Subject: Video Battle Report - Orks vs. Chaos Deamons
Hello Gamers,
I have Video Battle Report of my fourth Cereal Gamers League Match. It was against Jon Hartel and his Chaos Daemons. This was first match against the new Chaos Daemons. So I definitely made some mistakes playing against them. The battle swayed back it forth a bit right before settling right in the middle. Hope you enjoy and thanks for watching.

You can only over watch the first unit to charge you. Thus when make charges it is preferred to use a sacrificial unit to absorb over watch, or have your opponent forgo it completely.

You can choose not to in case he doesnt make the charge or not to as you can use your burnas as power weapons

That is correct, but I don't see the benefit attempting to use melee when you are inside a tank.

True true just saying what's possible but it saved me a few times for taking the game of chanse that the one unit will miss their charge and you get to use the overwatch for the other thing.

I get what your saying but that brings up a whole new can of worms of "when" your considered locked in combat. That debate aside.
In this case I could choose because they are charging my Battlewagon not the Burna Boyz. They would never be considered locked in combat from someone charging the vehicle they are in.
