This is a super fun 650 point game between Moria and the Army of Thror! This was a casual game of a slightly different style from what we usually make. Let me know if you like it in the comments
I love the new format for these games. It feels like you and your guests are having more fun.
agreed
Love the laid back format. Also appreciate Seans breakdown of his tactics. Think Mesbg needs more in depth tactical content for new players to learn from.
Thank you very much for this game! Going in with competitive spirit AND fluffy lists is always the best viewing experience in my personal opinion!
Love this style, please continue with it! Love seeing the dragon and less popular models get some time to shine
Let me know what you think about this new style!

Should've brought the Thrain train!
Really fun to watch! awesome to see more unused/unrated models like dragons!
Awesome game, great banter, loved seeing the dragon in action, and the tension for some of the dice rolls.
Thanks for the comment! This one was a lot of fun
This is definitely the best video to both introduce new players and just have to watch.
I love it.
Thror is my army and honestly goblins are a fan favorite as well😊
Thank you man
Love this style of video. Really entertaining to watch. I also really like the wide handheld long takes with camera from the same angle that most of the video is filmed in with this format, because I find it much easier to follow where the models are in relation to one another. I also love how Sean explains his thought process, particularly with the ingenious objective-or-fireball-to-Thror dilemma. Top notch battle report imo.
What a beautiful dragon!! I dont know why but this battle was very special to me. Dwarves fighting a dragon on an immersive battleboard I suppose, what an amazing game!
Love the casual style btw! And the cinematic style! Amazing to see variety!
Don’t give up on that Arkenstone!! I’ve survived a Blade Wrathed Rutabi which did 7 wounds to me, survived all of it with Arkenstone. It’ll take you to deep waters mate.
Awesome video, really loved the thematic games, it’s super fun to watch
9:09 The rapport between you two is awesome. Makes for great content.
What an epic “wassup, wassup” here! 😂
Most enjoyable bat rep I've seen for ages, long live the dragon!
Dragon's seem like such a fun model. Definitely need to pick one up!
Where do you buy this dragon?
love the new format for these informal batreps with guests. That Dragon looked ike it was having fun. I wonder how it would have done against Bow shots though?
I think it works for the normal videos. I also dig the more intense formatting for more flagship videos. I think you're right on the money with doing each in their own way.
Love the game and the thematic matchup!!
Love the formatting of the video! Can't wait to see more
the end just got me! "these are 6 wounds, i can do it!" then 1 second later ..🤣🤣🤣
Really good battle rep !
Loved it !
Awesome video! I guess it is time to dust off the dragon!
This was really nice game to watch. Entertaining and I feel like I learned something. More like this, please. And I liked that the list are written in the comments.
Awesome content! Thank u guys!
Definitely a fan of this laid back format for laid back games
Good format! Especialy because you are mixing it up with the competitive style of the conquest champïons. Both are fun.
What i like about it is:
- You guys explain what you do, we know what goes through your mind and that pulls you in even more
- The narrative style. The dragon defending the treasure here for example is so themy, really fun.
- You guys just seem to have alot of fun yourself and that spreads to us!
Idea for another narrative one: a group of rangers is tracking a large group of orcs, trolls and wargs that are raiding villages north of Bree. They cant deal with it alone and call in help from Rivendell. Glorfindell comes to the rescue and lead a group of elves and rangers to face them. It turns out there is a huge troll from the ettenmoors leading them. Could be the mordor troll chieftain or Burhdur. You could let them fight over some Arnor ruins and you still can use your Tor Ithalas ruins set.
Very fun batrep guys, big thanks for the fantastic job!
This was epic. So much fun to watch. Thanks.
Great report it was so satisfying watching the dwarves get slaughtered 😂🐉🔥
Awesome video was that dragon a print of the gw it looks amazing
Loved it man, need to get a dragon for a friend now
Great upload boys, cheers for the effort.
Thanks mate
That was excellent!
the style of this video is perfect keep on the good job!
Great video
I like the less scripted more laid back battle reports. And I love when you use exotic models like a dragon. So yeah.
Great video!
Love when you have Sean on
Great format, great battle report!
This was awesome. Fun laid back game, models that are cool but don't see competitive play, all make for great videos!
After this game I am totally convinced on Dragons being 100% viable. They have some hard counters but the combination of the hitting power maneuverability and the fire breath is huge
I understand completely why people dislike the dragon, but the fly and flame breath build definitely does work, your biggest concern is if your opponent has a bunch of S3/4 bows just for the random chip that causes the flee.
Honestly with Shelob and Gulavhar being popular despite being glass cannons the dragon hate has always seemed silly to me.
I totally agree, I think a lot of the hate is from people who have never played with or against a dragon making it mainly just theory crafted dislike
Love me some MESBG videos! Especially from conquest.
This was fun to watch!
32:55 was basically me in high school 😂
Thanks for the report, very entertaining!
Do you have the lists anywhere?
"Dragons are trash"
*Proceeds to quite literally roast and dominate everyone*
Lmao, great report and like this casual style.
