"In the dark backwaters of Imperial Space, a deadly pursuit unfolds. A force of the
Emperor's finest soldiery spread across the world searching for their prey, a
mysterious hooded Astartes in black armour. They are not the only hunters on this
trail, however. Supreme Grandmaster Azrael and his Dark Angels seek to find the
traitorous Fallen before the Astra militarum and inquisition can learn of his
shameful origins and expose a secret kept for 10 millennia. Advanced scouting
parties from both forces encounter each other, and with neither willing to back
down from their hunt, the result is inevitable."

"Just because it didn't work doesn't mean it wasn't the right call."
Unironically a very reassuring and inspiring quote. Thanks, Nick!
It is possible to make every correct decision and still lose
Conversely
"Just because you got lucky doesn't mean it wasn't a stupid risk to take"
is even less commonly understood.
- Except when trying long shots for the fun of it when it does happen, then it's worth. :)
“It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness; that is life.” Jean Luc Picard
a new banger quote to add with this one.
It's true, too, especially in a dice game like 40K. While you can play the averages and take safe bets, you have literally no control over how many dice come up 1. You can make the safest, most reasonable move ever and just get a whole stack of 1s and possibly lose the game because you made the right call. It's not often, but it's something to be aware of.
Can this be the next shirt?
I don't understand the hate for splitting fire sometimes. Yes it's not always the best idea (especially if you're Tau) but what was Nick supposed to do, shoot his bolters into a Land Raider? And not into some Intercessors?? I think it's a totally reasonable thing to do with big tanks full of guns of varying strengths
Splitfire is a bit of a channel meme cuz especially nick has a tendency to end up leaving enemies with 1 wound remaining after splitting fire
@@thomy1516 And then Nick can't kill that unit for the life of him. (which has led to some losses)
Rather, splitting into the Landraider might be what the issue was. If he had focused it all on the Intercessors, even if overkill, at least they would be gone.
Well, if you're attacking something, you need it dead. You're just not maximising your chances of killing it. And as someone who rolls notoriously badly, I can't split fire or I never kill anything.
Splitting fire is great for Tau always use the right weapon for the right target.
"Time for guard to bring in 750pt of reinforcements! That'll be 110 infantry. And a cyclops demo vehicle."
Nick, keep that positive energy coming. 🤘🏻
Dude I swear I’ve never seen Nick win with the guard lol
Davids a legend, comedic timing, great player. Bring him back.
What an amazing match! David was a great Challenger and he has a gorgeous Dark Angels Army !
ohh! Dark Angels are finally back on PlayOn!!!
I love Nicks enthusiasm. The trumpet imitation when he rolled an 11 on the Charge with the riders 😂😍
He makes the Videos so fun to watch!
it is always a treat and greatly welcome to see new players on the channel! This was a great video
David having some negatively weighted dice... all those ones
Steve touched dice possibly??
What a wildly fun game! I thoroughly enjoyed David and the scenario and would love to see more of both :)
I love how David had THE WORST ROLLING LUCK I HAVE EVER SEEN and still won the game
Thats why I love this game. Even if you aren't doing much damage. If you can get ahead on VP and make it to the end of round 5 you can still win.
@klgw99 well, unless you have really bad luck. I made 2 saves my last game. Was shot off the board turn 3. Had an enemy skitarii squad wipe my 10 man intercessor squad in cover with armour of contempt (so all up +2 to my AS) and a 6 up fnp. I missed all saves and fnps.
Bring this guy back!
The more DA the better! Definitely the best bat reps on RUclips. Keep up the good work!
"Dice tell stories and this story is a sad one" xD by that point i was just in stitches man. Too funny! Thanx for such a fun game :)
Guard Nick is my favorite player. If Tycho is not on board, of course :)
Loveee the narrative. I was just listening to the lorehanmer episode about the lost primarchs
?
It's good to see my Dark Angels getting some representation, Nick. I am sad there was no explosions
Love seeing the Guard in action 🫡
LMAO THE FLEX ROLL
Watching your videos have really helped push me into the hobby more! I just started collecting and painting! I can't wait until i finish and get to meet some people and start playing the game!
David was a fun guest!! great battle!
David seems like a very nice guy! Cleary an amazing painter too! Great to see a new face on the channel :)
I recently played a game in a duos tournament against a guy who had 20 rough riders but kit bashed them to be riding dinosaurs. It was epic
Really liked the phased deployment of this game, have seen it used elsewhere and always struck as a sensible way to avoid total alpha strikes in leiu of alternating activations.
