"The fighting Uruk-hai have gone pillaging. They have made their way farther northwards and westwards than they have dared go before. The land they have entered will not just ignore them though for this land is the home of the Dúnedain. Rallying to Arathorn and Halbarad, these Dúnedain clear the next village on the Uruks path of all innocent lives. The Rangers must now hold their ground and stop the advance of these deadly beings before they take any more lives. But can they stand against such reckless hate?"

Great Battle Report! Looking at starting up a Ranger force of my own. Couple things though: Mauhur is a character in the books, not a GW invention. Also Heroic March can affect all friendly models within 6” or just the hero who called it, controlling players choice, but you can’t charge while under the effects of a March!

Unlucky dice rolling for the Uruk player but the terrain was a perfect layout for the Rangers to shoot at clear targets for their entire approach. That said, running the Uruks straight up the firing lanes without using the walls and buildings for cover (only exposing them to fire at the end, as was commented at the end), placing the heroes in front to be killed first (like, duh) and not using Heroic March / At the Double to clear the gap rapidly pretty much guaranteed the Uruk's defeat.

The scenario is quite in favour of the rangers, allowing them to just sit and shoot the entire game is what they want to do, so enabling them to do that is quite a favour. Maybe the rangers should also have to move their models to the opposite edge then that would be more dynamic maybe. Maybe the Uruks stole baby aragorn and they two rangers to go save him? Anyway, thanks for the batrep. Nice atmosphere, good luck getting better.

This was great fun to watch! I've got an idea, hear me out! Dunedain rangers vs. rangers of Ithilien BUT not against each other. See, they are starting from opposite sides of the table facing each other and in the middle there will be third army of orcs marching through. So this will be an ambush, quite similar to what Ithilien rangers did against Easterlings in the movies, but from the both sides of the road. And a challenge is to kill more enemies than the other ranger group. So Legolas/Gimli sort of competition. Either use third player to control orc army or homebrew some kind of automation for orcs. For example, depending on dice roll they run in random directions in panic or attack the closest ranger they see. One way to determine direction is to roll d20 and when it lands you look up at the number and which way it points. Or paint an arrows to one die. I don't mind if majority of orc never make it melee fight but are shot full of arrows instead :D I don't know if this is even new idea but I have never heard of it and just came to my mind :)

A bit hard to judge because Jake's dice rolling was statistically improbable (to say the least) :) , but I'm not convinced that GW have their point costs right for the Uruks. I think a 3 to 1 ratio of Uruks to Rangers (or perhaps 5 to 2) would be a fairer representation of the actual abilities of the combatants. Also, I understand the reason for rolling in the same dice tray from a video creation point of view, but it does have the downside of dice interference. I would imagine when you are having a battle that isn't being filmed, you either roll in separate dice trays, or roll on the table away from the minis? Edit: I have just checked the points costs of the figures again and find that the Uruk to Ranger ratio is pretty close to 3 to 1, so ignore the first part of my comment :)

No it was just a house rule we used to always do. Prefer a re roll over the 1/3 - 4/6 rule. But we have sinced changed it so we don't confused viewers ;) haha

1st turn, didn't the rangers all move full? so they couldn't have shot ?

It would be REALLY helpful if you showed the armies very clearly at the start and went through them. I know you did your pan thingy but it's really nice to see the army presented before the battle. Helps with understanding what is going on.

Yeah with our new studio that's currently being built we will have very clear and cinematic shots at the beginning that show off all the armies and heroes. Can't wait to show you all the changes :D

Thorin's company vs Fellowship, I believe Thorin's company would win, more decent fighters/defenses. If you are going to do this battle report, good location is inside erebor/moria

At 39:00, why did you re-roll the dice for the fight a few times? In a drawn fight (equal fight value and same result on your dice), you just roll one dice to determine the victor 1-3 evil wins, 4-6 good wins.

Yeah we know. But it has always been a house rule for us that we re do it. But we've done in the proper way in more recent battles. Because people complain about house rules 🤣🤣

I actually kinda like the house rule compared to the official rules, ngl. Feels more in the spirit of the game, always felt a little silly that it can go from heavily unbalanced to 50/50 just because of a tie.

A bit of a spam terrain setup. Isengard needs to pass over a tiny bridge with everyone hiding behind walls on up on the heights. We all knew how this was going to end without even seeing the battle
