The quality is unbelievable--I liked the Norn Emissary before, but Fletcher just took that sculpt to a whole new level with his painting

The lore-accurate battle report we all needed.

It’s called a cage and chains. Sanga only just escaped from his cage through cunning.

I maintain that the only reason poor Bard rolls 1's all the time is because the dice don't have a 0.

It’s almost makes me angry how bad he’s rolling, I can’t imagine what he has done in his past to upset the dice gods..

Somewhere among the stars, there is a factory where they make giant berets for ogryns.

Reject the meta, embrace the guard

Those baneblade rolls were worthy of slinging the dice in the bin!

This battle is basically what I dream of playing in the future with my tyranids, simply amazing!!!

It's crazy to think about, I feel like some of the other channel have the same airbrush looks to 'em (to be fair, it's not ton of time to paint lot of models (and in this case, also few big ones), then we have Fletcher with HQ quality paintjob on every single models, seriously impressive, can't wait to watch this.

I somehow expected Captian Titus and some Ultra Marines to crash into the battleground to give the Imperials Hope and Courage ^^ Damn good Battle Report! Love the Tyranids and have big respect for the Guardsmen! ^^

Geez guys. Now *this* is Warhammer ! It's so refreshing seing such an awesome board, setup and cool rules. I'm kinda sick of the standard terrain setup that always has the same layout. But this ... this is the kind of stuff that gets people excited about Warhammer. Sweet boiling Christ I am so here for it.

I really love this more relaxed version of battle reports. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE play on tabletop's videos, but sometimes they're too high energy for me. These one's where they're both obviously having fun but aren't super over the top are perfect for me to just chill and paint some mini's along with. Except for the Headphone check it the beginning. That was unpleasant lol.

Super excited to watch this in full! Have already a guard army and in the midst of building my Tyranids so I'm looking forward to learning how to play both in this new edition :)

James rolling terribly in the Guards first shooting phase is just so very Guard (and so very James) 😆

Tally Ho!! Pip Pip! - Bard

Isn't it a little concerning that Tyranids are better shots than Guard or Tau? And have both some solid big guns as well as mass firepower. I mean, fast, good in combat, hordes as well as resilient monsters, sure - but that PLUS being more accurate than armies who primarily shoot?

3000 points monster match? Count me in! This is what Saturday mornings are for! :D

Brilliant batrep. Real testament to the power of house ruling scenarios to make a memorable scenic battle. Kudos to Fletcher's beautiful paintjobs too.

The Thunder Child reference is such a deep cut, I love it!!

I'm jealous of the insane paint jobs all of your miniatures have, I swear xD

What a fun game to watch. These two have so much chemistry. Makes it exciting to watch! Thanks for the super fluffy batrep

I would love to see a narrative campaign of guardsman vs tyranids, featuring our favourite inquisitor from the last one too! Can Inquisitor Heidegger rally the guard forces and banish the Tyranids back to the void? Or will he finally meet his end in the emperor's service?

Great Epic battle! Poor Bard had some terrible luck with the dice.

To paraphrase Terminator, "That Norn Emissary is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear, and it absolutely will not stop, ever, until Colonel Crow is dead..."

Love the epic look of all the Killy stuff on the table at once, sooooo cool. The Nids colour scheme blows me away every time I see it. How good does the Norn Emissary look…..👌🤘

Loved the thunderchild reference

The narrative nature of this match is phenomenal! :D

Amazing batrep guys! Me and my two boys put it on the main tv in the lounge and watched it like a movie! What a great morning! :) fletcher is a god! :)

Fletcher smashing it out of the park again.

Both armies are painted beautifully!

That was excellent!! Absolutely loved it!

Thanks for this content having a tough time with some teeth pain this will occupy the hive mind!

Had to hold off on starting the video to put my order in for an Emissary and a Neurolictor. Will be nice to bring my old Tyranid army up to date with some cool new models after about 12 years in storage. Loving the look of all the new Tyranids (you guys have them painted amazingly!) hope they play as good as they look. :D

This was literally the first video I clicked with my new headphones and it goes off with a headphone warning. 😂 Great slaughter!!

