My intent is to create a somewhat entertaining video diary of my voyage into the world of Miniature Wargaming! Here's to hoping it doesn't completely suck!
A Tymordan Counter-Attack into Sudbury; a Midgard Heroic Battles report!
The Tymordans make a sneak attack across the boarder from Hampstead to try and quickly take back the territory they just lost! (and they brought more inhuman friends with them as Goblins make their first appearance on my gaming table!).
My 2nd game of Midgard will hopefully be as good as my first game! What a fantastic set of rules!

Setting up a Napoleonic Battlefield
Your channel is a breath of fresh air in my weeks. Currently living in a cramped apartment in Paris. Can’t wait to build myself a man cave when I finally escape lol
I hope the escape comes soon my friend! Every gamer deserves a great place to have battles! Have a fantastic week my friend 👍
When are you planning to play the next game in your Eastern Front Chain of Command campaign?
Brave thing to say for someone in Scald range
The Frikkan Scourge freak me out!
Wow ! so much armour on the table, can hardly wait to watch this one unfold !
The points wouldn't support an IS-2, so I had to pull it, but the Germans added a Jadgtiger! I love those frikkan Beasts! I am debating giving the Soviets back their IS-2 and compensating the Germans with a Ferdinand (Elefant)
Awesome model man 👍
Which system are are you using?
It will be Chain of Command. This was more of a cinematic setup
Nice model
Thanks so much
Another excellent-looking battle, expertly and enthusiatically narrated 😃 I love how you sucked up the decision to make the orcs and goblins hack through the forest and left it to their command rollls to decide their progress, or otherwise. Seems you solo wargaming skills are top notch 😉. I have one rule question - about supports to a combat having to retreat if the supported unit is forced to retreat. I can understand this if the supporting unit is directly beind the losing unit but if it isn't - your supporting giant kept on retreating with the unit it was supporting - I couldn't find anywhere in the rules say it needs to retreat too. Maybe that's me missing it though. I reckon everything else you did was pretty solid. Thanks for doing these btw. They keep my creative and gaming juices plenty topped up!
Thanks so much! I think you are right. Only pushback will move supports. Otherwise, they remain where they were. I think I carried that over from Hail Caesar, "fall back together with supports." I should have measured out the Orcs and goblins starting distance so they would have arrived on turn 3. I think it would have been an entirely different battle. Especially the way they absolutely brought the slaughter. Have a great week my friend 👍
Wow ! RIP to all the souls who died in this one .
Soviets are going to be dug in for this next one!
@@basement1908 Soviets dug in ? Really ? Maybe my mind is clouded but at this stage of the war I'm thinking the Soviets were throwing everything into an assault, regardless of casualties . Really looking forward to this one Steve
Awesome battle as always mate. I really liked what you did with the setup linking it to the broader campaign. We are lucky with summer here temps usually between 24 and 30 C - it's been really welcome after a dreary winter. Although we do not get some of the insane cold snaps you guys get. Have you tackled any of the epic ACW painting yet - be interested in your thoughts. Cheers mate - stay warm
They are just sitting there in their boxes waiting on me. You are right, though. I need to get this EPIC ACW train moving! Glad you've got good weather Brother! Have fun 👍
Oh yeah, more Orks. There needs to be enough of them that they don't worry about casualties.
I have a few more boxes to paint. We will reach that point one day! Have a good one my friend
I like your campaign, the story it adds really helps with immersion.
Thanks so much! I appreciate that!
Great game enjoyed it and hope your doing well keep warm 👍👍🤠🤠
Thank you so much! Have a good one!
Flames of war are spreading…we pray for the King‘s Peace.
Maybe one day! Have a great rest of your week my friend 👍
Great game
Thanks Tony! Stand by for Chain of Command!
Chaos and Carnage ! Just the way we like it : )
Heck yez! Have fun my friend!
These shorts are awesome
Thanks so much! Have a great day!
I love the battle sound.
Me too my friend! Thankfully, it should be a little warmer for us this week! Have fun over in the "Ville"!
This will be an battle worthy of the gods my friend!!
It was a blast! Thanks Luke! Back to the Russian Front this week!
I agree. This looks FREAKING AWESOME!
Thanks so much! I appreciate that. Have a good one!
Wonderful👍🏼😊🇫🇷
Thanks so much! Have a good one my friend 👍
I love the clang of battle axes in the morning : ) !
That's my Boy! The battle kicks off tonight!
@@basement1908 👍Checking comms each day for ETA of report.
