When your Thousand Sons roll hot: "Ah, Tzeentch must be paying attention to me." When your Thousand Sons constantly whiff: "Oh no, Tzeentch must be paying attention to me."
To be fair the Thousand Sons were painted by Colin Ward from Legalized Mischief and the Demons were painted by David Roberts of Dave Paints. in the UK. Both fantastic commission artists.
You just KNOW the Guardsman piloting that Scout Sentinel that parried the Vortex Beast and chainsaw'd a wound into it was the talk of the company after this battle
As a Ksons player I cant tell you what part of this battle hurt the most. All the rolls of 1 and 2 are a strong contender, but I also felt the lack of cabal points right in my chest
@@UnityAmongstChaos Absolutely. I love watching and seeing off-meta Thousand Sons on Play-On because it's more interesting, but off-meta definitely hurts the army a lot. Hopefully some variety will come along and fix that
@@Whoknows21356 For sure. Ksons as an army is just unusually punished for not bringing a competitive list, so it hurts a bit to play that way. The strength of the army is in its synergy and combos to modify damage. I mean, can you imagine if Nick played this game with his army built in a way to only get access to a single guard order? That would be silly
God, as someone who got into the hobby mainly because of this channel, I can only dream of facing the Son of Chaos himself one day. He inspired and made me collect Death Guard, an army I love so much! Stellar production again, amazing sound and beautifully painted models again! AND A REMOTE CONTROLLED TANK WAIT WHA
@@cvtuttle oh man i could feel it! Im a thousand sons player (and necrons) since 4th edition D: tzeentch myst be playing some SERIOUS long con on those imperial guards!
These videos are always amazing! They’re great to watch at any time. I nearly died today, and I decided to watch a Play On Tabletop video to help calm me down.
I'm with JT. Did Steve touch Carl's dice?!? I haven't heard JT be speechless so many times in a 40K in 40M segment and he sounded legit sad for Carl for the remaining rounds. Carl, what a fighter. He had some pivotal bad moments, he's gotta come back!
So glad to see Carl! Used to love it when he’d cross paths with the LatCS podcast back in the day. I also played Carl at Adepticon in 2011 his Ultramarines and my Blood Angels. Super fun game and just a fun, enthusiastic guy.
My boyfriend and I enjoy miniature gaming but we can never seem to get into Warhammer stuff. Your playthroughs are so freaking good that it makes us want to pick the game up and go bankrupt buying more plastic toys!
I feel bad cause he forgot the vortex beasts end of movement phase ability but I can't judge cause I forget it all the time. But at least he tanked a bunch of shots
i was pretty excited for this, As these are my Two armies, and then i realized ive already seen this match. still a great one as always. feels bads for the Mutlaith though. ;-;
Lore wise this must be a truly terrifying enemy to fight as a footmen, not only astartes but sorcerer astartes with powers beyond your experience or understandment. Really fighting any psyker as a regular lad is a hell naw day for any recruit
Imagine rolling up to a table with your Rogal Dorn and telling your opponent that you are going to move it, pull out a remote, and it starts moving up the board. Absolute power play.
I think it would be cool if you can show the spread sheets at some point, maybe when their fighting another unit that shows the difference in stats and luck
What a great game I didn't expect that from the start. Two beautifully painted armies. Big up for the remote control Dawn from ground effect. That china makes some lekka things bout.
Great battle report! Why did you use the reroll for the small stuff and not for the main battle tank at 11:48? That round 1 was crazy from both sides, the die didn't seem to want to help either side. Good ol' Tzeentch schemes
I would like "whole army" turn based 40k transform a little toward "unit/points value" turn taking. Like you choose a unit that you want to do something and move, fighting/shooting is all done, then the opponent can retaliate, either with a unit, tank, creature or special character of their own. I feel it would reduce a lot of the impact of the person getting first turn. I havent played for a long time, but whoever gets first turn has a big advantage, right??❤
That's definitely a neat idea! That's kinda how Age of Sigmar's fight phase works too, though I suppose there is a reason why this works like that. Though yeah whoever gets first turn has a big advantage.
@@steliosvagianos8445 i think 40k and age of sigmar have basically the same fight phase just that charging doesnt grant fights first in aos, and in 40k it starts with the defending player
When your Thousand Sons roll hot: "Ah, Tzeentch must be paying attention to me."

