no channel could do an apocalypse as well as ss82. this is definitely the best warhammer channel out there and these apocalypse games are brilliant. keep up the great content!
Quite honestly, you could make 1v1 arena matchups (Best of 3, Best of 5, etc) and we'd watch it. That Necron Overlord fight was superior to Manny vs Pacquiao.
also deathmark "mark for death" special rule only applies when the enemy have a unit come in from reserves (meaning you can come in on their turn and shoot after they move but you have to shoot the unit that caused the death marks to come on) if you don't they still wound on 2+ regardless if it's your turn or your opponents
Woohoo, Eldar and Necrons! My two favourites! Those were the two armies I was going back and forth between when choosing my first one a few months ago. It has become Eldar! I hope to see more of these!
Boy; if there was ever a time to add a Seer Council to your Pointy ears, Luke, this was it. 5 Warlocks, 2 Seers. Invisible Scorpions, the Avatar re-rolling saves, the Titan re-rolling hits..... Big difference, mate. Eldar without psychers is like Necrons without their reanimation. Was a visual feast as usual though. Thanks for the extra effort. Apoc games are the best.
That's great, thanks! O if you do ever find time to add a painting reference for the Guard that would be awesome but again,thanks for all your help and also for the great battle reports!! Seriously this is one of, or if not THE best channel for Gamesworkshop. Like you, I found Gamesworkshop through a friend at school in the mid 90s but finding your channel pulled me right back into the hobby a few years ago. Amazing how far gamesworkshop has come over the past 20 odd years! Cheers again fella 👌😎☝️
Sure....I think James may do a reference video on his channel...the Guard are his army:) Glad the channel has been an inspiration. Yes GW certainly has come along well:)
Your battle reports are one of the best on youtube . i know how much time it takes to organize for games and edit the videos so hats down for the effort. Armies are stunning and to see them in such force is perfection .Will share this on my club facebook page Sorry for the bad english
awesome battle report! I play necrons, and I've seen loads of bat reps on RUclips with high points, I haven't seen anyone run a destroyer cult and I don't know why it's amazing.
I knew it would be neurons. one of your favourite armies. very enjoyable game to watch. watched it last night with a friend. think you inspired him to dig his necrons out and get playing again. wasn't surprised about the result, but the flying spaghetti monster is a bit scary isn't it. cheers luke. Bring on the next one.
Damn good game, love these apocalypse games, very cool thing the duel of the necron lords! Hope to see more of these fights for command in future apocalypse games, nice work!
The dawn was yet several hours off and a heavy mist covered the bombed out ruins of an imperial city. Once swarming with the citizens of the Imperium, the wages of war had scoured the city of all life, an empty husk filled with shadows all that remained. Yet, war was now returning to this place and it was not the living that brought it. On a raised platform, surrounded by their personal lychguard, the two necrons faced one another. Both overlords of large forces and both fearsome warriors, they had come to this planet to deal death to the first born of the stars, the ones known as eldar. Here they had destroyed many of them and had captured one of their greatest, his death only stayed from the knowledge that alive he would draw still more of the hated ones to this world to be killed. But before that slaughter, a different battle must be fought. One not of hate, but of pride and control. A battle between the Overlords. For of the two, only one could lead this united force into the fray, only one who's orders would be given and who's words would be obeyed. So they faced each other, both legends among their kind and neither willing to bow. A moment of silence was observed as each gazed upon the other. Their twin scythes rose to meet between them briefly, then they dropped and the duel had begun. The blows fell fast and heavy and, though some found their mark on one or the other, most of the damage was swiftly repaired. Even still, such was the fury of their struggle and the viciousness of their weapons, that eventually both found themselves with several telling wounds. Yet, the implacable determination of neither had abated and it seemed as if the battle might continue right up until the eldar had come to retrieve there captured kinsman. Then, it happened. Surging forward across the blasted ground, Osiris used his arm to batter aside Tamun'Ra's scythe as it swept toward him, heedless of the damage it caused to his limb, opening a hole in his foes defense. With a shriek of scraping metal, his own wicked blade snaked out and sliced across Tamun'Ra's head, sending him reeling while a tiny sliver of his skull spun off into the mists. Tamun'Ra spun around to ward off a follow up strike, but found his opponent had retreated several paces and now stood motionless, simply staring at him. Strangely, Tamon'Ra remained immobile himself now, his scythe still held defensively before him, but no other movement could be seen from him. Then, Tamun'Ra's eyes seem to suddenly increase in intensity; burning like twin suns. His hands clasped and unclasped upon his weapon and his entire frame shook as if straining mightily against some unseen force. As indeed it was, for unnoticed by those watching, the final blow of Osiris had affected a brief opening into the metal skull of his rival. While this minor wound had been almost instantly repaired, it had remained open long enough. Long enough for a single mindshackle scarab to slip inside and make its way to the mechanical apparatus that now functioned as Tamun'Ra's brain. As two warriors so evenly matched, this was the nudge that tipped the scales. Tamun'Ra's struggles gradually slowed, then ceased altogether, his body straightening and his scythe moving to a vertical position beside him as he came to attention; Osiris had the mastery. But even so, Tamun'Ra's mind was not fully dominated and he glared at Osiris, his hatred scorching the air between them. "You won't be able to hold me forever!", Taman'Ra ground slowly out. Osiris stared impassively at him for a moment before replying, "I don't need to. I have no desire for an unwilling servant to plot behind me within my ranks. I wish only for my orders to be followed without question this day. For battle will soon be joined and it is MY will that shall bring us victory."
