I made another video but rather than a batrep, this one is all about what we should aspire to as competitive wargamers. What we should do more of, what to avoid, and good practice to become a better player. Keen to hear what you fine folks think. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/xzyet5D5pRc?si=_sw16do8aNFkNjuG

I must say that if all is correct it looks somewhat positive, but... Now, being a true infantry-head, most of all spear infantry (because serried ranks of spears look soooo good) I man not totally enamoured with hand weapon + shield being boosted but spears getting the finger, again. Throughout his...

And here's another game, this time vs Bretonnian Exiles with a Monster Slaying Baron in tow. https://youtu.be/hN_xFIVIKgg

Here's hoping they do! And anyway, as long as you're enjoying it, that's what matters.

Managed to get another High Elf game in last night. This time vs a Bretonnian Exiles player. Started off really well and was looking like it was heading for 20-0 and then the Green Knight came on. And on again. And on again... FML! Anyway, through to the final after this game, so hopefully be bringi...

Looks interesting for sure! I wonder if it can be improved upon by swapping the Noble BSB for a Sea Garrison Commander? You'd need some extra points to fit him in, so probably need to drop some bolt throwers on the Skycutters (personally, they've never worked for me) but in return you get an extra ...

This is great. I have been working on coming up with a competitive Seaguard list and it is not easy. Hard to be punchy enough to deal with behemoths and dragons. Here is a list I have been running that has been fun, and with some good play has performed quite well. Our meta does heavily play with o...

Interesting you have already trialled the White Lion unit with Battle Magic, and great feedback that you still wished you had High Magic during those games. I think I’ll take some of your experience and stick with Higb Magic for now. If infantry get a bit more of a boost (not likely) in the rules u...

Hi, It's been a very long time since I played WHFB and I have never played a game of Warhammer, The Old World but I have paid to enter The Forgotten North 2000 point tournament in November so need to get some games in or I'm going to embarrass myself and all my opponents. I wanted to ask, what in y...

Ok, ok. How about this version then? It's got a little bit more punch, so can hopefully go in for the kill and hope there's no attacks back 😄 325 - Sea Guard Garrison Commanders, Warbow, Heavy Armour, Shield, Battle Standard Bearer, Griffon, Star Lance, Dragon Helm, Seed of Rebirth 232 - Sea Guard G...

Hey Pash, Great to see you giving the Warhost a crack! My most recent list is Chracian theme and I am determined to stick with it. I only just managed to have my first game with it a couple of nights ago against WoC and similar list iteration to yours (with a BSB instead of Korhil). Some take aways...

Thanks chief! Seems to be the niche i've fallen into - background painting music :lol: I'll take it though, just glad people like it. What do you think of the background music? I've added it to the last 5-6 vids and have been experimenting with the volume, as some people have complained it's too lo...

Here's the game vs the VC with much the same build as above, just with banners. https://youtu.be/RxazO-ctwo8

Another week, another HE game. This time HE Grand Army vs VC. Turns out i should have brought more Opal Amulets... https://youtu.be/RxazO-ctwo8

Is this a better or worse version? It has given up magical attacks on the dragon, and dry-rolling 4 spells on Elements BUT instead it has a really chunky mid-threat unit of Helms with a ton of static res to go and pair up with the dragon or go wreck some other mid-tier units. 210 - Archmage, Sea Gua...

Yeah, for efficiency, you'd want Battle Banner BSB in those WL, for sure. That way you'd have 2-4 Static res extra to rely on, which Korhil just wouldn't provide himself. It might end up going that way but for now, i'll give the ol' lionbraids a run out and see how he gets on.

I like that you've gone elementalism, increasingly think it may actually be the best lore for us. Did a bit of maths and realised plague of rust is the biggest combat buff any of our units can get in most situations, so it's not just for shooting, and also has a big range compared so other buffs (a...

Alright, so here's another direction. I've just realised that Sea Guard Commanders have Evasive on anything other than Skycutters. Which means you can have Evasive Griffons :lol: Paired with the fact that SGG magic is pretty pants, I thought to lean into that a bit more and go no magic, full Evasive...

This is tweaked version of what i've been running for the OWL 2.0 online event recently. That event requires standards, which i've cut out for this version of the list. It's a slightly more tuned, slightly more barebones version. See what you guys think. 225 - Archmage, Sea Guard, Wizard Level 4, El...

Thank you for sharing this, Pash. Much appreciated! So far I actually thought that one peculiar strenght of the SGG list was the larger access to flying units and skycutters in particular. Since you did not include any flying units at all, I was wondering what your reasoning was for this. What spel...

I keep coming back to the white lions in this list. With korhil and the AM they sit at nearky 900 points and I'm struggling to see how you'd use them in a way that would justify that. I guess the plan to use WBW with the AM to keep them safeish when receiving a charge? My worry with the big expensi...

I tried (really, I did!) to make a Sea Guard list work but the one time I put it on the table, it just landed like a wet fart. Some fun gimmicks in it but really hard to take something competitive out of it, at least in it's current format. I know you want to discuss your Chrace list, but actually ...

Ok, so here's the list I put together. It did not perform particularly well. Mainly just lacks punch and no way to realisably stop a dragon flying at you. Still, there were some fun elements so maybe there's something there for the future. 170 - Ishaya Vess, Sentinel of the Silent Isle, General 142 ...

Have been enjoying getting my High Elves on the (virtual) table recently, so decided to take an AJ list to a local 1-dayer that's coming up in a few weeks. I tried (really, I did!) to make a Sea Guard list work but the one time I put it on the table, it just landed like a wet fart. Some fun gimmicks...

Great content as always -- love listening during hobby time! Kind regards, Axiem Thanks chief! Seems to be the niche i've fallen into - background painting music :lol: I'll take it though, just glad people like it. What do you think of the background music? I've added it to the last 5-6 vids and ha...

Got another batrep up on the YT channel. This time facing against a tough O&G player with some sneaky goblin shenangians. Here's the link as usual - https://youtu.be/KhWPEE-gkgY

Pushed some of my own High Elves into a non-typical Chaos army this week for an online event. Was looking good... until it didn't. Hope there's some learning points for you lot in here because there certainly were for me https://youtu.be/dHSlx8jsRzY?si=_MxfmPiYY_QPgvb3

I think the lack of clarity is really due to the presence of the term "join the unit". This is an action, not a constant state of existence. Ideally, they'd change it to "can only be part of" or something along those lines. Still, since RAW is as silly as RAI, I think the best th...

Played another High Elf player with my Warriors for the WTC Online event. Very close game and very tough opponent!

https://youtu.be/ybRQpd0w6UU

So I played vs Ed Fawcett (of Close Order, playing for WTC Team England) and his High Elves vs my Chaos Warriors knight bus (for WTC Team Wales). It was a super swingy match up and I think there were several instances where the game could have massively swung either way. There weren't many models le...
