This was a quick video from my phone that shows the size of table and the general chaos that surrounds a big game of this size .
We had a 12 vs. 12 mega battle using standard force org chart rules, 24,000 points per side Xeno Versus Imperium (1 IG traitor on the xeno side) at our local store.
5 objectives, each objective conferred bonuses such as orbital bombardment or teleportation if held by one side or the other.
It was insane fun and it lasted about 7 1/2 hours with a lunch break in between . Xeno side took it in the end and there was a warmaster crowned for most kill points (with a very cool sword trophy).
here is a short video.

Honestly I think the video is a bit of a mess. Because of the size of the camera and how it keeps moving, all I see is a crowd of people standing over a warhammer table all talking at once. It is very difficult to make out what's happening or to get a good look at the models.

It's not that people don't appreciate you sharing, it's just not a battle report but rather a 2.5 minute video of a persons point of view of whats going on in a mid battle.
If it was a video introducing players/showing their armies/what they have it would have been a bit more engaging.
As it stand though, your thread title says more than the video does.
No photo of said trophy, no picture of winning team, etc.

Sorry dude, but you have to have a tough skin when posting ANYTHING here. There is no shortage of internet tough guys and just plain "haters" that are so unhappy with their own lives, they feel that they must bring everyone else down with them. Thanks for posting the vid, looking forward to more videos in the future. Later.

It is the 3rd Millennium. For more than a hundred months Games Workshop has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Nottingham. It is the foremost of wargames by the will of the neckbeards, and master of a million tabletops by the might of their inexhaustible wallets. It is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with business strategies from the early Industrial Revolution Age. It is the Carrion Lord of the wargaming scene for whom a thousand veteran players are sacrificed every day, so that it may never truly die. Yet even in its deathless state, GW continues its eternal vigilance. Mighty battleforce starter-sets cross the online-store-infested miasma of the internet, the only route between distant countries, their way lit by a draconian retail trade-agreement, the legal manifestation of the GW's will. Vast armies of lawyers give battle in GW's name on uncounted websites. Greatest amongst its soldiers are the Guardians of the IP, the Legal Team, bio-engineered super-donkey-caves. Their comrades in arms are legion: the writing team and countless untested rulebooks, the ever vigilant redshirts, and the writers of White Dwarf, to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from other games, their own incompetence, Based Chinaman - and worse. To support Games Workshop in such times is to spend untold billions. It is to support the cruelest and most dickish company imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of sales discounts and Warhammer Fantasy Battle, for so much has been dropped, never to be re-published again. Forget the promise of cheaper digital content and caring about the fanbase, for in the GW HQ there is only profit-seeking, Space Marines and Sigmarines. There is no fun amongst the hobby shops, only an eternity of raging and spending, and the laughter of former employees who left GW to join better companies. |

Those were my guard tanks in white at the beginning... =)
It was a loong game though... Our half of the table would be done while the other side was still shooting, or we'd all have to wait for an assault to finish... Still fun, though
