The tale Shasi Kik'aso shall be immortalized in poems and song. The one lone Tau who fought off a horde of demons and dying with a Martini in his hand. Like a true Tau its shaken not stirred.
Considering the oversized models don't get to see much play as a group in most games, this was exciting to watch, since each individual unit was so much more deadly and beautiful on the board.
Didn’t like the erratic cuts. It was extreme and Pointless in this episode. Show the dice result or not but don’t cut on the dice to cut away half a second before they stop falling.
Had it not been for PlayOnTabletop I would never had gotten into 40k. loved the lore, but the gameplay on table just seemed so much work. you guys make it look fun and easy! love this! Never stop this channel! :)
Absolutely! Takes the sting of losing out when you’re having that much fun. Haha. And agreed tau are in dire need of a new codex. They’re a fun faction to watch and play but need a serious reworking
Some say, on moments of silence travelling the stars, you can still hear his battle cry echo through the void, ever fighting back the wave of chaos seeking to devour the empires citizens.
@@tawnykyle-cm5eq Nick built out all the shooting effects that are used. The sequence and assets are passed around from editor to editor depending on the show being cut together.
Dang, can't wait to see the battle on the beautiful board. Also, the fact that Nick, who is probably one of the most positive and passionate people I've ever met, and the reason I actually decided to start collecting Warhammer 40k minis (T'au to be precise) is taking part in this battle is amazing. For the greater good!
@@khorneflakes4446 They had a nid army in their video on the latest release of Apocalypse, but whos it was, idk. ua-cam.com/video/XvmZ5UXdj34/v-deo.html
I don’t normally comment on too many UA-cam videos but I HAD to comment here. Between this and the narrative battles, y’all are putting out so much high quality content. That was genuinely one of the most exciting battle reports I’ve ever watched, PLEASE do more of these special battles.
All those Daemons surrounding that Shas'o Kickass'o is giving me mad Doomslayer vibes, like I can hear "The only thing they fear is you" or "BFG Division" from that one part of the board lol
You all always present amazing armies on beautiful boards, and the episodes are consistently well edited to be 40-50 mins of great fun! Thanks for all the hard work and positivity you bring to the hobby!
Wow, just fantastic. I really love the Creature Caster Blood-Thirster, she was hot ;). Also, the change in some of the graphics was neat, I am glad we're getting more graphics too.
Brilliant episode, the editor did a cracking job. You can see the anime influence in some of the edits. Can't wait to see more custom models in future battles!
The Points say he lost, but that the Splitshots worked made him Win for me. Nick, I'm going to dedicated every split shot to you from now on that was Amazing hahaha. FOR THE GREATER GOOD!!
I have to admit my favorite part is the big handshake and good luck. The last few games I've played at my LGS opponents have put me down, insulted me, and quit when they started losing or got more aggressive when winning. It's kind of put me off playing for a while, so that's sad, but this game makes me happy.
This may be the singularly best battle report I've ever seen. Player rapport, silliness, gorgeous models. It personifies the best of what this hobby brings "to the table"
This was really cool to watch and to see how you guys have done it. I think that maybe you should do this again, as it sounds and looks really fun. However, for the next one, maybe it's knights vs nids?
I really like both of these dudes. By far the most fun hosts on your chanel. Not competitively minded at all, but I enjoy the way they just "play". Very refreshing, thank you!
probably the best batrep yet! awesome board, great cinematic plays, and amazing energy from the players. was rooting for the tau the whole time, but damn if it wasn't exciting to watch! nice job guys!
I love what your team is doing. For as much skill and production value as you guys put out, what is at the forefront is your absolute passion for the hobby and community. As someone who is more new to 40k and tabletop gaming, every time Play On puts out a new video, I go straight back to painting that model I've been working on or reading the codex again because I get that excited for my next battle. Keep it up!
Nick and Tycho are always fun and positive and make games enjoyable, having them together is fun and chaotic. I can''t believe split fire finally worked for Nick, it's a dream come true.
This themed battle report was just awesome. Incredible minis, fantastic terrain and great casters and editing as always. Please do more episodes like this
Amazing armies, figures and battle report! Not only a great production but very entertaining. PD: Excellent idea of separating each phase in the video.
this was amazing and a delight to watch. this is the pinnacle of Warhammer 40k gaming. every time I watch your videos its just pure entertainment and highlights the good of the 40k community and what everyone in the community should strive to be like. never stop fighting never stop rolling. Fight hard Fight well Fight forever.
"Play On Tabletop" is the best. Probably the easiest to watch and most digestible battle reps out there. I only wish they had more content to watch. But with the quality of there content I understand it takes time.
I know, right! We want to watch this with you all now! But, this does let people work it into their schedule and hopefully that means watching with many gamers.
I can't wait for this awesome battle to start it's going to be so much fun. Can the next battle be a 10,000 point battle with orks. Please Orks Orks Orks Orks Waaaaaaaagh!!!
a 40k battle report with well thought out camera work that doesn't make me puke in 2mins and it was a fun game to watch too ! wow! you guys just earned a sub
This was absoluetly amazing. I didnt get the chance to play myself yet, since i started collecting and painting deep into the pandemic last year, but you guys make it look so incredibly fun.
The amount of Command Rerolls Tycho throws out in a single phase is just insane. Seams as you don't have to obide to the rules if you are chaos itself :D
Very happy to see this. Really enjoyed it. I'm also happy to find out that Mont'Ka is only once per game. I thought it was just an ability the Tau had, like free overwatch.
I'm soooo glad I came across this today by accident. Love the energy and love the format for how it's presented. It's like real sports but for Warhammer for the tabletop!!! Don't change and keep the coolness going 😎👍
How can one not give this a thumbs up? You guys rock! And thanks for keeping me inspired. Always watch your vids when I paint, to get me in the zone. And this time the scenery just blew everything out of the water. Who knew a tropic island scene would work so well?

