Amazing. I would appreciate if you continue this series and do a faction specific buying guide,if you can.
Thanks! That's the plan! Got my next one in the works too!
Amazing video. Please continue. You make it a lot easier to start!
I love the channel, keep those video coming. Can't wait to see the rest of the crews get the same treatment
Glad to hear you're enjoying! Plan is to cover every crew!
Great breakdown and advice. Really glad you folks are pumping out great BMG content like this.
Thank you! Glad you're enjoying it!!
Thanks so much for these intros. Not sure if you're gonna continue the series, but appreciate the work already done nevertheless!
Thanks, that's been a very useful guide !
Glad you got some use out of it!!
Another great video, thank you very much. Looking forward to the joker crew.
great review, I love how you explain all the points🤩👍 this channel will be of great help to the gaming community, especially those who have an interest in BMG.
excellent video editing and the confidence you show will make the channel grow fast, I wish you success.
Thank you for the kind words! Happy you enjoyed!
Great video. Batman crew is my favorite deck so far. I've played joker, league, birds of prey and just started soldiers.
Thanks! They're a lot of fun - definitely one of my favorites too!
@@DiscourseMinis I bought the Arkham Knight militia set for my step son to use. I ordered the smaller bane set that comes with those 3 elite ops to supplement it. I think Bane is a real monster. Pair him with that shield dude that will give him protective and waltz up the field.
@@michaelricker9805 Yeah I think that Soldier's of Fortune are really good, and I'm a fan of Bane too - he can really put the hurt on! I'm hoping to have some of the militia make an appearance in the next battle report alongside Scarecrow.
Just found your channel... this is going to be great!
Hope you enjoy!
Great stuff 😊 I am still hoping they bring more stuff out for the cops maybe more sidekick type heroes to better mix up a pure cop team. Also again some more back to back of you on camera even for a little bit. It suits you, you seem super relaxed even from the bit at the start. Again great video, by far the best for doing breakdowns on the game, characters etc...
I hope so too! Looks like Joker is next up for next month, but I'd welcome a Batman month at some stage where some more sidekicks get added. Thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed!
@@DiscourseMinis Yes I saw that the other day and I was excited the model looks great! I think they are getting better and better tbh. Did they ship your stuff from the last time? I think mine should be here by Wednesday or so.
@@yagsipcc287 Yup, my Black Mask order is on the way to me, so hoping to get it soon!
@@DiscourseMinis Very nice. Did you paint up your derpy Adam West? :P I laughed so hard when you showed it off in the unboxing slight warping alright ha
@@yagsipcc287 Yeah it really got to me haha. I haven't painted him up yet - I actually haven't even put him together yet! Been focused on getting the Penguin and Militia box sets built and painted for our next battle report!
I had another question if you don't mind. If I use poision ivy as my boss, not the newest version... she has the gotham city sirens keyword. I put harley in the crew the version where she gives all models with that keyword her unpredictable ability, so their special becomes a wildcard. Ivy has scientific and can use 2 special abilities. Does that mean she can forfeit them both to move 3 times or attack 3 times?
I'm actually not 100% sure! They're both eternal models which I haven't played with before, but I would guess that Scientific comes into effect if you perform a Special actions. Importantly, unpredictable states that you can spend your special actions as "another type of action" which makes me thing you're not performing a special action when you use your wildcard, instead if you move it's a movement action, or if you attack it's an attack action etc. This means that scientific doesn't trigger because you didn't perform a special action. That's just my quick interpretation of the rules, and I'm willing to be convinced otherwise, mind!
Are eternal models not really legal in this game? Maybe not in tournaments, but in house rules... something like that?
As that version of harley is by far my favorite.
@@michaelricker9805 You can certainly play with them, it's just assumed that they won't be tournament legal!
I don't even play this game and I wanna get myself that red hood model
It's so good, right! I adore the Knight Model sculpts
@@DiscourseMinis I've just ordered it I'm ganna paint it up over the weekends
@@JoshMC2000 nice!
@@DiscourseMinis question can you use the citadel glue and paints on this models as there not plastic
@@JoshMC2000 Nope, they are resin models so you'll need to use super glue. I'd also recommend giving them a wash in some lukewarm soapy water before assembly too.
: D
Wait.. Your not yelling?
Oh no don’t tell me the starter set is out of stock again 🤦🏿♂️
There's a few things temporarily out of stock (including the starter set) but I'm not worried about it going away completely this time!
