nice battle report, i love these videos. Just one thing i notice, if you're playing with the last faq they added the special rule for the master of laketown that says he must be always the leader, correct me if i'm grong.
One thing I find myself consistently surprised by in MESBG compared to other games I play is just how close the game can be. I thought with Amdur losing his horse in the first round of shooting, and then Rutabi being trapped, that the Easterlings were pretty much doomed from the start. I do think there was a mistake (several others have pointed it out) - Master of Lake-Town has to be the leader, which means both sides lost their leader. I agree that a rematch should be held!!! On another note, I love the new icons (clearly highlighting where heroic actions were being called), I would have loved for some overhead shots or even a simple graphic of where everything was in relation to the rest of the battlefield. For example, I knew some units were getting close to the camp but I couldn't tell how far they were (apparently, just too far).
I only think it would be fair if the players will take a rematch. Duo to FAQ master is the leader and both the players would have played completely differently if they knew that. And I'm also supervised nobody acknowledged that so far. Give as a rematch between these 2 with different scenario and the audience will be satisfied.
Not that much, tbh. The easterling had like 1 chance to kill bard the whole time (which was more like an attempt to survive from the legolas/bard killing duo), while the master just flew from the battlefield. We could say that they could have played slightly different the last part of the game, but not that much to make it that different. I'm still with the "rematch" option.
If possible: Have colorful dices for each side (e.g. green for good, red for evil). This way, when you film the dice throwing, us the viewer can immediately SEE who won the dice roll instead of HEARING it with a latency from you 🙃
The struggle is that will very much slow down the games. They often use as many as 4 different colors to represent different attackers, and that's per side
Another great video, production value has stepped up notably of late. It’d be good to see some kind of battlefield snapshot at the end of each turn, perhaps during your turn number slides. Often quite hard to tell what’s going on across the battlefield outside of the main combats. Could be an aerial photo highlighting where each side’s models are?
Two stunning looking armies clashing in a super tight game with many edge of seat moments!? This is what it's all about! ^^ Great game again, well done to the players. And hats off to you Jacob for another beautifully put together video in the series! :)
Wait, but Master of LakeTown has to be the leader, so it should be tie 4-4 after he flew the battle. Also amdur had d7 at first shooting phase, but it doesnt change much up to there
Uff, that first turn of shooting! Although the gleeming horde special rule should have saved Amdurs horse. Very tight game, but did Jeremy lose a single roll off?
I love watching these Battle Reports. What an exciting match and conclusion to the first round in the tournament. Well done to all the players and congratulations to all the winners. Looking forward to the semi-finals.
Superb video and a breathtaking battle 👏 thanks 🙏 I'm very much looking forward to adding this new Kingdom of Tor Ithilas to my collection of the Kingdoms of Saxonia, Durak Deep and Azragor 💪 By the way: new camera? The video quality looks much better!
Great video as always! I love you Channel, I think that you and Zorpazorp are ones of the best channel of MSBG on UA-cam! Thanks to both of you I start again playing the game after 15 years (I start with the first modeling when the movies comes out); and I also buy your 3D print terrain! They are fantastic! I'm just sorry that in Italy there is almost no passion for MSBG and it's practically impossible to play unless you involve some friends who are passionate about modeling.
I love this format: I can’t wait to watch the next match. In the following months, me and my best friend will start an UA-cam channel about MESBG: any quick suggestion? We speak Italian so there won’t be competition 😂
The scenario should give points for being closer to the opponents camp. Say more models in their board half. Doesn’t reward the aggressor so shooty armies can sit back
[SPOILER ALERT] . . . . . . . Great battle report thank you so much! Quick question: was this pre FAQ? Because I thought that the master HAD to be the leader of the Lake Town army and, him fleeing the battlefield, this would have been a draw.
Wasn’t pre faq- I didn’t know they changed the Master. With that rule, I’d prefer to just play 50 points down! I’ll let Jacob decide what to do with the result. ~Jeremy
@@greendragonpodcast2362wouldn’t it be fair to allow slight adjustment to the list if you don’t want to take the master. Maybe just add a captain? It was the first game of the series after all. It wouldn’t affect any previous matches
@@greendragonpodcast2362 without the master, fight 3 without banner, just play something else at this point. However it’s a well deserved nerf, you just have to play around it
I dont get it. how in turn 9 and 10 bard was able to charge not his target? How was tauriel not trapped against the armound 2 times? you need to move in a straight line :( We should definitely update the score!
Thanks for the comment! Which ones are less popular in your scene? In Victoria I would say that Contest and Recon are the only ones people dislike more
I hope to see a rematch but if it is too much of a hassle i can live with the result. I might be on a minor side, for me, a win is a win. Both players didnt know the rule and didn't play the rule and its a fair game. Jeremy didnt know this rule while building his army as well.
@@ConquestCreationsBard and Legolas not moving after killing Rutabi, the arrow that killed Amdurs horse only rolled one in the way instead of the two it rolled before, Tauriel was trapped, she backed wrong

That first round of shooting was brutal. Just super lucky.
absolutely brutal :( love easterling go east

Are you sure that is a rule? I looked in army's of the hobbit and in the FAQs and didn't anything like that.
@@kentonbiffert2802 absolutely sure it’s the last faq
Should this game not have been a draw due to the Master of Laketown running away as he must now be the leader no matter the Tier above him?
Yes, rematch!
@@mr.nuggelton2754 Yes please, VAR
I don’t think so because legolas got into the camp. Maybe it was his own camp not the easterling one, in which case you are correct
@@alpha608pack8 it was his own camp alright
Were does it say that?

