See and hearing a explanation of the dice roll and strategies and abilities been explained is best. To many battle reports cut away from that part and that's for me 90% of the game. So good job.
Guy does great battle reports. You feel like your getting a good overview of everything that happens and you don't need to sacrifice half your afternoon to watch it
I feel like most battle reports stretch on too long without showing anything of value. These ones and 40k in 40minutes are some really good ones though
@@wiccanthropy1956 Deathguard don't actually have a Start Collecting kit; they'll either have to use parts of the Dark Imperium box side or parts of the Infection Cluster box set (has no HQ). Dark imperium lacks their powerhouse weapons (no blight launcher, no flails),
@@MidwinterMinis btw can you make it so that larger boxes have to trim down on points, otherwise it wont be fair, : a guard fanboi who has only 250 points that will have to go against larger armies btw cadian defense force would be more fair
Nah, i think that would go against the entire point of this series. This is start collecting boxes, not multiple start collecting boxes or most of a start collecting box. Just consider it as highlighting how unfair Games Workshop is in their products. And thematically appropriate that Guard gets roflstomped
The blood splatters were SUCH A GOOD IDEA I can't wait to see the arena become a broken, blood-stained, rubble-strewn mess by the end of the series! ;)
Well since there are only 10 models in the Tyranid box, and Genestealer wargear options are kind of limited, we can be pretty sure they're going to bring it as a Trygon Prime because why not? First opponent is Nurgle demons? If so that's funny, because those are the two start collecting boxes I ended up getting. But if it is against Nurgle, I think the fight will go similar to how it went here, with the Trygon Prime being a bit too much for the Plague Drones, unless they get lucky. Since it takes up a decent chunk of the army, I'd make sure it stays effective by giving it Dermic Symbiosis, rather than giving the Broodlord a Warlord trait. Even without though, the Nurgle box has even less wargear options, and is going to be almost 60 points down. But Genestealers are pretty much too fast to not attack first. I imagine those glass cannons will tear a bunch apart before the Trygon gets to do much...unless Nurglings are placed carefully. Nurglings are hilarious.
Just something I noticed, I loved that after the match you added blood to the terrain where the Khorne demons died so that finally after all the battles this table will be covered in battle scars and blood. Great work Guy
Orks vs Khorne has got to be one of the most fun, screw-the-tactics-let's-fight matchups, and I can't think of anyone better than Dave for such a game. Fantastic start to the series!
Can we all just take a moment to realise that Midwinter Minis, Eric's Hobby Workshop and Miscast all released (what I consider to be) their best videos each of them have ever made all on the same night? We love you Warhammer TH-camrs
@16:15 Penny's "WINK" I'm dying hahaha. Great video, love the short battle report, and this whole concept of showcasing so many (all?) the different factions!
I can’t help but feel like Orks had a big advantage here. Maybe the khorne daemons could have built the blood throne as a skull cannon and a herald of khorne on foot, it would have been more even?
Here's what I think. It looks like they're against the Nurgle box, and demons don't really have much for wargear options. While the Tyranids can get to 500 points, the Nurgle one can only get to like 440. I think they'll probably do what people do with Genestealers and rush them across the board immediately. The glass cannons they are might do some decent damage, depending what they engage, but it's possible for the group of 3 Nurgling models to eat all of the damage and come out with a model still alive. So it really depends what they engage. I think I'd take Extended Carapace with the Genestealers, and play them a bit more slowly because that Nurgle army doesn't really have any shooting. The main goal, I'd say, would be protecting the Trygon Prime as it makes its way up, that thing has a 12 shot weapon which can definitely help output some wounds on the Disgustingly Resilient Nurgle demons. I'd want the Prime to engage at the same time as the rest of the army, rather then be left in the dust and end up the last model standing against a swarm. The Nurgle stuff only has a movement speed of 5, except the Plague Drones, don't see a reason to rush it. I'd also probably buff the prime with Dermic Symbiosis, since its point cost is like 2/5 the army, and it's the most durable thing the Tyranids have at that point. Otherwise I think you're just hoping your damage goes through demonic invul, AND disgusting resilience. But I play both armies, I wouldn't count on getting lucky against that durability. I still think the Nids will win pretty easily on that one. I think it will go largely like this fight here.
