Fire Lizards vs Tomb Kings 01 (Warning: long Valhalla intro)

[Drojira]

I knew BTP's location looked familiar! I was just working out west on the UPRR in Salt Lake... A couple of my workers got in some trouble and we ended up staying in Spanish Fork for a while. Love the Rockies. You're lucky to get to see them all the time!

[Apok336]

Skirmishers don; have Quick to Fire... They can March and Fire but they are not quick to fire:)

[50033836]

@Apok336 The weapons are quick to fire, not the skirmishers themselves. :) Javelins and blowpipes are QTF.

[Apok336]

@50033836 I'm sorry, but Only Javelins are QTF... blowpipes aren't:(:( Thats why javs are more expensive on skirmisher units:)

[MrYesman666]

When the Casket exploded and 1 unit of Cameleons fled it would have caused panic checks in the other units of skinks.

[Patrick033189]

did he say those are 3 units of 5 skirmishers? i thought minimum for a skirmish squad was 10.

[leokill27]

Throne of vines on the first miscast?

[Emidretrauqe]

So poison works on skeletons?

Huh.

[Arbeta10000]

@Lizardknight1 thx! Now my friends unit of 12 skink with blowpipe won't kill My unit of 10 dark elf cold one knights in one round of shooting! And i have proof tht its true thx to u! :)

[SaimHannRookie]

casket has a 4+ wardsave :P

[warhammerarmchairgen]

@SaimHannRookie actually no it doesnt. Its cool to go and read the book published in 2011 before posting so we arent all confused.

[alittleclever]

Skirmishers still take a -1 to shoot when moving. They're just allowed to march and shoot. (BRB pg. 77). 

[999rubicon]

Flyers fly 20". They charge 10" plus the best 2 dice of 3d6.

[warhammerarmchairgen]

@999rubicon Seriously? read page 70. I think the wording "Flight is represented by a swoop or glide of up to 10 inches" is CRYSTAL clear. Unless Im failing at math here, they fly 10" march 20". Since TK cant march, they move 10".

[Pili11111]

The casket counts as a warmarchine and crew so you need to ramdmise the wounds and there are 3 creww and 3 wounds on the casket so in affect it still could be alive

[alittleclever]

@Pili11111 This is incorrect. When shooting at a warmachine you use the toughness value of the warmachine and the crew's armor save. But warmachines have wounds equal to the crew. You never randomize between the warmachine and crew. You may be thinking of the Monsters and Handlers rule. (BRB pg. 109)

[newtpondskipper]

He doesn't seem like he's happy.

[bugbait1]

I think saying that the lizardmen list is cheese is a little to much. what’s wrong with him taking a slaan and putting it in a unit of temple guard? Those two are kinda meant for each other. And yes they are playing for fun, so I don’t think its cheese to take any kind of list, seeing as you are playing for fun it shouldn’t matter whether your army is "to competitive" or not. Just my thoughts on the matter I guess

[stethespaniard2]

aren't undead immune to poison effects?

[Pili11111]

@stethespaniard2 no thats the old idition i belive that was l,ike 6th and tomb kings are no longer like vampire counts they have 2 seprate undead types 

[HonestIowan]

I really want you to beat this guy, Shawn. He needs to be humbled a bit.

[Lui13D]

In mexico it is rude to speak with your mouth open..but not harm done :D

[hammerfall4thewin]

Go for talking with food in the mouth!!!!!!!

[REDTROOP44]

Love the board. You guys deffently play in the Grand Manner.

[purpleSun6292]

NICE PLUG

[Ghaz3k]

sadly the only time a Razordon is going to out perform a Salamander is when shooting at a single model(character or monster), and even the monsters with T6+ shrug off most of it, Stego charge and magic is gonna do you better.

[yodapwns]

Nice game there. I thought his opponent was good, he really knew his stuff.

[blitzr0809]

"perfectly average so far".........famous last words :P

[bitterseason13]

Hmmmm the HD still doesn't look right. Sorry if this has been said before.

[nickray76]

shawn and everyone at btp, your bat reports have probably become the best online now. the last one you did w/ chaos vs your tk was excellent. keep up the good work and keep pumping those batreps out like you have been! cant wait for the next parts on this vid. ps, dont let him get off throne of vines next time :)

[anubis418]

Can anyone tell me what is better for saurus, spears or hand weapon shield?

[nickray76]

depends on what you use them for. with the h/w you get the parry and w/ the shield you dont but you get 3rd rank attacks only when you dont charge. spears are defensive, hw are good all around but shields are 1 point more and if you have to cut points then they should be cut.  i run more hw shields than spears in my 2500 list@anubis418

[HonestIowan]

The table looks fantastic.

[HonestIowan]

What's up with all the bare feet? Seems like every battle report there's someone with bare feet. I'm not trying to be a dick, it's just that it's very unhygenic.



