This was a particularly interesting game for me as you featured several characters I've been itching to try. I just finished my Darkstar last night, which completes the Winter Guard, and Rhino and Ulik are on the painting desk batter's box. It was also cool because it reinforced one of the things that sets you apart from so many players out there - You're not always taking the bestest most perfectest most powerfullestest bang bang lists. :) Your emphasize fun, experimentation, and exploration (though still clearly wanting to kick each other into oblivion), and that's a more than welcome bright spot in a landscape seemingly filled with WAAC power gamers (not that there is anything inherently wrong with that approach - it's just not my cup of tea). Anyway, thanks for the report!
Thank you very much! We will always bring fun over meta. We really believe that just because it isn’t best in slot doesn’t mean it isn’t fun. Having Ulik and Rhino with Kingpin really brought out a goon vibe that I enjoyed. I would play both armies anytime, they are that much fun!
I'm a little late to the video, just found your channel, the production quality is excellent! I could totally see you guys jumping up in subs very quickly as the game was quite entertaining, nice work!
Fun game! I liked the initial brief you had at the start. I have been looking at Kingpin, Ulik, & Rhino as a beefy core for criminal syndicate. It was good to see how they played.
Yeah, sometimes you just gotta get them on the table and see how they all work out. It definitely felt like a hired muscle type interaction with those two in kingpin. That kind of made it more fun in itself. We really appreciate this comment!
Hey guys.. lovely game.. I would also like to video my games with my wife, but she's shy.. But really I wanna know... Where'd you get such a nice play-mat.. I have the AMG Outer Space neoprene mat.. but they're always out of stock on the others.. so please, let me know if u have a reputable guy/gal that sells them.. Ok for now.. great game.. love watching y'all.. Later Skater, Jason
Thank you, sir. We got our neoprene mats shortly after we started playing the game a couple years ago. I’m not too sure where we can get any more those at this time. We also use the mats by mars, and we really enjoy using those as well. As far as recording goes, I think the most important thing is just to remember to have fun. If things get too serious, or you get too focused, on one thing or another, it starts to lose its fun. Also, don’t be afraid to make mistakes if you’re videoing the reports. Hell we are super embarrassed about our early bad reports, but they helped us to get to where we are today, not that they’re the best, but we’re very happy with them.
Liking the content. Not sure if you can Advance onto a building from parting shot, as Widow doesn't have Wall Crawler or Flight and Climb requires an action.
I see what you are saying. Rereading through the rulebook Advance and Climb are both movement types; but as the rule book separates them that indicates they are unique types rather than being allowed to be used together. Good call out, thank you!
First off great battle report I enjoy your videos. Secondly I believe you were playing ulik's crushing leap wrong, it does require an action for the superpower
Thank you for the comments. It’s been a while since I played him so I honestly don’t remember what I was thinking or what I did in the game, but I will definitely keep that in mind next time I bring them on the table. I could’ve sworn I only had two actions, because the Leap attack does allow you to attack afterwards. But again it’s been a while so I could be totally wrong. 😁
My completely casual opinion is that this new batch of models has been so good that if I'm not playing at least one of them I feel slightly disadvantaged. I'm sure that's not how it actually is but that's how I feel.
I think I would be disingenuous if I didn’t say that I felt there wasn’t a little power creep coming to the game. Overall, they have done a really great job of balancing everything. However the newer models are breathing, a different and new life to a lot of the older models that make them a lot of fun to play.
@@ozarkgladiators5819 definitely agree. Like I feel like there's power creep but it's not game breaking and dare say it might make things more fun... I did some disgusting things with rhino the other day and ulik seems so good here. I personally want to try winter guard myself with rhino or ulik in it.

Thank you very much. we are a little behind due to vacation and work, but we have some fun new things coming soon!
Great episode guys
Thank you very much for coming back week after week! :)

Thanks once more the content, folks.

Black widow 2 is very underrepresented
She gets way overshadowed by her 2 pt version, but I think she is really good! She was Nikki’s favorite when we first started playing.
