Great to see you guys are enjoying Legions Imperialis, there definitely aren’t enough battle report out yet and yours are a joy to watch. Can’t wait to see more
Thanks for the comment mate! Weve just filmed another battle report where hopefully we find a balance where we film the start of phase key part then the intercepts (will see if it works, we did it this way that time but actually may have just got fast enough with additional games to film the full phase as its the way I prefer aswell!)
Will try to work on the format: we filmed a game yesterday and did the key moments at the start fully and by the end could do the full (so hopefully we just need to get faster at the game and then can do all all the way through)
Very nice battle report, more LI please! by far the battle report I've seen with fewest rules mistakes, good job. There's so many little rules out is hard to keep track of all of them, and there seems to be exceptions to all of them. And bring some titans!
Thanks for the content! Nice battle and board! Loved that you used both the master tactician and interceptor rules 😊 Couple of things i noticed (as we're all learning the game!): Buildings are +1 to hit FYI so meltablastgun on turn 1 would have hit twice. Also, in case anything was in range, point defence weapons can fire in the movement phase when their model marches (but can't overwatch on a march as you rightly pointed out).
@BearfootMiniatures yeah absolutely - rhinos are actually quite good at softening infantry in the open if they can get in to 4 on a march. I meant to say, well done on the most complete interpretation of the rules ive seen so far on youtube. Sooo a couple of interpretation questions for you (and anyone else that wants to pitch in): Weapons with sky fire - target flying only or all targets? Same question for the improved overwatch (-1) that skyfire grants... Finally, can weapons without sky fire overwatch fliers?
Target all. If you couldn't shoot at non-fliers it would say so. Improved ow vs all seems yes. And all can shoot fliers. If you needed skyfire to shoot them there would be no point for 6's to hit needed rule since skyfire negates it. There's no rule in flyer rule that says non-skyfire cannot shoot. If it doesn't say something it's not there
First time I've seen your channel and it was a great battle report, even though you didnt finish because the world eaters needed to go and pick up their kids! I would love to see more of legions imperialis, especially with the new stuff going on preorder this month. You, sir, have won a sub!
really glad you enjoyed it! Just filmed another one today so should be out next month i think (god the schedules becoming crowded with soon TOW, heresy and LI all fighting for places)
1:02:00 might have misunderstood but reqular dreadnoughts can't engage infantry in building. Can only go b2b with garrisoned building with charging infantry, titans and units with wrecker weapons
@@BearfootMiniatures oh yes. Worst part of it is there's no report #2 out already 👹 rule errors don't bother me generally and yours were pretty minor. I challenge anybody to prove they have played normal game with 0 errors..., 1st game i forgot can't charge out of rhino's :)
Great report! And I learned something new, I was a bit surprised with the 6 stands of Assault Marines in the Thunderhawk so I had to check the Large Transport rule again. A bit of a twisting rules interaction there, Jump Packs giving Bulky but Bulky only counting as one on a Large Transport. And here I thought dropping 4 Assault Marines were good :) Thanks for the video!
We just filmed one today and basically we filmed the start of turn bit of the moves where they were pretty key things (so were narrating them) and then planes with intercept etc: will see how it turns out. I also got a top corner view of the phase so will see what works best till i can get a 2 camera setup
You absolute legends. These are the two legeions I'm toying over. Leaning towards World Eater it was a toss up between them and SoH for my HH army and ended with Soh.
Good job on the report. One thing about the information pop up, like when you informed about the slippery. Sadly it overlap with the channel logo on the lower left, so it is hard to read it :(
More LI battle reports please - loving this game! Only managed to paint about 1k pts myself so far but I’m on my way… oh and personally I liked the filmed movement phase… maybe particularly for the early turns & while we’re all learning the game? Helps with learning for me (just IMHO of course)
Already got the next game filmed but will be doing more LI certainly, loving it as a system Maybe I need to sort a 2 camera setup to be hands free in the move phase for legions or something
Thanks for the feedback mate! Weve already recorded the next ep (filming the key points at the start of phase in full) but realised after the turn that wed done it in good time so could maybe film the entire turn next game
I think you are doing morale wrong from shooting. I believe you need to reduce a detachment by 50% from a single shooting attack to trigger a morale. Not when you reach 50% of starting strength.
