Really love the conversion work (and paint job!) of the Night lords, subtle integration of Chaosie stuff whilst holding a strong 30k look. The paintwork on the Dark Angles is also lovely!
Glad you like them! I found some of the 40k chaos stuff seemed to fit quite well with Night Lords so enjoyed sprinkling those in
It’s awesome 🦇
I always loved the idea of these paragons of war, the Dark Angels, with all their history and culture and honor and ancient wargear, being killed by some upjumped gutter rat back alley murderers.
The first company would totally have let a librarian charge off to die alone as well.
So true 😂
Those nightlords looks amazing. I don't play HH so only watched the introduction,but I love seeing the models
They look awesome! 🦇
Thanks! Glad you like them. They also make appearances in 40k at @thebrothersgrimdark
Another great battle report and really enjoyed seeing the night lords. When doing a return fire reaction you roll before pinning and morale checks are made. That's what it said in the FAQ. Awesome job as always, can't wait for more
Yeah spotted it after thanks Simon
Awesome armies guys! Just letting you know, you can't use the terranic greatsword and the boarding shield on the same model because the shield prevents the use of two handed weapons. It barely matters because you can count it as a combat shield and run the greatsword just fine, but you won't get that heavy keyword if that's important.
Yeah we just meant has a shield as im he has one on but he has a 4++ anyway which is always better
"YOU CANNOT USE THE TERRANIC GREATSWORD AND THE BOARDING SHIELD ON THE SAME MODEL"
- Big screen man from George Orwell movie
@@chewie_charmander3101 Correct! Thats why we didnt used the other swords
Just started painting my Night Lords last week. Excited for this one.
Perfect timing then! 🙌🏽
Great to see the Dark Angels again! Keep up the great work with the heresy bat reps
Thanks JaJo
Always love to see more heresy battle reports!
The Spartan should have been wounding the Leviathan dreadnought on 2s with the Lascannons because Vehicles count as 10 models (but Dreadnoughts only count as 1) so it should have had the +1 to wound, which *might* have mattered since it was pretty impactful in the middle-game on those last couple wounds.
In T4 the Night Raptors should have been I5 due to Sudden Strike and struck before the deathbuddies - not that it made a difference with that rolling =)
What a tight game! One or two dice rolls could have really changed the results, glad to see it
Awesome hopefully Rowan sees these bits. Thanks for watching 🦇
Ah great shout! I always forget about the Spartan counting as 10 for outnumber!
Superb as always, thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Tough result for Rowan, took in good grace 👏
Beautiful Night Lords army & table too.
Glad you enjoyed it boss
The camera guy has some of the best consistent rolls from batrep to batrep I’ve ever seen. Should go to vegas with that amount of luck
Hahaha 🎰
The force axe on the Librarian is unwieldy so the leviathan and the terminators would have swung before it, he may have been able to kill all of them before he could swing, though it is unlikely so really it probably only would have meant a couple of extra dead terminators.
Thanks for the update Ed good spot
Ah great shout! I'm always trying to remember to use force and forget it's still unwieldy 🤦♂
Great game, fantastic army Rowan. Hope to see more of you in the Age of Darkness.
🙌🏽 🦇
Love watching the Hersey games. Great battle report
Thanks buddy
Two gorgeous armies lads. Looking forward to this 🎉🎉
Thanks! Playing at No Retreat was a huge motivation for getting these Night Lords all painted up
Thanks Champ 🦇
Guys, waiting for your own reports!)
Fantastic armies! Loving the 30K content
Glad you like them!
I really enjoyed the theme of the Night Lords army. Nice to see something different that worked together nicely :)
Thanks buddy
wow wow wow! Fantastic and amazing game! So tiny and just can't stop laughing from the last turn, total facepalm)
p.s. Forget to do defagorate from dred's shooting on last turn)
Crazy last turn
Great looking armies as always!
❤️
Love a heresy battle report. Amazing looking armies
Thanks
Just a heads up when charging a dreadnought. The dreadnought can only overwatch. The hold is a test that has to be passed or failed but dreadnoughts are fearless. Meaning because they always pass, this is in direct contrast with the rule as the charged players has to take a test. The chance of a fail means they could be swept by the charging opponent on the fall back
Hey Sam sorry but this is not correct Dreads can brace and auto pass. Only reaction they can’t do Is just any reaction that would grant a save or damage mitigation roll
Man that is a good looking Night Lords army
Every time I watch yalls battle reports I want to start another army because it looks cool lol
Thanks 🙏🏽
After the Active player has resolved all Shooting Attacks
made by all of the weapons the unit making the Shooting
Attack has, the Reactive player makes a Shooting Attack
with the Reacting unit (including with any models that
have been reduced to 0 Wounds and before any Pinning
tests or Morale checks are taken) targeting only the unit
that triggered this Reaction
What’s this about Nick?
@@SNBattleReports My apologies for not referencing I should know better. In the video you were asking if you take the pinning check before or after the return fire. Removing models/ moral checks happen after the reaction is complete.
I have been very much enjoying your HH battle reports and you guys have really helped this community
Hey SN, lovely looking battle as ever. As a heads up for Rowan I think he’s been short changing his attacks with the twin lightning claws. Should be +2 attacks for having 2 claws so would be 6 each with Talent for Murder! P.137 of the Liber book :)
Why 6?
@@SNBattleReports having a pair of lightning claws (which I think Rowan said they had?) Is +2 attacks rather than +1 for two weapons. 2 base + 2 for paired claws +1 for charging + 1 for Bloody Murder. Edit - Bloody Murder against a pinned unit not Talent for Murder
@@MPSwift1990 yeah that’s why he was doing it right, right?
@@SNBattleReports I thought he gave himself 5 attacks on the charge at one point rather than 6 with the raptors, I may have missed something though!
@@MPSwift1990 hot damn you are right! I thought it was just the one extra attack! I'm getting a boat load of lightning claw Raptors now!
When you fired at the terminator squad with your interemptors, did u remember 2 of the heavy plasma flamers have torrent 9"? you should have been able to hit his entire squad twice almost with those 2 shots alone. Then add whatever the guys in front could hit also. so with the 21 you had, you should have at least another 12 from the 2 torrent shots...
Sure did James that’s why I got so many hits on them
@@SNBattleReports must have been off camera :)
I’ve already told Rowan on Insta but I’ll say it again on here! Sexiest Night Lord army I’ve seen 😍
🦇 ❤️
You're goddamn right
With the Deathwing Companions when they got into combat, does the Force Axe not strike at I1 like a power axe? Next, when attacking the Deathwing Companions, the enemy should be at -1 initiative because of the aegis. So if you are fighting with 2 praetors, your praetor should strike first. It should also make it easier for your Companions to kill the Assault Squad and Terminators. Their drawback is they cannot fight so you get 2 less dudes fighting. Also their weapons are Murderous Strike and Rending. So that means they inflict Instant Death on 6s for Calabinite Swords and 5's on the Terranic Great Sword. Companions are downright NASTY as they also get +1 to hit for being Deathwing too. Not sure but I also believe you cannot put wounds on your Praetor until the Companions are dead as they prevent him from taking wounds until the unit is completely gone - their upside is they prevent your opponent from sniping them out.
Yeah he forgot I1 but the companions only get the -1 initiative to the enemy if they put there shields down in the same turn
The Companions with the Lion get REALLY nasty when another Primarch tries to fight him. They drop their aegis and the Lion should have an edge and strike first. Same with any Praeters they are fighting. Those Knight Cenobium were so cool! I wanted to see them make contact with something though!
I was 100% sure I knew who was going to win but I was wrong. Very interesting to see.
For lingering effect templates, Just put a small marker down and lay the template over it when it matters. You don't have to lift models then.
That’s a great idea thanks
The Knights Cenobium are so gorgeous!
They are so cool
I’m currently building a Night Lords list and am very new to HH. I can’t find anywhere how these contekar were legally able to take the Spartan as dedicated transport though? Every time I try and build them in my list on BattleScribe the Spartan isn’t listed as available transport. Please can someone clarify this for me?
Heavy support buddy
stunning night lords army
🦇
Thanks! Gotta get all that lightning on there ⚡🦇
Beautiful army Rowan! Very nice painting.
Question- at 36:30 the Leviathan fires overwatch at the terminator squad, b ut didn't the Librarian cast the power to deny him Reactions for the turn? Please let me know if I'm missing something.
I think he casted something else will need to check I think he mentions it but then does something else
For the Lion!