@@noamtepper456 not to disparage the utter disgrace that that is, aren't the iron warriors, night lords, word bearers and alpha legion in the same space (i dont see a lot of chaos where I play)
Guy, long day and I opened TH-cam planning to stick something slow and mellow on in the background while I cut out from Ork sprues, but then spotted this in my subscriptions and honestly so happy to have it to watch! Cheers.
Guy you are the best person to watch to learn how to play. Easy to listen too, makes sense about what’s going on. Minis look amazing, and just all around fun.
Finally... Since the day I first looked into 40k, got addicted to your battle reports and watched the entire lot in one go, I have waited for this. I have waited so patiently. And this is glorious. Thank you, thank you a whole damn lot for bringing us all this :)
Man! I love you added the bloodstains on the board after the game...so the battleground will evolve with the blood of the defeated throughout the series. Thoughtful little detail. Great work!
I've been painting for years, but am just now starting to get into gaming. Thank you so much for making such concise, easy to follow and fun battle reports. I'm not much less nervous about playing my first game 😀
This is such a great freaking idea. This might finally convince some of my friends to give the game a try with some low Start collecting investment. Right now they thought having a fun game was only possible at at least 1000 or 2000 points, hope thise changes their mind
Wohoo! I just bought my start collecting t'au box and i'm waiting to willing myself enough to start painting it....but reading the manual and binge-watching battle reports around for roughly two years i believe they are strong contestant for the win!
Only if the crisis suites are built with the weopons in mind. The fire warriors are gonna drop. Due to the small map melee is gonna happen and tau gonna die. I'm a tau player and I know what the sad truth is...
I really enjoy the fact you got to do this combined battle report with the massively enthusiastic Dave from Mini Wargaming, those guys are probably my favourite table top gaming online mixed gaming groups. Great work Guy, Dave and Penny!!
2 things. 1) The theme song for this series is banging. So good. And 2) I love how after the game has ended, you've put blood where all the fighting took place. Looking forward to seeing how covered that board is going to be, come the final.
Great idea Made all that much better by a flawless presentation. Only one thing can possibly make this better: a UFC style “let’s get ready to rrrrrruuuuuuuuuuummmmmmbleeee!” And it should be Ant shouting this at the top of his lungs...
"using starter kits units to find out how good the kits are" *turns nob into warboss*...GG lol. GW could swap the painboy for a HQ to make them playable.
To be fair that's what everyone suggests you do with it so u can play. I remember when orcs didn't even have vehicle kits u were just expected to convert all of them... So it's in keeping with their kitbash spirit tbh
@@cromcraft3494 it would be cool if gw had a more sandboxy approach to their character models. Instead of a monopose character with an alternate head at best, they should make them more customizable out the box, similar to the old SM Captain kit
Looks like they're replacing start collecting with combat patrols. Wonder which ork HQ they'll include. Yup, a stand alone warboss kit with options is what the ork community wants.
Love how you were able to make a Warboss out of the Boss Nob. It's what I enjoy about Orks, you can convert so much of their models into other units so easily.
Hey Guy! I think it would be great if you did some Gorkamorka stuff. The models are great and ramshackle, the rules are wacky and it's great fun! I've been looking into the rules, and while it is complicated, it's very rewarding to play.
I alerted my housemate with a high pitched "DAVE" squeal, I was a huge MWG fan back in the day but started to lose interest with the numerous hosts... only occasionally popping up recently with the hosts I gelled better with.

Astra Militarum is going to get wrecked. They have the worst start collecting box. Maybe you guys should give them 2 since the SC has such low point values.
well, they could go tank ace tank commander and backfield hold the obj with it (Punisher cannon or battle cannon for most effect I reckon) . Then build the troops as standard with a heavy weapons team (Maybe Auto cannon as it's effective against most things) and bog down the mid field with them supported by the Commisar. It's not much but it could work, specially with the tank ace ordering itself every turn, plus you can give it triple Las cannons or heavy bolters depending on the situation
@@andrewofarkansas2121 they aint, they going against Slaanesh daemons. SO they probably lose considering the speed and the amount of attacks Slaanesh units get.
