This is our first video batrep, so forgive us if it's a bit rough, this will be a learning experience for all involved.

2000 points of Elves vs Undead and it's a pretty good battle.

Happy watching, and thanks in advance for doing so!

Interesting battle and a good example of how the cruel dice gods can screw up a perfectly sound battle plan. I really like the fast-forward turn view with commentary.

However, get a better camera (or use better video/audio compression). The pre and post battle discussions are almost inaudible and the audio recorded on the hand camera sections have very distracting background hiss and some bad digital echoing. Also, your dramatic background music occasionally drowns out what you're saying so dial back the crescendos a bit.

The elves have my sympathy. I once threw three elite combat units into the front of a brotherhood cavalry horde I desperately needed to get rid of and did a spectacular level of damage overkill to them only to roll snake-eyes for the nerve test and leaving all my units locked in position. My whole centre got rolled up because of that one. Sometimes the dice just hate you.

Thanks for the feedback, and yeah this was one of those games. We're working on the video and audio upgrades, the next one should be better.