Thousand Sons really got duped with their choice of Chaos God. At least papa Nurgle doesn't *deliberately* screw over his own servants.
@@Jagonath He actually does
@@MADARA66613How dare you, Papa Nurgle does not deliberately screw over his servants
Imagine in 2 or 3 years in future that Nick will face someone that into the hobby because of him
I mean realistically that could happen now haha
wouldnt be a guard player without him
Considering he is the reason my starting army is Tau, would love the chance to play and learn from him
@@random1ghost819same reason I want to play steve
Hek I got into the game because of him and this channel
These thousand sons are so well painted. Big respect for that
I can only hope to get them to look that good!
To be fair the Thousand Sons were painted by Colin Ward from Legalized Mischief and the Demons were painted by David Roberts of Dave Paints. in the UK. Both fantastic commission artists.
Yeah!!
Always feel really bad when a guest rolls so poorly - still a great sport and a fun game. Those TSons models are absolutely beautiful
I'm so used to rolling so poorly it doesn't phase me anymore. The bigger surprise for me is when I roll well!
Indeed!
You just KNOW the Guardsman piloting that Scout Sentinel that parried the Vortex Beast and chainsaw'd a wound into it was the talk of the company after this battle
as he should be!
@@im_flat
@@cvtuttle He even lived to tell the tale! Man's halfway to Living Saint already!
That "pile of glue " joke was not horsing around. Well played.
What is this, a crossover episode?
Nurgle would be proud!
With those rolls it is obvious defeat was part of Tzeentch's plan.
Whoever's been producing the music for these videos is absolutely fire at sound design. Super catchy and vibrant every time, gah damn
came here to say this exactly
Agree 39 minute song is what I noticed the most
This was a special stand out episode for sound design - the music was phenomenal!
Nice sound editing!!
*Rogal Dorn actually moves*
Tzeentch: What sorcery is this?
I bursted out laughing when the Dorn turned out to be remote controlled!
Yeah I was looking at the tracks thinking about why they were so differently painted, then when it moved, realised they're rubber...D'oh!
That RC tank was awesome! I would never stop playing with it at home.
JT's voiceover, and the special effects make 40K in 40 minutes my goto Warhammer 40K watching.
Wow, if Tzeench is the lord of change then maybe he wanted you to change dice. Your army is beautiful. Great video guys.
I brought my own dice - but Play On Tabletop wants you to use their dice for camera visibility.
As a Ksons player I cant tell you what part of this battle hurt the most. All the rolls of 1 and 2 are a strong contender, but I also felt the lack of cabal points right in my chest
I was literally counting the cabal points during list previews and wiggling in my seat with pain. That and the disturbing lack of magnus lol.
@@UnityAmongstChaos Absolutely. I love watching and seeing off-meta Thousand Sons on Play-On because it's more interesting, but off-meta definitely hurts the army a lot. Hopefully some variety will come along and fix that
I mean it is a casual game. I think it’s okay to not always be competitive with your lists
@@Whoknows21356 For sure. Ksons as an army is just unusually punished for not bringing a competitive list, so it hurts a bit to play that way. The strength of the army is in its synergy and combos to modify damage. I mean, can you imagine if Nick played this game with his army built in a way to only get access to a single guard order?

I would say the not attaching characters hurt the most lol
Man I could listen to Carl play Warhammer all day, guy is so chill
Thanks man! That's really nice of you to say!

One can seriously feel the absence of the Psychic Phase from time to time...
Really was just the lack of cabal points. Who brings a list that generates 5? In a 2k game? Hell my 1k list still puts out 15
Thank you for uploading doom soundtrack
My God, those Thousand Sons and Tzeentch demons are so beautifully painted. It is pleasure to watch them. Big respect for that!
Yup!
Those dice rolls :( felt sooo bad but great armies!!
You felt bad!? Imagine how I felt! 😂
@@cvtuttle oh man i could feel it! Im a thousand sons player (and necrons) since 4th edition D: tzeentch myst be playing some SERIOUS long con on those imperial guards!
Tzeetch must be trolling arround!
The true heroes of the Imperium take the stage they deserve !
Every time you say "Movement Phase," I hear it as a "Mubin Phase."
Seeing Gaunts Ghosts in action would be pretty cool
I don't think I've ever heard JT say several times..."no words, I have no words"
Man, glad to see a list of TSons not including the same as always. So happy to see some tanks!