Correct. If the detachment loses 50% of the amount of models it started with from the moment it got shot at, you need to take a morale check. For example: a detachment of 7 Leman Russes loses 4 models to a shooting attack, so needs to take a morale check. Another detachment also shoots at it, but since the detachment now started with 3 models, a morale check is now triggered by loses 2 models.
More Imperialis. Some channels are showcasing it and then not touching it again. It is a great game system (even though there are some daft weapon/faction specific rules, you can't currently -Q1 2024- get the models for love or money and the Heresy was a setting that no-one wanted) so more of this please.
Ive got a second game recorded and will be out next month (and then hopefully on a regular basis) Ive just been smashed getting TOW content out atm but it will definitely be on the channel regularly in more normal times!
if you garason a building you take the models off the table so the ironwarrior had to charce the building and you would have some bonusses and a better save.
Think this scenario has most potential for runaway victory. If you can control for couple turns it will be tricky to reach. Flying transports extra handy to try to contest
Thanks for the feedback mate! Weve already filmed the next game (filming the key start of movement bits in full) but will attempt the full phase record on the next recording as we got exponentially faster it turned out (but had already not filmed it all to realise that)
I dont really understand. If you have 6 tanks but only two in the front see the enemy do you still shoot with all 6 or is it only two at the front who can shoot? i dont really find it in the rulebook.
easy one to miss really: basically anything in units dont block eacy other, I suppose it means the manoure of each unit is made much easier because of it and doesnt grind to a halt game wise while you find a position each tank can fire in
@@BearfootMiniatures Yea not big deal and as I said expecting most to ignore it. Though there's one case where it is helpful and even makes following easier. Scenic objectives. No need to worry about having to put objective over objective that's not even or replacing it with flat midgame or "these units count as being there" abstraction. Got to make few myself :)
Really glad you enjoyed it mate, thanks for the kind words! we filmed the start of turn bit of the moves where they were pretty key things (so were narrating them) and then planes with intercept etc: will see how it turns out
I think you get +1 to hit when shooting a building which would mean that both Rich’s Kratos would have hit in the first turn. Man his dice were bad when it mattered!! Great game, would love to see some more LI bat reps.
Oh awesome, bit more squishy buildings isnt a bad thing I dont think (as they are super tough) Ye he just got a kicking off his own rolls I think though weve just filmed the rematch so hes got a chance for revenge!
Like and comment to support the channel as usual. But next time bring giant robots of doom! Titans are true!) Several times miscount dice rolls (mostly eaters saves, there should be more em dead) but this doesn't affect the result
Hey mate! Thanks for the support! Will definitely get my titans on soon: got my krytos waiting in the wings! Oops on the saves! hope We dont do that much across the channels (and its just a freak accident here)
I think some of these might have been when there were more infantry stands that could fit on the buildings. This meant some of the killed models were already off the board so less got removed.
Great to see you guys are enjoying Legions Imperialis, there definitely aren’t enough battle report out yet and yours are a joy to watch. Can’t wait to see more
Really glad you enjoyed it mate, and thanks for the kind words
Matt from Grumpy Grognard Gaming here, randomly found this while looking for LI content - keep up the good work, subbed! :)
Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed it: don’t seem that grumpy though!
Keep up the Imperialis content! I enjoy seeing the full movement phase, as it's pretty critical!
Thanks for the comment mate! Weve just filmed another battle report where hopefully we find a balance where we film the start of phase key part then the intercepts (will see if it works, we did it this way that time but actually may have just got fast enough with additional games to film the full phase as its the way I prefer aswell!)
