e.g. The 'bad' deployment was a perfectly valid if the battle plan required it. To me that looked like a good 'Refused Flank' formation with the heavy hitters massing on their left (screens right), the caster near enough to support them and the slow unit in place to threaten anyone who was trying to outflank. This is an effective tactic vs the traditional battleline.
Very informative video. I think deployment gives a lot of issues to players, both new and old, so it's good to break down on that topic. I might even go ahead and do some myself. I have a stash of dep. pictures that could be analysed.
@Gera3d Thank you very much! I hope you enjoy the new content I uploaded today. I think I'll be going public on the forums sometime next week and then there should be a good steady flow of videos.
nice. what i noticed about terrain in warmachine is that is SO much more colorful. Because you have smaller deployment 4x4 instead of 6x4 (40k/fantasy) terrain plays a bigger role...and just makes the bigger (smaller table) game a lot more interesting. Just palyed a game no mans land where we set the terrain to look like an alley way of an old western film and we ended up sluggin' it out right in the middle of the table...everything was getting smashed up (minus casters)
@theclash24 Hey thanks for the comments! I actually haven't even gone public with my YouTube page on the forums yet! I'm in the process of filming more content. However, it's good to know people are finding the videos online.
Hey I liked your tips on deployment. It's interesting stuff. Thanks for uploading.

A very narrow view on deployment strategies.

Yeah that would be good. I plan on revisiting the topic in the future to discuss deployment schemes, like: brick/castle, refused flank.
