is how it's so ugly yet so high effort. Like every model had to have cheetah print hand painted on. It's crazy
The br is very cool, i really love the new way of making them, but guys U CANT RESIST BLALCK DARTS/FIREBALLS casted on mtds, u just simply cannot. U only can do this if ur modes have got resistant to magic/fortify spirit or have will in its own store like shadowfax. Its second time U do this in a battlereport which u call competetive. Btw the Seans army looks gr8
I feel like this is during the era when Elrond got really into Real Housewives of Imladris. That leopard print is a ridiculous paint scheme, but it’s really well done!
HI Jacob, as the first YT i watched when starting this hobby and as my go to for MESBG, I would consider supporting you on Patreon. Nice move with WK to squeeze through that gap. and Seans Paint job is beautiful, those cloaks are amazing. Thanks for doing this batrep, as ever they are amazing thanks.
Great video 👌 but I must say that I'm not the biggest fan of that color scheme 😅 I have 3 questions: 1- can a Hero benefit from a Heroic Combat and also a Heroic Strike in the same Fight phase? I thought 1 Hero could only benefit from 1 Heroic Action in each phase 😬 2- The other question is about the Heroic Challenge between the Witch King and Elladan: shouldn't it end with the death of one of them? 3- Since the Rivendell Knight failed the Courage test, shouldn't he stay still this turn? Maybe I didn't see it right, but I think he moved Thanks and sorry for these noob questions 🙏
Hahahah I totally agree it is a very odd scheme. 1. In this situation there were 2 heroes in the same combat. One of them called a heroic strike and one of them called a heroic combat. This is totally fine, However each hero is only able to call a single heroic per phase which means that a hero can not Strike and Combat in the same turn. 2. This heroic challenge means that they must fight each other every turn until one of them is dead. In this case the Witch King died becuase of the Will of Evil special rule that means that once he runs out of will he is banished 3. You are totally correct on this one. In that phase Sean accidentally moved the knight that had failed his courage test but that knight should have stayed still. Thanks for the questions!
@@ConquestCreations Hey Jacob, thank you for taking the time to answer 🙏 1. I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, I'm still learning the game 😅 The rules say “A model may only benefit from a single Heroic Action, of each type, in each phase.“ is there any exception for this rule? 2. oh, I didn't know how the Heroic Challenge worked, great, thanks! No model can interfere in the fight, right? Thanks!
Aw man, this is awesome! I’m looking to get back into MESBG and fancy starting with a Rivendell army. Is that a good place to start? Is the game worth getting into in 2024?
It's the perfect time to be getting into the game! There is a new edition coming out very soon. My guess is 6-8 weeks away. A new starter kit has been announced so the game is going to be growing even larger. If you are ready to start. I wouldn't pick up any of the rule books at the moment because in the new edition there will be new ones but you can start collecting miniatures and painting your aemy
At 13:30, why is Elrohir not winning the fight? He has fight6 and throws a 6. The other 6 was from a normal soldier with fight 4. Only if the Whickking spent 2 might he had won, because of his fight10 this turn
Nice battle report. I like the Fog of War objectives, I'll have to try that in a game some time. I vote yes to Patreon. Also, your bait worked perfectly: I'm actually only commenting to say I hate the paint scheme!
@@NoobsandMen See, if you really want to be spiteful, you'd only paint half the model and leave the other half unpainted. Worst of both worlds that way.
I can respect the creativity on those elves... the leopard spotted cloaks and midnight horses are very unique. However yes those are the ugliest elves lol no offense man. The green cloth is too much for me
wait shouldnt Sean get another point for killing a leader? Or it doesnt count since witch king dissapeared from lack of will? Sorry im a new player and videos help me lern.

Those lil shits took me way too long to paint.

🧀 The Cheese Knights of Emmental Vale, looking at them makes me lactose intolerant.
Hope you have a good supply of toilet paper.

@@NoobsandMen 😁
Gosh you guys in Australia really got some exotic paint jobs. Your Moria, Isengard and now this safari Rivendell. :D
Good lord, that army is so vibrant, my eyes! I mean, like it or not, that army dose looks very well painted regardless.

Imagine the fit you will pitch on the third time he does it.
Oh nooooooo.
Anyway.

