Can't wait for another battle report. Such a great and epic narrative it is! And yet, it is a battle report, that may find it's place in Warhammer rulebooks. I can even see when "the tides of battle" really turns. And both sides looks like an equals, not "a protagonist Superman" And "antagonist bags for beating", so the battle really makes sense. You are good in storytelling. Please, try other rare canon scenarios, keep it works!
tactical marine: I endured years of hypno-conditioning, surgery and genetic modification to become the ultimate soldier encased in powered armour offering unparalleled infantry protection... titan: I cast foot
Thank you. That’s really a huge goal with these. Want to integrate the table top into the larger battles in the fiction and capture the tone and atmosphere of the Horus heresy
Your narrative approach to battle reports and attention to detail is inspiring! Not to mention the setup is beautiful to behold. This channel is an absolute treat for heresy enjoyers. Thanks for all the effort!
really appreciate it - i put a lot into this one. can’t wait to progress the campaign further and bring out some of the larger terrain pieces that haven’t been seen on the channel yet
@@heresyeraI think there’s only one thing we’d all appreciate in future episodes and campaigns and that is a few more wide shots to help viewers track the movements and paint a better picture of the battlefield as it unfolds
Loved the cool backdrop with the Titans fighting in the backdrop. Added another layer of immersion. Also acted as a small interlude between the rounds. Great work!👏
This is the best thing I've watched in a while, and am more of a 40k fan myself. Keep doing what your doing (P.S If I were to make 40k Battle Reports they would be made almost exactly like this)
Legion dice! Excellent implementation after prior requests. Always great to see small, quality of life, improvements. Production quality through the roof, as usual.
Thank you for the super thanks! 100% agree on the legion dice. Especially helps on roll offs and armour saves. Been watching eBay for deals on the other legion dice for later videos
Can’t wait for the next narrative. Your videos are just extreme. There soo good I feel like this is an actual historical battle that you are simply reading about. So good I feel
Dude this battle report is fucking amazing. I love the scenes you built just for narrative purposes like the Son's of Horus' bridge with the ship hologram. Best battle reps on yt.
I don't even play 30k, and thus I do not have a great understanding of the rules. So having this delivered in a narrative format helps me to understand what is going on with such incredible clarity. It's so engaging, and makes time fly, which is not an attribute many battle reports have. Great work, thank you!
Absolutely amazing! The storytelling, the effects, the background sounds, music, all the extra models and casualties used. What a beautiful production!
God I love these videos, the first one is superb this one equally so! they way you craft storytelling with gameplay is second to none! The armies look great, the visuals are great! The narration is well written to fit with the dice rolls! usually I find bat reps go on a little too long but this one I wanted more! It just needs a little more of like summary ending as I didnt realise it was ending before it cut off.
thank you. the ending is attached to episode 3. it rolls straight into the next episode. once the series is done i’m going to assemble all the episodes into one long video and add the space battle scenes in to the mega cut.
This...this is incredible work. I mean really, really incredible. To see the Heresy like this, just as I've pictured the battles in my imagination these past two decades, is remarkable. You have something really special here. I'm honored to have found your channel.
really appreciate it - thank you. trying to blend lore video with battle report. i really want to capture the scale and atmosphere of the heresy in everyone i do
Fantastic cinematography and story telling! Watching this series has installed a new interest of the Horus Heresy into me. I cannot wait to see more of what you create!
Your battle reports sent me hurling over the edge. I’ve been wanting to get into Horus Heresy for more than 8 years, but these videos have inspired me to finally say fuck it and pull the trigger. I hope you keep producing more of these, they’re fucking awesome.
This... This is the coolest channel I have found in a long time! I love the stills, the production, the gameplay, the narrative! It's all so awesome! I play 40k and AoS, but episode one of this series made me go out and purchase an Age of Darkness box ❤️
THAT WAS SPECTACULAR! I ran across your channel just now. I love your approach to battle reports. Absolutely love it. I can’t imagine the amount of planning and pre- and post-production work that goes into this. Heading over to Patreon now. 😊
really appreciate it. planning and writing is often what gets overlooked. these videos take a ton of time but i really enjoy them. have plans to do a lot more conflicts, both major and minor when I finish Cthonia. Thankfully i have most of the models done and ready for episode 3, but as the campaign progresses i’ll need to add a lot more models and a bit of scenery to the collection. thank you for joining the patreon. it 100% goes straight back into the channel to make bigger and better videos
