Beautiful armies! Really enhances the battle report. Fantastic!
Smashing game. Literally every unit played a crucial role at some point or another!
Yeah everything was getting stuck in
I recognise those Alpha legion fellas! Gorgeous armies and a great battle report! :D
beautiful armies,beautiful game as always!
That was great guys, really enjoyed it
Glad to hear it!
Really nice report, lovely armies and looked fun, some cinematic moments also. Main rules things have already been covered, but the banestrike shotguns were the main one, they were played at 2 shot S5, breaching 5+, concussive whereas they're actually S4, Breaching 6+ shred, so actually pretty decent at ripping chunks out of a primarch. You also can't fire the wail and shotguns at the same time, so pick 2 models to wail with, and use the shotguns for the rest.
Awesome game guys! I think there was one small mistake, I can't tell if the Vigilator had joined the unit of Recon Marines or if he was seperate. If he had joined them they actually do not get the benefits of Skirmish, since he himself does not have it, at least I assumed that was why the cover was 4+ instead of 5+. I ran into the same thing, it's weird since it seems like he would fit perfectly with a squad of snipers!
Chris you absolute legend! Love the Batrep lads!
Cheers 🍻
Cheers boo!
Beautifully armys and video looks great
Thank you very much!
Glad to see a battle report out of you guys!
That was a really swingy game. I thought a side was knocked out 3 or 4 times.
You guys are great. Just watched 1:40 and that's the best sportsmanship for fun I've ever seen in a battle report.
Cheers mate. Was a great game and always love when it can go either way
Perfect for tomorrows painting sesh
Enjoy bud and hobby hard!
Two amazing looking armies, fantastic report, your camera work might need work, but the battle was well delivered , I was glued Tom the screen the whole battle!
Thank you.
What way does the camera work need to improve. We always are looking at ways to make our reports better
@@RiftForgeStudio nothing major, there were a few moments where you missed dice rolls because the camera was too high/low no biggy, and a few occasions you panned to/from the dice tray to action to fast , which blurred the shot and missed things as you were speaking. Nothing terrible, not helped by the fact I'm sensitive to fast motion... 🤪
We will work on it. It's difficult doing two things at once 🤣.
@@RiftForgeStudio totally get it ! 😜 You Dona fantastic job as it is! Looking forward to more !
let's go! happy to see alpha legion going up against Blood Angels
The blue Vs red is very nice on the tabletop
@@RiftForgeStudio Couldn't agree with you more! I hope to see more of it with either these guys or from other armies
amazing game
Great report, guys! Love the paint on the armies!
On the Effrit unit, two bits:
-What rule are you seeing that allows them to fire both the Hydra's Wail AND their shotguns? It's listed as a weapon - wouldn't they need Firing Protocols to fire both? (One or two could just fire the Wail, and the others the shotguns - that seems to be the intent.)
-The banestrike shotguns are Breaching (6+), and have Shred. So may have been a misreading of that profile.
Again, thanks for the report!
Ooo also, just want to say that scenario seemed AWESOME. Love the progressive scoring, and it made for an extremely dynamic game!
Good points on the Effrit. Will have to have a read of them.
The mission was loads of fun Chris did a great job writing it. Loved to fact you could lose your points as well. Made it a tense game. (Sean)
Really good comment about the Firing Protocols. My apologies to Sean and all viewers. As it happens, they didn’t do a great deal anyway!
@@chrisgibson2774 Just pointed it out moreso for your reference (it's a complicated game - I miss rules all the time). You were awesome to watch on the stream! Hope you show up in more videos!
Top tier game, as usual ;)
Cheers mate
The dark knights of HH thanks lads
Haha cheers
Awesome Blood Angels
Thank you. Recently added you weathering and a new base scheme to them and really happy how they have turned out
Great game and beautiful armies!!! Was a pleasure to watch. Will definately look out for more. :D
Thank you. More on their way soon
Welcome back
Cheers. Happy new year and all that 🙂
Two beautiful armies! Do you mind sharing the paints used for Sanguinius’ golden armour?