This battle report was fantastic. The narrative was great and it really felt like an 80s action movie! I am liking the new Tyranids and have put in my order for some new vanguard goodness. They feel like they have got the balance about right for the new stuff being very good but without them being a ludicrous band wagon. I'm looking forward to seeing some other detachments of the 'nids and the rematch when the guard get their codex.

That was just, really good fun. Thank you

Top quality work by Fletcher with those dark, brooding, hungry bugs.

Gorgeous paint job, Hats off

@katie, your narration is improving significantly. I appreciate the effort

Man... Fletcher sure paints AWESOME! Thats some beautiful Tyranids army there, amazing work there.

incredible game! Its gotta be said, not only is Fletcher able to make these bugs look just... amazing, its astonishing thats he's able to do it so quickly. My god.

Amazing battle report, Guard vs Nids is definetly the coolest 40k matchup

I've only just started watching the game, I already know it's going to be good. But can we just take a moment to applaud Fletcher for the paint job on those Tyrannids - they look absolutely amazing.

Making a mental note that the new tyranids are terrifying. Great thematic game!

I love astra militarum versus tyranids it reminds me of colonial marines versus xenomorphs or starship troopers versus arachnids. That whole alien terror that drags you away into the vents fighting the marines shouting, "LET'S ROCK!" kind of vibe. 😅

Always a great day when tabletop upload :D

This looks great, I want to develop a solo play mode where a player basically has to fight off waves of tyranids following a card based AI system that become more and more difficult every wave with the goal of surviving as many waves as possible as the tyranids they face get larger and larger. There is no victory, there is only valour and death.

aww bard your dice rolls make all us guard players feel pain

love you guys posting this, hate i'm in America and need to go to bed to get my preorder in before the scalpers get them all lol i'll have to finish watching this some time soon tho

1:17:00 If the Baneblade's on four wounds it's definitely bracketed and should be hitting on 5s...

Turn 4, me screaming "Overwatch the Emissary. OVERWATCH THE EMISSARY!!"

One day, when that lottery win gets here this is the table and types of battle I dream of doing. Thanks as ever for these. That emissary looks amazing.

My god that paint job on the Emissary is insane

Great Game! Fun and engaging.

Really cool battle! Would love to see more like these, but would also like to see a little more balance. I think the match wouldve been even more interesting if guard couldve deployed back a little further, or at least had some tank orders (this battle showed how poor guard tank shooting is without them). And holy moly that tyranid paint job!

If you charged with lance weapons its +1 to wound so you would have wounded warriors on 2s at 35:32

13:04 And here I thought the game was supposed to get less deadly. :P

My God when nids totally eclipse guard shooting its a fizzer for sure 😅

What a game, it hurt my soul every time the baneblade shot. For how expensive they are(both in money and points) they're just so bad. That said, its always nice seeing one in play cause theyre so friggin cool. Always nice seeing the guard at play. :D

Great Bat Rep, several things. 1 Jink has grown on me, I did not like her at first, but now I can't imagine TT without her. 2. Is GW using the same covers from the last edition's codecs? 3. Do you think this will make Nids better than Eldar?

@tabletoptactics

10 ай бұрын

I’ll weigh in, looks like the same cover as last edition yes. Also, I think Eldar need a few other fundamental fixes to help balance them out, but Nids should be able to compete now for sure. I would expect a balance update soon to probably address most things and help even it out :) 🕷️

Every Tyranid army needs a unit called Terry, mine is the first Termagant I ever painted

Great paint jobs

Love the new color scheme~

Subscribed Also I literally traded in all of my Orks and Necrons for Guard, other than that I main Tyranids, so i just HAD to watch this video lol! Awesome work guys!

Amazing batrep as always team! I absolutely love these narrative focused ones! But please for love of my ears, warning before the screes in-game (very much appreciated the warning in the list)!

Throw away those dice man! Lol
