    More kings of war! I'm still pissed at GW for killing WHFB however i still occasionally tune in for old world wars. This was refreshing. I'll definitely watch future KoW videos. Perhaps codex reviews as well? There are a few rules that i'm not a fan of however... The main one being that you can't wipe out a unit and over run in to the next one but back up 1 inch instead and get charged next turn? Who thought that made sense? It doesn't ruin it for me though, bring more vids!

    You said the mortar couldn’t be targeted as it was in the woods, but surely there would still be LOS on it right, although it would be -1 to hit. Thanks! Matt.
    “Terrain does not block LoS drawn to units that are at least partially inside the piece of terrain. If any part of a unit is in a forest, for instance, then other units outside of the forest may draw LoS to the unit in the forest.”

    Rules that force you to charge a flank, front or rear of a unit due to positioning, regardless of the unit's actual movement, are just dumb. I can't count the number of times I had 20 inches of charge with my fastest cavalry, only to be forced to charge the front because more than half the unit is within the frontal arc. Isn't the whole point of a fast unit to be flexible?

      @@helikontex2467 the whole point of cavalry is to have the power to be flexible and charge flanks. It's very easy for any unit to just pivot on the spot while the cavalry is taking pains to go around, which ends up forcing you to need at least two units for a flanking maneuver. What's the point of paying more points for less models if you can achieve the same effect with two infantry units? You're failing to see the point in an attempt to show off.

      Its hit and miss. It depend a lot of your faction, what you fight and how much you invest. Using artillery against Night Stalkers is the worst decision ever, but Abyss Dwarfs can become really strong shooters. Basically Luka got screwed in the match, he lost a turn by covering his own mortar and 1 piece of artillery is super unrreliable.
