Apologies for the less than stellar audio in this one! A tech issue recording forced us to use the backup audio, and our lovely Narrator was sadly under the weather - but don't forget to leave a comment to show Cass how much we appreciate her!
No worries at all. Her commentary is honestly one of the many reasons I adore this channel. Not only do you guys keep everything succinct but the jokes and commentary are amazing as always.
That token at 15:28 had me dying. Great batrep, got to say you guys and gals have gotten me into AoS and now I'm thinking of trying it out. Thanks for bringing such amazing content for everyone to watch.
Close game. Double turns are something I'm never able to decide if I like or not. On the one hand, it certainly can make a game more exciting, on the other, they often take a player from a recoverable position to crippled. Good batt rep! Thanks for the content.
This battle report is awesome! Great job guys! The only thing I don't understand is the Stormcast on the piece of terrain....is he garrisoned there or is this just a "hill" ? How does fighting from a "hill" work anyway?
Don’t know if it has been mentioned but roar doesn’t prevent inspiring presence because it goes away at end of combat phase before battle shock happens
One of the most exciting battle report in some time! Was a blast, loved seeing the multiple GCs. Shame they don't feel even more impactful but they might get imbalanced at that point. Looking forward to the next battle report.
Your list as inspired me to run a similar list but with a Exalted Champion Tzeentch Marked with Arcane Tome with Idolator Lord and a unit of 10 Tzeentch Marked Chaos Knights instead of the gargant, Sorcerer Lord. With only two units of Varanguard at my disposal I hope I have the output to deal the punch KoTET is known for.
Well. Ridge can't do united offence because you can't contest an objective with 2 gcs in this battle plan. 2 even if you tie in points. Since ridge dropped a battle tactic and std did not. They would get a minor victory.
That is a very good point! Definitely overlooked the Battleplan and was scrambling for a tactic. And of course yes, it would have been a minor, but tie on points and that would have been amazing for the state I was in after T2. Thanks! Great catch and good to know for the future ;)
I'm going to say this before I watch the game... I honestly think that including a Slann in a Coalesced army is a mistake, there are better uses for the points, especially in Koatl's Claw lists. Now, let's watch Ridge prove me wrong 🤨 So, post battle. Not sure what to say. Ridge played a valiant game but Archaon and Varanguard are so cheesy it was always gonna be an uphill struggle. Not sure what Ridge could've done tactically otherwise and I'm not even sure replacing the Slann with more bodies would've done much against all that armour and the massive beatstick that is Archaon. GG fellas, great content as usual.
Yeah, it was a tough one just knowing I would have to go first and not do much with it, had i got that second +1 to save on the warriors T1 it would have helped tremendously. Also, if I won T2 Prio I think it probably would have went the other way with all those knights and Carno, which many matchups are so dependant on T2 Prio. I have to disagree with you on the Slann though! He is an absolutely integral piece in every Seraphon list and provides so so much value I could never imagine not having him. Thanks for the nice words :)
Prediction after turn 1: the chaos giant solos the entire seraphon army and both armies in the next batrep…all seriousness unless the slaves roll like complete trash in the next round the games over and slaves win this one lol, with the front lines completely opened up I’d send archaon into the slann and the healthiest unit into the knights. This leaves the next hero phases for the lizards at almost nothing and even if by a miracle the seraphons general kills Archeon he’s still left in the middle of the table surrounded by some of the heaviest hitting units in the game
Absolutely fantastic game as always lol to quote an old friend in the hobby there are 2 types of close games, close in strength and close in points 😂 bravo to ridge for holding on that long but idk if I’ll ever forgive him for killing off the chaos giant he was destined for greatness
Yeah the points changes deffo hurt, but I think it was needed. This wasn't the best list, I just wanted to bring the warriors back out. They are still just not good enough (they're so close) and being high drop with no shooting or other ways to do ranged MW's hurts. If I was playing a better Thunder Lizard list, with an engine and basty's etc. it would have been a more interesting game!
