That’s why I love your channel, just a couple of months in to the new IG codex and we already got an apocalypse, may the guns of the emperor rain death upon the xenos filth
With Nurgle’s Rot finally catching up with me and a day of laying on the sofa ahead, this is exactly what I needed! Always love seeing da rippa go up against the Imperium’s finest!
I liked before the ads started 😂 YES!!!!! who doesmt love abit of helms deep in a 40k setting! COME ON RIPPA AND GUARD!!! And im so happy to see you stompa back on the board 👍
Amazing board! I had hoped beyond hope that the cavalry would arrive and you didn't disappoint. If you'd like to play this scenario again, keep it loyal to the book next time and have a Sylnaveth army show up behind the Orks. Don't mess with trees
I think IG vehicles will continue to get AoC for their vehicles… it’s in a separate part of the dataslate which includes CSM, who also don’t have it mentioned in their new codex.
@@StrikingScorpion82 my advice is to embrace the Burny Dance orks have a prodigious amount of "fire" power. My favorite unit is a death skull burna wagon.
Wow GEAT model of the Hornburg (Helm’s Deep is the gorge which the Hornburg protects). I wonder if an orc or maybe a gretchin gets a house rule: when successfully charging the Grate that model cannot be reduced past 1 health.
@@StrikingScorpion82 Awww I wish they still had those siege towers from back in the day with the old castle set. Also, I wish you a merry Christmas and God bless :)
Wow, awsome battle and terrain!!! BUT: don't you think that Guard reinforcement wave was too much? Maybe you don't have enough models but, keeping to the Helm's Deep narrative, I would have liked a wave of fast attack\aircraft units, like Rough Riders, Sentinels, Hellhounds, Vendettas and so on...that big hammer blow of heavy and super heavies was too much OP I think...love your games however!!!😇
Space marines also are really amazing when played like they operate in the fluff. Teleporting, drop poding, and being air dropped in by thunder hawks. capturing objectives or destroying vital targets is really strong. In this game a couple of drop pods landing in behind the orks would really cause serious problems.
Hi Luke ! How are you ? I want to know for the subscription at the level « aspect warrior » if I can see the oldest videos like season 10 or 9 or others ?
@@StrikingScorpion82 only thing that could have made it even better would have been a big green tidal wave! But genuinely, really enjoy all of your battle reports!
I get what you guys were going for with the scenario but man this match was rigged heavily in the orks favour. Twice the force size, got two turns of free movement and one turn of charges and assaults it's like you didn't even want to give the guard a chance
Folks, a 'Like' and comment would be awesome. Much appreciated. Enjoy the epic battle! And wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and New Year!👍🙂
Where did you get that terrain board? It’s obviously custom built, but it’s none the less AMAZING. THANK YOU! ❤
That’s why I love your channel, just a couple of months in to the new IG codex and we already got an apocalypse, may the guns of the emperor rain death upon the xenos filth
And that terrain looks awesome by the way
WAAAAAAAAAGH 😁😁😁
@@caseyanders1601 Yes it is custom built and salvaged by the guys at SSWG Wargames Club:) Not sure of its origins
Also the most underrated moment - James rolling a pebble instead of a dice lol.
👍🤣🤣
Seeing the cavalry coming over the hill as I lay dying on the ramparts brought me peace. Happy to have held the deeping wall.
A true hero👍🙂😎
I am not much of a war hammer man but I absolutely love this channel it’s made the game digestible for an outsider of the hobby
Thanks for the feedback:)
With Nurgle’s Rot finally catching up with me and a day of laying on the sofa ahead, this is exactly what I needed! Always love seeing da rippa go up against the Imperium’s finest!
Enjoy the battle🙂🙂👍
The battle for Helms Deep is over, the battle for Cadia is about to begin.
Lol🙂🙂👍👍
Challenge of the day:
Take a shot everytime the Whiteshields are mistakenly called 'Conscripts'.
Emperor be with you.
2:32:00-2:32:25 priceless james moment. Also liked your improvised camera maneuvers to modify the special effects.
Thanks🙂👍
I liked before the ads started 😂 YES!!!!! who doesmt love abit of helms deep in a 40k setting! COME ON RIPPA AND GUARD!!! And im so happy to see you stompa back on the board 👍
Yeah good to have the stompa back🙂👍
Favorite moment of the battle. James screaming "WHITE SHIELDS" when, in turn 1, a lucky shot prompts the Waagh!.
Lol🤣🙂👍
The terrain in this battle report is just fantastic. The castle itself has so much detail. The whole thing is truly inspiring.
Thanks. Terrain from the guys at SSWG👍
Let the green menace break upon those walls like water upon stone.
