​ @BattleGamesinMiddleEarth , Graeme and I travel to the Peak District, for the 2023 Scouring of Cheshire Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game tournament. Little did we know quite of sketchy this one would be...
I was taking Rivendell (with Game's Workshop's beautiful new Elrond) and Galadriel's Lothlorien. (just dropping in the word "Warhammer" and "Lord of the Rings" for SEO purposes).

Fab vid, I was also stuck in same jam following the crane fire. The vids have really made me 1 get on with some painting, 2 do a report, 3 get signed up to a comp and 4 stay in a hotel with a roaring log fire when there is snow on the ground. Really appreciate the time you take to put together the vids. Thanks

These were some great games 🙂 Nothing worse than only finding out filming equipment has messed up during editing... I know that pain all too well 😅 Go through the motions; denial, anger, depression, bargaining, acceptance. At this point I go straight to the 5th stage with a sprinkling of stage 2 when I tell the laptop to go "do" itself then back to 5 😂

Elves are so good against the Necromancer's Ringwraiths. The Elven blade worsening their resurrection roll by 1 is so, so helpful. In hindsight, how did you feel about your use of the Rivendell Cavalry and Elrond? I usually go the complete opposite direction and hold them behind infantry, then decide where I want to 'punch' with cavalry. There are some exceptions to this of course. I also think Wrath of Bruinen has improved dramatically by bringing the range down to 3 inches. Far easier to trigger it without anyone in range to resist. Great for surgical strikes.

Nice one again :) I just didn't got why you thought that in the 2nd game a 2 on both Brand and Elronds strikes would mean a match since an elven lord like Elrond obviously has a higher fight that a Man, namely F6 and your six would have therefore simply one you the combat? Also, in Game 3 I don't think your opponent can reroll with Durins Ring after you used Foresight points. I think he has to decide if he wants to do it before you decide if you use them.

Thanks so much! Yea, that got intense and it was great. I think the same as you. There were a few moments it came in handy on day one, but I think on day two it was a bit of a dud. I don't think I used it properly though, on day one I sent it off with Elrond and in one game it just turned him into an absolute tank and definitely made its points.

Awesome games. How come you didn’t just tie up the wraiths with the cheapest elves and send everything available at the necromancer? (Though, your approach clearly worked!)
@BattleCamperHome
@BattleCamperHome Жыл бұрын
Thank you. Its a good question! By the time I felt I had the wraiths under control, Gildor was actually doing a pretty stellar job annoying the necromancer haha. I was worried about the Wraiths beating elves one on one, and then being able to outnumber me on the objective. But I certainly think I could have done as you say and made the Necromancer less of a threat.

Nice pair of vids bro makes me wanna save for a camper so i can tour tourneys! Your list is cool but bro i think you are splitting up badly. Putting knights on one side and Noldorin on the other is cool, but if you engage on one side then those guys are dead meat and the other guys can't do anything. I think u should skirmish backwards when your oponenet thinks you will charge to give yourself an extra turn pull the other flank back to the middle. Btw love the level of detail you give for move and combat etc 10/10 editing.

Hey, thanks for watching. Indeed it can! Rule reads: This power targets one enemy model within range. The caster may move the target model up to half of its maximum Move distance. They can do this even if the model has already moved this turn. The move cannot force the target to jump, leap, climb, dismount or lie down, but can take them into difficult terrain, and even make them Charge an enemy. No Courage test is required to Charge Terror-causing foes!