Does anyone else feel like we're getting back to that (bad, IMO) place where T2 priority is once again becoming more and more pivotal to the way games go? Fewer objectives more centrally located mean that stuff is dying in droves even from T1, fewer incentives to go 2nd aside from the two battleplans where it really matters tends to mean there's less reason to consider giving it away...it seems like pretty much everything is pushing things in the same direction.
Do you kick puppies before you roll your dice in warhammer games? I dont watch all your content, but i never seen someone so consistantly getting smashed by his dice.
It was largely the mission. Let's Galatian champions auto capture objectives, and seraphon had four of them dancing around, snagging battle tactics, and chipping wounds here and there!
What weapons are his units and leaders using? Second, are the Saurus knights using only a standard bearer or do they have a wardrummer too? Third, how do I add endless spells in the AoS app?
@@RidgeHanna What weapon is the scar-vet using? Edit: does the saurus warriors have a wardrummer or was it the knights who has one? I saw now that one of the warriors had a drum so I got confused
@@RidgeHanna ok, last questions. Why does he use the realmshaper engine when it isn’t listed on the list, and just to get to my last question answered, does the Warriors have a wardrummer or is it the knights that has the drums?

No worries, everything was easy to understand. And Cass was amazing (as always)!
No worries at all. Her commentary is honestly one of the many reasons I adore this channel. Not only do you guys keep everything succinct but the jokes and commentary are amazing as always.
Is there a Slann in Cass' throat? Great content as always!
Amazing game, the moment the Slann died to the wound was awesome xD hope Cass gets well soon! 💪
Get well Cass! Have her play on the channel again.
Damn! That was a close game. Props to the Lizard player for hanging on to the end, smart player!
That token at 15:28 had me dying. Great batrep, got to say you guys and gals have gotten me into AoS and now I'm thinking of trying it out. Thanks for bringing such amazing content for everyone to watch.
Thanks for the kind words Ricky, glad you're enjoying the content!
Thanks so much, that's awesome to hear! AoS is the best. Yeah, the token usually gets a laugh haha
Stuff happens and you all still managed to make a great Battle Report. Hope Cass gets to feeling better quickly. Thank you!
Koatl’s Claw!!!! Finally, don’t see that list all too often!
Even with the tech issues, still the best AoS battle reports! Honestly incredible quality.
Close game. Double turns are something I'm never able to decide if I like or not. On the one hand, it certainly can make a game more exciting, on the other, they often take a player from a recoverable position to crippled.
Good batt rep! Thanks for the content.
Best Battle reports (and narration) on RUclips 🙌🏼
I’m so very excited for our new seraphon book!!
SAME!!!!
Thanks!
Thanks so much for the support Jeff!
Can't wait for the seraphon to get the new book, really curious. Btw, which game table is that one? it looks perfect. what are the vault measurement?
Yeees finally Seraphon 😍👌🏻 great game! I would love to see more seraphon and kharadron overlord battles 🙏🏼 you are the best
Technology is indeed a wonderful thing... when it bloody works :D
Uh oh battle report under an hour. Someone get wrecked.
Wow after watching it was actually really close. I wish my games went this fast. 😂
All our battle reports are under an hour with our format! :P
@@SeasonofWar ….
I’ll see myself out…
@@brandonjramos No You're welcome here! Was just letting you know what to expect 😁👍
As a new seraphon player it's great to see them on the channel again! Great game!
Ridge it’s was fun playing you at the lvo. Sorry I didn’t recognize you when we played :) by game 5 I had a few to many drinks lol.
Mike right? Oh, no worries at all man! I'm glad we could have a few drinks together for the last game! Cheers, man!
@@RidgeHanna wow good memory. If you go next year I’ll have to track you down for a rematch
Love seeing the seraphon play! I’m only just starting and ridge is great to learn from. Keep it up guys
Ok, I’m too curious. At 15:29 you show the Varanguard with a token that says “big d**k”.
Which spell/ ability is that one?
It's finest hour! lol
That was Ridge's, left over from his Saurus Sunblood *insert massive eyeroll*
:P
This battle report is awesome! Great job guys!
The only thing I don't understand is the Stormcast on the piece of terrain....is he garrisoned there or is this just a "hill" ? How does fighting from a "hill" work anyway?
