Two videos in a single day! 2020 is the year of Zorpazorp!
Hahaha 100mil subs HERE WE COOOOOOMMEEEE.... I'd be amazed with 50k ;)
Love your videos, could I request a close up of the models at the beginning, brilliant seeing the quality of the painting etc
Lots more CU on the way!
Purchased Pellenor Fields because of your channel. Now have Gothmogs legion, pretty much all of Rohan, Harad ,Minith Tirith and Lothlorien plus all the books. You've cost me a small fortune you bastard.😉😆
GW should start paying me commission 😂😂😂 fucking hell. Apologies to your bank account, your welcome for the many years of joy that plastic crack addiction will grant you!
Loved this bat rep Lachie! Watching these latest videos is definitely making me want to push forward with a full on Rohan army
One of the best games to date! Even got some real-life thunder at that crucial turn. Shout out to all the awesome guys who guest star, Ryan is great and Zorp seems well-matched. Badass board, man just so much awesome!
Love the board and catch wait to see the fords of isen Scenarios!
Thanks dude, me too!!!!!
Well this is just awesome! I think you guys are doing a great job with all of your videos. War in Rohan looks amazing and great legendary legions. I hope somewhere in the future GW will add in a Thranduil's Halls LL, fingers crossed. Also Ugluk's scouts look absolutely awesome. The models look great too.
That would be an interesting legion for sure! Thanks man :)
Great stuff and thank you for getting me back into MESBG again and just one thing would love some close ups of the armies before the game. 50k inbound keep up the good work.
That was a bloody good game! and I enjoyed watching that very much, I like how you explain some rules as you go as its great for a viewer! And two great armies, and opponents! :):)
Glad you enjoyed it
Great tables and paint jobs. Wonderful showcase. God, I need a raise this year! Games like this is gonna make me miss rent.
Hahaha they do make it hard :D
When the UrukHai force was broken, the Uruk models would still have had to take courage as they do not get their isenguard rule of only taking courage after 66% so they would have still had to take courage tests at 50%
You're absolutely right Joshy, I did a silly 😂
@@Zorpazorp Haha we all make mistakes!! :D
Glad you did this video. Was really struggling to put together a 500pt Ugluk list without 4 heroes. This has a nice balance. Grishnak with shield instead of Shagna though. Few less bows on my list though and a few mordor with spear and shield gives a bit of extra defense for those soft Mordor chaps.
Yeah definitely Grishnahk, Snaga is pretty situational!
ELFHELM IS LIFE :D
Really digging you and Ryan playing together, makes for nice games.
One small thing I noticed: Grimbold only has a two-handed weapon, so always -1 to the Duel roll (didn't really matter in this game though).
Noooo, you have to take courage tests at 50%!!! The army bonus doesn't apply to the LL :( Whole discussion about how you can sacrifice the orcs and it isn't true :(
Scarten oooh that’s something I didn’t notice about that legendary legion
OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO woah that is big!!!! Man we can't get these legions right hahahaha
@@Zorpazorp yeah they seem to change things so subtly that I'd taken for granted as force wide rules!
@@Bog_Dog Indeed haha!
Uruk scouts and Rohan, my two favourite factions.
So first of all great vid! Love the enthusiasm you both have. One question though i thought you couldnt use heroic moves to charge? Thanks in advance, looking forward to more content
You're thinking of heroic marches mate :) heroic moves are absolutely for setting up charges :) glad you enjoyed it though!
Best Saruman I've seen up to date!
Loving the videos guys will be following them all! Definitely keen to see how the legion with Eomer and Gandalf performs.
Now have legit reasons to own every Rohan hero I think. Probablt would have happened anyway, lots of horses to paint after Christmas!
Love how the Ugluk force works definitely tempted to build towards that as a first evil force. And I also feel the loss of +1 S on the charge will hurt but didn’t stop Rohan this game!
Yeah finally Erkenbrand is back!!! Although still no reason to ever use Hama haha but good for scenarios :)
The scouts is a great evil force for sure and fun for a first time evil player!
@@Zorpazorp ah yeah I ordered him off ebay all the same when I saw Id need to buy Gamling again to get him! Could be fun in some helms deep scenario or such and as well to pick up anyway ( I have a problem hahaha) . And sure I definitely was waiting for an excuse to get Erkenbrand and paint some redshields!
@@Bog_Dog Yeah I love the old redshields!!
