Finally a clan on clan battle! It always seems like the IS side with the having the lower BV has an advantage in a clan vs IS match. Glad to see the Ghost Bear crushing the clan drug kitties

Dan beat Aaron like Aaron owed him money, ruthless. Love it!!

Definitely been missing the AS BatReps! Big fan of CNC and CGB, so this is very enjoyable so far.

DFA - another great mission and batrep. Dan, congrats on the W! So, the Warhawk pilot name is Felix 'Lucky' Snuka and the Warhammer pilot name is Mjollnir 'Hammer' MacKenzie. All legitimate Ghost Bear bloodnames. I did enjoy watching the Clan on Clan fight. Aaron, boom or bust on the dice rolls. I agree, the Black Lanner would have changed the initial dynamics even with Dan's dominance on the initiative rolls. The Night Cow totally underperformed, I think it scored one point of damage and did a poor job of being a meat shield for Aaron's left flank. Dan did a good job of getting the Warhammer into medium range fairly early on and did a great job maneuvering the Warhawk to focus down the Nova Cat while limiting damage; Felix Snuka is a survivor.

Thanks for bringing back alpha strike! Keep them coming. On turn 2 the nova cat rolled a 12, that's a through armor crit!

So glad to see you guys coming back to Alpha Strike!! Great batrep! Congrats on the win, Dan. Keep the Alpha Strike coming!

Glad to see another AS report! I'm an unabashed Smoke Jaguar fan. I hate the Cats for selling out the Jaguars. The Combine didn't go far enough in the 3140s to stamp them out. That said, I root for the Nova Cats more than I root for almost anybody whenever they go up against the Ghost Bears. Also, Peace of Blake be with you and all the heretics watching this video. Break out your SPF 5000, cuz we're coming for you nonbelievers!

Thank you for posting these videos. I didn't know this was still a relevant board game, but I do remember playing it in the late 90's I might have been 9 or 10. It would be fun to get into again.

All right! A Clan on Clan fight to the finish! As a die hard Spheroid, I do have a question though... Who do you root for when both sides are terrible? 😁 This was fun! Keep up the great work guys!

i've been missing these alpha strike batreps! keep em coming, you guys rule!!!

Battlereport on the main screen! In this solem matter may none interfere. Seyla!

"I hate clan mechs. No, I love clan mechs. No wait, I hate them again." LOL, Aaron you crack me up. I admit I was rooting for the Ghost Bears only because the kickstarter forced me to pick a clan and they were who I went with. New scenery also looks awesome. I really like those pipelines. Were they 3D printed? You guys have such high production quality in your videos, it's a crime that you don't have more subs. Hang in there, I think 10k will happen soon. Cheers gentlemen!

Whatever you changed with the miniature footage at the start is a huge improvement. Good job.

I'm watching these old-to-new, and it's very interesting to see the development of tactics. Yall Is very entertaining.

Amazing batrep, the production quality is mind blowing! So glad to see more Alpha Strike 😃

Despite it's Smoke Jag origins, the Warhawk has always been one of my favorite Clan assaults, and that mini looks freakin' amazing. Love the white paint job.

Great Alpha Strike Battle! Congrats to Dan! Dan and Thom had some outstanding painted mechs. The Dice lords have forsaken Aaron. Maybe Aaron needs to do some ritual to regain his Dice Mojo.Looking forward to more videos.

Loved the battle report as always, guys. Dan got a win! Warhammer IIC finally made an in game appearance and got a win! I would like to think that the Star Commander was in the Warhammer IIC, and made good on her proclamation, by blowing out the Timber Wolf's candle with the final shots. Remember folks, it is not arrogance if you can back it up! I could hear and feel Aaron deflating like a salty whoopie cushion when seeing what a monster the Warhammer IIC is. Still #2 on the Battlytics charts, with only the Dire Wolf A topping it! Well played though. Enjoyed watching the whole thing. Also looking forward to the 2nd Wargames album to launch.

Keep them coming guys. Your content just keeps getting better. Love Clan vs Clan action. On a side note: burn some fluffy pink dice to appease the dice gods. 😁

It's awesome to see some Ghost Bear and Nova Cat mechs on the field! Although, I would totally opt out of the pilot die idea. Seeing it come up as a one would be horrifying. Just roll 3 pairs of dice all at once, then pair them up.

Glad to see alpha strike again and hoping to see some massive combined arms battles where alpha strike really shines

Great to see a new AS bat rep. Really enjoyed this keep up the good work

Love your intro segments! Also a big fan of Ghost Bears and Nova Cats.

Hard fight. Awesome game!

Great game guys. Would love to see a rematch where you use the black Lanner and see if that tactic wins the day

What a bloodbath! This one seemed like it was over from the start, the early 2v2 fight just did not go Aaron's way, and that was really the end of it. Terrible shooting on the Nova Cat's part. I still prefer Destiny to AS, but this fight definitely still had some flavor to it.

