Another cool report. It's interesting to see how much shooting can come out of a decked Jetbike squad; the combination of twin linked Catapults and Doom has the potential to do some damage.
One question: why did you decide to hold so much in Reserve? The entire army could have moved onto the table on turn 1. Why risk potential poor Reserve rolls?
No earth shattering, thought provoking quote. I'm just someone who was introduced to 40K in the late 80's and it's become a lifelong hobby.
The last turn, you should've released the farseer from the unit, so the jetbike unit can take an objective at the back(the one with one of the unpainted frisms)
Awesome report!

We both forgot about the first turn 'move everything" on to the table....

at the time the Emperor's champ and unit looked like they was going to beat my bikes up and consolidate to that objective.... and it was a precaution, if the game went farther I would have won. But that is how it goes....
1st Minor detail-
The prolonged fight in turns 4 & 5 with a single BT and all of the jetbikes; the Pile-In maneuvers were forgotten. The marine should have been surrounded after the first round.
Like everyone else, I dig the music, the scrolling captions, great production. On that, 2nd minor detail- The sunshine is coming in, messing with your lighting. Perhaps a pull shade? Again, it's a very minor nit-pick.
Looking forward to more.
What is the music to which we're listening?
