Hello kittens, it's update time!

Great videos! Only thing is that maybe you should add some markers on the pictures just so the viewer can get an idea of movement for those annoying times when our (my) frontal lobes fail (or an oddly angleled picture appears) and we (I) can't seem to remember who is who and what is what...
But other than that, it just doesn't get any better when it comes to battlereports!
Kudos to you.

Thanks

I'll see what I can do about adding some markers in, that's a good idea!

Updated with my first tournament with Wood Elves

YES

Will head on over this morning, been waiting to see you really mobilize the woodies

- Salvage

Fun to watch good stuff, although what is that unit of warriors that do nothing each game? sorry DE noob here.

Basically, they're ablative wounds for the Sorceress-they give her somewhere where she can hide out of combat and cast her spells, and still be safe from shooting and magic. They also carry the Standard of Discipline when the level 4 is the general, so that I can get my ld10 general. I also use the Sacrificial Dagger on the level 4 to turn them into 6pt power dice

So tournmanet list optimizing also turned out something that fits 100 percent with the druchii lol.

Poor bastards.

Finally gotten organised enough to start doing tournament previews again, first post updated with Brighton Warlords preview

I PMed you a question about how you put together your videos.

The level of comp in the UK is pretty astounding. While a lot of it makes sense and there's things I know my local gaming group does (caps on unit sizes, caps on the # of power dice you can throw at a spell, caps on the amount of points unit can be, etc)

It seems like the comp bludgeoning the Lizardmen take is pretty unfair though, you do realize you NEVER play Lizardmen? I've watched all of your battle reports since Call to War and you've literally never played a single Lizardmen army.

I'm not usually doing well enough to get up high enough to play Lizardmen, I usually get smashed back down the tables by Ogres or Skaven. I hate Skaven :(

Also, the top ranked player in the UK uses Lizards, they do get hit by comp but they still do fairly well. Very tempted to do them as my 2013 army...

Updated with all 5 games from Lightning Strike 2012, summary to follow shortly

Just a humble request from a fan of the channel in your summary could you let us know how you placed without soft scores?

Sure thing

Hey there Tom, finally managed to work my way through all of the videos, loved them.

Do you know of any good Tomb Kings players that regularly post tournament battle reports? Or even just blog about tactics, lists, etc?

Thanks.

I've been looking for Tomb Kings batreps myself. About the only ones I've found are either Miniwargaming (Matt uses TK), Bunkertube (though there hasn't been much new stuff) FAT guys and vidbatreps (I think that's what they're called?) who do tournament stuff.

Or check out the Khemri forums- there's a whole batrep section, and the forum is dedicated to Tomb Kings.

The Miniwargaming ones are fun and very well done, but as Matt himself proclaims, he doesn't play much fantasy and doesn't even really know the rules THAT well. I'm looking for next level tournament like reports that I can use as a learning tool.

I'll check out the Khemri forums, thank you.

If you're looking for Tourney stuff, (and vid stuff) check out Vidhammer Fantasy on YouTube. As far as I can tell, they cover tourneys and pretty much give a blow-by-blow of everything while showing (most of) it in video format.

Glad you enjoyed them

My local TK practice partner was talking about starting up some battle reports but he's not really gone anywhere with them, main reason is that he is a really bad loser.. I mean, I hate losing, but compared to him I'm fine...

I'll give him a nudge to see if he's still planning on doing them, but I've sort of alienated that gaming group a bit, turns out calling out one of them on cheating in both tournaments and practice games wasn't considered good form...

sorry to butt in here Tim. But I, Skari (Iago on the forum) have my tomb kings and have uploaded a TK vid on my channel. I also have a long running BR thread on the TK forum. Anyone can PM me for more information as I am not going to hijack your thread with links.

As always, great batreps can't wait to see more. (also, see you on twitter).

Cheers
