My first ever YouTube video I did was a battle report for my Eldar, and I got slaughtered. So it only seems right that my 300th video on YouTube has to be a battle report with my Eldar also, and hopefully this time I will turn it around. I was up against Orks and I had my new foot list ready to go into battle for the first time...

Congrats on the win! Looked pretty comprehensive! Also congrats on getting to such a milestone, 300 Vids, VERY impressive!
ReplyDeleteThanks buddy, I was happy with how it went, especially impressed with the Dire Avenger and his Power Weapon/Shimmer Shield combo, I usually just take dual cats. Those Flash Gitz were a bit scary for my Eldar though, ignore cover saves, ouch!
ReplyDeleteBesides the win, how'd it go?
ReplyDeleteWe were playing the two objective mission, I decided to ignore his objective and try to win with secondary objectives as standard. I went first, fortuned the lines with night fight turn one and got first blood killing his rocket boyz with my scatter lasers, from then on it was just a case of me holding onto my objective as I gradually sacrificed units as the Orks came in. In the end he conceded on turn six with a few guys left on his objective and a couple of Lootas. I won with all three secondary objectives to his zero. (Hawkes had Line Breaker). We did roll for turn seven, but I had my Council ready to sweep his objective at that point anyway :D
ReplyDeleteIt was a great night and we both had fun, I really liked the list and the Shadow Weavers were awesome :D
Looks like this fella's Orks aren't doing well atm. Would you say Orks are meh in 6th ed or just the way things are going?

Maybe he just need time to find his feet with them, but they do look a little meh at the moment
ReplyDeleteWhen looking at them today they seem to have limited builds. Nob bikers and bikers are silly points; battlewagon isn't enough for what you get; kan wall has problems and greentide seems the only true viable build. I maybe wrong though.
ReplyDeleteWhat's his list?