I don't play/collect Warhammer or know the rules, nor do I generally watch battle reports for any games, I'm usually just here for the painting tips. But somehow I find myself here, watching and enjoying this. I think it's the snappy presentation, camera work, and lively narration. Great stuff! Also, super glad to have Penny in a video again, even as briefly as she speaks here. Her cheeky comments and animated personality are a real boon to your already great vids!
Best battle report I’ve seen! Can’t think of a better series to get people into the hobby! I will definitely be sending this around to some friends I’ve been trying to convert!
Calling finals early *CSM* vs *VSM* Those kits have some insane value. The two obliterators + venom crawler are going to run amok on the anti-infinity units most starting kits have.
@@janp5063 As a big CSM guy, I was heavily disappointed. Keeping the Crawler at the back instead of moving it up to take fire? (He didn't keep his orc machine back in this battle report) Forgetting about Hateful assault for the extra attacks? Not using a single stratagem other than re-roll? Not deepstriking the obliterators. Hell, not even giving them a mark of slaanesh and using Endless Cacophony. That's their bread n butter! Not to mention the split charges by the greater possessed. Oof. It does make me worried other start collecting boxes will suffer the same fate.
@@bryal7811 Also Venomcrawler, MoP and Greater Possessd need to walk together. The GP buffs also the shooting of the Venomcrawler and the MoP gives him some rerolls.
This is BEYOND awesome! Insanely well-made! I can’t wait for the rest of this series!! Adding blood into your epic arena at the end where things had died was such an awesome extra little touch.
I appreciate all of this, it's awesome.. only thing I can say, having 1 straight line of sight down the middle across all objectives is.. questionable. Still all of the rule changes make it kind hard to guess who will do the best, shooty armys probably will get over run. My guess is DeathGuard in the finals! oh... wait xD

@@coalitionofrob436 All the daemon boxes and the imperial guard box are the first ones that come to mind. I love the series concept but it's kinda unbalanced when CSM genuinely have a 700pt box. I feel like it should be "make a 500pt army focused around a sc box"
@@danza71 Yeah you may have a point there! Quite a few SC boxes would have a tough time dealing with that for sure. The daemon boxes on the other hand...not so much
Gods, your battle reports are the best on the platform. Awesome to see Dave from MWG, that was a great video!! I love the little blood stains from where units died, that's super clever. I'm hella looking forward to the rest of this! :D
What an awesome game! Absolutely love this tournament idea and can not wait to see how it plays out! Bring on the next video!!! 😁 Such an amazing gesture by Dave, and such a worthy cause!
I love the idea of this tournament! There are some armies that will be so much more powerful than others, so it'll be interesting to see how it goes. :) I will say that the Daemons had no real chance here with their terrible saves, fewer models, and no shooting. Plus, the trait for the Orks was so strong! Sadness. Can't wait for the next one! Finally, it is great that you are compensating for the guest's time and no surprise that Dave donated his. Such an awesome guy!

I can't wait until the Tyrannids one because there's like 9 models in the box

so sad that that comment is wrong because they are going to kill everything (they don't have the lowest points I made a speed sheet with point values)
A series I have always wanted thanks for making a dream come true also very excited to see the tau on this channel
You should add parts from defeated army’s to the board as terrain
I don't play/collect Warhammer or know the rules, nor do I generally watch battle reports for any games, I'm usually just here for the painting tips. But somehow I find myself here, watching and enjoying this. I think it's the snappy presentation, camera work, and lively narration. Great stuff! Also, super glad to have Penny in a video again, even as briefly as she speaks here. Her cheeky comments and animated personality are a real boon to your already great vids!
Finally! Bring it on Guy!
Best battle report I’ve seen! Can’t think of a better series to get people into the hobby! I will definitely be sending this around to some friends I’ve been trying to convert!
Calling finals early *CSM* vs *VSM* Those kits have some insane value. The two obliterators + venom crawler are going to run amok on the anti-infinity units most starting kits have.
Agreed, almost certainly going to come down to those two simply due to the sheer amount of stuff in each box.
yeah, that CSM lads are pretty damn scary
And they lost the first round vs Eldar ^^.
But you cant really play Chaos worst then Winter did.
