Making an engaging battle report is actually really hard, but you made it look easy. I enjoyed it. I love how 2nd edition the armies are much smaller. Best 40k channel.
YES! =)
Keeping it brief, not bothering to show us every single roll, yeah it's done pretty well.
I am so impressed of how much effort you put into this. Thank you, this is my perfect drug.
This is one weird leviathan boxset.
Good stuff cant get enough of 2nd edition colors and those old minis are just perfections.
The retro paintjobs just bring me so much dumb joy. As a subscriber to you both, I think I've watched them take shape from gray metal. Keep up the good work!
Perfect collab both armies work so well together on the board, both look amazing with the old school models.
Not to mention the old school paint jobs. The vibrant colors really do justice to the old sculpts, I think.
@@Bluecho4 really makes them pop the old bright paint schemes love it
One hour to Midnight (here in Italy), no work tomorrow...
Wife, son, dog and cats all asleep... Quite.
It's my perfect Moment to relax.
Lights out, video on... ❤😊😊❤.
I am a happy man.
Such awesomeness! 😎
This really was like reading a battlereport in White Dwarf back in the day. It must have been a blast to play through.
Also, the filming and editing must have taken a lot of time and effort. Kudos to both of you for all of the above.
Following you guys along on the hobby journey up to this finale has been hugely inspirational; many thanks for that. And please don't stop at the high point 😉
Awesome
Loved the line “My 2 remaining warriors, their adrenaline sacks dry…” cracked me up
This was top rate stuff
I didn't know either of you guys existed a month ago, and now I'm really glad you're doing a Collab together. Amazing video, thank you!
Guys a HUGE thank you from Italy. A perfect work on all sides, excellent comments in the true spirit of beloved Battle Reports on WD at the time. I will surely follow the channel from now on. Hope to hear more of you soon!
Finally had time to watch this through. Thanks for making an incredible video Ed. Your narration is stellar and I love your choice of words. I hope we have the chance to do another battle at some point 😊
As a fan of the smurf, the 'nids, and especially of this battle, i am very glad to see old figurines and old rules recreating it. Good work here ! (and nice paints !)
You guys deliver the pure passion to the audience. It is so enjoyable, but.. the album cover of the goddamn BOLT THROWER on the wall in 15:50 made a day!
That really was an amazing battle report to watch. Echoing everyone else's comments, but damn, so much character and fun. Much more engaging than other e-sport style reports for me.
I really like how the respawning brought out the best in the Tyranids.. This is how they would be in the lore, attacking in near endless waves. Might be interesting to make a house rule that you could field more small creatures, and the game would be a few more turns, but then the bigger monsters could not respawn?
Honestly these 2nd ed bat reps are turning into my absolute favorites! I never grew up in this era of Warhammer and definitely didn't get into the tabletop side of it til much later.
So these are incredibly cool to me and give me such a vision of the past. The games feel so intense and deep even with such few models.
Thank you for doing these, they are so much fun to watch for me.
As a non-player, this was a great battle report. I usually struggle to follow them, but not this time! Thank you.
Legends what an awesome battle report that was epic and 2nd Ed 40k is the BEST , Top shelf lads 🇬🇧🇦🇺
I love the older aesthetic of early 40K and WHFB, so much more fun than the modern games. Thanks for the great report, subscribed!
This is brilliant. You're making the White Dwarf battle reports I loved as a kid come to life. It's like 35 years haven't passed.
Absolutely love this channel and episodes. The cinematic style, narration and genuine enthusiasm is so captivating and entertaining!!! Keep up the amazing work, it’s great to see some of our favourite models from the good ole days back on the tabletop kickin butt. Excellent job 👍👍
As an Oldie Gamer, I loved watching this bat rep and reliving 2nd Ed, which is still one of the very best versions of 40K. Tyranid Attack is one of the best missions imo, so exciting. This is the first time I've seen one of your videos. I've liked and subscribed 😊 Now I'm going to see if I can hunt down a bunker assault bat rep. If I can't find one, then maybe you'll consider making one? Oh and do take more voltage fields. It saved your Screamer Killer from dying to both the missile launcher and assault cannon and stopped the Ultramarines from just gunning down everything before they even got close to their battle line. I'd argue that the voltage field helped the Battle stay exciting and cinematic.