I loved those Elves since the first time I saw them. Love seeing them everytime.
The colour scheme on the elves sure is something to behold!
Another great Batrep. I really like the pacing. Mad respect for the editing.
Thanks for the feedback, there are plenty more on the way!
best battle reports hands down
Fog of War is probably the best scenario
I feel like this is during the era when Elrond got really into Real Housewives of Imladris. That leopard print is a ridiculous paint scheme, but it’s really well done!
I looked at the eleven colour scheme, for about 8 seconds. I am now blind by choice. #upthemoria
Can we get a moria vs gondor sometime bois
Really great battle report !
Love the higher points games !!!
I actually fucking love this rivendell paint scheme.
The elves colour scheme is intresting. Could look cool on some harad or mahud guys that.
Loved this video, really nice to listen to while painting, you've got something good here, keep it up!
Thanks mate! We have a lot more on the way

Pretty impressive you got Harry Potter to come on the channel!
Awesome, really tight game
Thanks for the comment, this one was a lot of fun
I came here to see Rivendell and now I don't want to see anything ever again.
great battle, great video
Thanks for the comment!
I'd sign up for a patreon for sure!
18:23 missed lord of the west re Roll to wound also - and surely he should have wraith as he moved in to dismount the Morgal knights and WK
Also at 31 mins you can use your foresight to reduce goods 6 to a 5
Yeah booooyyyyyzzzzzzz 😎
Those Rivendell Knights are amazing I'm their biggest fan ❤
I’m billing you for my eye surgery after seeing those elves 😂
Eye surgery will be part of his patreon perks.
-Sean
These elfs are very exotic 😅

I love the colour scheme lol!! Genuinely I like it
Fine I'll throw them in the bin.
-Sean
love the colour scheme. Where can I get the terrain as it looks great.
Where did you get the terrain from? (lothlorian trees)
The paint scheme of the Elves reminds me of pictures of the Macedonian Army under Alexander The Great.
The Elves are beautifully painted.....just not exactly the color scheme I would have picked lol
At 13:30, why is Elrohir not winning the fight?
He has fight6 and throws a 6. The other 6 was from a normal soldier with fight 4.
Only if the Whickking spent 2 might he had won, because of his fight10 this turn
Every model in the fight shares the fight value. Because the Witch King had fight 10 all his friendly models in that fight also have it
@@ConquestCreations OMG you are absolutely right 😱 i Just found it in the rulebook.
We played wrong that whole time
I think leopard skin elves look dope.
Can throwing weapons still throw after moving full? I've been playing this wrong.
Yeah, throwing weapons can be used regardless of how much the model has moved, but you still have to take the -1 penalty for moving.
Nice battle report. I like the Fog of War objectives, I'll have to try that in a game some time. I vote yes to Patreon.

@@ryangale3757 oh my fucking god, this is genius.

@@NoobsandMen Bit late for such a revelation, but I look forward to your future half bare coat, half leopard print maximum spite models haha.
Sean I'll be honest when I saw your rivendell tier list I was skeptical on your rankings, but this report confirms elrohir is trash tier!
He's just the bloody worst, hate that I have to take him with elladan.
-Sean
knights look like Alexander the Great and his companion cavalry
I can respect the creativity on those elves... the leopard spotted cloaks and midnight horses are very unique. However yes those are the ugliest elves lol no offense man. The green cloth is too much for me
And this is the exact response I want hahaha.
I love that it's too much for people 🤣🤣
-Sean
WK being transfixed, hell no on the 2 migh to win that fight hehe
wait shouldnt Sean get another point for killing a leader? Or it doesnt count since witch king dissapeared from lack of will? Sorry im a new player and videos help me lern.
Fog of war doesn't give VPs for killing the leader
Well the twin had used one might point to move and one to challenge so wouldn’t be able to use two paints of might to win the fight
Nah the challenge I'd for free as per their rules, once the other brother dies.
it's a free heroic challenge babyyyyyyyy
-Sean
Love Sean flamboyant paint scheme. And morrdor one.
Still not as bad as purple and yellow dwarfs
Elves of Middle Earth in polka dots?
Sean.... too much PIMP MY RIDE back in the days huh? I wouldn't risk to ride with any of these elves coz might be the last ride in my drug free life!
I’d consider Patreon if you have a foot tier like the former Patreon Noobs had
Essa
ridiculous meme color schemes should be reserved for warhammer :-)
"Weirdest colour scheme."
I've seen purple uruk hai. People are just weird.
I hope it's not real leopard skin. Animal rights will be after you.
tbh the orcs look worse than the elves.
