@PlayOnTabletop, this was a brilliant battle! Well done to both players for doing their best and making it a great game to watch. I have one question though, can we see the return of the Meltmanders? They only made one appearance and they proved that primaris marines aren't the best.
How do you paint the effects from deadly print studios?
@@Snoopacusalphadelta Check our youtube channel, we are creating painting videos for our Fx. 2 new videos incomming!
Leagues of votann? Thoughts guys?
There reason necrons wins more advanced technology tau empire
Micahel reminding Nick about aunshi was a classy move. Especially knowing now that he wasn't even allowed. Cool dude, both players were fun to watch
I am unsure how everyone thinks he is not allowed.
@@wrestlingguy8722 He's a named character so he's allowed in without breaking Sept tenets, but without an FAQ he breaks the ability to use Mont'ka/Kauyon unless he's in a Vior'la army, as per the written language in the T'au codex. GW rules writers are the BEST, aren't they?
@@SarajevoKyoto ahh! Gotcha! And yes, they are the best....
Nick: *maniacly screams Montka from deep within
Nick 5 minutes later: "The Rail Rifles are -1 to hit cause the Pathfinders moved"
Me: bruh
Doh. Apologies. Was a misstep with that unit.
Also the whole "my hammerhead missed" while forgetting the free re-roll from the targeting array ability
@@jumpninja001 He remembered the second miss, definitely. Rolled a two then a one. Not sure about the first miss.
@@matthewrayner571 pretty sure that was a command point re-roll, no the targeting array though
@@jumpninja001 could've also used the T'au sept 1 reroll for to hit or wound per unit attack Tenet.
Nick is honestly one of my favorite players to watch. He's such a good sport and always so excited about everything. It's like he's always hoping for the 'coolest thing' to happen even if it wouldn't be a great outcome for him - like when his Broadside died and he goes "OH MAN HE'S OUTTA HERE!" I'm just now starting to get into the hobby and painting and working on an army and I can only hope to run into players like him.
Why not be a player like him? Make it fun for others as he did for you!
"Tau suck in close quarters combat"
Aunshi: "Hold my beer."
He's that guy who keeps bringing a knife to firefights.
Aunshi: observe
@@antongrigoryev6381 And Wins :p
@@EverianKalim "Laugh at the guy who brings a knife to a firefight. Fear the guy who keeps bringing a knife to firefights."
@@antongrigoryev6381 so true
Always love when Michael comes in for a match, such an awesome player with great sportsmanship. Super exciting game, great job guys!
Thanks man! I really appreciate that!
I just bought my first set of 40k miniatures. After a year of watching this channel. Nick, your battles here are what made that first set Tau. Never painted anything other than a house and rifles before in my life. Pretty stoked. Thanks for the inspiration.
You are very welcome! I hope you enjoy it!
What did you buy first? I was really drawn towards the riptide model but ended up starting with a bunch of troops for practice.
welcome to the Greater Good! I started too with Tau because of this channel and Tau nick. Now a group of pathfinders is turning into a full army!
@@yellaturd I started about 7 months ago and started with a starter box which came with 1x ethereal, 10x striketeam/breachers, 3x crisis suits. Then after that box I’ll give you what I bought in sequence (not all at once of course) to show you how I built my army: 1x Commander(coldstar) > 2x boxes of 10 man strike teams > 1x box of crisis suits > 1x cadre fireblade > 3x boxes of broadsides(rail rifles) > 2x devil fish > 1x box of 10 breachers > 1x Riptide (Magnetized for loadout) > 2x boxes of 3 man xv25 stealth suits > 1x box of crisis suits > 2x box of hammerheads > 1x box of kroot > 3x boxes of broadsides (missiles) > 1x ghostkeel > long strike > darkstrider > shadow sun. That’s where I’m at today, now I’m saving up for a second commander for the enforcer variant, a storm surge, and then finally a third devil fish for montka shenanigans. Hope this helps, and remember that you should buy what you think looks cool and what’d be fun to paint up and to put together. ALSO, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, MAGNETIZE YOUR SUITS SO YOU CAN EXCHANGE WEAPONS. Your pockets will thank you later.