Great video!! Theodreds guard is awesome!! Really liked the similarities with the Battle of fords of Isen. Orc and Uruks sounds like a good combo and movement 8 is quite nice. Shooting into combat and wounding Ugluk sucks 🤣 & poor Snaga who now has a model (being late sucks).
Cheers Lachie!!
Yeah I made some foolish plays haha and it cost me big time!"!!
@@Zorpazorp we all do!! How is the quarantine going?
I like these videos but I would love just a 20 sec tour of the models, they look like they have some beautiful paint
Well do more model close-ups
Never thought of taking theodred due to not being able to get his model, have the model now so that will change.
I am confused about why isenguard didn't break as that is an army rule and not a LL, have I missed something?
Nah I'm, just an idiot haha :D so used to the army bonus!
So Theo-dred is pretty much Frodo for the fellowship army in this legendary legion.
Indeed! But a bit more silly!
Killy***
I thought Rohan was done for early on. Brutal game.
Yeah there was a big swing!!!
Now I want theodred!!
He is a beast!
I'm pretty sure that in the magazine (the one with 80 issues that came with models, scenarios et cetera) rohan warriors were able to support with their throwing spears, was that rule changed or was the magazine incorrect?
You're talking about the de Agostini published ones? I've got my copies still I'll have to check any idea which issue?
@@TuorTheBlessedOfUlmo I don't remember any issue in particular, but I know that rohan warriors were introduced fairly early in the series
great board wish I had that talant
It's all totally achievable stuff man, just dig in and get practicing!
I really want Elfhelm after watching this haha
He's only 75 points mounted too :)
How to get does corpses for the ground?
There is a bunch of different models that ocme with corpses, including the casualty pack which was released at one point but it's pretty hard to track down.
Should enemies get knocked down by charging cavalry who win their fight?
As long as the charging cavalry model is only fighting infantry :)
Great vid but we wana see close ups of the armies as the start. Shame as they look very well painted.
There are close ups bro?
@@Zorpazorp I know but we wana see the armies more as you talk about the lists maybe.keep up the good work anyway ☺
@@tohellbk3211 Roger Roger!! More close ups on order 😁
So you are able support with throwing spears. We have been playing battle companies and i didnt think you could
That's a bonuis for this legendary legion :) You can't normally do it:)
@@Zorpazorp ahh ok that's cool.
wish we had figures and parts for realms in 3.75 scale
54:28 I’m sure grimbold should of lost that fight he’s two handed without burley or master forged and you both rolled 3’s? Great battle tho!!
You might be right! thanks dude!
Hi Lachie! I'm trying to find a video where you mentioned Snaga's abilities and possible shenanigans by avoiding some heroics and then he himself calling one. Any idea what video that could be?
Try the War in Rohan review buddy :)
I love my Rohan infantry. A good general backs up the infantry with cavalry and never let's the cavalry ride without adequate infantry support.
They're not bad in a few of the Legions :) but give me Theoden's riders every time XD
@@Zorpazorp Fielding a swarm of infantry is such a great way of throwing off the opponent. Do they go after the middle units of infantry, or the flanks of cavalry?
I like to use them in lines, to move forward then when they hit the blob of enemies (often 4x2 spear or 4x3 pike formations) the infantry can surround the blob peeling off support units and/or attacking the middle ranks; hoping to possibly getting trapped units. At 7 or 9points per model, I can field a few more guys.
I'm one of those unorthodox players.
Rohan is my favourite army.
@@TheEldarGuy Throwing spears are a must too for the infantry blob! Getting those unexpected kills can totally fracture your opponents formation and setup more of those traps!
@@Zorpazorp Where are you guys located? I'm in Melbourne.
10k E for everything lol insane gg
Haha thanks man :D
0:34 are those metal uruks?
Yeah man :)
You're spoiling us!
Oh stop it :D
If you feel better I once killed my own Saruman with a crosbow. Funilly enough that won me the game because I denied an heroic combat of Eomer an Theodred that would have catapulted them into my uruk with the relic 🤣.
Edit: I also killed like 4 to 5 of my uruks and only like 2 riders of rohan from shooting in combat
Anyone in New York or Pennsylvania still play this?
Check the ASBGA facebook page! They'll hook you up :) American Strategy Battle game Alliance
@@Zorpazorp I had no idea that was a thing! Thanks a ton!!!
One suggestion is to let your guest speak and try not to talk over them, happened a few times was all.
Noted 😁