Amazing miniatures I especially love the Queen of Onslaught, that is just such a beautiful model.
The queen of onslaught wishes to punch whoever is calling her a guy.
@@theinquisitionsparrot6749 She might also suggest that person would need a new pair of glasses.
Unbelievably good models, and the paint jobs...
My dream matchup for episode 2: Orks Vs Tyranids. Hoping to see the carnage unfold!
The tale Shasi Kik'aso shall be immortalized in poems and song. The one lone Tau who fought off a horde of demons and dying with a Martini in his hand. Like a true Tau its shaken not stirred.
That guy is really "the greater good" the mesiah.
I'm gonna name first T'au commander like him in is honor
More like Kick asso
Drinks shall be raised in his name.
That riptide with the laser sword is just farsight after he watched Gundam and realized his suit wasn’t big enough
Lol, good one.
Lol so true
Lol

"oh no, I've taken one wound *of 30.*
"Well it's not 30 anymore!"
Love the banter
Gotta love a witty retort.
This is basically turning 40k into a skirmish game with oversized models. Love it.
Considering the oversized models don't get to see much play as a group in most games, this was exciting to watch, since each individual unit was so much more deadly and beautiful on the board.
@@aznperson8 For the Tau at least. All those demons are mean AF.
@@aznperson8 For the Tau at least. All those demons are mean AF.
@@aznperson8 AND STILL WHIFFED ALL THE TIME :') it was hilarious at times.
I'd watch a series of these skirmish style games with a monster battle theme any day of the week tbh.
Can we all just acknowledge how much more epic the effects get season by season and sometimes even from ep to ep? Bravo to the post-production!
Didn’t like the erratic cuts. It was extreme and Pointless in this episode. Show the dice result or not but don’t cut on the dice to cut away half a second before they stop falling.
Imagine being a regular tau warrior in all this chaos
KICKASSO
FOR THE GREATER.. (*stomp*)
I’m taking a long vacation afterwards that’s for sure
Welp. Nevermind. I just got to 13:28.
My favorite battle report channel is doing a game with my favorite faction themed around my favorite movie. This is going to be awesome.
As long as its pasicif rim 1 style... Not the abomination that is 2 lol.
@@GundamReviver it was ok ish na bo its was kinda bad
@@GundamReviver amen
Had it not been for PlayOnTabletop I would never had gotten into 40k.
loved the lore, but the gameplay on table just seemed so much work.
you guys make it look fun and easy! love this! Never stop this channel! :)
These kind of comments are amazing and keep us going. Thank you so much!
100% agree! 40k was so daunting before but these guys make it look like the joyride it is!
They make it look fun and easy because they cut the real time play of 2-6 hours down to 40 minutes.
That's great! What army have you chosen?
Was rooting for Nick. And the fact that a split fire worked for him...he won forever
That was immensely satisfying to see, what a play! You have to loves players who play for fun and can do excellent mimes and noises
I'm a bit sad for nick though. Tau should really get a New codex soon.
100%
Absolutely! Takes the sting of losing out when you’re having that much fun. Haha. And agreed tau are in dire need of a new codex. They’re a fun faction to watch and play but need a serious reworking
@@flippyn1 I cry myself to sleep at night, the horror of new power armour releases haunts my dreams.