Nick. Never stop, never stopping. You're a 40k angel in this community
After that terrible DA turn 4, I counted all the DA rolls and averaged them... Statistical dice will roll an average of 3.5. DA rolled an average of 2.96.Thats outside the 97% confidence interval, which with the number of roles this game was + - 0.21. Taking that into account, there was a less than 0.001% chance of you rolling that bad. Conclusion, your dice are badly weighted.
Or the god emperor hates traitors
Wow, thanks for proving what we were all thinking. You're doing Omnissiah's work. Would love to see the formula for your math.
@artemeremin I just manually wrote a tally for all the dice, then fed it into Excel and did a standard distribution
What an absolute banger of an opening
Commander Robin, that got me
Those Attilan Rough Riders must've borrowed some equipment from Krieg lol
We used to follow the “don’t say the m-word” tradition back when I played 3rd edition 40k when I was in school - glad to see the tradition is alive and well 20 years later across the pond 😂
31:40 Just Mubin chillin' in the back 😂
Those guard miniatures looked great.
Just a nit pick here: FOB only get sustained while under orders, not just for remaining stationary.
Overall good game! Love this channel!
David vs Steve, lets goooo! Apocalyptic dice rolling ;p
I heard that discord sound at 09:12
was looking for this comment
0:20 rip the eradicator bye the tank
8:28 he didn’t miss he just caught it ;-;
Fun scenario idea. Has a Conquest vibe with the staggered reinforcements.
the 9:11 discord notification goes crazy
Awesome, this was like an actual war.
This is a phenomenal match
This is a really cool idea for a game set-up. Starting with the combat patrol and then escalating up over the course of the game is a really cool match up.
39:20 thats the first audible gasp ive given watching this show
I wish it said what music is playing.
There's usually a playlist at the end of the videos. They do pick some great music for their battle reports.
@@Chakfor It would help a lot to know Which of those songs was played at what timestamp though
@@Engitainment Can you provide us the timestamps? 😊
@@Engitainment I used spotify and just went through the list to find the song I was curious about. Might work for you? Not all of them were on there.
I remember when they used the old necromunda game trailer music (not hired gun the one before that)
Finally dark angels
The amount of 1's I saw this game was unreal.
Feel like that was the most whiffing I've seen in a 40k in 40m in some time. Felt both armies were staring each other down rather than shooting each other up. Superb sportsmanship all round though!
The delayed deployment made this game so interesting.
yes ! ive been watching and playing mechabellum and wondering how to get that feel in 40k. very cool rules that gives this game a more tactical and quicker turns
I didn't know you could CP reroll a Hazardous roll.
more narrative games would be cool to see in the future
what an awesome scenario!
Those Eradicators are beautiful. Would love to know where David got the bits for the helmets!
Who gave David Steve^s dice?
I do agree that sometimes, there is nothing wrong with split firing. But with the way the board was on turn three, Nick shouldnt have split fired so much. If he could have focused enough onto weaker units, he then couldve switched to other units after he wiped out the ones he needed to take out first.
Looks like David tank machine spirit was not so please with him yet the dice tell story.
my literal 2 favorite factions in 40K!
Is worried about anti tank power.
Didnt bring 6 aggressors with biologis fire discipline :D
Split-Fire for Victory
Overkill is the Best Kill
Focus Fire for Fun
Dice tell stories!
Someone tell him that intercessers have HEAVY and ASSULT please, it's killing me lol
I think it would be cool if you did a "tutorial battle" where you do a match in the 40k in 40 minutes but you explain everything you do so it's easier for inexperienced players to keep up and learn.
We do have a How-to-play video and we do play a demo game in there ruclips.net/video/NFnTkjk025E/видео.html . Some of our games can be a bit slower with more explanation but it is tough to do to get all that explanation from what is a typical 3 hour game into 40 minutes.
That's the game with the most whiff i've seen... EVER
This guy needs to melt his dice down and get some new ones. Holy crap.
Those cold dice! I could never be on stream, it would sound like a Jerry Springer episode, Shi-Beeeeeep-t!, SH-BEEEEEP-T!
Pretty sure Field Ordance doesnt get Sus 1 unless its affected by an order.
Bugle Chaaaaarge!!!!
lol that’s why Nick grew on me he the only one with an estatic voice in comparison to the average guy
I think David needs to buy some new dice....
i morn the Dreadnought i morn as a fellow dark angle
Tau Fusion blaster on Imperial Valkyrie? That looks like techno heresy!