Portuguese 28mm uniforms are a good conversion basis for dutch-belgian troops if you want to lean into your 1815 focus. Look at the uniforms for Bylandts brigade, which was the awesome brigade that did the heavy lifting at Quatre Bras.
I might have to take you up on that! Thanks for the suggestion. Have a fantastic week 👍
Nice report and great to see you playing GDA2. I really enjoy the use of ADCs and also the way the game deals with skirmishers matches what i have read about the period.
It is an absolutely wonderful system! I enjoy it so much! Have a fantastic week my friend 👍
the rule book makes this game almost a chore to learn, but it really isn't that complicated once it gets started, and tons of fun lol dont even know if this game is discontinued or not
I never liked FFGs business model, but I don't blame them for trying to turn a profit. I'm just not the biggest fan of the pay to win thing. Still, a great game that was fun to play
fantastic, but where did you buy the carpet?
Thanks so much! A company called killing fields terrain that has gone out of business
Very bloody rules, but very maneuvering. Maneuvering was the most interesting part of the game.
I enjoyed the maneuvering myself. Thank you for commenting. I hope all is well with you. Have a fantastic rest of your week 👍
Thanks for your excellent videos. You are definitely a machine getting so many figures painted and based.
Thank you so much! I appreciate that. Have a good one 👍
I am sorry late to the party. Had a fall. THIS WAS AWESOME . Thank you so much.
Sorry about the fall, my friend. Hope you are feeling better. I always appreciate hearing from you. Thanks again and be safe Brother!
Thanks for the F&F battle report ! If you get a 10 and it is the first time a unit is shooting during the game, that unit doesn't get low ammunition (page 57 from the Brigade F&F rulebook, should be the same rules in RF&F) Can't wait to know what do you think between BF&F, RF&F and WHLCS, pros and cons for those rules.
Thank you so much! I appreciate all the help I can get. I need to get a few more games under my belt and I will knock out that comparison video. Thank you for commenting! Have a fantastic week 👍
Hi, a unit which suffered at least a single hit from a missile fire must pass a moral check. If it fails it it must fall back. I guess this is the meaning of missile fire in this game%
Awesome! I appreciate the help! I hope all is well with you. Please have a fantastic rest of your week!
@ thank you for your reports.
Quite a list, Steve, but I'm sure you'll smash it!! Lookin forward to watching your progress. Many thanks, Cheers👍
It is quite daunting. I'm going to give it my best shot. I am already side-tracked after watching Martin's game of Here's the Ruckus. I think I want to get some samurai figures and give that a shot. Have fun, my friend!
Fantastic looking battle, miniatures and campaign build up! I am busy painting some Beastmen to have a battle against Orcs next week. Have played one game of Dwarves against Orcs. Ended up a win for the short guys who threw all their heavy infantry down one flank and obliterated the detachment facing them before the Orc centre could get engaged. Just got to the first combat - the berserkers were led by their commander. They took 2 hits though no stamina but did you roll for commander danger - food for crows? Just watched the 2nd half today - really good, exciting battle. Well narrated and gets you into the real flavour of the rules. Subscribed.
Awesome! I bet those armies are going to be awesome! I can't wait to paint some dwarves. Yes, I missed that role! The hero with the Beserkers needed a "risk to hero" dice role. Thanks for the assist my friend. I hope you get a lot of painting done and have a fantastic week 👍
@@basement1908 We had the battle today. This time the two Giant Black Orc elite units got into battle against the opposition elite Chaos Knight infantry with both army commanders attached. I had given the Chaos Knights and another Beastman unit the Relentless trait which sounded very chaosy, perfect for a wall of nutters ploughing ahead. Unfortunately you are one bad combat roll away from taking an extra stamina loss which happened to one of the Chaos Knights and the Beastmen unit in the same turn. Next turn they lost again and were both wiped out which emptied the Chaos reputation pot. Didn't help that the Giant Black Orcs had Brutal too. They are Nick Lund sculpted from pre-slotta days, are absolutely massive and tower over most normal foot troops. I think we should have had the Knights with Brutal as well as they are at least as tall as those Orcs. Needless to say my son wants to bin all the Relentless traits and having just re-read the rules for that trait which sort of target it as zombie and skellies and other mindless creatures I definitely agree. It also costs a point which is mad. The one benefit is not rolling a command test for missile hits, which in this battle was worthless as my one orc missile unit (Nick Lund Wolf Riders with bows) got the first charge in and never got to fire anything. Orcs get their first win on the board.
