My son and I started playing WH 40k back in mid 2000's. A few years ago, just before AOS I started looking into WHFB as the game looked more interesting than 40k. I was very sorry to see WHFB cancelled. It is a very rich game with many nuances. I hope that sometime in the future WHFB will be revived.

Awesome looking armies, but maybe have the scenery spread out. its too easy if you have an empty middle. Also, at 7:01, how was the High Elf bolt thrower able to shoot at the Doom Diver? From the screenshot at the timestamp it looks like the goblins are blocking it. Wouldn't it hit the goblins in front of it?

@MrGreed0706 жыл бұрын
That was some typical orcish artillery! Nice to see a big game. If you pass terror you still have to take a fear teast, as its taken in a different phase, Steve. Don't forget that orcs are +1S first round of combat. Probabally would've still gotten slaughtered. The rest is elementry, but scouts align towards the charger right? so the chariot coul've overrun into a boltthrower if he so wished.
@Nergling6 жыл бұрын
I love the randomness of Orc armies though, half of your stuff falls apart, the other half that makes it into combat might kill your lads instead of the enemy and the less said about Fanatics the better!

Would you be interested in large scale narrative battles?
@thomassaxon82546 жыл бұрын
Those are definitely fun. To be honest, narrative battles in general are to me what Fantasy was always about, not the competitive smash down games that are more often shown here. Creating rules or adapting scenarios to try to tell a story or a campaign, similar to the Ork versus Inquisition game that Steve did on his own channel, or the Inquisitor Eisenhorn I think it was against Chaos? That's Fantasy to me. So yes, to answer your question in brief.
@Nergling6 жыл бұрын
I hear you loud and clear mate, I love a good story driven battle! I always collected my armies with story or a theme in mind rather than for any battle winning strategy. I always thought that people building competitive tournament style armies killed the fun of the whole thing...

Orcs and goblins can be unstoppable with some luck. I wouldn't put all the fanatics in 1 unit if possible and when released, don't aim so close to each other. Should also put black orc leaders in the units. Doesn't cost much in points and eliminates all animosity roles so might have been worth losing a few goblins or a squig

When the giant swung at the spearmen, why didn't you pull the dead from the front right where they would have been killed? If not at least for visual effect. Can you do a stop motion version with sound effects and low angle shots? With cool sports game graphics and stat reviews of characters and squads. Espn meets 40k. Btw, this is so cool!!!

Such a bullshit move ditching Fantasy. Kinda saw it coming as the quality over the last couple of months has been poor. Very disappointed that someone who always talks about how much they 'love' Fantasy [Steve] was pushing for it to get binned. If I was to guess I would say a lot of it was down to how long it took to film the batreps [and needing to read rules], and I really feel for you as rolling dice and moving models around is really hard. Vault membership cancelled; I'm sure someone who genuinely cares about keeping this awesome game alive will step up and I'll give them my money instead. Kids play AoS. Kids don't have bank accounts.

Toby Hall it might be a time thing or possibly finding people to play against. I know some people still play it, I did for years, but the scene has been dying pretty rapidly, at least in London, which is a big city. Ultimately they are a business so they have to maximise there potential earnings, each game probably takes a day to setup, film and edit.

@goldengoosed15746 жыл бұрын
Toby Hall stop being such a child. Look at the numbers this video has less than 5k views and has been up for ~10 hours as of me writing this comment. Meanwhile their last 40k video which has been up for ~24 hours has 4x the amount of views it doesn't take a mathematician to see where the numbers are. They're a business first and foremost and they have to pay for all the expenses that come with being a business. So if a particular series isn't bringing the numbers (I.e vault memberships and ad revenue) to become profitable then yeah they're going to cut it. It makes perfect sense from a business perspective they did the same thing when they dropped Infiniti a few years back.