Awesome! I like how the discription of each turn was read, it sounded like reading the old white dwarf battle report and the narrative from old codex's. Great painting of Buffy too shout out to Matt🤟👍
Love seeing these two great oldhammer channels together
What a great battle report. I have been following Matthews hobby painting on Miniscapes and hope to see his Chaos force in action soon. And Ed. I just discovered this channel and have enjoyed the 4x Blood Angel reports and painted models. Thanks for bringing back the memories of 2nd Ed. 40K.
This stuff is from before I was ever cognizant of 40K and it's so dang cool looking. I like the new stuff too but this these minis are so awesome! The colors are glorious.
Your narration and overflowing enthusiasm for retro 40k gives me life - subbed and shared
This is absolutely fucking AMAZING
2nd Edition was badass. I loved how long the big close-combats took. The granularity of the units is something I really miss
Man, it’s awesome to see a narrative-centric battle report that really feels like a narrative. My imagination is sketching 2nd Edition style pencil and ink artwork in my mind live as it goes on. This is now one of my favourite Warhammer videos on UA-cam.
Now this is the 40k i fell in love with. Ty for this.
thanks for this battle report. i love it how you bring that lore to life (and the nostalgia of the old WD battle reports) :)
Love 2nd edition battle reports! Also want to hug and squeeze Buffy
We all do ;) 😺
That must have been the best battlereport I've seen in years. Thank you very much. Hopefully you guys make more of that.
Great stuff. I’m very much considering adopting 2nd edition as a game system to play using my Firstborn Marines and using my Primaris to play the current edition. 2nd and tenth are so different to each other and will both offer a unique gaming experience. 2nd is such a fun and wacky game system that allows you to enact lots cinematic actions where as tenth is highly streamlined (almost too much so) and uses a lot of abstractions to enact battlefield events. I’m having fun reading the the rules for 2nd and learning how it plays. I only played a few games of 2nd back in ‘98 before the edition change but remember doing some cool stuff. My favourite wargear combo involved giving a character with a warp jump a vortex grenade and teleporting him in to the backline. I also remember outflanking a Landraider and ploughing into my opponents unit of Blood Axe Kommandos.
This was awesome to watch. I love the old-school feel and paint jobs. Brings back many memories. The narration also kept me in my seat. Do more of these please!
To be fair i reckon this guy maybe one of the best at Battle Reports. It's very reminiscent of early White Dwarf writing. Engaging fun to watch and interesting.
Many many more of these please! The narratives of war possible with 2nd edition was what got me into 40k back in 1993.
Oh my god that tiny bolt thrower poster is such a cool touch!!!!
That vortex grenade is the marines answer to voltage field. That’s what 2nd was all about. Just quirkiness and op items, but the wildness was so fun!
Nice battlereport. Brings me back to the days of second edition, where I, despite playing every weekend, never won against Space Marines. OP I SAY!!
Incredible job, loved it! The nostalgia is overwhelming (welp, ebay time to get metal minis!)
So much depth. So much flavor… so much goblin green! Glorious!
All batreps are great. Narration is great. Only showing important rolls is great. 15-20 mins is great. Keep up the good work. Probably best 40k batreps ive seen.
Nice work! I always hated meeting Tyranids in 2nd edition with my Blood Angels back in the day. Had entire squads wiped by a couple of Genestealers. Their close combat stats were super ‘beardy’, as we used to say back in 1998
Glass cannon marine commanders for 28 pts
Beautiful, classic minis and excellent battle report
This is a wonderful BatRep. I have such a hard time getting into these but yours immediately grabbed me.
Cheers guys, really enjoyed that. Love the retro paint jobs. Enjoy watching you paint them, and really brings back memories of my old White Dwarfs. Look forward to more of the same. 👍
Damn you algorithm for showing me this 2 weeks late instant subscribe I can’t wait to binge these after work
Great battle report. The tarantula indeed is a very powerful asset to the Space Marine Army because of its cheap price and the 360° firing arc.
Probably the best battle report I’ve seen. You’ve really got the formula down for showing action, die rolls, and recaps. And excellent period correct models and paint jobs, of course. Top notch all around!
Thank you! Lot of people tell me 2nd edition doesn't work! Worked for me and that was a great example! Great watch thanks again.
This brings backs memories.
Managed to kill a Carnifex by casting Vortex.
Great job with the vid. Really captures the vive of 2nd ed.
I've only recently discovered this channel but it has quickly become my favourite place to go for 40k goodness 😊 love these battle reports.
Aw man it was like watching a 90's WD battle report, great fun!
I really love your narration and descriptions. These battlereports feel so immersive.