I must confess that I was really, really missing seeing a medieval battle report on your channel.
I did too, my friend! Thank you for commenting. I hope all is well with you. Please have a wonderful rest of your day!
Great battle report Steve - really liked the pushing of units across the battlefield - it does seem like an interesting rule system - I am looking forward to seeing you add in those further elements and units as the campaign continues. Are you considering in the campaign to introducing combat across other fronts on the map instead of all in one region - that might change the dynamics between the two empires. Glad you are starting to feel better - those draining viruses are the worst. Take care mate
I definitely need to expand on the campaign thing. I fought a couple of battles up north early last year, but I definitely need to do more! I highly recommend the system. I am looking forward to getting better with it. Have a good one my friend 👍
So where do you get all those minitures? Like those foot knights look great.
A couple of different manufacturers. Some are Perry miniatures, some are Fireforge miniatures, some are Oathmark miniatures and others are 3D prints I found on Etsy
Fantastic game really enjoyed your games thay are always brilliant which ever you do your the boss 😂😂 take care 👍👍🤠🤠🤠
Thank you so much! I appreciate that my friend. Have a fantastic weekend 👍
I tried Skirmishers in my first battle a week ago. While not super powerful you can pass through the line, shoot and pass back. They can also move in any direction 1 spear throw. Just have a look into them before your next play. I just gave some highlights, check the details. As for my figs, I kept them single based and use trays.
Cool, I definitely want to try out skirmishers. I plan on incorporating more terrain into my next battle. I hope you are ready for the snow tomorrow!
Hold on a second Basement, are you multibasing models? What happened to the thousands of individally based mooks? :D . I joke. Great battle as always.
Hehe! I multi based them for your and my sanity! A fantastic suggestion my friend! I hope all is well with you. Have a wonderful weekend 👍
Although slightly disappointed that the Orcs seemed almost absent from the fight and apparent opportunities to put in more flank attacks were not taken it was nevertheless a superb and engrossing battle
I totally dropped the ball with the orcs! Never fear, they will be back with a vengeance and with greater numbers in the near future!
@@basement1908 Sing along time, "Whats that coming over the hill is it a Monster" ? NO ! it's worse than that, it's the Orc nation 😅
Lovely stuff mate, really enjoyed that, I hope you are on the mend 👍
Thanks Martin. Thanks for popping in. I'm feeling much better. Thank you for asking. Have a fantastic weekend 👍
Wow! Seriously large set up and I loved your fantasy world, great to see. Regarding missile troops supporting in combat: (1) No-one can shoot into a Combat - this is on page 43 of the rules, Shooting Restrictions (2) Supporting Units can shoot and support. The support represents the presence of friends giving stability to the Units fighting in front. Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers.
Awesome! Thank you for your help and for your hard work on this! Fantastic set of rules 👏 👍
Nicely done my friend. Sorry you haven’t been feeling so good. I need to give these rules another go soon
Thanks Dom! I appreciate that. I am finishing up a group of 30 goblins and then I am going to take another shot at it. It's going to take a few games to get myself comfortable. Have a fantastic weekend my friend 👍
If a unit takes a hit in shooting they have to take a command test.
I appreciate the help, my friend!
So it is always worth rolling even if you have fewer dice than your target's armour. You wont cause a stamina point loss from the fire. You might get them to withdraw a half ST. If they back into friends then both units roll another command test. (P46, using the excellent index 😃)
Just started watching this… so strange as I lived in a town called Sudbury a few years ago 😂 great start to 2025 mate!! Take care
Sudbury is just up the hill from where I used to live. Nothing special up there to see though. Lol.
@ which Sudbury? I’m in England, the one I was in is in Suffolk? Very quiet little town
@@lukefarrell6769 - Well, strictly it’s Sudbury Hill. Near Harrow in west London. Sounds even better as a medieval battle site than plain ‘Sudbury’.
@ ahhh I was Sudbury, near Bury St Edmonds…
That's awesome! Thanks for commenting Luke! I always appreciate hearing from you! Have fun my friend!
Hi Steve , Happy New Year from south of France 🙏🏼 see you soon on next big big napoleonic battle 🙏🏼 Best regards, Stéphane
Nice to hear from you as always! Can't wait for the next one. Have fun my friend!
@ 🙏🏼
Beautiful as always. What system are you using? And who is the guy with the club?
Midguard Heroic Battlea from Too Fat Lardies. The hill giant is a 3D print I got off Etsy
Amazing!
