Sorry all the video wouldn't load right, so I just added a link to the youtube page. I'll try to get that fixed tonight.

Once again another fantastic batrep.

- I'd definitely keep putting the music in these as it helps hold peoples attention during any silent parts.
- LOL at the slow frame "that guy"
- Fortune, Doom, Guide > any book powers (a lesson I have finally come toe terms with)
- I'm sure others have mentioned, but worth noting: you can't charge when coming in from reserves anymore.
- Also worth noting you don't get a +1 attack on the charge when you multi-assault now. There was a lot of dmg from the multi-assaults so not sure if that was being taken into account.

Keep up the great batreps

Thanks BlueDagger.

-Will do. Is this generic background music good for this, or is there anything else you think would be better?
-We all know a guy like "that guy"
-I do love my dex powers, but some of the new ones are great too. Thanks why I have been taking both seers in order to gain the benefit of both. It's been working out well, but it is expensive and in this game most of my powers got shut down anyway.
-You are right, some have mentioned and we did play this wrong. We were under the assumption that the changes to charging from reserve were limited to specialized reserve (outflank, deepstrike), but after being corrected we saw that it was for every kind of reserved unit.
-You are right that there is a bit of a nerf to multi-assault and we were not forgetting it, but with doom and hammer of wrath the damage was still being done. People are complaining a lot about the knock to multi-assault, but I have still found it to be useful. Although, in this instance it may have been better to focus down one grey hunter squad at a time.

Thanks for the feedback. Keep it up, we are all trying to improve our game with these new rules and this sort of thing helps out.

Quick Question:


How were you able to assault when your seer council came in from reserve? I thought everything lost that ability... or do eldar have some magicky voodoo that still lets it happen


Thanks for another fantastic battle report!

They played it wrong as they admitted. Only models with special rules that say they can assault when arriving from reserves can.

On the music SoA, I'd go wit hthe very subtle music you used in your previous batrep. It was quiet enough to not distract, but loud enough to flush out white noise.

Hey just wanna say I really enjoy these bat reps. It's a really good format.

Hey all, thanks for the positive feedback. Quick question; we have been getting a lot of comments about whether or not to have music in the vids and would like to know what you think? This one we didn't have any, and in others we have had some. People seem to like it different ways.
Some people tend to like the music because it overwhelms any silence and white noise, and other people like to listen to their own music while watching and so they don't like having it in the background because it messes up what they are listening to.
Any thoughts from people? We are trying to improve how we produce these and are would like to make it the best for everyone. Thanks.

+1 for music.

It's nice for us that aren't listening to music and for those that are it isn't hard to pause their music for 10 mins

Another +1 to music from me
As said on the site, epic battles need epic music! ;D

Great batrep, as expected Keep up the good work!

Very ace battle report with some nifty camera work...I must say that is the best format of all video reports out there...Thanks for the hard work...much appreciated...

Great work guys. Your presentation is one of the most refreshing I've seen for a long time. Solid camera work, good narration, and some good looking armies to boot.

As for the music. Something soft (background) might satisfy those with a.d.d. , but i personally like the no music, clear and to the point effect of not having any.

Keep it up.

Superb.

another good batrep !

Another great bat rep cheers
