Appreciate that, and that's the plan! Gonna be a bit until the next event, but we'll have our Warpfire Challenge kicking off next week where customers challenge and we'll cover those games!
I'll probably be playing the rats for the foreseeable future on here, but I do get a pretty wife variety of opponents so you'll definitely see some Khorne and Ogors!
Damn man, another blowout! I have been playing some different stuff, dabbling in different units. I don't play super often and it all looks so fun. I'm going to be trying a list pretty similar to yours, with a few changes. Most notable Slynk Skittershank over PCBs and warpgrinder. They're just so good and fun. Don't imagine I will play it as well as you, but I'll do my best! Thanks for all the great play
Skittershank and crew are some of my favorite Skaven models, so best of luck to you on those guys! Fingers crossed the ninja rat rumors for 4th are true.
The opponent didn't have a great gameplan. Going first is a mistake, but ok, sometimes you'll go first and need a good plan for that, it shouldn't be game deciding. They had no reason to take all three objectives, the liberators could have screened the dracolines, so they can pile-in and fight whatever charges the libs. Still problematic if you get fight on death off, of course, but the dracolines do not want to get hit first. The tempestors are good for shooting at rats, should have had them in reserve. I guess the setup in the middle was ok with fulminators as counter charge, hard to put them in range and not vulnarable to a double. Definately want to try to stay as far back as possible with the questors to not suddenly be in blizzard range.
I like how you share your thoughts behind each moves. I learn alot from that, mistakes included. Keep up the good work! I'm a stormcast fan its just quite sad they are in quite a bad spot competitive. In this game, the moment i saw he didn't properly screen out his fulminators, i knew it's gonna to be tough lol. A lot of times, games are won or lost based on turn 1 positioning.
There are still some Stormcast lists that are doing well, but it's definitely one where you have to play things just right; you guys don't have the luxury of big 20 man Clanrats screens. I think there was even a Stormcast player that made top 8 at LVO this year!
Thanks a lot for those recaps. Really well done. I'm curious about what ability allows you to use the same charge roll for many units. I don't see it on Skreech's warscroll so it is a subfaction thing? Thanks, I want to watch for that kind of gimmic if I face Skavens ;)
It's called 3 Clawsteps and is an ability the whole army gets when you bring 3 Masterclan heroes in a Skaven list; in this case it's the Grey Seer, Grey Seer, and Skreech who count!
Stormcast seems like they've hit the critical mass for TOO elite. Every time I see them on the field I just want more things. They lose a single unit and it's like "There goes 1/6 of my army."
Please continue to do these. They are far and away the best battle reports going

@warpfireminis Will you be Skaven for the most part? Hoping for either Khorne or Ogors to show up on either side at some point

I really enjoy how you breakdown your approach to the game.
Your step-by-step maneuvers are great to show tactical care-thank you. I always love seeing you string out a clanrat unit for maximum efficiency.
I do love me some Clanrats! The 20 man lines just do so much.

Thank you for these! Maybe you could make a video with basic Skaven tactics? Like a general video on what you should be doing to win games with Skaven
As always great work, every vid from you makes days better ;D
Oh wonderful, another reason to procrastinate work. Just what I was looking for :)

These videos are great, loving them.
Thanks Jordan love these videos
Yes-yes excellent-awesome summary battle report, thank you.
Definetively a mistake to go first by the looks of it!
keep this series up, it's amazing! Thanks for uploading more!
I agree on this one, making me go first and then trying to hit me with a mean double was likely the better move!
Impulse response.. I love seeing these! Daily dose of game vibes.

ok found it, it's the "ALWAYS THREE CLAWSTEPS AHEAD" masterclan battle trait. pretty powerfull !
Loved it!
Do you record the match or do you just remember this with a steel trap of a memory? I can't even remember if I put on underwear some days :C
I normally just take a picture of deployment and then one each round if I can, then write down notes after the game!
Always enjoy these while I paint my minis
Skaven with verminlords and teleports seem brutal af on the double.
All that respecting the fact SCE wasn't a meta list
Stormcast seems like they've hit the critical mass for TOO elite. Every time I see them on the field I just want more things. They lose a single unit and it's like "There goes 1/6 of my army."
sure it looks like that when you get lucky and have free reign to hit everything on the board exactly how you want.