Please please keep this up, I’ve just got into Warhammer HH and already got some sets for my imperial fist army and I love this man ! It’s a master piece !
1: Very well produced, very cool. 2: I know this isn't supposed to be competitive or anything but letting that land raider outflank the IF player was the biggest tactical blunder I think I've ever seen.
absolutely love these battle reports! especially seeing some titan action. would love to see some adeptus titanicus reports done like this, keep up the great work!
Thank you. Right now going to stick to heresy but am exploring the idea of doing some of the Old Forge World Imperial Armour books. I would love to do a Narrative Battle Report series on The Taros Campaign, Vraks, Badab, and the Anphaleon Project.
Excellent work, a cinematic & awe inspiring testament to the hobby, loving the series so far, can't wait for future episodes! The level of painting is great on its own, let alone all of the custom terrain, set pieces, dead marines etc. - Don't think for a second the monumental amount of work goes unnoticed or unappreciated! I especially liked your model of the titan command inertia :)
appreciate hearing that. i went pretty hard making this one. painted a dozen tanks and all the titans specifically for this episode because it didn’t feel right using my existing legio mortis. thankfully i have most of what i need for the next episode so I can go from writing straight into filming.
This is the only thing that I kept checking daily for, super excited to watch this! Especially with all the positive comments! Especially with just getting into 10th edition (for me) and ecking out my first win today!
Will take me a while to get to 1,000 but ep3 is in the works and i got lots of ideas beyond cthonia. so many amazing events and factions in the heresy deserve their spotlight.
Another great work. I got this discovery-documentary-film vibes from this. First time in 15 years when i watched battle-report from start to finish in one go
thank you. glad you like the format - really trying to blend the genre of lore and bat rep together to make a shorter more cinematic experience for the viewer.
These battle reports are insane. The landing shots at the beginning had me thinking i was watching a movie. I went right to your patreon page to support cause I need these to keep coming
I have never seen this level of production on a batrep! Thank you for sharing this work of yours. Also, I love how you made this really feel like a small corner of a much larger conflict.
Thank you. Making the battle feel like the scale of the battle in the fiction was really a goal of mine. I really want these to feel epic like the books. Things in the Siege of Cthonia get pretty epic as it goes down and a few of the later battles are at a scale that no battle report has ever captured, so pretty excited to try and tackle that scale visually, but keep the game and story focused.
Loved it once again! I dont know how many times youve heard this already but these episodes are some of the best batreps I have seen in years! Thank you for all your hard work!
Your style of battle report is one of the best on the internet. Love it so much, you’ve inspired me to start investing in Horus Heresy. I’ve already got Little Horus!
@@heresyeraQuestion, have you ever considered making a video or two to introduce newcomers to Horus Heresy? I’ve looked around RUclips and there isn’t much.
i’ve considered it but i think there are channels that already do that - probably better than i could. lot of the established channels have good videos on how to start using either the age of darkness set or the space marine battle group. heresy hammer and black briar gaming’s episodes come to mind - hearesy is also a good resource
@@heresyera completely insane to me not to do that. You effectively kill the unit by keeping it away, and it's flanking from behind all of your tanks. Did he forget???
Thank you. Put a lot into this one. Right now Heresy_Era is just a one man operation on the painting /filming / editing side that is assisted from a good friend who commands the loyalists in this campaign.
This is peak, the best battle reports on youtube. Id ask for the whole heresy, every book but I cant imagine the amount of work thats gone in. Keep them coming!! is there a patreon?
thank you-! i do have a patreon in the video and channel links - these really do take an enormous amount of time, not only filming, editing and animating but i paint all of the models and terrain myself. i do have ideas to do tons more historical events and campaigns set in the heresy. After cthonia i’ll do a few smaller conflicts to introduce new settings and other legions to the channel.
Honestly this goes above warhammer, the production values and quality are off the roof and I already showed the first ep to some non warhammer friends, with very good feedback. Keep it up !!
Perfection! I love how You added even more narrative to the surroundings of the main battle, creating even bigger event than on the gaming table! Amazing job again!