We salute you, Kickasso. You will be missed. And also the guy with the dead brother and sister, I guess.
We don't get why Nick's T'au go on to war with their families all the time. Must be a T'au thing.
@@PlayOnTabletop Bonding ritual. All are family in the fire caste.
@@PlayOnTabletop This is done to increase the soldiers' morale.
I just want to congratulate whoever is in charge of the special effects, its a small thing but the visual experience certainly improves tenfold

I agree fellow member of the greater good!
I havent gotten around to making a tau army yet but I do have a soft spot for them
same, man
Nick's passion for Tau and his positive energy on screen is the same reason i've started a Tau army :D
NICK FOR TAU EMERPOR!
Ah yes Fellow Followers of the greater good
My dream come true. Please tell me next battle is Knights vs Monster Tyranids list
They have a warlord titan. They have to use it more often
Yes! Seeing a game with a hierophant would be amazing.

The Riptides experimental energy sword awoke things within me.
Yeah..fear
Did it actually achieve... anything though?
Check out the sword on the Perfect Strike and Destiny Gundams.
@@soulboost964 It's less the sword itself and more the fact that it's on a T'au model.
I know right? But can’t have melee Tau at *all* because I guess Tau only get to play 2 phases of a 5 phase game......
This might be the most enjoyable battle report I've ever watched. So much excitement and fun for both players
Crazy high energy, made it very fun to watch.
I don’t normally comment on too many UA-cam videos but I HAD to comment here. Between this and the narrative battles, y’all are putting out so much high quality content. That was genuinely one of the most exciting battle reports I’ve ever watched, PLEASE do more of these special battles.

The end! The end was fantastic! I get so hyped screaming with Nick "for the greater good!" Too! this man knows how to entertain!
*chaos* tau in melee this won't take long
*kickasso* I WILL HOLD THE LINE FOR THE GREATER GOOD!
Sha'so Kik'aso was literally just as cool as the titanic duel lol XD
This is my favorite tau channel
Awww. Thanks! Wait? Tau channel...
You all always present amazing armies on beautiful boards, and the episodes are consistently well edited to be 40-50 mins of great fun! Thanks for all the hard work and positivity you bring to the hobby!
How can you not just get, like, unreasonably excited about this battle? My favourite episode yet!
Glad it could live up to the hype.
Man can’t wait, for this
I think everyone agrees that we need a Pacific Grim Part 2!!!
I think it would be cool with imperial knights and a crusher stampede tyranid list.
"I think it gives you an extra inch in Charge"
6 in warm waters 😏
2700 points?! Thats the biggest battle (except apocalypse) on your chanel yet! Super excited, cant wait!
These have to be some of the coolest models on one of the coolest tables I've ever seen.
Don't you love it when it all comes together perfectly. We do.
That riptide got a spear?!?!?
Why not!?
@@PlayOnTabletop LMAO
Loving the ship reference haha
that ending with the riptide getting two demons at once-Nick must be so happy split firing actually worked for once!
I swear Nick is the only person who can look cool while playing tau
Loved it! Also loved how tau nick got a multi kill at the very end :D
Wow, just fantastic. I really love the Creature Caster Blood-Thirster, she was hot ;).
Also, the change in some of the graphics was neat, I am glad we're getting more graphics too.
The final stand then escape hahahaha brilliant, lives the tell the epic tale to his people
Nick always gets so excited when something blows up, doesn't matter whose thing blows up it is the joy of explosions.
Brilliant episode, the editor did a cracking job. You can see the anime influence in some of the edits. Can't wait to see more custom models in future battles!
Nick and Tycho exemplify the people I love playing with and against.... it's all about the fun 😁 smiles all around! 👍👍
Absolutely great. A treat to see the tau but with these beautiful models and large battles this was absolutely amazing
J.T. You are one awesome voice and narrator. You opening intro was fantastic especially the 40K in 40 minutes part
That creature caster model for Kairos is by far the coolest and most demonic one of the bunch. So cool!
two massive armies, two massive personalities, one amazing game
Tau Nick Froese is one of the coolest people in 40k as far as I'm concerned. Any Video with Nick is good times.
That is, without question, the most amazing game I have ever seen. Thank you all for such an experience
I didn’t think about charging as I only have 1 monster unit, but now I think about that it’s very smart! Kudos nick!
Nick is the single best thing about Play on tabletop
The Points say he lost, but that the Splitshots worked made him Win for me. Nick, I'm going to dedicated every split shot to you from now on that was Amazing hahaha.

Table looks dope. Chaos models also look interesting.
Instant like because you used Creature Caster models! Also, this is perhaps your best video yet!
This was really cool to watch and to see how you guys have done it. I think that maybe you should do this again, as it sounds and looks really fun. However, for the next one, maybe it's knights vs nids?
Knights versus Nids would be pretty epic. We do own three Bio Titans as well as a Reaver and Warlord Titan. I think a Warhound somewhere too.

Well there is Monsterpocalpyse, they have over a dozen factions, each with their own mechs or kaiju
And there is Pacific Rim Extinction
Damn play on, why you gotta tease us with this battle for 2 days 😤