I am totally convinced now that Dragons are great! They definitely have some weaknesses and hard counters but in match ups like this one it was almost unstoppable
Baruk khazad, khazad ai-menu!
I love the dragon to bits
It's awesome, I am very tempted to paint mine up now
Jeez, now I want to make a moria list with a Dragon as Drogoth the Dragonlord from BFME 2. Does anyone know a good proxie?
That would be awesome! I love that game so much, I haven't seen one yet
@@ConquestCreations well, you are a 3D sculpter right? Or you know a few:p
Very Fun battle report
Much prefer filming like this, much better view of the decisions the players are making and the battlefield as a whole
Fun games are just as enjoyable as competitive games!
When do we get the remaining conquest championship battle reports?
Damn you played a whole tournament without getting Thror wounded! You must have led your team to victory right? Right!?
Let's go a new battle rep
GIVE ME MONEY! Great
there's one way to run a dragon thats reliably worth his points, and sadly its none of the cool ones. ironhide and wings. saves the will for survival, not that much gets through D9 with 3 fate. fly to get the charge, and that tasty tasty ten dice to wound. at basic d7 you can end up rolling a LOT of instinct saves, particularly from s3 shooting, and the base makes fly pretty much a necessity. but thats for pure mechanical advantage. and if you run a dragon that's not your priority motivation 🤣for fun flame breath is definitely the way to go.
Thanks for the comment. I totally disagree. I don't think that tough hide is ever worth it. You get the D9 and 9 wounds but you will almost always flee before you go through all 9 so you are basically paying 50 points for +2 defense. It provides no extra tactical options and is only important if you are in positions where you are taking damage. With a 12' fly you should almost always be able to have in the ways from shooting and breathe fire provides a huge tactical option that plays really well with Moria. You enemy simply doesn't have the option to bunch up and hold choke points. Even if you don't end up using it all game you have completely changed how your opponent had to approach the game. This game is a great example. If the dragon had tough hide he would have been significantly worse, I could have formed my battle line and annihilated the goblins while the dragon can only be at one place at a time.
@@ConquestCreations thanks for replying. i totally disagree with your disagreement 🤣against this specific army yeah fire was better. no real range threats, nothing really fast enough to catch it. but army of thror is a bit of an outlier. im talking about a build that works consistently against pretty much anyone. at d7, even something as cheap as 2-3 gondor knights could pin you against terrain and half kill you with an average role (3 knights charging gives 6 attack so out dicing you, doubling to 12 for trap, wounding on 5s for 4 wounds) if you'v already dropped a couple will for fireballs its very possible that dragon is just gone. at 600+ where you are likely to see dragons, shooting armies have enough bows/Xbows to wound d7 consistently, even with an in the way. and its hard to hide a dragon base completely. boltthowrs wound on 4s, ballista on 3s. lots of wounds, lots of tests and no will to stop casters apart from RM free one. you need to be so cagey with your movement that you are basically spending 350 for a mordor catapult that can only fire 3 times at most. could ally two in for less than that. D9 changes ALL that. and saving the will for courage means you go from a 1 in 4 chance of failing a test, to a 1 in 12 chance, you can actually tank 7-8 wounds and stick around. (unless your rolling is truly dire) plus you are taking half as many tests. as for the tactical aspects, forcing me to fight goblins 1v1 (if you gang up i group up there as well, fireball if you want) at basically equal numbers is not a particularly terrifying situation.
11:57 Wasn't that charge with dragon illegal? You have to be able to see the target you want to charge at beginning of your move.
There was a window and a door in the building that the dragon could see the dwarf through
❤
Where can i buy that dragon?
What about the conquest champions league? Every week i keep hoping for it.
I would keep hoping for it because the next episode will be next week
@@ConquestCreations awesome!
"casual" format still views great, more is no problem, especially if it's easier on the editing work or what have you.
Thanks for your feedback, this one took less than half the time to edit!
Great video again as always
What's happening with the conquest champions league games?
Next week you will see the next episode!
Just bad luck for the dwarfs. It took them so long to get the last 2-4 kills to break the goblins. If they had done it 2 round more early, the dragon might have runn away.
Also the Dwalin was killed by the fire with both fate and Might.
New battle!
Absolute classic Arkenstone rolling 😅
I had just played in a tournament where he passed 4 in a row! This was a very different expereince
@@ConquestCreations Yeah TBF I've also had him shrug off 6 wounds before which is sooo satisfying! But more often than not he'll roll the dreaded 1
Awesome. Only Criticism I can give is the Turn number announcements are a bit too long for my tik tok damaged attention span. Also I like victory point summaries at the end :D
Take your crappy attention span back to tik tok, its ruined most of social media already
Then maybe stop with TikTok. Look after your mental health my brother
Thanks for the comment, that is a really easy one to fix. I'll drop them by a second for the next one
Ugh what happened to the tournament videos
Maybe try a more positive comment such as "I am looking forwards to the return of the Conquest Champions League"
I like the conversation but not the camera
Thanks for the comment, could you elaborate further on what you don't like about the camera?