Great painting as always! I also really enjoy the "football casting" voiceover work. It really makes it entertaining to watch
Yeah, JT does a fantastic job narrating the game.
Kudos for the production on this video, the music was so good!
These videos are always amazing! They’re great to watch at any time. I nearly died today, and I decided to watch a Play On Tabletop video to help calm me down.
The tonal whiplash of going from “great video” to “I nearly died” is simply amazing. Hope you’re doing ok!
@@cupcakewithatophat1131 I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.
Yup!
Good job Nick! Nice to see a guard victory ✌️
I haven't been this entertained watching a batrep in years. The editing and the commentary really add so much character and flavor to your content.
I've been looking forward to this video since Carl mentioned this was coming on the IC's sometime last month! Great work as always!
Their videos are awesome!
The first round must've been one of the less brutal I have seen of 10th edition so far, almost nothing seemed to die
the tsons constant rolling of mass 1s and 2s....dear god
I'm with JT. Did Steve touch Carl's dice?!?
I haven't heard JT be speechless so many times in a 40K in 40M segment and he sounded legit sad for Carl for the remaining rounds.
Carl, what a fighter. He had some pivotal bad moments, he's gotta come back!
We need a showcase for those thousand sons, chefs kiss
So glad to see Carl! Used to love it when he’d cross paths with the LatCS podcast back in the day. I also played Carl at Adepticon in 2011 his Ultramarines and my Blood Angels. Super fun game and just a fun, enthusiastic guy.
FOR THE EMPEROR, FOR CADIA, FOR LORD SOLAR!!!
Cadia stands!
23:23 That’s some ‘Tzeench says no’ shit lmao
excellent visuals and table effects. really elevates the medium. great job guys.
“Pile of glue” made me do a spit take.
For a moment I forgot that members got early access to this video, so I was SUPER confused when they were playing the same armies lol
This is why we play these games. To watch absurd dice rolls and laugh our butts off.
Love seeing Carl here. Such a good guy! IC's Podcast is one of my all time favorites.
Thanks @BranOfSteel!
My boyfriend and I enjoy miniature gaming but we can never seem to get into Warhammer stuff. Your playthroughs are so freaking good that it makes us want to pick the game up and go bankrupt buying more plastic toys!
Dude... Tzeentch absolutely cursed your dice. A ton of fun to watch and good sprotsmanship was awesome to see when those dice were cursing you.
Ive never felt so bad for someone's dice just abandoning them at the altar like this before in my life.
I'm so used to it by now...
Just a normal shooting phase for the guard.
I'm actually shocked when I manage to wound something
The RC Rogal Dorn is amazing!!!
I know! Now I want one very badly, that or an RC Baneblade 😆
Seems like every time he invoked Tzeentch before a dice roll he was off by exactly one. In other words, it worked.
“Some Atillan rough riders” *confused has mask noises* 😂
Nick playing with Carl… that would be like getting to play against Space Marine Steve! Ah! The hype I feel for Nick is real.
That one minifigure of the guy laying prone on the floor, most likely dead, before the match even starts...
That's my spirit animal.
Always nice to see a Land Raider. I feel like I’m alone singing it’s praise in Custodes as both a transport and Lascannons on tracks
I love my Crusader and the ball of hate I can transport in it.
I feel bad cause he forgot the vortex beasts end of movement phase ability but I can't judge cause I forget it all the time. But at least he tanked a bunch of shots
i was pretty excited for this, As these are my Two armies, and then i realized ive already seen this match. still a great one as always. feels bads for the Mutlaith though. ;-;
Great guest! I LOVE this format for 40 K battle reports, they are the BEST, hands down! Great Job Play On Tabletop!!!
Best episode so far! A+ the vibes, the music, the game just damn perfect
Loved this episode. Nick is such an inspirational dude. I’d love to know where you guys got that Prospero inspired terrain. Excellent episode guys
Bought a pack of 3D files from cults 3d
Lore wise this must be a truly terrifying enemy to fight as a footmen, not only astartes but sorcerer astartes with powers beyond your experience or understandment. Really fighting any psyker as a regular lad is a hell naw day for any recruit
All of a sudden a wild RC tank appears.
Yeah that actually blew my mind.
That Dorn is absolutely beautifully painted!
