My son and I have just picked up Shatterpoint. Just found your channel after searching for bat reports to better understand the game. Awesome work, we really enjoyed watching. Now have to catch up with the rest.
Hi guys! Thanks as usual for sharing your games with us. It's always appreciated. I have a few comments. The fact that I'm down to these small tid bits for commentary says a lot about the quality of what you are producing. :) Comments: - Unfortunately, the SP rulebook is very, um, 'open' about how to handle terrain. It's a strength for those who can get along and a weakness in tournament/competitive situations. Their main thing seems to be "Uh, yeah, you guys figure it out." That leads to things like how you handled split Ingress Points. Now, obviously, two players can do whatever they agree to do, but as a default, you would not be able to use one move to go up one ladder, land on a platform, and then go up a disconnected ladder. I get that you guys probably just have an agreement, but it's not legit in standard rules (which AMG has covered in their forums). - I really love how you teach and show as you go. Never stop that. It's awesome. - Terminology. Strikes, not hits. Shoves, not Pushes. Dashes (for example, "pushing" Mace with Mother's ability) not Pushes. Dashes not Advances (Lumi's Sprint). Damage, not Wounds. Just a bunch of little stuff that makes it harder to follow along and learn when the wrong terms are used. - Have fun at Disney! Anyway, that's it. Keep up the great work. I very much look forward to the next one!
Another great episode in the shatterpoint series, and it was really interesting to see just how much you could move a charcter when its not even their activation. Too bad talzin couldnt use her magic fingers to change the game in the end but it was nice
I just played one game of shatterpoint with my (fully painted!) core set, I have Mace and Luminara and really looking forward to playing with them (when I get them painted.) Thanks for the video, guys!
That first Defensive roll from Don... Classic. Don needs to get some magic fingers that Joe has for rolling dice. Clicked the link so you guys can keep having great giveaways
Thanks for the midweek drop. Sorry we didn’t get to see more Witch Magicks from Talzin. But like you said, every game is different. I love that you guys give us so much. Enjoy your vacations.
Great stuff fellas. Mace has some interesting abilities (when they're used right 🤪) but I'm really looking forward to playing the Nightsisters. Mother Talzin's magic to me comes over as very... shall we say, Eldritch, and it kind of Blasts out of her hands, but I've no idea what the Keyword should be 🤨
Nice batrep, it was good seeing both Mother and Mace in action. I really hope we get another Dathomir box with either Nightbrothers or Zombies as the support. Both would be fun. Maybe Merrin as the secondary and Taron Malicos as the primary.
Don needs some magic fingers to spirit up some solid defense rolls........ just been watching the Clone Wars episodes with Savage and Maul together so this was perfect timing for this episode to drop😀
@@graysquadrongaming8670 do wish more happened with the Dathomiri squad set, but as you said in your wrap up at the end of the vid, they just didn't get the opportunities. The pink sabre on Savage really looks cool on him btw
I did a very similar list for my first outing with Talzin and Maul, and not having the full strike team synergy was noticeable (I used Gar and some super commandos instead). Really hoping we see some more Dath's so we can fill out a full strike force one day. They need jusssst a touch of help to give them that magic touch. :)
Hi guys! Our group is pausing on Legion, but we're picking up Shatterpoint. I'm getting the Witches. Who works well with them? Thanks for the battle report. I really like how you explain what's going on and some about why
Poor Mother Talzin's spirit fingers just didn't have that magick touch. I've played with her once. She's interesting. Seems like she might just want to follow Savage straight into battle. I also love Mace. There is so much out of activation movement with him and Ponds. They can really cover a lot of board space.
Talzin's witch magic fingers couldn't quite get it done. The new units do look really impressive, though I'm sad to see the 501st & 212th relegated to the bottom of the barrel. Clone commandos rock though, hopefully they'll make the jump to Legion before too long.
At what point is this just straight bullying ? Joe is like a big brother that just beats up his brother daily. Your videos are still great of all the Star Wars legion stuff you guy do the best job. Imo
I'm still on the fence as to whether to buy into Legion or Shatterpoint, and this channel is not helping that indecision. That being said, though, that Grievous box would make the decision a lot simpler!
Monster game. Really enjoy the Shatterpoint content. I was super interested in this combination of primaries.
Yeah thanks for watching-Don