@@richardmartin6069 That's impressive for such a short time if you've managed to finish all that. I've got 6 magnetized crisis suits, 10 breachers, 10 of whatever the longer range troop choice is and 10 pathfinders fully painted. As well as some drones.
Assembled and primed I have a riptide, a ghostkeel, 3 little stealth suits, a devilfish, two broadsides and a stormsurge.
I've also recently obtained a recast supremacy suit that I have to try putting together.
I'm just super slow at painting and get distracted working on other armies.
Love how the battlefield looks like they are fighting in a Tau city. Is that the Manta used as terrain on the edge of the field and used to hold the dice 🎲 box?
You bet!
@@PlayOnTabletop How’s the Manta going btw?
I didn't even realize that! That is amazing!
play on manta top
I didn’t notice that is so cool if it is
Play On Tabletop creates the best battle reports on UA-cam ! I’ve started a 3000 point tau army thanks to tau nicks endless enthusiasm. The content and cinematography is always top notch. Keep it up Play On Tabletop !
I couldn't agree more, they make it interesting and easy to follow.
So true
Nick's enthusiasm got me into Tau too! He's such a cheerful guy it's fun to watch him, his smile never leaves his face, win or lose
I'll invest in a small army and check out the codex for the T'au.
Thats alot of greater good
Love to see Michael back again. Don’t worry about the loss man, we’ll be back
You can't keep a good necron down. I'll be back.
It's always great to see the Necrons take to the battlefield.
my sister has necrons, and i love them too
i play tau, so i love this battle so much :)
Well If you'll going to play aginst her sth like this, I'm kind of sorry for her 😀😀
That terrain is magnificent. Y'all need to do a video of just a brag/show-off of all the terrain options you have.
Glad to see the Necrons back on the channel!
AunShi demonstrating the greater good was really cool to see.
That finish is cannon in my head.
The production value of your Episodes is crazy good, it really moves the needle on entertainment value Standards for 40k bat reps
The two
Most technologically advanced factions head to head, this is going to be good
gw seems to disagree. apparently 7 milenia of ultra raprid advancement beat 150 millions years tech
@@mvgiwaranolvffy exactly half the necron tech probably doesn't work anymore
@@Connordaboss45 they work, but tau bring gw money so..
@@mvgiwaranolvffy necrons lords don't know how any of their tech works, only the techpriest equivalents in their courts do, and those guys hide secrets from each other
imperium ain't the only ones that suffered from losing access to tech lol
that dice transition at 9:44 was clean af
YES! THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR! GO T'AU NICK!
yessss!!!!!
Thought necrons might have a chance when I saw they got turn 1
Saw how little they managed to do and skipped to the end, was not surprised by the result
agreed it seems like the starting codex were all okish power level till around DE came out and now every book is op and gets nerfed
It's shocking how well the Necrons did in those first 2 turns, tbh.
necrons need some love from GW
The Tau are a joke right now...boring to watch and boring to play against.
They need to be hit with that nerf hammer and soon.
Even turn 1 that list wasn't going to last. Turn 1 with a meta list, maybe he could have won but.... yeah I wouldn't hold my breath. Big codex power gap there.
That was a blast (pun intended)! I love seeing the Manta on the edge of the board and how so much of Nick's collection could also be used for terrain X3
Michael and Wattson make their glorious return! I'm so excited to see how this game shakes out.
I don't know how I feel about the Tau. The necrons went first, rolled pretty well after turn 1, reanimated a lot, took a lot of objectives, killed quite a few units, racked up a lot of points with the Silent King, the Tau missed with the railguns most of the time, and the Tau just wiped the the board with their shooting. It just felt like a lot of things went right for Necrons, things went bad for the Tau and they still wiped out the army.