Indeed!
Hey, the background music is actually pretty good. I'm glad they finally changed it up a bit
Two blue-clad armies meet on the battlefield. But only one can have the favor of the Architect of Fate.
I'm glad, that I'm not the only TS player, who forgets the lethal hits from the detachment rule all the time 😅
Well that story of this match is that is largely what you get for following Tzeentch.
It’s a really good thing that his horses get good mileage in these games, they literally cost more than an elder titan
Whoever chose the music for this episode: keep it up!
Imagine rolling up to a table with your Rogal Dorn and telling your opponent that you are going to move it, pull out a remote, and it starts moving up the board. Absolute power play.
Love how the kriegsman are painted
The Vanquisher auto rerolls wounds vs vehicles :)
Please do a 10th Edition grey knights game, and a black templars one too
Some of the miniatures have evolved great from Rogue Trader to 10th edition.
Great vibes and good sportsmanship 👍
Battle of the Blues! The teal on the Rogal Dorn looks really good!
Best. Game. Yet. That dice luck was so hilarious
It hurt my soul
Nick's turn one summed up: it hits, doesn't wound. 😂
At least my stuff is accurate??
Wowzers, Tzeentch evidently was pissed at that particular group of TSons...
Amazing fight, you could see the warp energy in action with the building shaking in the bottom left throughout the match haha
I think it would be cool if you can show the spread sheets at some point, maybe when their fighting another unit that shows the difference in stats and luck
Me thinking that the riders will go down first round. The riders: To Death and Glory!
about time I get to see my two armies fighting each other on here
I'm a guard stan, and I felt bad for Carl. Tzeentch did not want him winning.
Anybody know the name of the song playing at 1:23?
Turn 3 felt like when I rolled for max shots against a stealth suit unit with a Vindicator, then rolled eight misses.
What a great game I didn't expect that from the start. Two beautifully painted armies.
Big up for the remote control Dawn from ground effect. That china makes some lekka things bout.
The real Twist of Fate here is that Tzeentch decided to troll Ahriman (again).
Great battle report!
Why did you use the reroll for the small stuff and not for the main battle tank at 11:48? That round 1 was crazy from both sides, the die didn't seem to want to help either side. Good ol' Tzeentch schemes
I'm a big time Tzeentch fan so I absolutely LOVE seeing a variety of T-sons n daemons in this faceoff
Thanks - I tried to bring a very thematic and expansive list :)
Vanquishers are great when you bring three of them, support them with orders, and have daring recon (which you'll already have.)
Where did that pyramid terrain come from?!? Its amazing!
The vanquisher doesn't need a CP to reroll to wound against vehicles. It's built into the datasheet.
I see... thanks for the info!
42:21
Oh yeah
😂😂😂😂😂😂 omg 😆
Absolutely creased at "a pile of glue", jeeeeesus, no chill!!
3 seconds from having to retitle it 40k in 50 minutes.
If Play on has taught me anything its that no one hates the TSons more than Tzeentch, those rolls were painful
I have a rules question; How come those rubrics are able to charge at 17:00 ? I am still a noob and have had confusions with disembarking before
I think it might have been the land raiders ability; if a unit makes a normal move when disembarking it can still charge
Great game. Nice to see a full on hard core battle and I love the remote control tank!
send Carl's dice into the warp haha
"I've watched NIck loose a bunch" cuts me deep, but is so true.
I would like "whole army" turn based 40k transform a little toward "unit/points value" turn taking. Like you choose a unit that you want to do something and move, fighting/shooting is all done, then the opponent can retaliate, either with a unit, tank, creature or special character of their own.

we will get AA eventually (hopefully)

@@steliosvagianos8445 i think 40k and age of sigmar have basically the same fight phase just that charging doesnt grant fights first in aos, and in 40k it starts with the defending player
@@mangost2008 I am very new to AoS, though I do believe players take turns picking units to fight back and forth in fight phase. I may be mistaken
The problem is this would make 40k take even longer because on average you would have more activations per game. The game already takes 3 hours as is
Carl, what did you do to piss off our giant blue chicken overlord?!?!?! XD
I have NO idea...
@@cvtuttle Must have been all according to Plan then.
Dude said "I've watched Nick lose a bunch in the past" and Nick was like... "alright" lol
Put those dice straight into Dice Jail