Great video, thanks for the content!
Thank you for watching!
-Joe
Really love how fast you feature the new stuff in your videos really fast!
We try to get them out asap! -Don

It's a lot of fun -Don
Good game to watch, I want to see some more magic fingers!
Much more to come! -Don
Don needs the magic touch from Talzins magic fingers. That's a dope model too. Great game!
I wish -Don
Great Battle Report. Mace's ability allows him and another unit to dash at the beginning of his turn.
Yeah… I corrected that about half way through the video lol. Makes him a bit better :) thanks for watching!
-Joe
Nevermind I wasn't fully into the episode yet. lol
Fun to see Mace and Talzin on the table. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching-Don
Was thinking about picking up grievous so winning it would be convenient! Loving the batreps flows very well
That would be cool -Don

We will keep that in mind, your right about the split ingress points we probably shouldn't have done that. We will work on the terminology! -Don

They moved a lot. Thanks for watching!

Great vid. Thanks for posting. Subscribed
Welcome to the channel -Don
Loving it! Always fun to see more content. Got me doing spirit fingers whenever the videos go live
Thanks for watching-Don
Cool accessories. I’m going to check them out.
You should! -Don
Really been enjoying shatterpoint. Played about 5-6 games now and starting to see and understand the depth. Thanks for the video!
It's very solid -Don
Thanks for the content, folks, and for the opportunity.
Thanks for watching
Enjoyed the video as always!
Thanks for watching-Don

I was excited to see how Windu and Nightsister boxes would be. Pretty cool stuff!
Glad to help! -D0n

Thanks for watching and the nice comment! -Don
Just got my Mace expansion, nice to see him in action before using it, a lots of delay around here. Nice Batrep! thank you for the vid!
Thanks for watching-Don

Haha I do like mother alot ,Don
Love to see Mace and the Dathomireans! - Daan D
Thanks Daan!-Don
Love the Batrep! I need to get more into this game!
It is a fun game for sure -Don
the nightsisters have always been a fav group mother talzins magic fingies do be swirrrin'
Yeah they are cool for sure! -Don
Just an FYI, mace can move himself with his rush to action. He dashes all of the characters in the unit he chooses AND himself.
We figured that out midway through -Dob
Lol, just got to that point, cheers
Nice batrep, it was good seeing both Mother and Mace in action. I really hope we get another Dathomir box with either Nightbrothers or Zombies as the support. Both would be fun. Maybe Merrin as the secondary and Taron Malicos as the primary.
That would be super cool, love to see more fallen order stuff for sure -Don
Ohhhhhh, new shiny toys! Oh and I'm new to the game, git 3 under my belt, would live that grievous..cough...cough...wheeze....wheeze....box fellas!
Good luck -Don
Nice spirit fingers, almost as good as papa palps once he comes to shatterpoint eventually
He is going to be a beast in this game I feel. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
May the force be with u
Thanks for watching-Don
Man it's so nice to see Talzin in the plastic, she looks *incredible*
She does look good! -Don
Another great batrep!
Thanks for watching-Don
Don needs some magic fingers to spirit up some solid defense rolls........ just been watching the Clone Wars episodes with Savage and Maul together so this was perfect timing for this episode to drop😀
Well that worked out then haha -Don
@@graysquadrongaming8670 do wish more happened with the Dathomiri squad set, but as you said in your wrap up at the end of the vid, they just didn't get the opportunities. The pink sabre on Savage really looks cool on him btw