That was a pretty soft Necron list into Tau, though. Scarabs and warriors are too vulnerable in a meta of massed indirect fire and blast. Doomsday Ark is bad. Deceiver is way overcosted. Not enough wraiths. You can beat Tau with Necrons, but not with this particular build.
@@PIRATER0B0TNINJA Is it odd that ctan are more expensive than a monolith now? It just feels odd that a lord of war is cheaper than an elite. Though a monolith would not have worked here. No invul and such a big target. Railguns would have made short work of it. Provided they dont miss lol
Necron still do better than Marines against tau XD I also saw Tau absolutely break drukhari in one turn.. this codex needs the nerf bat
@@peters6345 Granted the Tau needed some much needed updates but it's really started to show a pattern. It's almost as if GW releases a new codex that's op to drive up model sales /puts on a tin cap
@@eviljoshy3402 yeah true, though im surprised eldar codex isn't as crazy, apart for the harlequins who are very OP.. I just wish GW would care more about balance
Amazing quality batrep as always, you guys are some of the best. But I've got to say, I hate the design choice of weapons that ignore invulnerable saves. I know it's probably not game breaking, but I hate it. Also I just finished the first Tau shooting phase and he killed 4 Wraiths, 15 Warriors, all the Skorpekh Destroyers, all the Lokhust Destroyers and a Doomsday Ark. That's 840 points... in 1 shooting phase. I feel like that's a massive problem for the health of the game. 9th edition started so strong, but it just feels like we're going from 1 busted thing to the next. :( Anyway, great batrep, you guys are awesome.
Yep, power creep is truly disgusting.
I knew going in that this was going to be a blowout for the necrons, there's no way they can compete against the Tau.
Necrons got me into the game, it hurts to watch but I still love 'em
43:37 feels bad, man. Necron player did super well but this was pretty much over after Nick's first shooting phase.
"Your warriors are just so hard to kill" said after having decimated easily over 700 points worth of models in a single shooting phase. Good game overall, both players did great. It's a shame Necrons just can't compete anymore against newer codexs
There is a huge disparity between then pre nachmund codexes and post, is not healthy for the game balance is a huge problem
I believe Nick should have played with a pts handicap, not only would that have made it fair, it would have been loreful for the setting of the battle where the Tau are supposed to be desperately fighting for survival, not the other way around.
@@pinoarias8601 tau don't fight battles of desperate survival, if it looks like they're going to lose they dip
As rough as it was, the Necron turn 1 was a bit of a wash for damage. Could have been a close game if the first shots did a bit more work.
As a necron player, I can attest that whenever I play Tau it's no contest. Not even fun. After the 2nd shooting phase you can usually just call it.
a fanart Aun shi defeated the silent king would be amazing
Watson returns! Love Michael's necron forces.
Always love these videos. Nick's energy is infectious. Michael was great too
I love the absolutely unbothered manner in which Mike throws his dice into the tray lol
Shas'o Nick + New Codex = Fun, Explosions, and Maniacal Laughter
Just love the visuals of these so much. Armies and table look so amazing that it really helps with the immersion
Great Show as always! Always impressed by the production quality of your stuff. Sadly, this was a pretty forgon conclusion for the Necrons. Michael worked his butt off, min maxed TWO seperate re-deploys. Pulled out every trick he could and still got tabled by the end of turn 3. F's in chat for the hard work Michael put into trying to compete with the new T'au Codex.
Ah the two factions that I love most going at it, nice!
Wow, this is some great filming, narration, production, graphics, feels more polished than a lot of other professional streams ive seen. Great work
This was so worth the wait! Hope to see Nick more often with his new T'au!
Aun'chi that madman did it! OMG!
friggin love you guys. Nobody even comes CLOSE to you guys in the battle report game.
I never thought I'd see the day where the voiceover cheers on splitting fire
I just can't belive that those battle reports keeps getting better and better :D This one was outstandingly entertaining!