That paintjob makes me want an Easterling force. 😧
Half an inch. What a game. Thanks for the battle report :)
It was not even an inch Jacob said that 90% was in.

Best game so far of the tournament IMO. All those models look amazing but those Easterlings are beautiful.
Competitive battle report are the best videos. I want to see all the time
Good, clear batrep. I like the new style with the high amount of information about the relevant situations.
Uff, that first turn of shooting! Although the gleeming horde special rule should have saved Amdurs horse.
Very tight game, but did Jeremy lose a single roll off?
Beautiful armies! And what an incredibly competitive game!
I love watching these Battle Reports. What an exciting match and conclusion to the first round in the tournament. Well done to all the players and congratulations to all the winners. Looking forward to the semi-finals.
An awesome game thus far, Jeremy is always so much fun for me to watch in a battle report due to his strategies!
Loving these series!! Keep em coming! :D
Always a pleasure to see Master Strategy players in battle ! Happy to see Jeremy with the Master
That shooting in the first turn was just too damn lucky. Kudos to the easterling player for still going strong after being incredibly unlucky
on the other hand; he allowed them to get shot by being exposed in the first place
16:24 surely the cpt has to charge both due to control zones..?
Superb video and a breathtaking battle 👏 thanks 🙏
I'm very much looking forward to adding this new Kingdom of Tor Ithilas to my collection of the Kingdoms of Saxonia, Durak Deep and Azragor 💪
By the way: new camera? The video quality looks much better!
What a game. Really exciting BR and crazy rolls, cheers!
Wow, where can I get some of Jeremy's 6-rolling dice?
Dude no kidding. Watching this as an Easterling player had me heated
These are some beautifully painted armies!

Omg half an inch..congrats easterlings and lake town, lovely painted armies.
Such a beautiful army pairing, both looking amazing
That was insanely close
Great stuff! More videos like this !!
Amdur is consistently underrated, especially since the DE came out!
Posted this before watching, which I now regret.
I love this format: I can’t wait to watch the next match. In the following months, me and my best friend will start an UA-cam channel about MESBG: any quick suggestion? We speak Italian so there won’t be competition 😂
This was a perfect set of predictions on my part. I feel like I'm finally wise.
Bro thinks he's him
Except the result was actually a draw.
So sad to see Ambur having an unlucky game. Pumped to see him on the field
Holy smokes, that was a really great game. The scenario was super fun, wonder why it isn't used more often
I would love to get some top down shots in yhe middle and end with lines showing where key models are going with som commentary from Jacob.
Note: Bard is a BEAST! His kill count consists of the enemy leader, a captain on horse, a horse man and counting. What a MENACE!
Got to love Bard bringing his kids to battles to get those sweet stats.
The scenario should give points for being closer to the opponents camp. Say more models in their board half. Doesn’t reward the aggressor so shooty armies can sit back
I agree. I feel like there should be points for having any models in your opponent's camp if your opponent has none in yours.
Never any doubt Jeremy had this in the bag...
This was a very good match! Loved it!
Looking forward to this!
WOW that was a close one!
[SPOILER ALERT]

Holy smokes... What a game. I didn't know who I wanted to win!! It's great seeing the Army of Laketown but those Easterlings look mean.
Crazy battle report !
Great game, beautiful armies.
6mins in and judge dice check, those are on fire
Those Easterlings look glorious!!!
Very fun game. Thanks!
I dont get it. how in turn 9 and 10 bard was able to charge not his target?
How was tauriel not trapped against the armound 2 times? you need to move in a straight line :(
We should definitely update the score!
Turn 9, he had to charge those model becausee of control zones. For turn 10, I have no idea seems wrong. As for Tauriel, I noticed a bit of that too.
Love these bat reps. Nail biter 😊
The Laketown player won his heroic combat vs Rutabi but then didnt move Legolas or Bard again?
He just slightly adjusted them into the models directly next to them
Thank you for limiting the ads!
The people want to see another game! Rematch!
Excellent game!
Didnt bard have two in the ways on that first volley? Because you only rolled one with the second shot. Would have changed the game
Rematch! It was 4-4 when you account for the master routing!!
Jacob you need to use a mic when you're commenting
Yuo. Can barely hear him. 😂
I love Easterlings!!!
Storm the Camp is not one of the least liked scenarios 😅 theres atleast 5 other scenarios players hate more 😆
Thanks for the comment! Which ones are less popular in your scene? In Victoria I would say that Contest and Recon are the only ones people dislike more
So will this be replayed or what? Seems fair imo
I hope to see a rematch but if it is too much of a hassle i can live with the result.
I might be on a minor side, for me, a win is a win. Both players didnt know the rule and didn't play the rule and its a fair game. Jeremy didnt know this rule while building his army as well.
Amount of rules and list mistakes from the top players in AUS xD.
The Master of Lake town one was bad, I'll give you that but name a single rule mistake in this video
@@ConquestCreationsBard and Legolas not moving after killing Rutabi, the arrow that killed Amdurs horse only rolled one in the way instead of the two it rolled before, Tauriel was trapped, she backed wrong
@@ConquestCreations6:40 Amdurs horse should of been defence 6 due to the gleaming horde rule, so the 5 wasn’t enough to kill the horse 😅
