This is how a batrep should be done! Perfect length, great narration and editing. Doesn't hurt that the armies look cool. Great job guys! Here's hoping for more Orcs and Dwarfs :) cheers!
Great to see a couple buddies having fun with this hobby. I also like the way they’ve presented the gist of the game with enough detail and flavor, but without letting the video run too long for viewers to enjoy. Good sportsmanship, food looking armies and dang impressive spell effect models.
Awesome battle report with beautiful models and scenery! You played it right with the Zombie Dragon Giving Ground- I initially thought it was "impassible" terrain, but the Give Ground rule on p. 155 just says "terrain" so contacting ANY terrain will stop the unit from giving ground further. You guys played it correct! However, the Wraith wouldn't be able to join a unit of skeletons. Ethereal on p. 167: "Characters that are not ethereal cannot join units that are, and vice versa."
Great presentation and turn handling. Just the perfect flow. Beautiful armies , scrneries and especially the spells was the best I seen 🎉 Hope you come back with more battles!🤪
The Vortex templates are incredible! It is since the game was released that I am thinking about creating my own templates. I think I will take inspiration from these! Thanks! Great game!
Great game both. I’ve had a very long and somewhat horrible day. This has made me smile, laugh and wish I was with you while you played. Thank you both. Great content!
Haven't finished watching the full video yet. Love the Vampire Count conversion. The old Morgan Le Fey makes a goovampire countessss. One small issue with your force. Sadly, Wraiths can't join none Ethereal units now. A real pain as I too used to love the old Wraith leading some Skeletons aesthetic. Will watch the rest when I get time.
I can feel the weight of that metal black coach with the plastic horses in my hand while watching this. That thing used to terrorize my poor little goblins!
its subtle, but I love how the skeleton warriors are posde identically to each other. its a great contrast from 'shambling hordes' of the zombies to 'automata'', which is in a way even more unsettling.
Heck yeah! Great to see such a high quality bat rep of TOW between two fine gents! Really love the scenery, Eric! It truly makes the game that much more immersive! Your templates are top tier, wonderful job. Can't wait to see more!
So cool! I've been a VC collector for years, but have never been able to play a match of Warhammer. Amazing to finally see army similar to my own in action!
Absolutely love this. More of the same please! Quick question: because the Cairn Wraith is ethereal, can he actually join a non-ethereal unit of skeletons? Keep up the great work!
Seeing such bad dice repeatedly on the orcs broke my heart. Just sad. Good looking battle report though. Dice games can be like that, sometimes you win, sometimes your dice throw the game for you.
He's Azhag The Slaughterer! I think not yet alive on the Old World timeline. No reason not to bring him back made to order tho! Also if you want a smoking hot Wyvern check out Avatars of War. They've got two looks and both are stunning and definitely inspired by this version
@@SquareBasedOldWorld Oh I didn't realise. Yeah I'd love it and I think they'd sell a tonne of them, maybe they'll do a second pass of old world stuff? One can dream. I'll check those out thanks
My dude you made the same mistake I did in my O&G vs VC battle report😂 Wraith is ethereal and can’t join non ethereal units like skellies. I’m jealous of all that terrain and fully painted and based armies
A shame about the Black Coach, but as someone who has been playing for over 20 years I have literally *never* seen it do anything noteworthy. Here’s hoping for more Old World! Mordheim too.
I like the idea that the Vampire's illusions make her look beautiful _to the beholder._ So when the entire group of Greenskins rush her at once, they see her as a bloody demon of war. So breathtakingly beautiful to the Greenskins, they briefly forget how to krump.
Fantastic battle report! I had a question I hope you can answer. Where did you get that grassy mat / rug that you're playing on? Where could I buy one like that? Thank you!
I'm only sad there wasn't more backstory about why this particular fight was happening, like with the Bretonnians vs. Tomb Kings double feature. Always find a good narrative hook helps me stay invested in battle reports.
Great video and battle loved. Please bring us more Battle reports of Old World. I am loving the game so far. Questions, the move through cover sp. Rule. Says no negative to movement characteristics. Dangerous and difficult terrain. Does this include mountains and hill's? In a battle now and my friend disagrees with. He claimed that hill's are different.
Math wise it's really not outrageous, and if you're taking a lore familiar to guarantee it and the ogre blade you're not going to be able to fit in a ward save.
Random question here, Eric: What is the exact name/brand of the beige-brown color you used for the rims of your bases? I really appreciate the attention to detail in the way you design your battlefields (and magic vortexes). Some battlereport-channels do that too generic they are just about playing the game I guess but the way you do it really makes it such a pleasure to watch it (for me). Greetings from 5th/6th edition player from Germany, slowly painting his way back into the old world.
Both armies are so nicely painted. The Black Coach is a bit dated at this point but with the right paint job like the one here it still looks amazing! Btw, Cairn Wraith can't join the group of skellies. Ethereal can't join non-Ethereal units and vice versa in TOW. Also may I ask where you got that countess model? It's really cool, I don't recognise it though.
Love it. Unfortunately, and much to my own disappointment too as a long time member of the bone zone, your Wraith cannot join a unit that is not also Ethereal. Per pg. 167 of the rules "Characters that are not Ethereal cannot join units that are, and vice versa." I really like your sabot bases for your monsters. I need to do the same for my undead characters on big beasties.
@@EricsHobbyBattleReports yeah. Stick them in a unit with the Cursed Book and you used to be golden. Not sure what the point of them is now apart from running around as a lone operative and maybe forcing a panic test on a low Ld units by charging them? Only unit they can join is Spirit Hosts (and because of the different base sizes they then go off to the side of the unit meaning that there's a chance they won't be in base-to-base so will just get the one attack).
@blastvader the Vampire Counts list is a mess in a lot of ways. Sure it can create an absolute monster of a force, that just screams the opponent into oblivion. However outside of that build it has a lotnof balance issues.
Cool spell templates!
This is how a batrep should be done! Perfect length, great narration and editing. Doesn't hurt that the armies look cool. Great job guys! Here's hoping for more Orcs and Dwarfs :) cheers!
Both armies honestly look breathtaking. People who say old warhammer fantasy models look bad haven't seen them painted to this standard.
Aw shux! I even painted some of mine!
I couldn't agree more. Loved the foot of Gork as well! Just gorgeous 🦶
People say that? Even averagely painted armies look amazing ranked up
I love that foot of gork and crystal column (plus both armies are killer). Thanks for posting!

