- In this game we have two 650 point thematic armies matched up against each other! It's the defenders of Minas Tirith against the Siege of Minas Tirith Army! This is a great game with Gandalf the White and Gothmog. Who will win? Watch to find out!
- Hry
Very cool to see Denethor in action. That madness strikes at the most illogical times, but then.. that is madness.
Such a great game to watch; absolute nail-biter. Always great to see an "off-meta" suboptimal list like that Minas Tirith list doing well against something that is reasonably optimized & "competitive" - love to see it. Constructive criticism: I always appreciate batrep channels (MESBG or any other game) posting their army lists either in the video or in the description. A verbal summary & a close-up of the models at the start of the vid just isn't the same as looking at a written roster (ideally you should have both).
Dude this battle report is crazy ! Jacob had the best list by far, and yet lost, which I think is INCREDIBLE ! And I appreciate watching other caracters such as Gandalf, the knight of the white tower, for a bit more diversity !
It was so strange at the end of the game I was so happy that Daley won. Going into the game I was worried I would just walk over his army but he played it to perfection
Ironically, Denethor going crazy at the end might have been a good thing, since Jacob didn't try to wound him even if he was in the thick of battle, thus not scoring VPs for that
I was to excited trying to kill Daley's own models! If I had have wounded him it would have been a draw!
@@ConquestCreations but how often do you get to use your opponents own hero to kill his own troops. screw the draw fun for the win.
That paintjob on the mordor stuff is great, so many unique and interesting paintjobs on this channel have me constantly rethinking paint schemes while i wait for models to arrive
Need more MESBG in my life. Your bat reps are great!
Thanks mate! There are heaps more coming
That paint job on Gandalf is insane!
Love the crisp audio thanks to the new mics. 👍
Thanks mate, we have had them for a few videos but I'm glad you noticed!
Great to see Denethor! Never seen him in action and this was the perfect display, going crazy at the end. Awesome battle rep, as usual!
Great to see some different models on the battlefield, great batrep, thanks for taking the time to do. and well done to MT.
Great battle report yet again, never disappoints. Would love to see a series of campaign based battle reports that spread out over 5+ or so videos. ( don’t know if such a thing exists but would be cool to see). Keep up the great work guys!
Very entertaining battle report!
I'd love to see more longer videos with strategy discussions
Thanks mate, I reckon I'll try out a different style Batrep just to give it a shot
Really enjoyed the thematic lists for this game. Very enjoyable
My day is always better after seeing your video! :D
I'm glad you enjoy the content!
Love the thematic games!!!
I love seeing Gandalf on the table! Thanks for the video
I absolutely love these more thematic battles
Thanks mate! We will have some narrative play on the way
So hyped up for playing my Minas Tirith on Saturday now. First time for a tournament for them.
Good luck! What list are you bringing?
@@purerel not pure Minas tbh. 400pts/105 min/ 4 games. Captain w shield, 4 Rangers w Spear, 6 Warriors w Shield, 1 Warrior w Shield&Spear, 1 Warrior w Shield, Spear&Banner, Erkenbrand, 7 Westfold Redshields, 2 Riders
Goodluck mate!
Great report lads...
Aboutely threw that at the end but looked like great fun battle to play. A good watch
I thought I had an easy win and Daley played it perfectly and got me!
Haven't watched the video yet, but my $ is on the evil side, Gothmog and Morannons slap.
Thanks mate! Enjoy the video when you get the chance
Really good batrep!🎉
Awesome battle and well fought from both sides! Could have gone either way which all the best games do! ^^ Keep up the great work! :)
Thanks mate!
Jacob, any plans for conquests champion league S3? Really looking forward to it.
Keep your eyes open! You'll hear something very soon
Fantastic report. Great to see gandalf used well. Often considered low tier but can do well. Also denethor is awesome and I love the thematic rules. Would be nice to see the lists if possible. Thanks!
My age of the orc also usually misses as well so I know the feeling. It’s still fun to say it in gothmogs voice tho.
So keen - I love watching these videos while I’m playing Raid SL on mobile device 🥰 keep it up!

