      A CP reroll he didn't need to make. Lancers cannon does 1d6 + 3 damage each. After the Lancer reroll it was 3+3+6+1= 13 when I went to school Nick, not 11.

    The battle rep was awesome, but something I noticed. I believe the shadowsword has devastating wounds against vehicles so at 23:37 Nick’s 6 to wound just flat out killed the lancer and Tak didn’t need to use a CP on the reroll attempt on 4+ invu

    • @PlayOnTabletop

    • @joshuataylor5080
      @joshuataylor5080 Рік тому +6

      @thehappyfaceproducts 100% disagree. The only luck he got all game was the Shadow sword explosion AND HE DIDN'T EVEN ROLL THAT SIX!
      The number of times Nick brought back units, nailed his feel no pains, and rolled mortal wounds was absolutely nutty.
      Poor Tak got next to no charge rolls that mattered in the mid board and Omega objective, kept rolling low on his advances, and had to use a double re-roll to kill the shadow sword because he rolled DOUBLE ONES on damage.

    • @anvos658
      @anvos658 8 місяців тому +3

      Technically speaking like Guard its not a rez, but pulling in reinforcements. Also kind of depends how much the map and army composition lets their opponent hunt the blips. This one was pretty much an example of how oppressive it can be when the map and objectives let them hide the blips in safety and still be useful.