Never have I clicked so fast on a video. Best battlereports out there!
Your Vampire Counts army looks incredible as always!
Love to see TOW content! Keep up the excellent battle reports!
Love your battle reports. And beautiful armies.
Great battle report and nice painting from both of you.
This takes me back. I never had armies this well painted but the old world will always have my heart
Loved it! Awesome armies and spell effects, more please :)

yes! more battles please. Dragons need toning down a bit me thinks..
I can feel the weight of that metal black coach with the plastic horses in my hand while watching this. That thing used to terrorize my poor little goblins!
Sick base converter for the Undead Dragon!
Yooooooo welcome back! I loved your first two videos and i was bummee out that there was only two videos :( I hope you're able to make more ❤
Keep up those battlerep, well composed so I can follow them and understand them properly! WAAAAAAGHHHH
Welcome back Eric 😊
Amazing armies and board set up. The templates are great, especially the Foot of Gork.
Great armies, great terrain, great opponents having a great game. The epitome of warhammer 💪
There's good and then theres getting Spectral Doppelganger off with an Ogre Blad Vampire. Fantastic game! Cant wait to see more!
awesome video guys, pretty impressive that the Dragon managed to win the game pretty much solo
Beautiful armies, beautiful table, 2 great guys (love Val!), wonderful batrep!
Love you too
“Now I suddenly wanna go home real bad “ 😂
its subtle, but I love how the skeleton warriors are posde identically to each other. its a great contrast from 'shambling hordes' of the zombies to 'automata'', which is in a way even more unsettling.
Glad you noticed! I tried to give em that feel exactly
Great collab! Fan of both SB and EHW, so thoroughly enjoyed this one.
10/10 very bassed
Heck yeah! Great to see such a high quality bat rep of TOW between two fine gents! Really love the scenery, Eric! It truly makes the game that much more immersive! Your templates are top tier, wonderful job. Can't wait to see more!
Great armies and great batrep!!! And this "Foot of Gork"-template...awesome!
FINALLY!!! I BEEN HEARING ABOUT THIS ON SQUARE BASED FOR SO LONG
So cool! I've been a VC collector for years, but have never been able to play a match of Warhammer. Amazing to finally see army similar to my own in action!
Poor Val! I think Eric was lucky to get SpectralDoppleganger as a spell and de 2 double 6s! Very cool battle report!
An inspiration for a recent attempt at using a very similar build: )
@@SquareBasedOldWorld Did you roll good?
Awesome armies. Always love to see the blades on your vampire counts, did the same green effect for mine and it looks great
Absolutely love this. More of the same please! Quick question: because the Cairn Wraith is ethereal, can he actually join a non-ethereal unit of skeletons? Keep up the great work!
I didn't expect Val to be in command of the Orcs (and gobbos). What a game!
In the future I will demand double billing
Glad to see you've returned! Really great bat reps your making.
I love those spell templates! Amazing and immersive!
Great work boys! I actually like seeing the dice rolls personally :)
We showed some important ones! I think theres a balance to be struck
@@EricsHobbyBattleReports I think you've struck a good balance between brevity and showing important parts of the battle.
I preferred this presentation with just the most important dice rolls!😊
Good battle report, great looking gaming table.
Seeing such bad dice repeatedly on the orcs broke my heart. Just sad. Good looking battle report though. Dice games can be like that, sometimes you win, sometimes your dice throw the game for you.
Another awesome battle report - thanks Eric!
Two of my favorite personalities in one video! Awesomesauce.
Yeayyy new batrep! Love the matchup in this one.
Beguile has always been such a good vamp power, really hard to deal with if you don't have a bunch of shooting
Awesome battle report. Keep’’em coming 🤘🏼🔥🔥🤘🏼those spell templates are amazing.
It sounded like you said orcwad! Hey orcwad! lol
Very fun to watch
I love that black orc warboss on dragon model, so much grander than the current orc warboss on wyvern. I wish GW would reproduce that!
Its a great model for sure
He's Azhag The Slaughterer! I think not yet alive on the Old World timeline. No reason not to bring him back made to order tho!
Also if you want a smoking hot Wyvern check out Avatars of War. They've got two looks and both are stunning and definitely inspired by this version
@@SquareBasedOldWorld Oh I didn't realise. Yeah I'd love it and I think they'd sell a tonne of them, maybe they'll do a second pass of old world stuff? One can dream. I'll check those out thanks
This looks really good!
I sure do love the subtle nuance of vampire counts armies strategy … Throw garbage forward and kill their army with big scary dragon.
Goddamn, what a game lads!
Love it! TOW hype!
Val just brought his tournament army
Superb armies !!!
I am going to enjoy this :) see you in 40 min
Awesome!
My dude you made the same mistake I did in my O&G vs VC battle report😂 Wraith is ethereal and can’t join non ethereal units like skellies.
I’m jealous of all that terrain and fully painted and based armies
long have we waited. lovely!
A shame about the Black Coach, but as someone who has been playing for over 20 years I have literally *never* seen it do anything noteworthy.
Here’s hoping for more Old World! Mordheim too.
But it's sooooo cooooool!