Is this a bot comment? LMAO
I also consume content on my ANDROID™ phone while having a COCA COLA™
@@JohnnyTightIipsI ain’t saying nothin’
This might have been the most tense bat rep yet! I thought Jacob was set to slaughter the Minas Tirith army on Turn 5, and that didn't pan out. I had no idea which way the game was going to go.
Love your battle reports, the improvement from your early stuff is mental! I know Gandalf is expensive, but when he's used well he seems to be very effective, especially if the game goes long, is he a bit underrated?
I see him often at the bottom of tier lists. I actually really rate him and this video was a great showcase of his power
I love these Battle Reports 👌 will we see this scenario in an future Kickstarter project by Conquest Creations? 😁
This scenery is from another company but keep your eyes open. We are just giving our backers of Kingdom of Azragor a chance to print it all out before launching our next one!
@@ConquestCreations ahah I watch all of your videos and I saw some Elvish scenario. Maybe that's the next one? You don't have to answer, I will support that project anyway because I really want to help your channel and your great work 🙏
Denethor is exceptional, he is my all time favourite model to use.
35 points is a total bargain for a hero of valour!
Awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!
The troll got absolutely wrecked. Troll sad, troll no can do smash 😢
Make sure you always pierce with Gandalf next time!
Make sure you never bring hobbits
nice patintet lads jesus ^^
Any chance you could share the army lists?
35pts for that madlad Denethor. He's fun haha
As a Minas Tirith player, and an avid Gandalf the White defender, I had a raging erection the entire video.
I declare myself a worshiper of the church of Daley, may his majestic facial mane grace us every video this channel publishes in the future. The accurate use of spells, the perfect positioning for the heroic moves, the stoic confindence that his dice would deliver... His handling of the Wizard was a sight to behold.
Jacob; the people have spoken: "Give us more Daley".
Side note: if Denethor fails a coursge check for broken mind, can the opponent make him charge his own models? If so, it feels Jacob missed the opportunity to get some leader wounds or even kill.
You can but he'd already killed about 8 morannons so might not be the best play!
Totally correct, I only lost by 1 point so wounding him would have gotten me a draw but it was way to exciting to think about using him to kill his own guys!
Should pippin have had to make a courage test to charge the troll after dismounting from Gandalf?
Yeah he did. We just don't include every dice roll to try to keep it as short as possible
Build me an army worthy of Mordor... 🖌🥺 painted 3 models of 60😓. I like the off-white on the orcs looks evil.
Hahahaha these guys have been on the painting desk for ages now! My next army is another horde so I've signed up for a lot of painting
Nice! where's the ruins of a city of men terrain from?
This is from RM printable but if you are interested in the ruins of a city of men I would wait a few weeks. Something might be brewing
THE PIPSTER!! Hot take: Pipin should have 2 might.
I'm down, let's give him a boost if he is protecting Gandalf as well
lovely mordors
Thanks mate, I'm really happy with how this army is coming together
Gothy Moggy!
Gothy moggy makes me finish
The time of the orc has come...
Can denethor kill his own troops? I'm smelling house rules XD Pipin jumping off horse tho seems ok, so why it isn't in the game :c
Yes he can, he has a rule where if he fails a courage test at the start if the turn the opposing player controls him for that turn.
All official rules!
@@ConquestCreations lol you are right, there is nothing about killing your own Only that they can't hurt you. Intresting how it works if you charge both good and evil models. O.o
Whats the Terrain?
That is from RM studio but if you like the ruins of a city of men I would wait. We may have something on the way!
el classico
Are there rules for Gandalf and Pippin on horse?
Wondering this too! Did I miss an errata or did they just house rule it?
We just used the passenger rules as detailed in the Main Rule Book. It typically isn't used in Matched play but we figured with the nice model and the thematic match up it would be a fun inclusion
@@ConquestCreationsThat's the best of ruling!
@@ConquestCreations It's really weird that it's not in the game baseline, considering we have Dernhelm as an example.

From "very confident" to some positioning mistakes and Gondor's dice getting hot at the end... and narrowly losing. That's wargaming for ya! 😂
Your totally correct! I lost but I was a great game!
Comment👍
Thanks mate!
Haven’t watched it yet but my guess is Minas tirith loses, Gandalf the white is terrible and way overcosted unfortunately
I would recommend watching it
Great bat rep! Encouraging to see the old wizard actually do work!
