BTP Batrep- Dark Elves Turn 3 (Skaven vs Dark Elves)

[icegoddesslol]

btw, your beastmasters cant be killed really, only way i can possibly think would be with a template weapon, but if u read rules, it says that the beastmasters hide behind the hydra, and the hydra takes all the hits/wounds that would be allocated to the beastmasters. so if in base contact with an enemy they cant be attacked but they can attack.

[Darkrift101]

Just what I said in the last video. One smart cookie. :)

--Darkrift

[icegoddesslol]

heh, best friend plays dark elves. there must be a way to kill them, or else it wouldnt say that he must suffer from monster reaction chart if beast masters are killed XD

[linkinhearts666]

@icegoddesslol yuppers. Template :P. It used to be an issue in 6th edition. Thats why hydras were never used because BM were wayyyy to easy to kill.

[M0rtari]

Except for the load of cheese army that Shawn puts down then this is great fun :p

But Seriusly, 2 Hydras and 2x Black Guard Units + Ring of cheese. Dosen't make for a fun fight imo

[blackattack100]

When they ran, auto destroyed cause they ran through the hyrda. Then you hold.

[Number1GamerAsh]

is it possiable to have a game were shawn plays rens army and ren plays shawns army or mike plays rens and ect

[ampao]

Isnt it possible to stop the hydras from overruning into the plague furnace by stopping them 1" away?

[DatBastard98]

what happened on 6:20

[bakugansolar1]

haven't seen end of game yet but I hope Dark Elves win

[SnEaKyGiTau]

not sure if thats correct, i can't see anything in the rule book thats says a 6 always saves, on page 36 it says refer to shooting (page 30) for how taking saves works and on page 30 it says saves are modified. Also the hydra handlers can't be targeted in close combat, they can be shot from missile fire when randomised, they do get to attack in close combat, when they die (from shooting ect) I'm pretty sure the hydra takes a monster reaction immediately as per page 61 of rule book

[MarkofStark]

@SnEaKyGiTau Acutally its the other way around. You cannot randomize shooting on the hydra as per the rules under the hydra in dark elf army book. You can target them in close combat however, but only if the attacking model is only in base to base contact with the handler only, if the model is on contact with the hydra and the handler then it is forced to allocate its attacks on the hydra as per the dark elf army book pg 58.

[mtbell68]

Oh buddy - that looked like more than 9 inches - Shawn had to charge all the way around the hydra in his way (though he should have declared a charge with the hydra first and removed that obstacle).

However, the final position of the dark riders did set you up for a sweet shot with the other two weapons teams, - have to see how it worked out for you in the next video.

[YellowDevilR]

ohh wait i just noticed the weapon team that shawn charged with the dark riders was a plague mortar weapon team and they cant stand and shoot the 2 other teams are the warpfire throwers

[Spiterofspit]

the skaven would be autodestroyed becasue they fleed into an enemy (the hydra). then you choose to overrun or not

[mtbell68]

Renn! - is that a warpfire thrower you just chose to flee as a charge reaction?!? Why not just stand & shoot the dark riders???

[YellowDevilR]

Because they were to close for me to be able to stand and shoot

[mtbell68]

nope - halbard in CC is 2-handed. - and, you can kill the hydra's beast handlers in combat - IF, they are the only model you can reach - otherwise, you have to allocate attacks to the hydra

[cantbebotheredtoname]

I'm pretty sure you can use Halberd and Shield, at least Chaos Warriors Halbeard is 1H and they can use it with a Shield..

[thedarklordellesar]

but thats chaos its a special rule for chaos

[JohnChAsur]

Which I don't think exists ;).

[JohnChAsur]

I'm sorry - where does it say in the Chaos Warriors Army Book they have a one-handed halberd?

[thedarklordellesar]

yeah i dont think it exists either i mean chaos warrriors are beefed up and everything but there is no way that a halberd could be held 1 handed.... then it would be just an axe

[JohnChAsur]

Fair enough. I think cantbebotheredtoname must have been thinking of something else.

[Jesyce86]

I play WoC and there is no such rule, Halberds are swung with 2 hands just like with any other army.

[JohnChAsur]

Uh-hu already reached that concl. ;). I'm just building a 1000 with them as I type.

[LeafFrisbee]

Hydra's handlers cannot be killed until Hydra is. Also Hydra over runs and pursues 2d6 not 3d6.

[Natraps1221]

happy new year btp

[fragmaster345]

happy new year!

[lysemads]

Happy new year! :D

[becklover]

man that block of skaven with the plague furnace looks so damn huge

[paulitop1]

happy new year btp u 2 r really starting to get the hang of warhammer, great to watch, i think the hydras will eat the furnace all up, cant wait to see what happens

[sasjhwa]

Usually if I clear my cache and refresh the vids run just fine. There is always wonky stuff when a video is only a few minutes old so waiting 1/2 hour or so for youtube to get it all settled can work too.

[liamweight]

The way hydra's work is that the handlers can only be hurt if flanked. When they die I think the hydra suffers from stupidity but not sure, don't have the dex infront of me ;)

[blackbeard00]

great game so far! real nail-biter!

[KillKrazy666]

i still wanna know the name of the song at the biginning....

[bluetablepainting]

This is all generic royalty-free music.

[dreadloom]

Oh Btw, I dont think the handlers can die, because in the hydra section of the DE codex it says that the handlers always go behind the hydra, they are protected by the hydra at all times :)

[dreadloom]

Dark Elves rule :)

Happy New Year BTP :P

[Sasherra]

For me it loads the first minute or so and stops, sad isn't it?

[AlaricDarkvoid]

Hmm.. cant watch it for some reason. Anyone know a way to fix this?

[bruno12332]

happy new year BTP

[darmamu]

man I just love those dark elves

[Zekido]

Guh why is there always an error when I try watching videos just posted!

[clubace090]

[RXS15]

What kind of paints do you use?