Niiiiice! Finally received my fix. You really need to do a coarse of some sort, Fenix. You have some skills worth building on, mate. All these great videos from Luke, and nothing. Suddenly there's three paragraphs from a ten minute fisticuffs?
I write when something inspires me and when and where that inspiration comes is rather nebulous. As example, let me explain how I came to write this one: I watched the duel and then paused the video thinking how cool it was and how I should write something describing it, but as it was my mind was blank and nothing was really coming to me. So, I unpaused the vid and as it started running through the game setup, my mind began to try and come up with a story reason to explain the roll off deciding victory between the two. I though it made sense that it would be a battle of wills after the blows. But what would cause one to submit to the other? Then, it hit me. The winning overlord had mindshackle scarabs! So, I paused the vid again and it all rolled from there. I actually wrote the thing in reverse; starting with the third paragraph and ending with the first. I really just write for fun. I could take some courses and expand my horizons concerning it, but I'm wary of it turning into work...
Know what you mean. My art was a passion. Then when I became a commercial artist it turned into work. But now I use my art for charities, on my own time. It's become a passion again, ( certainly doesn't hurt the hobby either). You don't have to turn it into a carrier, Fenix. Just refine your natural skills to enhance your passion. Believe me, mate. You'll receive a lot more joy from your writing.
Na. Was a commercial artist in the 90's. Local adds. signs and airbrush murals. The art I do now is donated to charities and they auction them off to private homes. If you Google, stippling art, you'll see what form of art I do now. when I replace my scanner, I'll upload some onto my facebook page. facebook.com/danredlion.923
Great batrep as usual guys yeah that Avatar was awesome he's really underrated I think as he gives some great buff's to the units around him. Thanks for sharing, cheers.
Old I know but once again, the most beautiful terrain. I know how you did it as simple as it is, its just so much more top notch than anything else out there.
At the beginning, I have an image of two eldar Rangers watching the duel. "Hey, shouldn't we be fighting them?" "Don't knock it. It keeps us all alive." "I know, but it's kinda boring." "You have an immortal lifespan and a lot of popcorn. Deal with it."
Absolutely loved this battle report, but I still cant get past the fact Eldar have no seer council. Probably the strongest part of an Eldar army this size is the pyschers. Thank you for making such awesome content though. Been watching your content for years now, definitely keeps getting better and better.
Awesome video, I have a question... there's an attachment you can put on a razorback tank that's like spikes on the front, can someone tell me what it does please? Thanks
honestly didnt expect such an assault heavy battle from the title, very interesting indeed :) are there any single units/squads that can handle more then 3 wraiths at a time for equal points?
When the deathmarks got hit by the D, I think you are supposed to roll on the D chart for each member hit, not one roll per unit. Unless I have been playing it wrong
Brutal. Great batrep. Think the titan started to have less of an effect towards the end. Once it had potted the big targets. Quite right, the Avatar of khaine consistently wrecked face right up until the end.(I bet the necrons actually doubted for a moment if they could stop him before he got to them)
Cracking Job!!!! The paint job looks fantastic on all your armies! I've just started a Guard army so i'm just watching over again your painting tutorial. Do you spray all the vehicles with uniform grey also?? Ive just purchased the Armoured Fist box set so i'm just thinking how to start the Chimera. The paint scheme you've used looks amazing and fast, i've got this feeling with Guard, speed is going to be the key as im going to be painting a boat load of these guys. Any tips or advice you have will be greatfully appreciated! cheers fella
Yes vehicles sprayed and painted exactly the same way:)Only extra is the zig zaag camo pattern...done by painting pattern with black paint then sharpening the edge of it with a thinned down light grey using a detail brush:)
As I'm still very (very ...) new to WH40K (despite being old enough to remember when it was invented ...), why did you decide to play across the width of the table, and not down its length..?
