Subject: [DORKLORDS] Warmachine Video Battle Report - Sorscha Khador VS Stryker Cygnar
I can't believe he didn't use the feat until that late... I wish we could get the Cygnar player's thoughts on why he did that, I'd be interested to find out

I wish I had time for all the game systems I own, let alone want to own...

Thanks for the report! That was nice and easy to follow and could be good for someone looking at learning the game. I liked the level of detail and explanation for that reason. The graphical display of the damage was also very nice.
There were a couple of concerns I had:
- at one point, the Destroyer missed from being out of range, but you didn't show the scatter. I don't know if you just left it out to save time, but if so then just mentioning it scattered away and hit nothing would have been good.
- in one of the turns, a jack activated and "spent a focus to stand up", but you can only do that during the control phase, not during your activation.
Otherwise, it all seemed good! Thank-you again, and I'll be sure to show it to some friends who'd like to understand the game better.

HiveFleetPlastic thanks for highlighting those things, im not sure if they remembered to roll for scatter or not, one of the guys who played in the game will probabaly answer that once they see this thread!
Alot of our club members have very large Warmachine collections but are only now getting started at painting more than 11-15 points. We hope to branch out and include some hordes stuff, and bigger games in the near future.
We really aim to try and encourage new players to Warmachine with our videos, especially those who have never tried a system other than GW. Privateer Press games can be a real breath of fresh air, a welcome change..

Well thats how Battle Reports should be! As a newbie to Warmachine i really enjoyed your video because it was easy to follow (those dmg-charts were awesome!), quite entertaining and beautiful to look at! I´ll definitely watch your other vids!

Thanks for the comment HiveFleetPlastic,
Regarding the scatter for the missed Destroyer shot it unfortunately was an 'oh crap I totally forgot to do that' type of moment.
It's comments like yours that we rely on to improve our own gameplay which will then (hopefully) help improve the videos that we shoot.

I didnt have any audio but it seemed like the khador player needed to be significantly more aggressive. When the ironclad went down, he should have been going full steam (see what I did thar?) ahead as the cygnar player did not have much left to stop both of those khador heavies.
Another new Warmahordes player here and this was a great video really teaching the mechanics and tactics of the game. All around a great video. Thanks for sharing.