Hmm interesting thought
Where did you get that foot of gork
Very bassed, loved it!
great video. where is the foot of gork model from?
Can't wait for more old world batreps
Miniatures are mindblowing!
Great battle report!
lol that foot of gork is so good
Looks good!
Amazing armies!
Sooo cool! I Love this Battle Report.
Where can i See your Army list?
Greets from Germany.
Love it! Whats the Warboss on Wyvern model?
Maybe I missed it but I would love a tour of your studio/game room. I’m always looking for ideas for mine
Fantastic battle report! I had a question I hope you can answer. Where did you get that grassy mat / rug that you're playing on? Where could I buy one like that? Thank you!
Spectral Doppleganger on charge? Haven’t the Assailment spells been FAQed on charge?
I think you may be thinking of the Convayance spells. Assailments are cast when a spellcaster fights in melee.
@@stonehorsegaming Thanks; I don't know why I have the doubt, believing that also the assailments were FAQed the last time... 🤔
I'm only sad there wasn't more backstory about why this particular fight was happening, like with the Bretonnians vs. Tomb Kings double feature. Always find a good narrative hook helps me stay invested in battle reports.

Hills are just open ground as far as movement is concerned. Forrests can be declared either difficult or dangerous at the start of the game
Those skeletons spears are great. That a GW kit?
Spectral doppelgangers need to be nerfed so bad
Yeah that was outrageous lol. My dice rolls were crazy though
Math wise it's really not outrageous, and if you're taking a lore familiar to guarantee it and the ogre blade you're not going to be able to fit in a ward save.
@tEKOMANDOR123 exactly. Also hey!
Note that enhancement spells are limited to arc of sight of the wizard.
Where do you get those awesome movement trays?

Where'd you guys get your 3d printed movement trays?
found em on cults and printed em at home
🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑so hyped for this!
ORCtober minis VS Halloween minis
what model is the orc on wyvern?
I liked this video
Yes you certainly earned a subscribe hit
Both armies are so nicely painted. The Black Coach is a bit dated at this point but with the right paint job like the one here it still looks amazing!

Its the old Morgiana le Fay model from the Bretonnia range
I have the same battlemat but how do you get yours so straight and not wrinkly? 😁
By being tremendously anal about it before the game lol
Love it. Unfortunately, and much to my own disappointment too as a long time member of the bone zone, your Wraith cannot join a unit that is not also Ethereal. Per pg. 167 of the rules "Characters that are not Ethereal cannot join units that are, and vice versa."
I really like your sabot bases for your monsters. I need to do the same for my undead characters on big beasties.
Yeah I realized that after filming too. Disappointing! Wraiths always used to be able to join units
That sucks, spose it could be counted as a wight lord instead
@@EricsHobbyBattleReports yeah. Stick them in a unit with the Cursed Book and you used to be golden. Not sure what the point of them is now apart from running around as a lone operative and maybe forcing a panic test on a low Ld units by charging them?

OUUUUTRAGE!!!
Would have preferred if it was more like the style of ur previous battle reports
Much bassed
F
There used to be no overkill challenges, that was the whole point. Now why bother?
Awesome!