Ahhh ... fair enough ... If I'm correct, it is easier to attack in width, as (as you say), it is easier to visualise what each individual units ... also makes for an easier (ergo quicker) battle, because you are not attacking defense in depth ... The reason why I probably prefer a 'lengthwise' battle, is that I'm rather fond of long-range engagements (you should see my ever-growing collection of books on snipers and sniping...), not to metion the idea of super-heavies and Titans firing at each other over ranged distances... that would make for a fun battrep, although God knows how many points that would be ... :-p
***** Due to various reasons, I've missed out on watching your videos, so must go back and catch up, especally those battreps you mentioned ... Oh, and fyi ... I am hoping, in the next year, or two, to build my first army ... a friend gave me a collection of Eldar, which I need to touch up the paintwork on, but hopefuly my main army is a pure Elysian Drop Troop, complete with vehicles and air support ... I'll need some practice with them first, but since I have never seen a pure Drop Troop army being fielded (except a few models in a support rôle ...), if you are still around in, say, three-four years time, fancy a challenge? :-P
well fleshbane wouldn't matter, as they are wounding on 2s already, but they did forget master crafted. Also they didn't use phylactery (it will not die) either
The Best Apocaliptic Game Ever ! It was so funny to see those necrone warlords fighting each other to take the fully comand of both armys And even more to the the draw XD The Eldar Titan it's amazing I never see fall that thing or even being wounded And it's excellent to shot big things and what a pete the super hevy tank he wouldn't able to do nothing. The C'tan has done pretty well too. Congratulations to everione it was a delicious video This is the kind of shit that we want to see Give more of this drug Luke I need it je je. I recomend your videos to everbody who has a minimum posibility to like warhamer40k because ,guys ,you do really well. I have to admit that the Eldar had done much more that I tought in a begining but the Necrone initiative and number (even tree monolith and schyces we are crasy) So to Sum Up Keep doing like that congrata to everione and I hope to see mord battle like this on the Channel Maybe Comander Pinpoint and Titanfall can revenge Prince Yiarel and Show who rules the galaxy in this dark time agains The Overlords Osiris and Ta me'n Ra (I animated Ta men Ra in their fight) So a Tau Revenge or even a aliance of Elder an Tau An ancient but wise race demanding help to a inexpert and young race but stroger as their youth with her cast fire warriors with and spirit so though as their battelsuits. See you in the next video 😊❤️
great battle report but am I the only one who caught on that the Eldar Scorpion tank does not have titan holofields it has inhanced holofields which is a 4+ invulnerable save.Pointy ears for life
Am I the only one having trouble with the blur on the video ? Looks like only the up part of the screen is neat, and the low part including the middle is all blurry. On a big screen everything appears blurry, it's a shame really
I wake up after a long day of work, and see a 5000pt, 2hr-long video from StrikingScorpion. Today is gonna be a good day.
lol:)
it was worth it just for the necron lords battle in the beginning
It was great fun:)
StrikingScorpion82 how may wounds do the lords have? i lost tracked
3 wounds each:)
#Necrons
marcus anthony you roll two dice for scatters
no channel could do an apocalypse as well as ss82. this is definitely the best warhammer channel out there and these apocalypse games are brilliant. keep up the great content!
thanks. We plan to do more:)
YEEEEAAAAA! APOCALYPSE!!!
Quite honestly, you could make 1v1 arena matchups (Best of 3, Best of 5, etc) and we'd watch it.
That Necron Overlord fight was superior to Manny vs Pacquiao.
Yeah good idea:)
Manny Vs Pacquiao lol. Never saw him fight himself.
More Apocalypse from the first 40k channel I started watching. And one with Eldar. This is a good day :)
:)
that necron challenge is why we can't ever have necron vs necron battle reports XD
also deathmark "mark for death" special rule only applies when the enemy have a unit come in from reserves (meaning you can come in on their turn and shoot after they move but you have to shoot the unit that caused the death marks to come on) if you don't they still wound on 2+ regardless if it's your turn or your opponents
lol:)
Your gaming boards always look stunning. Leading the way for RUclips batreps 👍
thanks:)
Woohoo, Eldar and Necrons! My two favourites! Those were the two armies I was going back and forth between when choosing my first one a few months ago. It has become Eldar! I hope to see more of these!
