Best army review hands down. Right on point from the very beginning. Old skaven player here looking to play AoS4. Jezzails are huge value when looking at the competitive scene. Other than that looking at our roster lacks an identity. So many units from different clans that dont synergize. Maybe a few new datasheets plus a codex will solve this problem.

Love your videos I'm afraid I have to disagree with your take on the Warp Lightning Cannon and Ratling Warpblaster. As a Skaven player, you ALWAYS hit the big red button.

Brave of seraphon to not redeploy slann. I have found teleport charges in 4th need 2 worthwhile targets or target already in melee. Attempt vs 1 redeploys to safety

Disagree on always rend vs skaven. Yes infantry many. But if general regiment has decent units +1 to hit&wound is also good for the units that aren't wounding on 2+ already. Doesn't even require charging.

Not having pictures of the units displayed while talking about them ruined what was otherwise an amazing video!

Totally new to AOS, you kept mention being able to return infantry models, how do the skaven do that? For example the jazzails?

damn, i missed that upload, glad i can watch it now. super hyped to see what you play and how you use the new stuff. im going to play my first 4th ed game tomorrow with slaves though since i havent had the time yet to build my new skaven models

Clanrats don't feel worth it unless they're 40s more like a grinder unit and chaff now like 3e. It seems like the 20 points less for the monks makes a difference so often in list building. We really need priest back. Making a legends list with 100 point skabbiks in a regiment with a corrupter and 110 plague priest feels like an entirely different army.

That was awesome. Best bat reps on the tube

so glad I found this channel, you do the best battle reports, great for learning 4th.

Amazing report. I was skeptic on not seeing the dice rolled and the decisions happen in real time, but this was excellent. Love to see you're never truly out of it. Coming back over and over was really fun to watch. Thanks!

Another awesome report! Glad to see that 4th edition hasn't stopped you from making crazy plays. Down to 1 model and you still put up another 28 points, madness! My one "complaint" is that you had the point totals for the armies on the opposite side of the screen from the deployments

Best battlereps on youtube!

Oh thank goodness the Verminlord I wanted to get is actually good (I just started painting my eshin army with the new edition)

Would be great if you did a whole army picture, cant even see what you are playing with or how they look painted. 3/5

Interesting your last vid you say I don't think people will take the double turn. First battle report boom 1st chance a double turn.

Your clarity and presentation is great as well as the display of the board but an actual battle as it plays out vs an opponent would be cool too.

awsome lessen to stick with it and take the chees you have given 🙂

The painting on those skaven is outrageous

11:16 I’m not certain he can deploy a unit to take their land. It can’t have been set up, or maybe I missed his initial move?

Great battle report! New to the channel so looking forward to seeing more of the new edition. But I gotta say, I was always one of those double turn haters and my mind has still not changed. I know you kept the score close, but double turns are such a feel bad moment if you are on the receiving end. I know there are more reactive commands you can use to help in this edition, so that's good. But man I hate the double. I even feel bad taking it if it means tabling the opponent in round 2. 😂

Great job. Loose by 4 points, when you have in second round 1 model and Seraphon whole army 😮 Slann resurecting in Hero phase, not at the end of turn.

This is the way Battle reports should be done. Only thing I might change is have both players talk about their reasons they tried and did certain things. Overall, grat report!

Always love seeing the rats on your channel! Helps me see what they can really do, and gets me hyped to get mine on the table. Thanks Jordan!

Ya yours is my favorite channel of course I watch many others too. And it's obvious you are a very skilled Skaven player, still, I haven't seen Skaven winning any battle reports. Also, in your review of the Skaven units video, very often you were saying things like 'well this unit is too many point to be worth it's value', you know for Abomination, other war machine teams (except Jezzails) etc ... also with not having PCB, foot priest, rat swarms or giant rats etc etc .. to me I've been feeling that Skaven have been pretty nerfed since AOS3 also less variety for list building, and seems hard to win games as they dont hit hard, still weak, but also points are a bit expensive so not as many troops as we're used to and get removed from play too easily. Ya, I realize you made a mistake in the game, but you still played well, and your opponent also didn't play perfectly. So when I first watched your Unit Review, I thought to myself the faction seems very nerfed, but maybe all armies were really nerfed and that's a new balancing for AOS4 .. BUT after watching other army reviews and a bunch of battle reports, I realized that other armies are not nerfed! .. and some are quite strong. Seraphon seems like a beast of an army! Stormcast seems very strong.. they all seem strong .. except Skaven. .. Unfortunately I haven't gotten any games in.. I want to, but it's been hard for me to find local players. So I'll need to commute when the time comes. But I'm wondering your opinion on what I'm saying .. I love Skaven .. but I'm almost feeling they are 'too nerfed' and maybe hard to win games at all at least for awhile. So I wonder your opinion on that. thanks