The terrain in this game was both gorgeous to look at and seemed really tactical given the amount of shoot capability on the board. It's great to see you guys offer some really insightful games!
Always a god damn pleasure guys. No one can touch the quality of your battle reports. I would probably become a trembling addict if you guys started doing “AoS in 40m” 🤤🤤🤤 love from Alberta!
Tau vs Nerons is a tough matchup right now. Necro's just don't have enough damage to pump out what they need against them and running and all melee list is just as risky with the engagement range for Battlesuits. After T1 Tau there were virtually no assets left to use.
Behold! A faction that is meant to incredibly tough tabled in three turns. If this faction doesn't need a massive nerf, then no faction does.
I think this is the wrong train of thought. It means Necrons need a buff, not Tau need a nerf literally a month after an update. Tau just came out of being super rough to play. Every faction should be OP, rather than every faction being just okay
@@TheSeamonkeyBrigade A new codex is most likely to need a nerf. Unless you buff every faction after a new codex gets dropped, then you don't have a way to balance the game with codex creep. If you buff every army every time, then it starts getting ridiculous. Necron warriors reanimating on a 2+ while facing down Imperial Guard that hits on 3s sounds fun, it would be far too absurd.
@@DarthViperious I totally understand that, I’m just saying you’ve misconstrued the issue with this game in particular. This wasn’t a new codex vs new codex, it was a new codex vs and army in need of an update. Every army should be updated for 9th before nerfs happen, because once everything is on the same playing field then balancing can happen. Balancing a new rule set by an old rule set’s standards is counterproductive
Amazing battle!
It was great seeing Aun’shi and Shas’o kickass’o live up to their legendary reputations!
Fantastic battle report as always. It's fantastic
This was my favorite Tau battle that I've seen so far. As well as the best first turn for Tau ever
What a game Play On Tabletop! I love seeing these two armies fight! I have 18K pts of Tau and 16K pts of Necrons (base with no gear) and I love seeing both armies in action. Well done and thank you!
The quality of videos you guys put out blows my mind love you guys good job guys
Man you guys are the GOAT of battle reports now.
Amazing armies, amazing sets, amazing players and the editing the fluff out is great.
Also, I now can't watch anyone else who doesn't have a dice box.
Omg what a bloody awesome episode 👏 thanks guys you are the best keep up the good work
This is one of the coolest boards Ive ever seen. Love the bubble domes! Nice change from ruined cities!
The format and production is much improved!! The use of music is spot on too!
As always a Great necron strategist. Gj man
I wasn't even interested in the gamewhen i first started collecting, but you guys made it sound so fun and interesting. Thank you for this amazing content
This was so much fun! Love your work guys
Man, this battle mad me check out Deadly Print's Tyranids FXs and really makes me want to pick up official Tyranids to go with a new codex! I kind of want to see Tau vs. Tyranid ocne the new codex drops, a psychic 'nid list looks like it could be cool as hell psychic artillery against the conventional Tau gunlines.
A great game from start to finish! Both players were great, and it was a blast seeing all the models in action
This is going to be good with the new codex
Yeah Michael is back baby! Necrons represent! Posting this before watching the vid but win or lose I'm just happy to see robots vs mechs
Props to both players and their impressive armies! It was like watching an unstoppabke force and immovable object as the Tau dumped tons of fire into the Necrons only to see the angry metal space Egyptians roll with it without breaking a sweat. Excellent match!
My favourite two factions duking it out! Love it!
This freaking channel got me into the hobby, your videos are soooo good, thx for the huge effort u guys make to show how good this is to the newbs
Your very welcome! We enjoy it! Thanks for watching!
There's a Stormsurge. I'm happy.
There so good! Finally!
@@PlayOnTabletop Stormsurge has always been one of my all time favorite models. I'm so glad we don't get penalized so heavily for taking them.
After all the ork games, I am really happy to see some Tau. I missed Tau games. Still hoping for some Tau vs. Tau action. Also ...
