    Oh the tyranny of white defence dice! Very swingy game, which is fun to see. A single one-sided round didn't determine the outcome...until it did. But holy crits! Critacular!!! Great report, as always, gentlemen!

    Great video! I love watching the ones where you guys use the same units that I own so I can see how to use them better. I've definitely learned about the Taun Tauns today. Crits make the world go around!

      Tauns are really funny just have to be cautious on the approach. Thanks!

    I always love seeing Rebels vs Empire since that is what my friend and I play. I'm cheering for rebels!
    Man what a critical heavy game. O.o And what a comeback.

      @graysquadrongaming8670 I'll be getting my clone wars starter set at the end of the month and have a box each for a dsd1 spider droid, arc troopers, b1s, and phase 2 clones. I'm really trying to pay attention to your videos to learn how to be a good player in preparation of when I can really get started. I tryed war hammer but didn't like how dark it was. Legion is a lot of fun, has great sculpts, and is relatively cheep for a table top war game

    Insane crit-tastic comeback by the rebellion. NGL I didnt give Joe's army much of a chance at the top of the video, but those sabers really came through mid game.
    Thanks for what you do, love it!

    Mate...i looked at the thumbnail, and before even pressing play i knew Don was getting destroyed. Rebels are great. Imperial gunline needs to calm down and wait for 2.7 because the wind has changed 😅

  • @happesushi
    @happesushi Місяць тому +2

    I think the most critical problem is the objective, I think bunker assault is extremely in favor of melee/range 2 lists. Joe rolling like 90% blocks on his force users def didn't help tho.

    Alright, I'm sold on getting Rebs. If I can find an Echo Base Defender box that's not over MSRP, definitely going to go with that even though going from red defense dice with my GAR army to white defense dice on everything is terrifying, especially when the crits come rolling. What would yall suggest getting after the EBD box? And as always, great video.

    • @graysquadrongaming8670

      Op luke and bad batch. Sleepers are fire. Rebels are so much fun to play, you expect to lose minis when defending, so if the defense dice show up, it is the BEST feeling ever! Good luck

    Ive been running a version of this list since 2.0 and have not done this good. LOL
    Gun lines suffer once melee focused units slam into them. My current list is a hero hammer that loves rolling critical.

  • @ironjoebob7
    @ironjoebob7 Місяць тому +1

    What a critastic game. Just a tip. On the tactical strike turn. If you are using the offensive push. Double moving gets you 1 more aim than aiming then moving. Even if you don't move the mini at all. It ends up with 4 aims total instead of 3. Love your videos

    • @4Refros
      @4Refros Місяць тому +2

      Offensive push only gives tactical on one of the actions you take, not both I thought. So wouldn’t it be the same 3 either way?

    • @ironjoebob7
      @ironjoebob7 Місяць тому +1

      @4Refros it doesn't say anything about it only working once. Just says this unit gains tactical 1 this turn. Normally that wouldnt make any difference. But it does if the unit has steady

    • @graysquadrongaming8670
      @graysquadrongaming8670  Місяць тому +2

      It says your next move you get tactical 1 so it only works once

    • @The_Cranky_Painter
      @The_Cranky_Painter Місяць тому

      No. Offensive push says while performing a move. As per official rulings before, it applies until the end of that unit's activation.