Yes😎😎😎🙂👍
Loved today's game and the terrain looked incredible. Cannot beat a good Apocalypse scenario.
Thanks a lot🙂😎👍
an apo batrep with orks? yay! thanks a lot and happy Whaaaaagh!
Enjoy!👍🙂
The effort and love that goes into these setups and games is amazing. Such an enjoyable experience to watch!
Glad you enjoy it!👍🙂
Amazing board! I had hoped beyond hope that the cavalry would arrive and you didn't disappoint. If you'd like to play this scenario again, keep it loyal to the book next time and have a Sylnaveth army show up behind the Orks. Don't mess with trees
Yes ents would have been a great finishing touch lol. Glad you enjoyed it🙂👍😎
Hi Luke, another very enjoyable battle report, and kudos to the club for building such a good Helms Deep board 👍
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it👍🙂
They confiscated my plasma gun 😂
🤣🤣🤣its for your own safety🤣🤣🤣
Always love your apocalypse battles :3. Thanks for the video my dude!
No problem. Enjoy👍🙂
Id love to see an apocalypse battle using ur entire blood angels collection. Great video!
Yes that would be good👍🙂
Looking forward to the arrival of 100 Rough Riders on the flank
I'd love to get rough riders on the Channel. Love the new models👍🙂
I think IG vehicles will continue to get AoC for their vehicles… it’s in a separate part of the dataslate which includes CSM, who also don’t have it mentioned in their new codex.
Not sure on that one. Anyone know this for sure? Good point:)
Can't wait for Inquisitor Galndolf to show up in turn 4 with the rough riders to win the game
Lol👍👍🙂🤣
Very cool, felt old school and it was a joy to watch!
Great...glad you enjoyed it👍🙂🙂
Haha! I caught myself painting my squad of truck Boyz faster when the tanks showed up. Like I'm gonna will them across the pond to help you out. Lol
Lol...Orks needed more stuff I think🙂👍
@@StrikingScorpion82 my advice is to embrace the Burny Dance orks have a prodigious amount of "fire" power. My favorite unit is a death skull burna wagon.
Amazing again guy. Perfect after long day at work.
Glad you enjoyed it!🙂👍
Wow GEAT model of the Hornburg (Helm’s Deep is the gorge which the Hornburg protects). I wonder if an orc or maybe a gretchin gets a house rule: when successfully charging the Grate that model cannot be reduced past 1 health.
Would be narrative🙂👍😎
This might be the greatest fantasy cross over of all time!
👍👍😎🙂
I assume at some point at the club there's going to be an AoS game with Order vs Chaos on that board xD
They plan plenty more games👍🙂
@@StrikingScorpion82 Awww I wish they still had those siege towers from back in the day with the old castle set.
Also, I wish you a merry Christmas and God bless :)
Top quality content as usual! Best battle reports on YT in my opinion.
Thank you🙂👍
The Stompa is vying with the Pyrovores as the worst unit in 40K. But it does sort of match the Ork’s absurdist mentality. 😁
Lol yes fits with the orks well. Huge stompy and useless. More dangerous if it actually falls on something lol👍🙂🤣
@@StrikingScorpion82 😅😅😅 BOOM
Love the big battles!!!
Thanks. Hope to do more👍🙂
Would love to see more Apocalypse games in future!
Hope to👍🙂
well done chaps. Apocalypse from The Scorpion. What more can you ask for at Christmas.
Hope you enjoyed it👍🙂
GLORY TO THE IMPERIUM OF MAN! SLAY THY ENEMY WITH THE WRATH OF HIS LAS-FIRE! WEAR HIM DOWN THROUGH MEN AND STEEL! SHOW NO MERCY, SHOW NO RESPITE!
The emperor protects😎🙂👍
The best apocalypse games in the business
Thanks:)
So, the Orks are assaulting Helm's Deep!
Yep. Enjoy😎👍🙂
Forward for the Emperor
A glorious death facing down the Rippa! Honor demanded I hold my ground, and by the Emperor, it was held until the very end!
A glorious stand:)
Wow, awsome battle and terrain!!! BUT: don't you think that Guard reinforcement wave was too much?

Lol...so worked out at 6k each in total. But yeah would have been great perhaps if orks has another 2 stompas👍🙂😎
As LtGen Winston Adkins, are you saying I used too much firepower? Me! The commander of the 57th Hallowed Bombardiers. I sir, am offended
A perfect example of equality of points not meaning equality of power!
...Holy cavalry, Batman!
Great snakes Robin!🤣👍
Would love to see the orks as defenders in a future batrep
Yeah that would be interesting. But could the orks sit still?🙂👍🤣
Amazing table and terrain!