You can absolutely target a building to be destroyed even if two units are scrapping over it. (page 73)
quality! Thanks for the clarification and page number!
Excellent! More pls, Personally like watching the movement phase!
Will try to work on the format: we filmed a game yesterday and did the key moments at the start fully and by the end could do the full (so hopefully we just need to get faster at the game and then can do all all the way through)
Barefoot thank you for getting into LIMP! Support the lil legions.
there could be no other way!
Very nice battle report, more LI please! by far the battle report I've seen with fewest rules mistakes, good job. There's so many little rules out is hard to keep track of all of them, and there seems to be exceptions to all of them. And bring some titans!
Epic scale has always been my favourite GW game. Looking forward to seeing more games, there just isn't enough out there at present.

Also, in case anything was in range, point defence weapons can fire in the movement phase when their model marches (but can't overwatch on a march as you rightly pointed out).
oooh that may have been big for the game and capping that critical objective!
and point defence firing if they march! now thats mental!
Also the bunker buster shots at 1:02, one of them would have it.
@BearfootMiniatures yeah absolutely - rhinos are actually quite good at softening infantry in the open if they can get in to 4 on a march.

Thanks for the video!
Glad you enjoyed and could get something out ontop of it! I think we all just need to accept their deaths if we attempt to be so aggressive with them
I am enjoying the battle report so far, and I just subscribed!
Would it be possible to do a sped up time-lapse of the movement, with you going back to normal speed for key moments?
We just filmed one today and basically we filmed the start of turn bit of the moves where they were pretty key things (so were narrating them) and then planes with intercept etc: will see how it turns out. I also got a top corner view of the phase so will see what works best till i can get a 2 camera setup
Late to the party, but more Imperialis content is always appreciated.
Glorious game!!! Want more!!
Glad you enjoyed it mate!
Great report guys! Let's see another! This time with even more stuff!
You absolute legends. These are the two legeions I'm toying over.
Leaning towards World Eater it was a toss up between them and SoH for my HH army and ended with Soh.
Good job on the report. One thing about the information pop up, like when you informed about the slippery. Sadly it overlap with the channel logo on the lower left, so it is hard to read it :(
ahh damn, Ill bear it in mind: Glad you enjoyed the battle report!

Great game, thanks for the bat rep!
Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed it!
Good quality Imperialis report! Hard to find!
End of Turn 1 in every game of Legions looks like the scene in Independence Day with every roof crammed full of fools waving to the aliens
Definitely not going to be unable to see that!
More imperialis with full movement phases please 🙏
Thanks for the feedback mate! Weve already recorded the next ep (filming the key points at the start of phase in full) but realised after the turn that wed done it in good time so could maybe film the entire turn next game
@BearfootMiniatures excellent. Looking forward to more LI. If you ever want a guest, I have my World Eaters readybto go 😉
I think you are doing morale wrong from shooting. I believe you need to reduce a detachment by 50% from a single shooting attack to trigger a morale. Not when you reach 50% of starting strength.

Noted! Thanks for the rules spot: we saw this before or next game (yesterday) so hopefully have done everything ok!

Thanks mate really glad you enjoyed it!
if you garason a building you take the models off the table so the ironwarrior had to charce the building and you would have some bonusses and a better save.
Legion builder app? Someone point me in that direction please
Hey mate it can be found here: legionbuilder.app/
be sure to click save on the list often or itll wont store it if you refresh the screen
Think this scenario has most potential for runaway victory. If you can control for couple turns it will be tricky to reach. Flying transports extra handy to try to contest
Definately agree on both: a Steagle flying around then depositing a cheap tac detachment may be in order!
LES ABHUMAINS.ENFIN!...J'ETAIT CERTAIN QU'ILS ME TOMBERAIENT SUR LE DOS 1 JOUR OU L'AUTRE, MÊME AVEC LES LEGIONNAIRES IRON WARRIORS.