@@janp5063 As a big CSM guy, I was heavily disappointed. Keeping the Crawler at the back instead of moving it up to take fire? (He didn't keep his orc machine back in this battle report) Forgetting about Hateful assault for the extra attacks? Not using a single stratagem other than re-roll? Not deepstriking the obliterators. Hell, not even giving them a mark of slaanesh and using Endless Cacophony. That's their bread n butter! Not to mention the split charges by the greater possessed. Oof.
It does make me worried other start collecting boxes will suffer the same fate.
@@bryal7811 Also Venomcrawler, MoP and Greater Possessd need to walk together.
The GP buffs also the shooting of the Venomcrawler and the MoP gives him some rerolls.
This is BEYOND awesome! Insanely well-made! I can’t wait for the rest of this series!! Adding blood into your epic arena at the end where things had died was such an awesome extra little touch.
Normies: Avengers Endgame is the most ambitious crossover event in history
Me: Guy vs Dave
mwg dave brings back so many childhood memories
I appreciate all of this, it's awesome.. only thing I can say, having 1 straight line of sight down the middle across all objectives is.. questionable. Still all of the rule changes make it kind hard to guess who will do the best, shooty armys probably will get over run. My guess is DeathGuard in the finals! oh... wait xD
Very nice to see your painted mini's in action! I love the short battlereport, looking forward to more
2:40 -- "Armies can still be victorious, even if they have been completely destroyed."
* blinks in Lucius Aemilius Paullus and Gaius Terentius Varro *
[agitated Roman noises]
16:15 -- You behave Penny the Davetar!
Dave!! miniwargaming are the OGs. Also, the added blood at the end was such a cool idea! I can't wait to see how the arena will look by the end of the series
I bought Craftworld set. Can't wait for their turn. Beatifull Glass cannons
Wonderful!! This is what I was waiting for! Cant wait for the next episode! Good luck!
I do feel bad for the armies with crappy 250pt start collecting boxes :(
Which ones are those?
@@coalitionofrob436 All the daemon boxes and the imperial guard box are the first ones that come to mind. I love the series concept but it's kinda unbalanced when CSM genuinely have a 700pt box. I feel like it should be "make a 500pt army focused around a sc box"
@@tomhughes1055 I think a leman russ with 2+ save from the tank ace and sponson multi meltas with the new rules (for example) might do alright!!
@@danza71 Yeah you may have a point there! Quite a few SC boxes would have a tough time dealing with that for sure. The daemon boxes on the other hand...not so much
@@tomhughes1055 The Nurgle Demon one has 440 if you include instruments and banners, I think.
Gods, your battle reports are the best on the platform. Awesome to see Dave from MWG, that was a great video!! I love the little blood stains from where units died, that's super clever. I'm hella looking forward to the rest of this! :D
Opening music, Ork and Khorne Daemons theme? Could there be a second album coming?
Maayybeeee?
What an awesome game! Absolutely love this tournament idea and can not wait to see how it plays out! Bring on the next video!!! 😁
Such an amazing gesture by Dave, and such a worthy cause!
First!
Edit: love you guy, keep up the awesome videos :D
This is heresy
Edit: you clearly used the warp
Woah!
congrats man.
proud of you
Hold up. How?!?
I love the custom board! It makes me picture 'downed' models trudging to the sidelines and jeering their mates onward like a football match.
I’m stoked for the Chaos obliterators to fleshmetal blast their way to victory in the finals. Ave dominus nox!
Noo don't say that, I'm playing them!
This video AND your video uploading tonight? You guys are all just too wonderful
Damn I'm so excited for all the other battle reports and excited to see who else you get on the channel!
I ported this map for TTS, search for Midwinter Minis
Great job!
@@MidwinterMinis you noticed 😳😳😳😳
I love the idea of this tournament! There are some armies that will be so much more powerful than others, so it'll be interesting to see how it goes. :)
I will say that the Daemons had no real chance here with their terrible saves, fewer models, and no shooting. Plus, the trait for the Orks was so strong! Sadness.
Can't wait for the next one!
Finally, it is great that you are compensating for the guest's time and no surprise that Dave donated his. Such an awesome guy!
I need this music please!
It is in the description i think
this video was bloody brilliant guy, i think this has to be one of your best videos so far. I have high hopes for future battles and that nurgle stops getting in the way.
I'm so glad your doing more battle reports! Yours are always so good!
I love the board, I love the idea, and I love the paint on those demons.
Can't wait for more of this.