You are good in storytelling. Please, try other rare canon scenarios, keep it works!
Lessons learned:
- Loyalists: Don't let a melta gun squad flank you.
- Traitors: If Captain Crye is in your general vicinity, Run.
no, them running is what let him kill them all. if they had held their ground they might have won.
they couldn’t stand to let the loyalists spend another minute on their home world
Don't mess with Crye he's a straight Gangsta
tactical marine: I endured years of hypno-conditioning, surgery and genetic modification to become the ultimate soldier encased in powered armour offering unparalleled infantry protection...
titan: I cast foot
“A bear devoured by wolves” awesome stuff. Best batreps in the history of you tube.
that line was lifted from the campaign book -
This is how we all picture our battles in our head so to see it displayed like this is great.
Thank you. That’s really a huge goal with these. Want to integrate the table top into the larger battles in the fiction and capture the tone and atmosphere of the Horus heresy
@@alexanderfielding This is truth.
Honestly if this isn't the future of battle reports, I don't want it.

Yes, yes, yes
@@heresyeraI think there’s only one thing we’d all appreciate in future episodes and campaigns and that is a few more wide shots to help viewers track the movements and paint a better picture of the battlefield as it unfolds
got an overhead camera i’m rigging for episode 3 - agree it would really help/ especially in the movement phase
I genuinely can't get enough of this, normally I find battle reports dull but this is like watching the actual battle in the heresy.
Really appreciate it.
this feels like a professional documentary of a war and i love it
Peak cinema is on its way
One of THE BEST formats and presentation I saw in battle reports
Cant wait!
If not the best. The editing and themed army building for the narrative of these batreps is GOATed beyond words
Cant Wait!!! Best Bat Reps on youtube.
Loved the cool backdrop with the Titans fighting in the backdrop. Added another layer of immersion. Also acted as a small interlude between the rounds. Great work!👏
thank you. it’s a fun way to introduce more larger warmachines into smaller games and will allow me to represent all the different legio’s correctly
This is the quality I expected from the other, larger, channels.
You’ve set the standard for battle reports!
thank you. Got a lot more coming. Cthonia only gets bigger and more epic and there is a ton more to do afterward.
8:48 that turret toss was badassss
THIS is how you do a battle report. i wanna she cool miniatures, a story and some
action. take a bow sir
Thank you
I have never felt excitement for a battle report like these ones. Seriously some of the highest quality videos out there.
This is the best thing I've watched in a while, and am more of a 40k fan myself. Keep doing what your doing (P.S If I were to make 40k Battle Reports they would be made almost exactly like this)
The narrative remains incredibly enjoyable and engaging.
Not sure how long you'll be able to keep up this level of quality, But DAMN!! You put on a great show!
Legion dice! Excellent implementation after prior requests. Always great to see small, quality of life, improvements. Production quality through the roof, as usual.
Thank you for the super thanks! 100% agree on the legion dice. Especially helps on roll offs and armour saves. Been watching eBay for deals on the other legion dice for later videos
Your Battle reports are legions above the rest, Top job dear Sirs and Sirettes
To help you keep doing the Emperor's work :)
I didn't think you could do better with the narrative aspect than episode 1. But you definitely did, please keep these coming they're fantastic!
thank you. the campaign is really going to ramp up in some really cool ways that i think is going to blow you guys away
Can’t wait for the next narrative. Your videos are just extreme. There soo good I feel like this is an actual historical battle that you are simply reading about. So good I feel
really appreciate it - working on the long overdue episode 3 now
Another battle report of the highest quality. Nothing else seems to hit the same after these videos. Thank you.
These are the coolest battle reports I've seen on the internet. Please keep up the awesome work!
Dude this battle report is fucking amazing. I love the scenes you built just for narrative purposes like the Son's of Horus' bridge with the ship hologram. Best battle reps on yt.
It has been like a few weeks and I feel like I have been waiting for ages. This is probably my most favorite Warhammer channel now it’s so fuckin cool
I really like how your terminators for both loyalist and traitors are scaled appropriately along side the space marines in power armor.
I hope we get more videos like this! you guys do a fantastic job with these battle reports.
You are the best Warhammer content creator there is; bar none. The level of sophistication, production value, and quality of narrative is unmatched.
Thank you 🙏
Absolutely awesome, love the Alpha legion scene spotting the tanks moving in the night.
that was just a clever way to spare me from having to paint an alpha legion recon squad for 4 seconds of footage ;)
I don't even play 30k, and thus I do not have a great understanding of the rules. So having this delivered in a narrative format helps me to understand what is going on with such incredible clarity. It's so engaging, and makes time fly, which is not an attribute many battle reports have. Great work, thank you!
Appreciate it. That is a big goal of the channel is to make the content enjoyable regardless of your level of understanding of the game.
It just keeps getting better! The narrative and even a side battle with TITANS! exceptional job this is the most fun I’ve had watching a batrep!
Best battle report, NO ONE CAN COMPARE TO THIS MASTERPIECE!!!
Absolutely amazing! The storytelling, the effects, the background sounds, music, all the extra models and casualties used. What a beautiful production!
thank you