Don’t know if it has been mentioned but roar doesn’t prevent inspiring presence because it goes away at end of combat phase before battle shock happens
Yep, Archaon has an ability that turns off inspiring presence and rally within 12"
S2D, S2D, S2D.
Great Game.

I have to disagree with you on the Slann though! He is an absolutely integral piece in every Seraphon list and provides so so much value I could never imagine not having him.
Thanks for the nice words :)
In StD army if you are using Archaon and have Chaos Sorcerer Lord as General, can you put them all in Battle Regiment Battalion? How does this work?
Yep, no problem at all, you can fit Archaon in as a commander & the sorc Lord as a sub-commander!
Prediction after turn 1: the chaos giant solos the entire seraphon army and both armies in the next batrep…all seriousness unless the slaves roll like complete trash in the next round the games over and slaves win this one lol, with the front lines completely opened up I’d send archaon into the slann and the healthiest unit into the knights.

Also I completely forgot that the guard were in the temple lol wouldn’t have made that part of the prediction if I had opened up my eyes 😂
Pretty sure the Varanguard at 15min . can't activate if they are not within 3". Could be wrong
There was a unit of Saurus guard garrisoning the temple!
Fantastic game! Glad to finally see a priority won against Ridge 🤣
Nooooooo! I much preferred when Jordan lost all the Prio's. Bring back 2022!!! :P
Ridge how are you feeling now after this match about the point changes to Seraphon.. Too heavy handed or still ok?
Yeah the points changes deffo hurt, but I think it was needed. This wasn't the best list, I just wanted to bring the warriors back out. They are still just not good enough (they're so close) and being high drop with no shooting or other ways to do ranged MW's hurts.
If I was playing a better Thunder Lizard list, with an engine and basty's etc. it would have been a more interesting game!
Yeah honestly when you see Archaeon you need to figure out how to just muddle him up somehow, or he'll rampage everything.
Does anyone else feel like we're getting back to that (bad, IMO) place where T2 priority is once again becoming more and more pivotal to the way games go? Fewer objectives more centrally located mean that stuff is dying in droves even from T1, fewer incentives to go 2nd aside from the two battleplans where it really matters tends to mean there's less reason to consider giving it away...it seems like pretty much everything is pushing things in the same direction.
Thanks for posting!
Do you kick puppies before you roll your dice in warhammer games? I dont watch all your content, but i never seen someone so consistantly getting smashed by his dice.
Im still wondering how it was that close after StD turn 2.
It was largely the mission. Let's Galatian champions auto capture objectives, and seraphon had four of them dancing around, snagging battle tactics, and chipping wounds here and there!
Did you use filament or resin printer for terrain?
always filament for terrain!
@@SeasonofWar cool! Do you use any surface smoothing techniques?
@@chrislee7704 Just use an automotive filler primer to help smooth a bit, but otherwise no, don't feel its needed for terrain!
@@SeasonofWar cool cool!
What weapons are his units and leaders using?
Second, are the Saurus knights using only a standard bearer or do they have a wardrummer too?
Third, how do I add endless spells in the AoS app?
In the army creator app, you have to go the filter page and add endless spells then hit filter
Celestite Blades for the knights, Celestite Clubs for the Warriors (in GV batallion), and there is a wardrummer in there as well, yes
@@RidgeHanna What weapon is the scar-vet using?
Edit: does the saurus warriors have a wardrummer or was it the knights who has one? I saw now that one of the warriors had a drum so I got confused
@@thedinotamergaming spear so he gets 6 attacks and he has the eviscerating blade artefact
@@RidgeHanna ok, last questions. Why does he use the realmshaper engine when it isn’t listed on the list, and just to get to my last question answered, does the Warriors have a wardrummer or is it the knights that has the drums?
Wow, what an unexpected series of events😂
Thanks Cass! You folks are lovely as always
now i want to buy varanguard
Great batrep but what an awful game, nicely played and was still interesting !
I feel like the audio gets worse every time 😂
Thanks!
dude - thank YOU so much!