Thank you. The golds used were from the scale 75 gold set.
Awesome armies both. If you can say, what model or models were used to make the librarian from the blood angels
Thanks. The librarian was made from the new praetor in the Horus box set and converted using sanguinary guard bits and zephons head
Thank you very much.
Sanguinius can’t use the advanced reaction as far as I know as he isn’t an infantry unit. A great batrep though. Really enjoyed watching.
Oooo I didn't know that. Changes a few things going forward. Cheers for watching and glad you enjoyed it
He can't use it because he is fearless.
Really enjoying this Bat-Rep. Curious, has the rules for the Effrit Cadre shotguns changed? I can't find it in the FAQ, but you'd forgotten Shred, and it was Breaching (6). Or am I missing something? lol
Looking into Alpha Legion to try something completely different than I usually do, so I'm becoming very interested in the Alpha Legion units and rules, all that misdirection etc. etc. 😁😅
Good game, just curious as to why the Deredeos were acting as one unit? Like contemptors they only deploy as a Talon then act independently after the game begins.
Cheers mate. We just made a mistake. No other reason than that. One to watch out for in the future
Are predators really reinforced subtype? I thought that was land raiders?
No they are not. That was my mistake. I was getting confused with vindicators
the command squad with sanguinius cant take jumpacks because sanguinius does not have one... most people use the ofanim court
Boooo. Seems pretty silly really
Where's the rule that states that? Cause I can't seem to find it
Hi there. Excellent game guys. Sorry I don't get the scoring. Is it 15 BA or 15 AL?
15 for the AL
I don’t think biomancy buff extends into the opponents turn
Good spot! Will note that down for future games :)
These look great, how were the AL painted?
Thank you. Chris was a guest on so we can't comment on how he achieved his scheme. I've added his Instagram handle below so you can check more of his stuff out there
What sort of paint on those AL models? It really pops whatever it is.
They are Chris’s models. Search for ‘theunbrokenchain’ on Instagram and he should be able to help :)
Hey buddy! Sorry, I’ve only just seen this comment, as I returned to share the video! It’s Tamiya’s clear blue over a silver preshade. Then just use a shot of Coellia Greenshade to matte down and give a little green tinge
@@chrisgibson2774 No worries, glad to find out; those are probably the best looking Alpha Legion models I've ever seen.
11:35 you can't take damage mitigation rolls before armor saves p. 173 & 174
You're right. Although in this instance it didn't make any difference as all rolls were made and there wasn't any tanking on artificer armour or anything like that
@@RiftForgeStudio Indeed. Really cool battle report! I enjoy watching your videos and hope for more content
Tank shock xD
It's awesome! 🤣🤣
I have now rewatched this a few times. (Obviously enjoy it) And still don't get how what feels like a majority of the AL seems to have bs5. Anyone care to enlighten me?
A fair few of the units were head hunters if I remember correctly. Which all have bs5 and then with the dreadnoughts all having bs5.
@@RiftForgeStudio thanks, that would indeed make sense.
What's a efrit ? Who attacked the dawn cohort
Effrit Disruption Cadre came out as an ‘Exemplary Battles’ unit for the Alpha Legion in November. They’re a fun little unit which I’m still learning how best to make work!
@@chrisgibson2774 so a pdf unit? When I TH-cam the name u listed nothing comes up
Crazy how your ownnalpha legion destroyed your new blood angel army...we are alpharius 😊 alpha legion doesnt like when they are abadonded
When u use Miss mash dice I always see people role bad. ALways use 1 color for the dice u roll. I know it's superstition but I've seen it too often occur
Haha I don't tend to worry. May try to keep them matched in the future to help out
It's odd to see the creator of channel playing a non alpha legion list o.O
Love this hannel because he's a dedicated alpha legion player like myself and we all get to see how his army evolves overtime
Do u use discord or anything would love to discuss army building . Im new to playing but I have over 15k in points army wise since I build , convert amd paint prior to playing but I only built 30k alpha legion
We don't currently have a discord but it is something we are discussing