Easily the best campaign on the internet. Love the work. Keep it up
It is always absolutely worthwhile to wait for your Battle Reports!! Can't wait to see you playing Primarchs!!
THAT WAS SPECTACULAR!

Hoo Lee Shiet. I hope you could conttinue this channel. That's the best Batrep I have ever seen
Thank you. Got a lot more ideas. Have some new motion control gear on order that I am waiting on before I do episode 3. Needed a larger rig.
Please please keep this up, I’ve just got into Warhammer HH and already got some sets for my imperial fist army and I love this man ! It’s a master piece !
thank you. Appreciate it. EP3 is coming.
Fantastic! This is the best battle reports on RUclips! Can't wait for more!

2: I know this isn't supposed to be competitive or anything but letting that land raider outflank the IF player was the biggest tactical blunder I think I've ever seen.
honestly didnt expect the SOH t2 to hit so hard and for the Proteus Explorator and squad to do so much work.
absolutely love these battle reports! especially seeing some titan action. would love to see some adeptus titanicus reports done like this, keep up the great work!
i love adeptus titanicus and would love to do a battle report for it - animate all the slates ,
think it’s a must when i get to beta garmon
Awesome battle report, can’t wait to watch more. Genuinely the best warhammer content I’ve seen on RUclips!
really appreciate it
Not even started it, just know its going to be a banger
This series became one of my favorites! Thanks for your effort, we want more! Even 40k ones

Best battle reports on RUclips for Warhammer. Short, concise, animated, narrated and fun. Good job 👏
Absolute Peak! Can't wait for more content. Appreciate the hard work.

really appreciate it
Fantastic rep, hope that this will be a very long series a real treat for the eyes
Can’t say enough how well done these are!
I love the high quality of these videos. Keep up the good work.
Nice I was the 1000th like! Awesome video as always keep up the narrative openings they're always a treat to the eyes and ears 👍
This is beyond amazing, such cinematic mastery! Looking forward to a part 3.
This feels like something i should have paid for. Amazing quality!
Thank you!
Best battle reports in the hobby tbh
thank you!
Stoked for part 3. Quality and narrative drive behind these is top tier!
Your style of battle report is one of the best on the internet. Love it so much, you’ve inspired me to start investing in Horus Heresy. I’ve already got Little Horus!

That flanking of the IF superheavy was just brutal. How were they even able to do that??
he should have screened with a tac squad in land raider
@@heresyera completely insane to me not to do that. You effectively kill the unit by keeping it away, and it's flanking from behind all of your tanks. Did he forget???
God ive never been more invested in a battlerep cant wait for the next one!

Brilliant. That's so great!
