you should definitely try out a tyranids vs necrons 40K in 40 minutes Warhammer battle

I love Nick's infectious energy in this video. It was clear James was getting frustrated / disheartened by the first 2-3 rounds and wanted to throw in the towel , but with Nick going out of his way to celebrate his own tank blowing up and offering James a high five it seemed to completely turn James around into having a good time. That's what this game & hobby is all about, and if I am able to ever play a actual in person game I hope its in a welcoming setting like this. Keep up the great work guys :)

I've played it in a couple games, found it to be very swingy. Opponents with strong anti armour chew it up, but if it gets to their lines it's devastating.

"We're not good at this game, or at least throwing dice anyways" feel that

Haven't watched it yet, but I can already tell Nick doesn't have enough anti-tank. This edition has done our tanks dirty 😂

Bruh, I got news that a year long plan has been a success and can come into operation tommorow, and this is the most wholesome bit of my day

Man that army intro for the Guard really hit me. They're so striking in all the black and gas masks, especially the rough riders. Beautiful but menacing.

I lowkey love this game for all the "well that's how tabletop works" Orks not hitting anything at the beginning Guardsmen killing so much of the Dakka boys All of the big machines of the orks didn't made as *much* damage as they could in-lore It was so fun and heartwarming seeing Nick lifting James spirits but Emperor damm was fun to imagine this playing out like a completely insane lore story

As one ork player to another ork player. Love you James, lowkey thinking of picking up a stompa has a passion paint

Yeah, they got me back in and I last played in 2nd when I was a kid. It's been super fun so far.

I love it when the knocker’s slobber 11/10

The guard seemed to have it, but the Orks kept that fighting spirit up and played (surprisingly)smart taking objectives. When the reinforcements arrived the rubble slowed them, but their hearts were still in the fight.... until they saw the last initial defenders die on the far objectives and a giant towering stompa to their right. Their charges, and hearts falter. The surprise fails and the men see the commanding control the orks have over the battlefield and run. Excellent play, glad he stuck it outside the abysmal start, but a few lucky moves(And unlucky ones from his opponent) and objective play earns him the last second turn around.

love to see a stompa come in clutch against the odds like that

Reinforcements rushing in: CHARGE! Dice: NO. Narration: The harried, panting Imperials gazed up at the smoking, sparking behemoth of steel and realized they were too late. It was not by much, but it was enough.

Love it! Felt perfectly narrative to me. Imagine arriving late, seeing the death and carnage ahead of you, fallen commanders and tanks, with the looming stompa still fully operational... Time for a tactical retreat into the walls!

I think the Kriegers forgot to apply the sacred oils to their weapons, those damage rolls were something

So this channel got me to make the jump from Killteam to full 40k. Sorry, Nick, but I went ork, and I love them! Also, my favorite part of this entire video is the error pop-up on nicks backdrop lol

May be a bit of a long shot, but for the next combat patrol video could you do admech vs. Drukari, my friend is try to learn this edition and seeing people with much more knowledge than us play our matchup would help him a ton. Love you videos have a great day

its always fun to see how bad a stompa is

My favorite part of this video was the computer prompting an update behind Nick at 43:22, someone call the AdMech!

Love the back round "dice tells stories " had to buy the shirt

the "please no more kicking" reference was gold

holy guacamoly, what a fantastic 5th round

Nick is hilarious would love to see more of him on the show

Wow. Amazing come back. I can't help feeling too much shooting was put into the Stompa without enough to kill it - that could have made more of a difference on the smaller units taking all the objectives at the end. Great game.

What a comeback for James! Really thought that nick had it in the bag for most of the game, and what a awesome game it was!

I've never seen a game be so exciting yet nothing happens.

DUDES!!!! That's gotta be the gnarliest comeback I've yet seen

this cannel is quickly becomming my favorite battle report channel :D

Honestly I love militarums vehicles more than the army itself. That said Orks are my second favorite just because they strap shootas to anything.

It's always a joy to see Mr. Initiative bring his Orks :D I'm excited to see how this battle shakes out
