Grimdark Future: Firefight Battle Report (Human Defence Force Vs Infected Colonies 250 points) S1E8

“Dead Center”! Episode 8 in the narrative campaign “Clash on Crapus 4”, where a supposedly abandoned planet suddenly attracts the attention of several different forces and races.
Commander Kruit was aware that Crapus 4 was quickly becoming a huge battleground between several enemy forces and what Kruit considered his allies. The Prime Brothers and The Battle Sisters had just fought hard against the legions of the Robot Lord (Episode 7 in the Clash on Crapus 4 campaign).
Kruit feared that the forces of Havoc were also gathering troops for a larger assault. His squad had moved from city to city in search for more intel and to clear out potential smaller groups of enemies. So far without result. But this city was different. The city center was completely dead, and the stench was horrible. Movement was soon detected around the outer buildings of the city square.
Kruit had time to position his troops, but he had no idea what was waiting in the ruins!

Simply fantastic. So incredibly enjoyable to see OPR being used sooooo immersivity.

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks.. I have more on the way in both Grimdark Future and Age of Fantasy..

[@stephengilbert8166]

That`s fantastic. I`m currently working my way through all your Grimdark stuff (I save them all to my hard-drive and watch them on the big screen on the tv in the lounge). But the Age of Fantasy is just as exciting, and I`ll be watching those second :-)

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

@@stephengilbert8166 Sounds amazing 😁

[@gryffn8860]

Great stuff! Keep it up. We need more OPR bat reps like this!

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

I will👍 I’m glad you enjoy the battles.. Thanks for watching

[@Alexuuuuus]

Awesome! Are those zombies from AliExpress? Thanks!

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks.. 😊 The Zombies as well as the ravens are miniatures from the Zombicide Black Plague board game.. The 2 headed dogs are fantasy miniatures.. possibly from D&D, but I’m not sure..

[@Musuzima]

Hah...! That was fun! Who would’ve thought it was the lowly Zombies that would carry the day...!

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Exactly.. I thought the same.. but it’s just another example of the unpredictable nature of this game.. Nothing is certain before the last round! :-) Thanks for watching

[@toddcarlson5324]

Great batrep!

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks very much

[@bryanblalack4340]

Watching those dice rolls was rough. Zombies roll 6's or nothing. 😆

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Yeah.. Wasn’t expecting the zombies to be able to do much, but they stood strong at the end!😄 Thanks for watching

[@DerPuppenspieler]

prefer your videos, pleasant voice, exciting little skirmishes... but the best thing about it. you see figures in close-up

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks very much for the feedback.. truly appreciatet 👍

[@Fredster9984]

Nice. I really enjoyed it. But I thought that in round 2 when the HDF lost 2, doesn't the third have to take a morale test then?

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks very much.. In Firefight it’s the total amount of units that need to be down to half strength or less, and then morale tests for the remaining units are needed at the end of the round. The three infantry men simply counts as one unit as long as just one remains. But in regular Grimdark Future it would have played differently.. Here a 3 man unit that lost 2 should take a morale test immediately.. I often confuse these different mechanisms myself though..

[@thomrade]

Really enjoying you battle reports, I've been binging them the last few days, you video style and storytelling is really straightforward and engaging. Thanks for the great videos!

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks very much.. I truly appreciate it and I’m happy you enjoy the format.. More is coming👍😊

[@GrimdarkGoblin]

I really love your firefight videos! Keep up the great work 👍

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks very much.. New battles coming up soon👍😊

[@ironknight132]

These always make my day! Great work!

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Thanks very much.. That’s great! 👍😊

¿Por qué hay 250 puntos?

[@ulcbattlereports7388]

Los puntos se calculan a partir de los diferentes ejércitos en las reglas. En este caso cada ejército vale 250 puntos