I played the OG craft worlds ( with quin seasoning) as a teen. Looking to get back in as necron!!( New codex, and I have no old models :( )
Another excellent apocalypse battle report, superb quality, a very enjoyable watch.
No problem thanks:)
Boy; if there was ever a time to add a Seer Council to your Pointy ears, Luke, this was it. 5 Warlocks, 2 Seers. Invisible Scorpions, the Avatar re-rolling saves, the Titan re-rolling hits..... Big difference, mate. Eldar without psychers is like Necrons without their reanimation. Was a visual feast as usual though. Thanks for the extra effort. Apoc games are the best.
Just added a story blurb for this game. Funny how the stand out moment of the game was before it even started.
Thanks:) An invisible Avatar would have been pretty handy lol:)
> Love Necrons
> Love Aspect Warriors
> No idea who to root for
Imagine the leadership fight if the army wasn't Necrons but instead was Orks... I can see that getting out of hand.
Yeah....would just turn in to a massive brawel:)
That's great, thanks! O if you do ever find time to add a painting reference for the Guard that would be awesome but again,thanks for all your help and also for the great battle reports!! Seriously this is one of, or if not THE best channel for Gamesworkshop.

This is what I asked for in your last batrep... my wish came true....
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEES
:)
Hours of necron duels. Love this
I´m not 100% sure, but I think that you are suppose to choose a target and then draw to see what kinde of shoot the Tesseract vault fires.
KhazModan1 I am a necron player and i can confirm this.
yea.but to me gw needs to fix that,if they fix that one rule,it will be playable
KhazModan1 at the very least, make the clan power re-rollable
I knew it would be neurons. one of your favourite armies. very enjoyable game to watch. watched it last night with a friend. think you inspired him to dig his necrons out and get playing again. wasn't surprised about the result, but the flying spaghetti monster is a bit scary isn't it. cheers luke. Bring on the next one.
No problem thanks:)
yea!!!! apocalypse with necrons!!!
NECROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A duel, Brilliant!!! Leadership tests mandatory, and a freaking tie!? Gg. thanks for sharing.
Your terrain just looks stunning and immersive as always, keep up the great work!!
thanks:)
Damn good game, love these apocalypse games, very cool thing the duel of the necron lords! Hope to see more of these fights for command in future apocalypse games, nice work!

Beautiful! Nice seeing the Falcon in action. I recently picked up an Armourcast Tempest, which is the 1990s version :)
thanks...glad you enjoyed it:)
Great presentation as always.
Great report. I'm still itching to see the Orks and Guard square off in Apocalypse though.
Yes we are looking forward to that one:)
Amazing dark blue color scheme for those Necrons!
Did somebody say "NEWcrons"?
*Instant leadership infighting*
Great batrep as usual guys yeah that Avatar was awesome he's really underrated I think as he gives some great buff's to the units around him. Thanks for sharing, cheers.
thanks. Yeah he is a really good unit and very underrated:)
I've never clicked on a video faster then this because this is the first time I've ever seen Necrons in a Apocalypse game!
lol. Hope you enjoyed it:)
Old I know but once again, the most beautiful terrain. I know how you did it as simple as it is, its just so much more top notch than anything else out there.
Thanks again for the comments. Glad you enjoy the content:)
Best warhammer channel i have seen. wish i had those armies
Thanks StrikingScorpion82 for doing Apocalypse vids. It encourages me to finish painting my own stuff!
No problem:)
Nice start to the game with the Necron lords battle it out for leadership.
thanks:)
best part eaisly was the duel at the beginning
Was good fun to play:)
Nice to see two heinous xenos killing each other in devastating numbers. Guilliman approves! Lovely batrep as usual ^^
thanks:)
Osiris forgot his weapon was Master-crafted. He could rerolled a single missed hit each round
Your style lends itself to Apocalypse ggwp
At the beginning, I have an image of two eldar Rangers watching the duel.
"Hey, shouldn't we be fighting them?"
"Don't knock it. It keeps us all alive."
"I know, but it's kinda boring."
"You have an immortal lifespan and a lot of popcorn. Deal with it."
lol:)
That's great! I'll check his channel out, Thanks again.
I hope there will also be more skittarii. They looked very nice. Awesome to see more apocalypse.
Ah yes, a glorious battle of the ancients!
