I’d prefer to see painted armies but thanks for sharing.

DakkaDakka is really the place where you need anti-tank guns to kill basic dudes, because anything less isn't durable enough.

Etc etc
Also personally i think battle reports with unpainted models are sucks
Thank you for your feedback Artyom.
Pointing our rules that we're misinterpreted, missed our just plain played wrong would be useful. We don't take it as negative criticism. Instead it helps us improve our game and ultimately create better Battle Reports. Please feel free to note any rules errors you spot in any of our videos.
Cheers,

Pylons get autohit in melee. You don't even roll to hit against them.
Be a bit more careful with knights movement, he moved a bit farther than he should have because he was dodging terrain.
Personal thoughts:
I used to run knights and the models look great, just be careful in movement phase. They really get clunky when dealing with ruins and it slows them down a lot.
Necron pylons are a bit OP for regular games. Honestly anything with macro weapons shouldn't be allowed unless doing apoc battle. He had bad rolls but he should have killed a knight a turn with 2 pylons easy.

Thank you for your thoughts Eihnlazer.
Are you saying that melee attacks against Necron Gauss Pylons are auto-hits? Could you explain why that would be the case?
Cheers,

Understood. We'll bench him, and try to bring in some new models to mix things up. Any thoughts on what you'd like to see?
Cheers,

Pylons are the same category of unit as tarantula sentries.
They are basically fortifications/turrets.
I was in a tournament againgst them recently so this was brought up. You auto-hit them in melee but they can still fire as though they are not engaged.
I don't personally have a copy of the rules for said models so I cant bring it up specifically.