Somewhere a tech priest is screeching binary into a microphone in front of a speaker the size of a space marine, then transmitting the resulting head-exploding feedback into the headset of the pilot.
Thanks for the video
My better half and me enjoyed your game, loved it 😊
We have one question maybe you or someone from thr Community can help us:
What is the game board and where can someone get it, it looks amazing!?
This is the old gw realm of battle tiles. Sadly they don’t sell it anymore.
@@PlayOnTabletop Thank you for the response! Okay, then it will be just admired in your videos 🤣
Where did you get those bits for your dark angels? I love the helmets and chains for the swords on those agressors
EDIT: Also those shoulder pads look amazing, great game 👍
Grey Tide Studios is where I got most of the STLs. Some of it is also Archie’s Forge. Both are great creators
9:10
"The chaplain will move up-"
*Discord ping*
Wait wait wait he has half the cadian troops plus kerig? Nick wins because awesome
Dark Angels for the win!
Honestly, guys, after so many years of watching You play, I begin to have creeping doubts about some of You simply being able to learn from mistakes.
I mean, it cannot be statistically possible for JT and Tycho to be winning so often while Nick, SMSteve and Mubin lose almost every time.
The latter lose regularly with their best known army while Tak gets to play very different - often new - armies and manages to win often.
I play some punishing fantasy card games (Arkham Horror LCG) and I always note down what worked and what didn't. You can't help but never make the same mistake again if You do that.
I'm just getting into war hammer and since i hate sci-fi, I find the Imperial guard/ astra militarum very interesting since its a middle finger to all of the demons, gods, aliens, orks, and spartans. But damn bro, every video i look up on this channel with the Guards this man is playing them and he literally lose 9/10 videos.
I looked him up in a video thinking "Ah they must make him play things he don't know to so the video isn't the same thing all the time" and the man still loses every match. Honestly thank god. I was worried the army I liked just sucked or something
You could always have a membership and already got to peep this awesome new vid 😂
Lets go!!
Hey guys! The imperial guard lose! Never happen before!
Does a land raider fit wholly within 6" whenever it comes in from strategic reserves?
23:41 Neighhhhhh
Could you please do another raven guard one
I dont know if its only representation but those atillan riders look like Krieg riders idw
Warhammer Newbie here👋
Why does JT call the Death Riders of Krieg "Attilan Rough Riders"? When I search for Attilan Rough Riders, they look entirely different from them.
fun game
9:10 has a random discord sound in the background.
How'd Nick shoot into combat with his flamer? Did the infantry fall back? If they did, how'd he use grenades due to falling back not being eligible to shoot? Anybody able to help clarify for me? (~20:00)
For the grenades strat, you do not need to be eligible to shoot, you just use it on a unit before they shoot, since the infantry that fell back didn’t shoot, they can use grenades. Even if they fell back, and can’t shoot they can still use grenades. The exact wording is “… has not been selected to shoot this phase.”
kind of new at the game. Can characters attack with two melee weapons or must they chose which to use each time?
Typically you can only attack with one close combat weapon unless the other weapons have the "extra attacks" special rule. In which case you attack with the close combat weapon equipped and then move onto the extra attacks weapons
Average 40k scouting groups.
Wow,some terrible dice rolling in this game. Interesting scenario,though it would have been better with fixed objectives.
Watching guard and dark angels fight is like watching two crippled kids fighting
Can you explain? I don't do a lot of lore because it leaves a bad feeling hence the question.
how the heck he has - 4 and 6 dmg ?
31:30 WTF ITS REMOTE CONTROLLED?!
What’s the song at 7:09 anyone know?
I don't understand how they gain a cp for tossing a secondary, vox static makes it seem like new orders stratagem COSTS cp to do.
You can get rid of a stratagem at the end of your turn and gain a CP for it.
New Orders is during your command phase, so at the beginning of your turn.
@@SteveB182 Thank you so much
So the only thing that (is stupid af btw) those arent actually deathwing terminators. Because of the way their datasheet is written, the deathwing terminator sergeant has to have a power weapon and cant run a power fist unlike a regular terminator squad where the sergeant can have either. I love dark angels but god these datasheets make me so sad.
So many 1s and 2s for the Dark Angels. Ouf, that was painful to watch
Wait - does David get victory dice??
Stay till the end :)
@@PlayOnTabletopah, that’s what I get for turning the video off after JT’s sign off. :/
Thank you for that.
Is it just me or is there a discord ping at 9:10 ?