This was great! Really nicely filmed/edited battle report, really did the narrative justice. Looking forward to watching more minisodes in future!
i really love the retro art style of this editions, also the narrator with all this suspense narrative god...more videos like this please.
I’m super excited about this. I collected all things 2nd ed about 10 years ago and this is just what I needed to rekindle that original effort.
Congrats to you both on a wonderful battle, and you specifically on a wonderfully delivered battle report.
What an epic fight! I have always wanted to see a battle report of this last stand and it was fantastic to watch. Great work!
This might just be the best battle report I have ever seen. Great tempo and perfect amounts of rules and personal flair.
The awesome paint jobs on these great miniatures doesn't hurt either. Big respect!
This is so a awesome! I love both of your channels and these narrative battle reports using the old rules and minis I grew up with gives me endless joy! Thanks for my favouite 40K content ever!!
The commentary on these games is great! Honestly feel like it really captures the fun of Warhammer! Maybe better than some of the other stuff I’ve seen on UA-cam.
That narration was brilliant. Loved it
Fantastic narration Ed, makes a huge difference with battle reports. Lots of wonderful retro vibes as always . Thanks for the entertainment! 🙌
A beautiful battle report from one of the most entertaining editions of 40k with some of the best painted retro minis I've seen! Your battle reports are some of my absolute favorite out there. Concise, narrative, and focused on the actual gameplay rather than the side chatter and book checking. Amazing job as always
This is such a great battle report, makes me so nostalgic for second edition. Great job on the setup and editing, everything is really clear and easy to follow.
Dude this is amazing! I love all of your videos! Please please keep doing this!
I don't understand how fear affects space marines, "march from macragge and know no fear."
I like the energy and the narrative aspect, that is engaging and brings some tension. Great job. I hope you had fun!
Love the retro-style armies and battles. Subscribed for more Ultramarines :)
I painted them 😉
I love these old school narrative battles, reminds me of my youth lol. Nicely done.
Just have to say, this has to be the most engaging battle report I’ve ever watched, it has so much heart and passion put into it, it makes you feel as if you are truly in the battlefield in 2nd edition. Great work and PLEASE make more of these with tyranids!
This was brilliant the descriptions were fantastic
Very clearly a project of passion. Thank you for this.
cracking battlereport, loving it, the oldschool minis bring joy to my soul
That was such a fun battle report!
I’m not the fastest on the uptake 🤦♂️ At 2:08 I had a “wait, that Terminator commander seems *really* familiar” moment, only for the paint job (and the wrong decals) on the Veteran squad a few moments later confirming it - the two 2nd Edition 40K UA-camrs I began following most recently doing a collab..? Nice..!
These videos of yours are really enjoyable. Keep it up!
Loved this narrative gameplay! Very well narrated!
Nice models. You even have the old flock on the ultra's bases. Brings back memories.
Thank you guys, this is beyond awesome! Judging Nice armies, nice terrain and overall a fantastic Batrep. Just keep it coming, it´s really appreciated.and I love to see the enthusiatic response it gets. B
10/10, this is how battle reports should be done
The mini used for Pablo Doublehard is a great sculpt; I'd love to see that mark of armour make a return.
Thanks for a great, fun battle report; so colourful (both the minis and the narration).
Mk VIII "Errant" Armour, if you get the Deathwatch Veterans, they're wearing it...
@@rononel8046 Thank you 👍
So great sering these two armies face off, nice work guys!
I like to think whatever scrap of self-awareness in that Servitor was kind of eager to get devoured. "End my suffering, please".
These are great I love the emphasis on the narrative
These are the best 40k battle reports on UA-cam ❤
love the retro paint jobs on these, nice battle report!
Great fun. Love the use of the final liberation music
Absolutely fantastic stuff! A masterclass in engaging and entertaining battle reports! Long live 2nd edition!
This was amazing! I'm looking forward to more retro 40k games :)
This report was incredible, thankyou so much for uploading this:)
I loved this battle report! It felt like a batrep from a white dwarf magazine! The narration was perfect!
This is sooooo old school! You have my respect for finding and playing with these minies.
This was really fun to watch
Ed, you have knocked this one out the park. Great painted models, great narrative. Loving the comments as well. Well done mate.
Gonna watch it again no doubt
Well done chaps, so nostalgic. I was always dumb struck by all the gw codexes. Wtf. That's what killed it for me. I have many good memories of 2nd edition games.
This was so much fun to watch. Can't wait for more.