Absolutely loved this battle report, but I still cant get past the fact Eldar have no seer council. Probably the strongest part of an Eldar army this size is the pyschers. Thank you for making such awesome content though. Been watching your content for years now, definitely keeps getting better and better.
Thanks for the feedback:)
the black necron paint scheme is so epic, go necrons, also APOCALYPSE!! XD
Hello Scorpion, where do you play in the UK??? And clubs you play at?
Awesome video, I have a question... there's an attachment you can put on a razorback tank that's like spikes on the front, can someone tell me what it does please? Thanks
Tunazzy Trollz They are called dozer blades and they mean you can re roll dangerous terrain tests
Thank you
honestly didnt expect such an assault heavy battle from the title, very interesting indeed :) are there any single units/squads that can handle more then 3 wraiths at a time for equal points?
Was a great game. Wraiths are such a solid unit:)
It was a good game 😉 enjoyable
Was good fun! Great Cron army Ben:)
I thought the player who deploys first decides if he wants to go first or second..
When the deathmarks got hit by the D, I think you are supposed to roll on the D chart for each member hit, not one roll per unit. Unless I have been playing it wrong
1hour and 52 minutes of ancient robots fighting eldar better have brought popcorn
lol:)
Brutal. Great batrep. Think the titan started to have less of an effect towards the end. Once it had potted the big targets. Quite right, the Avatar of khaine consistently wrecked face right up until the end.(I bet the necrons actually doubted for a moment if they could stop him before he got to them)
finaly the : TESSERACT VAULT !!!
Hello mate, great battle report like usual! Quick question... which blue did you use as a base colour for your Army. Cheers
thanks. I use Sotek Green. Full details in the Eldar Painting Tutorial on the channel:)
That's great, did you use a brush on the vehicles also?? The paint job looks amazing on all your armies but I especially love the Eldar!!
Oh yes...all brush work. The key is keeping the paint thin and not letting it go thicker:)
Cracking Job!!!! The paint job looks fantastic on all your armies! I've just started a Guard army so i'm just watching over again your painting tutorial. Do you spray all the vehicles with uniform grey also?? Ive just purchased the Armoured Fist box set so i'm just thinking how to start the Chimera. The paint scheme you've used looks amazing and fast, i've got this feeling with Guard, speed is going to be the key as im going to be painting a boat load of these guys. Any tips or advice you have will be greatfully appreciated! cheers fella
Yes vehicles sprayed and painted exactly the same way:)Only extra is the zig zaag camo pattern...done by painting pattern with black paint then sharpening the edge of it with a thinned down light grey using a detail brush:)
Always love your vids. Except when the Tau lose ;D Unbelievable to see the Eldar lose THAT BAD, never would've thought.
Yes the Necrons did well:)
whats the board itself made of?
As an avid necron fan loved this, any reason you didn't select any apocalypse formations?
We were both happy using the strong Decurion Detatchment rules and Canoptek Harvests:)
Fair play - they are potent and clearly work at scale too. I'd love to see some of those ludicrous Necron apocalypse formations in play one day.
That's a beautiful board you're playing on.
thanks:)
As I'm still very (very ...) new to WH40K (despite being old enough to remember when it was invented ...), why did you decide to play across the width of the table, and not down its length..?
A battle on a wide front looks better and means units can engage easier:)
Ahhh ... fair enough ... If I'm correct, it is easier to attack in width, as (as you say), it is easier to visualise what each individual units ... also makes for an easier (ergo quicker) battle, because you are not attacking defense in depth ...
The reason why I probably prefer a 'lengthwise' battle, is that I'm rather fond of long-range engagements (you should see my ever-growing collection of books on snipers and sniping...), not to metion the idea of super-heavies and Titans firing at each other over ranged distances... that would make for a fun battrep, although God knows how many points that would be ... :-p
Oh yeah...length ways can be great too...a good number of our other Apoc games are played that way:)
***** Due to various reasons, I've missed out on watching your videos, so must go back and catch up, especally those battreps you mentioned ...
Oh, and fyi ... I am hoping, in the next year, or two, to build my first army ... a friend gave me a collection of Eldar, which I need to touch up the paintwork on, but hopefuly my main army is a pure Elysian Drop Troop, complete with vehicles and air support ... I'll need some practice with them first, but since I have never seen a pure Drop Troop army being fielded (except a few models in a support rôle ...), if you are still around in, say, three-four years time, fancy a challenge? :-P
Cool...enjoy collecting:)
I like to imagine there really were 10,000 years that passed as those immortal and tireless Necron overlords fought it out lol.
