same here, losing the captain like this was a shame. Search for cover und keep your head down low. Don't die stupidly :D The captain alive at the target terrain would be 3 points for capturing the terrain piece, 3 points for keeping your captain alive with no wounds taken and would have denied the opponent 3 points for killing the target hero. Thew the game away with one movement mistake 😬😂

Hahaha I am glad I could get that level of hype! The good thing is because Glorfindel botched his combat it wouldn't have changed the result but dismounting and going prone is a super sneaky tactic that even veteran players might not think of I am definitely going to look out for that next time I really need to keep someone safe

Great report guys. Only one thing I noticed: according to new FAQ, when a siege engine hits a combat it has to be rolled like a shooting attack, instead it was played as a straight it into the target, which did some damage that Brodie may have avoided. EDIT: My bad, I guess the game was recorded before the FAQ.

A previous FAQ in armies of Lord of the Rings describes how dwarf ballistae work, and they have exactly the same rule (piercing shot) as the Isengard one. And for that you have to roll to see who is hit, but everyone in the combat takes a S9 hit, it is just the person actually hit who gets flung.

Great batrep, I'm looking forward to teh other batreps. I do have some rules questions regarding this game: - Shouldn't the ballista need an in-the-way test for the rocks when it was shooting on the captain? As this is a rock, it might have even been a 5+ to get past it or did I miss something? - Shouldn't the game keep on for 1 extra turn because you only start to roll for it in a turn at in which 1 force has been broken at the start of the turn. As this is a knock out event, how will you treat a tie? Thanks in advance
@CapitanCorner
@CapitanCorner 2 жыл бұрын
yeah the ballista shot could have one in the way but not 100%. As a viewer we can't check line of sight. Maybe from the top of the ballista it was clear line of sight. Otherwise it's a clear oversight and almost game breaking if the captain wouldn't die because the shot of the ballista would hit the rock 😂
@CapitanCorner
@CapitanCorner 2 жыл бұрын
Regarding the ending condition of the game, again we can't count precisely as a viewer, but in seems like it was the second round for the elves bering broken. Therfore at the beginning of the turn the elves where broken, did test courage and moved. At the end of the turn the a 2 was rolled and the game ended. Maybe the courage test where cut out because the last elves all made it. With courage 5, 6 and 7 its not a surprise :D

Thanks for the comment! Constantin was right about the Ballista line of sight. We drew line of sight from the tip of the Ballista and because the rocks were low it had a clear shot. The good thing is that even if the captain had survived the result would not have changed. If I recall correctly the elves had been reduced to 50% of there models the turn before and then this was there first turn of being broken. This might have just gotten missed in the filming. I have no idea what we will do if there is a tie hahahah. Maybe the player with the most points still alive in there army? What do you think

@@ConquestCreations Thanks for the answer. There are several options to solve a tie. Some things that come to my mind are: - The player with more kills made by his general will win (although this might be a bit unfair as this might have influenced the list building process) - A certain win condition is marked as being the primary mission. However completes this mission first wins (for example the player who gets the first mini over the opponent's board edge in recon) - In case of a tie you keep playing additional turns until there is a winner - You could choose let's say 6 secondary missions that decide a tie. Ideally these missions are split into an easy, a normal and a hard part to avoid a 2nd tie

Absolutely fantastic! And one question: 12:05 wait... To Hit - okay, Scatter - okay, but... why didn't they roll for In The Way to see, if the Rivendell Knight or that Uruk-hai he was fighting against was the initial hit? If an arrow hits a fight you must first resolve, which one of the participants was hit. They just assumed, the Rivendell Knight had been hit automatically... Am I right that this is a mistake or is it really so in the rules?

Awesome video, one thing though: I may have this wrong, but the Uruk Hai cap only kills 1 elf @14:00, and then moves again, but didnt he charge both elves? And at 14:55, Brody says the knight backs away towards the warrior in order to exchange the banner. Can he do that though? A model MUST back away in a straight as possible line from the model he was in combat with, right? There was plenty of room to do so. Not not picking you guys, just trying to see if I got my rules right

1) It seems to me that the Uruk-hai Captain and his supports would have taken the other elf down, too (though not 100% sure). If this is the case, they just forgot to remove the other elf as a casualty. 2) A model must back away in a straight line but it doesn't have to be directly away. Example: Let's say warrior 1 and Warrior 2 are fighting. Warrior 1 is directly north of Warrior 2. Warrior 1 loses and has to back away. He can back away (a) due east, (b) due west, or (c) in any other angle in between. Start of fight: 1 2 (a) 1 2 (b) 1 2 I hope that explains the back away rule.

Siege engines are disgusting and the legion ballista even more so. I think Brodie played that really well getting his captain on the objective all alone and then siege weapons being God tier just instantly swung everything the other way. To me what happened there is a place where the rules don't really make sense. The point of a siege weapon is it's inaccurate which is why it only hits its intended target on a roll of a 6. But when there are no other models nearby suddenly its pinpoint accurate and only misses that exact guy on a 1. I would like to see a rule where maybe 2-3 is you pass it off as you would now but if there are no suitable targets (other than the initial) its a miss and if u get 4-5 then u pass it off exactly as u would now in the rules so the lone guy would get hit. It shouldnt be easier to be accurate shooting at one man compared to an entire battle line.

huge mistake by Rivendell player having his Captain go for the terrain piece. While the terrain grab would be worth 3 pts, he gave away 6 guaranteed points (+3 for him keeping the Captain alive, and -3 pts for his opponent for denying him killing the Captain). ... If he just kept him safe behind that building, he would've been much better off.... Also the earlier charge on the left flank by the knights into the Uruks was unnecessary. Put them at risk of the ballista when he could've just kept them safe behind the building for another turn or two.... would've been able to help in the middle and those 5-6 Uruks on that flank would've needed 2-3 turns to move all the way around and join the combat.... Enjoyable game and very nice video report, but the errors were tough to overlook.

