Another battle report is ready!

This time the opponents are SM and BA. I was late and on my arrival and at that my friends almost started the game. I had no other choice but to make photos and wait for opponent. Sorry for pictures quality, I only had a cell phone with me this time.

I added some additional details to photos. I hope you like it.

And again - excuse us for unpainted models! We are working hard to fix this problem!

Nicely edited battle report, dude. Very unique style; I enjoyed it very much. Must have taken you a long time to edit those pics.

Thanks! It took me 3-4 hours to Edit photos and prepare text. However it took me 2 more hours to translate it in English. Due to lack of knowledge of the English I had to drastically reduce the quality of the description.

This was awesome! What a slugfest! Thank you for sharing.

Honestly, your pictures do a great job in story telling. A tad more description would be nice but not totally necessary.

Thanks! I am preparing Battle report of 2vs2 game 3000 pts. per side with tanks mostly. You should like it too

I LOVE IT God I miss mechanization...

Great Bat Rep! I also really love the unique photo reporting. May try and get some bird's eye views if you can? Otherwise great job man!

Outstanding report. Great job

Those inset pictures worked really well
Great report, well done

We are still mechanized here, at least in our local gaming group.

I was trying to experiment with bird's eye view, and i didn't liked it. In fact i have 1 game fully covered with bird's eye photos, but it looks very uninteresting to my taste, especially it will be when we will get fully painted terrain

Thanks! There will be more!

You did a fantastic job of really summarizing the turn crisply, with a unique touch! The good old days of mechanization...But anyways, nice work good sir, well done indeed.

I enjoyed all the nicely edited photos, very cool and clear, easy to tell what is going on. Great that you do have pictures, i get so tired or text battle reports.

Sweet Battle, I liked the details with the arrows and the close-ups

Truly great read with wonderful pics.

1 rules thing that got me. You cannot overwatch with Psy powers. Think it might be in the BGB FAQ, a link is in my Sig