Do thunder bolt have the intercept special rule??
They do mate: flyer, interceptor, jink 5+
Such a massive rule I think, gaining air superiority is so, so good
Omg I missed that!
You can not move units through enemy units unless you are a larger scale than them. So your rhinos can not move through his rhinos.
Thanks for the feedback mate! Weve already filmed the next game (filming the key start of movement bits in full) but will attempt the full phase record on the next recording as we got exponentially faster it turned out (but had already not filmed it all to realise that)
Woop,tonight's viewi g sorted
Hope you enjoyed it mate!
I dont really understand. If you have 6 tanks but only two in the front see the enemy do you still shoot with all 6 or is it only two at the front who can shoot? i dont really find it in the rulebook.
Pg 56 says only models in the detachment who can see and are in range can shoot.
@@jimmybowlsfast so tanks that are behind other tanks in same detachment can shoot through there own units? have i understod it right?
@@SovietSpetznaz I think that’s correct but not sure where it confirms it
easy one to miss really: basically anything in units dont block eacy other, I suppose it means the manoure of each unit is made much easier because of it and doesnt grind to a halt game wise while you find a position each tank can fire in
The thing i've learned with this game is that if you are using aerial transport , you have to really Really really commit to air assault
Ye mate 100%: swamp em so some definitely get through I think
57:14 minor point and not all players likely care about this rule but can't end at top of objective. Can go through, can be b2b but not over it.
Its one of those we didnt really think about: In the next game weve followed this rule (though I do find it odd)
@@BearfootMiniatures Yea not big deal and as I said expecting most to ignore it. Though there's one case where it is helpful and even makes following easier. Scenic objectives. No need to worry about having to put objective over objective that's not even or replacing it with flat midgame or "these units count as being there" abstraction. Got to make few myself :)
Best LI bat rep so far, you do need to show at least some movement (makes the flyers, point defence and overwatch questions interesting)
Really glad you enjoyed it mate, thanks for the kind words! we filmed the start of turn bit of the moves where they were pretty key things (so were narrating them) and then planes with intercept etc: will see how it turns out
You only ever get 1 save. Jink is unmodifiable ( it’s an invulnerable save) plus you have your armor save. You pick the best one to use.
noted: seems to not come into it much though with most weapons being -1 that shoot them
@BearfootMiniatures you're right, Jink is most useful vs Armourbane
I think you get +1 to hit when shooting a building which would mean that both Rich’s Kratos would have hit in the first turn. Man his dice were bad when it mattered!! Great game, would love to see some more LI bat reps.
Oh awesome, bit more squishy buildings isnt a bad thing I dont think (as they are super tough)
Ye he just got a kicking off his own rolls I think though weve just filmed the rematch so hes got a chance for revenge!
21:56 weren"t you still t1? Can't deep strike t1. Also you can bring fliers any point of movement phase
flyers any time is much better to have the option (though I do like seeing where my opponents turn is pre bringing on squishy flyers)
41:00 autocannons are -1 but light at so ap0 vs vehicles
ruh row: I recognise my failing and will be sure to correct it!
Like and comment to support the channel as usual.
But next time bring giant robots of doom! Titans are true!)
Several times miscount dice rolls (mostly eaters saves, there should be more em dead) but this doesn't affect the result
Hey mate! Thanks for the support!
Will definitely get my titans on soon: got my krytos waiting in the wings!
Oops on the saves! hope We dont do that much across the channels (and its just a freak accident here)
I think some of these might have been when there were more infantry stands that could fit on the buildings. This meant some of the killed models were already off the board so less got removed.
nice battlerport and a nice table but playing whit world eaters and iron warriors its a bit problematic to see the units on the table :)
Thanks mate! Getting my aux painted first so I’ll try and choose colours that’ll be easily seen cos I think you’re right!
Jink on your fighters...
oop did we not take a save on some? I thought it was instead of armour?
GETYSBURGH...AGAIN.
EPIC
