My daughter loves to paint and while she's still a little young for the actual game, I gave her a few spare termaguants that I had and she instantly fell in love with them. Her uncle saw this and got her a Hive Tyrant for Christmas and after we built the winged version, she spend hours flying it around the house making munching noises.... XD Not sure if she has the patience for a Batrep yet, but I'll bookmark this one for the future to be sure. :D

33:37 I thought the Hive Tyrant was on the other side of that objective at the end of Ultramarine turn 2? That was the whole point of moving the Suppressors there; to hold the objective but not allow a heroic intervention. Casual game, so doesn't really matter, but it would be points the Tyranids don't score that turn.

Okay, you got me with the Rahul bait, I'm subscribing. If this channel is good enough for Hollywood's Bad Boy it's good enough for me. I haven't played since 3rd edition so this all now seems incredibly foreign to me, especially the idea of not having to kill every single unit. As a former Khorne player it's just.. beyond my comprehension. But it's interesting to see how things have changed and it's always heartwarming when new people get introduced to the lust for war and death and skulls that lives in all our hearts. Such wholesomeness.

@TheThezenith Жыл бұрын

honestly I feel like this combat patrol game is a really rough match up. No real answers to that Hive Tyrant. And Whilst I do rate infiltrators and Eliminators, I think the rest of the box is really lack luster, mean while the Tyranid Combat Patrol is imo one of the best. Idk about competitively but as a casual player I think all of the Tyranid box is actually really quite good barring the Rippers, and they are like 45 points and have some use as little objective grabbers. I've been playing for 6 or 7 years as Marines and even against a brand new beginner I would feel pretty intimidated by this match up

@Aargo999 Жыл бұрын

Really, i think not putting the suppressor shots into the tyrant 7s v 7t and using that lieutenant for wound rerolls to potentially dodge the charge (slower via damage chart) and then overwatch to keep the chance up is the big missed move. The other termies would take back the vacated objective anyway

@deaddin3866 Жыл бұрын

@@Aargo999 there were a lot of misplays that Steve should have been guiding Rahul around. Eliminators hit on 2+ not 3’s if stationary. Should have been spending more rerolls on failed saves earlier. Focus firepower on big bugs that are dangerous. Steve is too used to 2k games.

Good first entry lesson! Sometimes your opponent won't show up with the exact minis on their list. Remember we're playing with toy soldiers. Don't take it too serious. Maybe don't let a Gun Drone replace a Stormsurge or something similar, but saying "Oh this tank is actually this other tank, I just built it wrong because the instructions were confusing," is fine. Most players have assembled a model then realized they fudged it about 4 glue steps back.
