    What a great moment and victory for the Guard ! Here you could see why I personally love the Guard so much, they fought an overwhelming force
    and claimed victory with a single brave Guardsmen !
    An Epic Battle with two great looking Armys and a thematic detailed battlefield, I liked the abbonded Heavy Bolter Position in the creater (?) a lot .
    The Patreons on the Guardforces makes it really exiting to see what is going on with them like the heroic Master Sergeant with the Banner who gets wounded and healed to carry on the banner, I would recommend to usw Sergeant Kells rules to represent him for the future, he deserves it.

    @rquer7913 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Nice battrep, thank you very much!
    If I may make a couple a suggestions: For repeating psychic powers in the same fase I would implement the rule as in Smithe: each consecutive use after the first in the same psychic fase rises the difficulty in one. And the other: I would suggest to have X Command points per turn (e.g. 6), instead a pool of 30, in order to avoid the re-rolling party in the first turn.
    The other thing I thought was when you used the regeneration stratagem tree times in the same turn... which might have been too much. Maybe, beside the ones in the core book, the same stratagem only possible once per unit and fase?
    Minor comments, however. The setup was splendid, and I've enjoyed a lot the battrep.
    Cheers!

    @SirPrzecinek 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know I'm late to the party. It was a great game but not even close in my opinion. There is a good reason it didn't continue for one more turn, that being there wouldn't be a single guardsman left on the table. I called that this would happen after seeing the first round of guard shooting, but the game was cut short. I used to play imperial guard years ago - they have been a low tier army when I quit and they continue to be a low tier army now from what I see. Also there was quite a lot of really pointless units in that guard list like the tank destroyer or the baneblade. Imagine the amount of heavy bolters and mortars that could be added for their point cost and the damage they could do. Very nicely done video. I will have to watch a lot of stuff on this channel as I'm again interested in wh40k. Maybe I'll be back at the table some time with a proper army instead of the guard this time.