Yeah, I feel like they don't want to make it full squads yet to spice it up, but the clones and droids get an advantage from it
Great BatRep!
Thanks for watching-Don
Hi guys! Our group is pausing on Legion, but we're picking up Shatterpoint. I'm getting the Witches. Who works well with them? Thanks for the battle report. I really like how you explain what's going on and some about why
Cad maul asajj
It says mace and another unit so he can dash himself as well
You are correct, we correct that just a little bit further into the video. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
So many of the expansions are delayed around here, fun to see Mace in action!
Glad to help fill the gap! -Don
What is your guys favorite primary so far in shatterpoint?
Spirit fingers
Man has to be obi for sure… he is just great and very thematic. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Are you guys planning to run a Shatterpoint campaign? And if so, are you open to scenario suggestions?
We never say no, but not likely any time soon with the release schedule plus legion it's hard to find time for that right now-Don
I am confused how ingress was used here. Did you essentially double ingress?
No, we said the one ladder goes from the bottom to the top, it’s how AMG ran it at gencon and it worked well. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Poor Mother Talzin's spirit fingers just didn't have that magick touch. I've played with her once. She's interesting. Seems like she might just want to follow Savage straight into battle. I also love Mace. There is so much out of activation movement with him and Ponds. They can really cover a lot of board space.
Yeah for sure -Don
does terrain come prepainted? Looks very crisp.
It does not, you have to build and paint it. Thanks for watching!
-Joe
Spirit fingers is the new jazz hands
Thanks for watching-Don
Looking to get into this game, do y’all like it more or less than legion? I like the idea of having less characters cause I stink at painting lol
Legion is still our favorite, but this game is a lot of fun for sure -Do
commenting for the grevious expansion 😄
Good luck! -Don
The spirit fingers were spread all over this game!
Thanks for watching-Don
Great vid. Maul talzin and savage
They go together well -Don
Good game guys
Thanks for watching-Don
Some have Jazz Hands some have magic fingers.
Thanks for watching-Don
Mother talzin confusing mace with her magical jazz hands spitting that hit purple mist
He fell for the purple -Don
29:24 Mace Windu can move himself and another with rush to action
We figure that out later haha -Don
Talzin's witch magic fingers couldn't quite get it done. The new units do look really impressive, though I'm sad to see the 501st & 212th relegated to the bottom of the barrel. Clone commandos rock though, hopefully they'll make the jump to Legion before too long.
Yeah for sure -Don
Saturation fire only effects one b2.
Why would it only effect 1? It says the unit may add -Don
@@graysquadrongaming8670 the first sentence.
When a character in this unit blah blah.
mother talzen's tactical ability triggers first before savage's brute.
If they are both at the start of an activation wouldn't I choose -Don
@@graysquadrongaming8670 Under the activating a unit timing chart- tactics abilities are step c, and "start of activation" abilities are step d.
*insert Napoleon Dynamite jazz hands gif here*
For sure -Don
Enjoy the vacay time!
Thanks we will! -Don
too bad Don didn't have spirit fingers when rolling defense dice in this game. you could hear a tinge of salt in that first roll
Yeah when you start with a full blank out...-Don
It was disappointing to see Mother Talzin's magical spirit fingers do so little this match. Maybe next time.
Yeah each game is different
Unfortunately even magic spirit fingers couldn't get Don the win
Thanks for watching-Don
@@graysquadrongaming8670 I love all your guys content I'm rooting for you to get on a hot streak and win a couple in a row
That would be nice!-Don
Grievous deserved better on the entire SW universe!
Yeah for sure -Don
Spirit fingers
Thanks for watching-Don
At what point is this just straight bullying ? Joe is like a big brother that just beats up his brother daily. Your videos are still great of all the Star Wars legion stuff you guy do the best job. Imo
He is a bully, you miss out on him shoving me in lockers and giving me wet Willie's between takes...I appreciate your support! -Don
Lol, sometimes the dice just go one way. Our local group calls it “Joe luck”. Don is for sure due for some wins! Thanks for watching!
-Joe
At the end of the day…..it’s still a dice game
What's a dive game?
@@graysquadrongaming8670 😂😂😂auto correct. Meant dice
I'm still on the fence as to whether to buy into Legion or Shatterpoint, and this channel is not helping that indecision. That being said, though, that Grievous box would make the decision a lot simpler!
Why not Both! -Don
Mother has magic hands..Maybe she can touch dons...Dice..come on people where were your minds at?
lol thanks for watching!
-Joe