Thanks👍😎
You forgot the extra attacks on charge on turn 3. Also, for fnp from rockets James should've rolled 3 dice for each guardsman
Ok thanks👍👍🙂
@@StrikingScorpion82 anyway thanks for the high quality content, as always
Pure delight!
Thanks 🙂👍
Always said the 3 best armies for Apocalypse is Astra, Orks, and Tyranids due to the scale they usually work on... Looking forward to this one!
Space marines also are really amazing when played like they operate in the fluff. Teleporting, drop poding, and being air dropped in by thunder hawks. capturing objectives or destroying vital targets is really strong.
In this game a couple of drop pods landing in behind the orks would really cause serious problems.
Agreed...they make for epic games👍🙂
Awesome bat rep as ever 😁
Thanks! 😁
Amazing crossover idea
Thanks...it worked out ok:)
This was a lot of fun to watch, must have been even better to play. Loved the terrain set and the theme for the battle gents, another amazing game :)
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the feedback👍🙂
Awesome game as usual!!
Thanks a lot👍😎🙂
Merry Xmas to you sir! Great battle, as a LOTR fan this was very welcome 👊🏻
Thanks and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too👍🙂
Love your work, thanks for making this batrep
Glad you enjoy it!👍🙂
Such a good Batrep, amazing terrain and scenario. We’ll played Luke and James. Merry Xmas to all
Thank you and Merry Christmas to you too👍🙂
On first glance, that looks less than 3k for the guard. Maybe it's goz there are so many orks
Keep watching😉😎
And then the tanks arrived
@@aronrowley411 COMING DOWN THE MOUNTAINSIDE!
Only 3 basilisk! Jks... looking awesome guys👌👏
Yes need more👍🙂😎
The game looked epic! Fantastic table, but might as well of called it when all those tanks turned up on the flank 🤷♂
Well done lads , that was Epic !
Thanks🙂👍
This is awesome. So excited.
Cool. Enjoy👍😎
Great battle report! Likely could have deployed less tanks at the end for a fairer game, but it doesn't seem that was the intent anyway haha
Glad you enjoyed it. I guess if the Orks had broken in a bit deeper they could have snatched it🙂😎👍
It’s interesting to compare the armies V9 et old version of 40k and army list
Space Hobbits!
Best Christmas Gift!
Enjoy:)
I’m new to the game. Is this 6000pts each team or 3000pts each team?
6000 each side. Keep watching for the full reveal🙂😎👍
@@StrikingScorpion82 Cheers! I’m only a noob! Looking forward to watching the full match! (What do you call a match/game/battle?)
Helm’s Deep… absolutely gorgeous table
Thanks👍😎
Lord of the rings and warhammer 40K what could be better !!
Lol...seems to have worked well. Just needed some ents🤣🤣👍🙂
I am very exited for your first 10th edition apocalypse battle.
I mean if it is even half as epic as this one I am eating good.
Lol...yes will have to do a 10th ed apoc game💯👍🙂
That was glorious
APOCALYPSE !!!
Yeah😎😎😎🙂👍
Rolling behind walls is how I win all my games
Lol. Was a good sized wall😅
Great video.
Thanks🙂
Hi Luke ! How are you ? I want to know for the subscription at the level « aspect warrior » if I can see the oldest videos like season 10 or 9 or others ?
Yes you should be able to. Pretty much for full library of bonus content and battle reports is loaded and available for Members🙂😎👍
A masterpiece.
Thanks👍🙂
stupid question but what film are you referencing when the tanks arrive to reinforce the guard
The Lord of the Rings The Two Towers. This whole scenario pretty much mirrors key parts of this movie👍😎
@@StrikingScorpion82 fair enough been along time since I watched any of them so my mind went a bit blank 😂
Ask and you shall receive
Thata boy James!
👍😎👍
YEA BOI 😊😊😊
Enjoy:)
Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaaah booooooooooi!
Enjoy🙂😎👍
Yeah boiiiii
Enjoy the carnage👍😎
WAAGH!
Go Gutrippa👍🙂😎
Epic!
Thanks:)
@@StrikingScorpion82 only thing that could have made it even better would have been a big green tidal wave! But genuinely, really enjoy all of your battle reports!
@@jgliszczynski456 yes more orks👍🙂🙂😎
I get what you guys were going for with the scenario but man this match was rigged heavily in the orks favour. Twice the force size, got two turns of free movement and one turn of charges and assaults it's like you didn't even want to give the guard a chance
Keep watching😎😉
@@StrikingScorpion82 Luke...........I apologise for ever doubting you