This was a fun one. Though I really miss combined arms in alpha strike. Some BA support might have made a big difference in controlling those objectives. Congrats to Dan! Oh, and the voice acting at the beginning was really good once again. You've found some real pros!

Glad to see ghost bear win this one!

Hell yeah new battle report

Love the BATREPs! 😄

Great game as usual, and really nice board set up.

Praise be the Word of Blake!

Finally getting a chance to sit and watch the whole battle without pausing or stopping. Love looking at those buildings, and just wish I had a 3D printer which could manage them. (The one I have access to with a friend is FDM and he's not sure most of the Hardware models will print well with it.) The gravel as scatter terrain is a nice touch for the camera, did it count as rough terrain or something during the combat? I'm gathering there's not all too many alterations to Alpha Strike base rules here: - The change to range bracket modifiers, and adding Extreme. This seems like it permits long-range 'Mechs to start shooting earlier even if they're at a sizable disadvantage to hit. As well as the mentioned +1 at Short (3"?) making it a little less of a sure thing. - The 'variable damage' and pilot die. I do love this rule (or pair of rules) and plan on introducing it to the table. I wonder if how well this sort of "pilot die" thing works for CBT? Though that ruleset is remarkably sensitive to tinkering, I've found, have to be cautious. I'm not sure if I'm missing many others which are custom/altered rules. Planning on showing this video to sort of illustrate how AS plays out to my brother so we can give it a try after we finish out our CBT campaign. :) Rough luck for Clan Nova Cat, but maybe they just were Spirit Cats which had done too many drugs before being returned to the Clan proper.

Not sure if this is a new feature, but I loved the rotating green screen close ups of the mechs at the start of the video. I mean, the rest of the video was cool too I guess.

alpha strike too save my day thx guys

Great Star v Star action. Thanks a lot for the BatRep!

Alpha strike fantastic 👍

The GB win ratio remains high. Makes me not regret siding with the Care Bears.

Love the Battle Reports!

that was a fun game to watch,looking forward for more

Very good BatRep, looking forwards to seeing you all run a new campaign someday, keep it going ya'll.

Love it!

Aaron, you need to burn some sage and give some good energy to those yellow pilot dice... they're consistently giving you the stink eye...

For a REAL Nove Cat experience, mix up some LSD with peyote tea thirty minutes before the game! Love the paint jobs and well played!

Ghost Bear! Ghost Bear! Ghost Bear!

I like the rolling per damage but it also increases the chance for crita

Definitely TPK. But a good battle

Alpha strike! Lets goooo!

They help the smoke Jaguars redeem themselves so I always fine clan nova cat with honor.

Nice one! I like it! 👍 But… what about Kevin?

Always fun with big mechs, lots of damage being flung around on both sides!

Time to retire those yellow dice!

It feels like Aaron sent a sibko instead of veterans for this fight.

Hey Death From Above Wargaming Team, I love your Alpha Strike houserules and my friends and me use most of them. We also developed alternative Weapon houserules to use weapons like PPC, all kinds of Lasers and Gauss Rifles. Because we thought this fast paced Game also needs some alternate weapon Love. If you want me to share, just tell me. Nice Battlereport. Keep it up you guys

Team Spirit Cat and Sea Fox

You sure that isn't Comstar clan mechs 👀

I dislike Clan Nova Cat because the guy playing them called Delta Galaxy a second line force! (Kidding). I am just a big CGB player, if an Omni Trinary and Elemental Binary of my own and my Discord pic in Camospecs is not clue enough. Awesome game, thanks for another project well done.

Night Gyr is named after the Gyrfalcon, not a cow lol. I'd still take a Warhawk over that particular falcon o7

Yet another match that seems to have been largely decided by initiative rolls...

Where did you get that Warhammer model it's amazing

Madcat turn 6 should have been dead because -1 tmm with the motive hit

I also think that both sides should have had a faster unit with tmm 3 or 4

You big deceivers! I was promised a Battletech:Destiny BatRep (as per the thumbnail), but got Alpha Strike instead! That's nearly Capellan-treachery levels of evil! 😜 Just kidding, every DFA BatRep is a good BatRep. 🐺🤟

Yeh fully who would play Word of Blake ? Well at least a Clan force is actually going to get a win on the board ....... because they're fighting other Clanners lol

Still sad we never see any classic bt anymore. Alpha Strike and Destiny lack the detail I enjoy from Classic.

Nice. The non-sensical Jihad killed BT. stay clear. Lol

3068 was jihad, classic era doesn't end until end of fed com war in 3067

That pilot die mechanic makes no sense. Yeah, it speeds things up but it makes that single pilot dice waaaaay to important. And no, the statistics don’t work out. The distribution curve is very scewed when compared to the normal rolls.