I could imagine it happening lol:)
I thought he was using void reaper so he would have hade master crafted and flesh bane?
Timmythe lambinator yes he never used mastercrafted.
well fleshbane wouldn't matter, as they are wounding on 2s already, but they did forget master crafted.
Also they didn't use phylactery (it will not die) either
You are right....we forgot about that rule. Would have helped a bit:)
Will there be an orks apocalypse batrep?
We hope to:)
YESSSS!!!
Robotic legions fighting androgynous space-elfs on an apocalyptic scale:
i gotta fill my vape...^^
Excellent battle, brilliant table. I wished that the other sector of the battlefield had a little more meaning to it.
D-scythes might have dealt with those pesky wraiths. Cheese deals with cheese!
Have to declare a target first then roll the power for the Tesseract Vault.
Top 10 Anime Battles at the beginning haha
woooo! necron master race!
awsome mini warlord challenge lmao
Don't Shining Spears have hit and run? You could have escaped the fight with the Tomb Blades at any time...
No they don't. I wish they did:)
The Best Apocaliptic Game Ever !
It was so funny to see those necrone warlords fighting each other to take the fully comand of both armys
And even more to the the draw XD
The Eldar Titan it's amazing
I never see fall that thing or even being wounded
And it's excellent to shot big things and what a pete the super hevy tank he wouldn't able to do nothing.
The C'tan has done pretty well too.
Congratulations to everione it was a delicious video
This is the kind of shit that we want to see
Give more of this drug Luke I need it je je.
I recomend your videos to everbody who has a minimum posibility to like warhamer40k
because ,guys ,you do really well.
I have to admit that the Eldar had done much more that I tought in a begining but the Necrone initiative and number (even tree monolith and schyces we are crasy)
So to Sum Up
Keep doing like that congrata to everione and I hope to see mord battle like this on the Channel
Maybe Comander Pinpoint and Titanfall can revenge Prince Yiarel and Show who rules the galaxy in this dark time agains The Overlords Osiris and Ta me'n Ra
(I animated Ta men Ra in their fight)
So a Tau Revenge or even a aliance of Elder an Tau
An ancient but wise race demanding help to a inexpert and young race but stroger as their youth with her cast fire warriors with and spirit so though as their battelsuits.
See you in the next video 😊❤️
thanks. Glad you liked it. We hope to do more!:)
why do not ppl use necron destroyers ? they are not so bad in 7th edition. i think
тарас ангел 1 destroyer cult and 1 harvest would have been better than 2 harvests against eldar
Couldn't the wraithknight have rerolled his charge due to being a jump creature?
You should done "it will not die" every turn to :D Endless fight.
lol:)
wish i could have a game of 40k again but everyone i know has stop gaming years a go
Necrons its good!!! thank you!
Epic!
Who win?
Why do I have this vision of the Eldar prize just sneaking off in the course of the dance off?
lol:)
great battle report but am I the only one who caught on that the Eldar Scorpion tank does not have titan holofields it has inhanced holofields which is a 4+ invulnerable save.Pointy ears for life
22 minutes in still fighting over who is in charge
Am I the only one having trouble with the blur on the video ? Looks like only the up part of the screen is neat, and the low part including the middle is all blurry.
On a big screen everything appears blurry, it's a shame really
Needed the Dark kin to webway in and save the day. Lol.
They could have swept in an made a big difference lol:)
oy yes necron tesseract its very devastating thing:)
If the Eldar had used the time Necrons were fighting eachother like at all they'd have saved Karandras before the game even started.
I love Necrons
Sadly the tankyness of the overlords didn't shine through in actual combat
Woo!
Just saw the armies. Before this game even starts I'm calling this a necron getting tabled with Eldar having 8 large d blasts..
lol
D weapons don't count for much if they never get to fire
Wraiths be like "nope."
You've never played against Apo Necrons, have you?
you definitely need more seers and warlocks
I love Necrons because they are ancient and cool and also look like skeletons going to war!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow you're really enthusiastic
47:25 Price Yriel :')
when are we gonna see some orks in apocalypse games???????
Yes we hope to in the future:)
Not using whipcoils.
You don't get reanimation or feel no pain against Strength D
how about a game ? admech vs elder
that would be good:)
StrikingScorpion82 is there a way we can discuss it ?
StrikingScorpion82 have you an email or fb ? so we can discus the game if up for it
I predict a Necron victory.