Still Waiting for Space Marine Steve vs. Chaos Marine Steve Narrated by Steve. April 1st is coming soon. Maybe a fake mustache for the Chaos Marine Steve?
Petition! sign here!
I wish we had time for it. Would be so awesome!
Tau vs Tau would be an amazing battle report
@@JusNoBS420 Bruh. Whoever goes first wins as they'll delete half of the opponent's army in one shooting phase.
this is shaping up to be the year of Nick, and I am 100% here for it
This is just... Awesome. Love the matchup, the terrain, and the gameplay. T'au got an amazing codex.
loved it as always, love to some epic fights
Great battle. Really enjoyed seeing the Tau kick some ass
Nick is the kind of player I aspire to be: Just having a great time
That battle was sick. The T'au hit so hard!
Stormsurge : how many weapons do you want on your mech? YES!
Micheal, I have said it before and I'll say it again you got the best looking necron army I have seen! Very good painting my dude!
Hey nice stormsurge! Missing some of the red and arms of ours but tbh I love the amount of missiles it has!
Woot! Been waiting to see nick play tau with the new codex
Very well done! Great game and the music as well for this especially at the beginning was on point so so so good great editing 👍🤘
What a match best I've seen in a long time
Really fun way of making some of the terrain features out of fallen Tau mega-transport and of course the Manta edging the field. Very immersive!
My two favorite factions just going at it by my favorite players to watch!? This video was awesome and everything I needed today
Ah T'au, one of my favorite factions. Gonna be a good vid.
Great game my dudes! Always a pleasure to see Michael's Necrons on the field~
WATSON!!!!!
Awsome to see nick kick butt with some tau!
that was shockingly close, nice work mike
fun game to watch love the energy of both players and the announcer, well done
I gotta give major props to the map layout. Really feels like an airport I could imagine visiting, and not just a random collection of terrain.
What an amazing end to an amazing battle
Love seeing Tau finally able to do what they do, good shooting.
Well done to another excellent play on tabletop session
This was a great match! I loved that ending XD
Nick having a blast with T'au almost always is truly what made me finally give in and get T'au as my first army (in spite of the joke regarding T'au and over time learning how weak they were in the meta at the time). They just always seemed fun and have great underdog moments in their weak areas *cough* melee *cough*. I think it's also what lead me to making my army a bit more on the custom side.
A friend and I looked at a "servitor drone" picture I had found and we jokingly said what if I made my tau in space marine style, and then it wasn't a joke. I now have a tau army in ultramarine colors and it actually looks pretty cool (especially the fire warrior with their large pauldron with gold trim). Working on my stormsurge currently. The "justification" is they are a sort of "water caste detachment" meant for diplomatic security and whatnot (see senate guard of star wars), or that they are really bad infiltrators pretending to be ultramarines to gather info, but because quality of life seems to have gone up nobody really questions it and just lets them go along for now.
Always a pleasure to watch, and look forward to more shenanigans in the future. Thanks again for all you do
my two favorite factions going at it???? let's gooooo
That opening was almost how my first game went down, but I play farsight enclaves and my foe was Hive Fleet hydra. I lost in points but tabled the other guy with 2 models left.
That come back was awesome!
that ending was strait out of a movie.
The table was beautiful to behold
Amazing Battle, amazing battle report : )
That was an epic battle guys! FOR THE GREATER GOOD!!
Actually, I don't watch battlereports because I usually lose track of them quickly. But your videos are so extremely professional and well done, that was an extremely exciting 45 minutes! Thank you very much for that!
That was amazing. Great performance by both players. Always love to see Watson do what he does best 👌
Miss horribly - then promptly explode? I think his stardom has gone to his head.
Awesome battle beans 👍
Damn that was a great match. Both played well
I love the whole team don’t get me wrong, but Tyko’s narrating is far and away my favorite. I’m just listening while I clean my apartment and it’s totally captivating. Love this channel
Echt dufte was ihr da zusammen dängelt!
Great game! Great Video!