[Xarmeister]

I would love to see some close up shots of those lizardmen. I've been trying to find inspiration for just that kind of color scheme.

[jgascoine011]

THIS is the cheesiest lizardmen list

a slaan with everything on it, 2 units of salamanders big unit of temple guard

Its like come on dude, play for fun and stop being a douch

esp with that whole, throne of vines and dwellers

and u have fire lizardmen, take lore of fire

[nickray76]

@jgascoine011 its not cheesy, you just dont know how to beat it yet. run a dwarf army, they can take 3 dispel scrolls (runes) per character, take away opponents power dice, and have all types of buffs to dispel. lizardmen have no range and are slow, dwarfs can blast / warmachine them and take away their magic altogether. and no one should ever take the lore of fire... ever

[HonestIowan]

@jgascoine011 TOTALLY agree. I said basically the same thing but had my comment deleted. You are so right though...his list is super cheesy. And by cheesy, I don't mean "hard to beat."

[jgascoine011]

@HonestIowan yea if he is in a tournament then by all means take the list

but playing shawn with his tomb kings, dont go trying to kill his linch high priest with a super cheesy spell like dwellers in the 1st turn

if you do that then he may as well call it game there

[cjpendleton1993]

2:50 shawn he's giving you the finger!

[Maalve1]

Aren't that the lizardmen from the Lizardmen vs. Alchemists of Chaos BatRep? That's an army BTP made right?

[gameaholic18]

the guy he is playing against is kinda annoying, he seems very arrogant. making it look like you no onthing of the game.

[tg01millmorer]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but dont warmachine crew get a 4+ Ward from shooting because they use their artillery (or in this case the Casket) as cover?

[LordEsel88]

@tg01millmorer No, they don't get any ward save, but instead use the war machine's toughness against shooting attacks and the crew's armour save. Using the war machine's toughness is what counts as the crew hiding behind the war machine for cover. Should you want a reference then it is on page 109 in the main rulebook.

[tg01millmorer]

@LordEsel88

Good call, I was thinking of the Dwarf Anvil of Doom which gets a 4+ ward from shooting. Got em mixed up

[goatrek]

@tg01millmorer Nope, the fact that they take cover is represented by the high Toughness the get to use. (The Toughness from the warmachine)

[warhammerarmchairgen]

@tg01millmorer No. warmachine crew have no cover save. 40K perhaps??

[Shannariano]

10:46 it's just 12 models...

[MegaSquig]

Awesome video. Your batreps and general videos are really inspiring and really motivational.

Keep up the awesome work.

[crsxii]

Here in Sweden everybody talks with their mouth full. You would love it, Shawn. Why not bring that amazing board over sometime to the original realms of Valhalla? BTP should open it's european studio right here in Stockholm.

[TinyArts]

@crsxii Ett btp i stockholm vore fint. Tjata lite mer på Shawn :)

[captaingallas]

@TinyArts

Många svenskar som är BTP fans! :)

(many Swedes that are BTP-fans)

[bluetablepainting]

@crsxii Did that bit make it in? I meant to edit it out.

[Jesyce86]

@crsxii heck yea!

[Silverws69]

may the guests imbide in alcohol whilst attending valhalla?

[bluetablepainting]

@Silverws69 Of course. It's up to them. Sundance is a resort and the current place is about four minutes from restaurants/bars.

[Arbeta10000]

Isn't poisoned attacks no armor saves?

[Lizardknight1]

@Arbeta10000 No thats killing blow. Poisoned attacks are auto wound on a to hit roll of 6 :)

[Randomcrapname80]

I really appreciate the effort you guys put into these videos, but the HD is wasted. Its actually worse quality than when you just watch it at 360p.

[bluetablepainting]

@Randomcrapname80 As I mentioned before, we are working on this. I am still using my plain old flip. Just hold tight people, my main goal is to keep the quantity up.

[HonestIowan]

@bluetablepainting I'd much rather have quantity over HD...keep it up!

[Dookiedaveuk]

God I hate LM magic

[TTTgundams]

Nice intro! i wish there was landscapes like this here in France. Btw, I'm French and i am not offended. You're chewing food! What's the big deal?

[228zip]

@TTTgundams But another french here is offended =o

[cmdrsausage]

awww Shawn doesn't like rumination, all cows are sad 

[4gs8vh4gs8vh]

the lizards look soooo awesome!!!

[SwiftNightRunner]

God, I wanna play both these armys. I CAN'T CHOOSE!!!!

[reaper9968]

@SwiftNightRunner i dunno about tomb kings i've always wanted to play them myself but lizardmen are a very good choice, they're alot of fun to play and have a good theme/background to the army

[Kris122996]

always great to see videos for BTP

[reaptheglory]

awesome opossum

[MrJonlindborg]

screw offending ppl