I few points you got wrong/missed: Clawlords: +3A when wounded. He’s not that squishy so do able. The big power though is the ability to make an ally unit hit right after him in attack order. He ever gets a way for Strikes First people will rage. Clanrats: 2A with auto wound on crit and recursion on 20/40 unit, 160pts feels about right. Warp Lightning/Warp Blaster: the self-damage boost only works if a hero is within 3” and even then COMPLETELY OPTIONAL! Planning is the key here.

Zoom to see units plzzzzz! LOVE the channel!

the 2 inch extra move does not work i think on the kroxigors, only monsters and cavalery.

What a great watch. After such crushing losses early on for the game to be this close it was glorious video. Deceiver living up to his name with all those teleporting shenanigans! Kudos

great batrep as always

how can deceiver cast two spells like you do in the first turn? since he's only wizard life 1, he can't throw skipperlead and purple sun ?

I love this format and this game was wild! a CP/ round counter would be grand :) I have a small game question tho, is there a reason the seraphon player didnt charge the stormfiend with the ark of sotek? that seemed like a good way to tie them down and prevent them from going onto his home objective?

I've waited for that vid to see 4th in action, and fingers crossed for next ones ;D

Seraphon look beastly, but watching you move around with the verminlord and picking up all the points you could after the devastating double turn was great to watch, it was really close despite that start.

Love your battle reports! 🥰

I would've conceded but you stayed in and kept a close game. Seraphon seem busted in general. Love learning from your great skill though. You did things that will help me playing any army. Please post often! Love your content.

Do you think leaning more toward one formation is the way to go? It seems like you have a lot of units in this list that would benefit from their own formations. I was thinking of Rogors and Stormvermin but either one will lose punch outside of their formation. Excellent report. Very inspirational to see how you clawed your way back after losing almost everything. Keep up the good work!

I want to run x3 Ratling Warpblaster and MORE MORE them each turn and tons of Jezzails.

Thanks Jordan!

Your battle reports are so clean. I love the format, keep it up.

Eshin just bad units, im going 12 jezzails engineer and either warpblaster or cannon, warpseer spam our manifestations, and 2 grey seer just need all 3 manifestations for block and support and then 3x20 clanrats, warpseer now great support hero, try charge with only one dice and 2" for clawsteps most wont catch you, and gives my jezzails those 24 shots off and nail those Hammers or lame support heroes🤣🫣

Yes-yes, I am glad to see you putting out new ratty goodness vids

22:19 take the flanks has to have a unit within 6" of each short battle edge not wholly within your territory. Those hunters being near your terrain does not count, they are wholly within their territory.

What do you think about deceiver and your eshin units? 😀

I doubt you can use the deceivers ability to teleport within 1" of the faction terrain. Specifically you can target faction terrain as if it was a unit, but the ability says pick a point, it's not targetting the pyramid.

Definitely don't think it was correct to bring the Stormvermin. Would've been much better off bringing more clanrats. A reinforced unit of clanrats is extremely nice as well, since you get a full pack of 20 when you bring them back with the gnawhole command point, basically giving you a free third unit.

Always nice to see the host take an L

Wow that was a wild battle. Skaven don't stop recurring, it's crazy

Was dying to see a 4th BR outta Jordan, let’s goooooooo

Interesting. It felt a bit more linear of a table top game, except when he doubled turned. The teleporting and gnawholes feel like less of a feature than before. The "free", moving endless spells are like extra unpredictable units now. One needs to build a potential knowledgebase on what the opponent can can do with the spells. Almost lends it self to a more cagey playstyle to keep the game from chaos. Makes me wonder what your thoughts are on a having enough strong attacks to break units in the skaven builds while keeping mobility and too many choices for the opponent. I liked the tunnel runners. I feel like there is some play there, perhaps with more storm fiends. or an abomination? Does the army feel "smaller"? or perhaps it's simply that the whole game is scaled down? Are we playing with 1500 points in comparison to 3rd?