I actually think going for the terrain piece was the right call. Because its an elimination tournament even if you only loose by one point you are still eliminated. If Brodie wanted to win he needed to get the 3 points for staying alive, 3 points for taking the terrain piece, and he needed to get the kill with Glorfindel on the shaman. If he didn't go for the terrain piece his best outcome would have been a draw. It was obviously a risk but he was behind so needed to take a risk to stay in the game. This time it didn't pay off. As far as the nights go I would agree with you

@@ConquestCreations The problem is with the legion ballista especially and siege weapons in general what happened was probably at least an 80% chance of occurring. Re-rolls to hit and to scatter almost guaranteed that captain was taking the hit which at minimum takes him off the objective and denies 3 points or as we saw kills him for a 9 point swing. Not disagreeing with you I think Brodie had to do it but this is a huge issue with siege engines in my opinion. It's not like a mounted elf captain (a pretty strong combat model) could even try to go for the ballista as you need to take friends with you to scatter on to or your guaranteed dead. Unless u send half your army across the board and lose most of them on the way you just can't kill a siege engine, giving it free reign to do whatever it wants and basically give Will a guaranteed win in this particular game as he wasn't ever losing that terrain piece with the ballista surrounded by open ground and with LOS to basically every piece of terrain in his half.

Foremost, excellent presentation and concept. This is a very solid and entertaining production. Please continue your success. I do have some concerns however. Movement is very sloppy. Based on Control Zones it is literally impossible for the first piece in to contact two models. Also, when manoeuvring a piece around another, (the Uruk Captin wrapping around-great idea part 14:04) you must skirt one inch, the you can circle back and contact. You cannot leave base to base contact unless you flee. As the Uruk was allowed to contact 2 bases (illegally as discussed above) he would have had to stay there and dedicate the next combat to the remaining elf. This may seem pedantic but it is fundamental and critical aspect of the game. Isengard would not have gotten the manoeuvre advantage initially. Once a Control Zone is dropped, by all means, pile in. But until then I politely suggest tightening up on how the pieces move. As for tactics, shoo at Uruk-hai is almost pointless. Better to seperate them and then isolate by fire before charging. Yet to each their own. All the written, if I am incorrect please tell me how, so I can learn. At this point, were this CANCON, I would object strongly Lastly, I want to refocus on how good this presentation is, not just on its own, but compared to many others out there. Do not let my corrections or observations dismiss that. Instead, if I am correct, use it to make a great product a tad better. Cheers

Hey mate, thanks for the comment. I appreciate well thought out feedback. We got the moment right here. You absolutely can charge two models with one model. Once you enter a models control zone you must stay within it but you may move however you would like while you are inside it meaning that you may charge multiple models. In the case with the Uruk Hai captain, he charged the two elves and then the other Uruks charged one of the elves. This splits the fight off into two one on one fights. This means that the Uruk Hai captain after killing his opponent was free to go into the Rivendell knight because he was no longer fighting the other elf. Additionally because that elf was in combat he no longer had a control zone. Again thanks for the feedback! Any and all criticism is encouraged I am trying to make the best possible battle reports!

while it was an enjoyable game, I cannot stop the feeling that it was skewed against the ballista. Ive never seen this much sightblocking terrain on any of your tables (or any tables at all for that matter), especially concentrated in the middle of the board like that. And the *huge area of line of sight* turn 2 was like 5 inches wide... xD and like 1/6th of the board. while it may be interesting watching the elven ballet and the ballista scooting across the board for once all game...it is not the most exciting nor the most tactical gaming material. That rivendell captain shouldve gotten his in the way for the rocks still. Poor guy.

Strong disagree. The ballista won the game and basically set up a situation where the isengard player couldn't lose as they could see pretty much all the terrain pieces in their half and had a huge open field around them to prevent any approaches. With reroll hits and scatters that elf captain was dead on that turn or the next guaranteed. If u set up a board where it's any harder to hide half the elves would have been dead before combat. I have strong feelings about siege engines being bad for the game and I know others don't feel as strongly but for me this is the bare minimum terrain u need if there is a siege weapon in the game. If no siege engines and you want a more open board go for it but siege engines are too game breaking imo and they need tables with a heap of terrain to even give the other player a fighting chance. This is especially true for the isengard legion ballista which i still can't believe is a thing that actually exists in a game that is supposed to be fun. No fun is being had with that thing on the table. Edit: Finally u mentioned it being not being tactical with that much terrain. The alternative is the elves march to the slaughter and are almost wiped before any fighting happens. Where are the tactics in that?

@@Jewus19 nah totally get it. Most of the time less terrain isn't a big deal. It takes that siege weapon to realise how important a good terrain mix is to giving some balance.

While it was a good game, siege weapons are a bad inclusion in matched play.