Ave Dominus Nox!
We have come for some pesky Dark Angels!

"Don't roll bad"....

Cursed me real good there
Famous Last words
NL turn 5…….wtf. Pardo your dice are stupid good.
Was crazy!
Don’t Interemptors have 2 wounds each? I’m probably missing something but they seemed to drop pretty fast.
Just one wound each Dan.
No way, I need to check my book 🤦♂️ 😂
I’ve only been mistaken for about half a year! 😂😂😂
@@TheDanever haha man they would be even better!
AVE DOMINUS NOX
Enjoy Samuel
beautiful Dark Angels , great match against NL! And look at all those pretty crates! #CptPardodoescrates #bestpaintjobs #SN2023
Thanks again!
A question please: how can the Night Lords cause fear to an opponent that "knows no fear"? It appears to me that the Night Lords would be best fighting against everyone else besides the Astartes.
Beautiful armies gents, and a great battle report. 👍
They give Fear to Astartes
@@SNBattleReports that is potent. Thanks 🙂
Not a bad game but quite a few rules errors.
Thanks Alex. Would you mind letting us know which they were incase we missed them.
@@SNBattleReports Force axe is unwieldly, raptors are initiative 4 except when charging, spartan outnumbers dreadnoughts, tartaros praetor has a +5 invul.
@@Alex-yg5uh anything else? Those have been picked up and are mostly on the 🦇 side
@@SNBattleReports At 1:23:32 Dark Angels fail four saves in CC with their Companion Squad but only take three wounds off of the unit. Not sure why you discarded the wound that was already on the squad -? The extra wound would have had a profound effect on the remainder of the game as it was in the all-important fight around both warlords.
@@petercarlson8240 will check. I’m sure it wasn’t on purpose Peter lol
So you can not have a boarding shield and a two-handed weapon on your praetor. Ps great game and beautiful armys
Nope sadly not 😢
Where are you based guys? Is there a chance to play with you?
We are based in Gibraltar 🇬🇮
@@SNBattleReports Oh, it's definitely not unreal to get to Gibraltar from Poland)
Also not that it made any difference but Tartaros Praetors only have a 5+ invulnerable because they forgot to give them an Iron Halo so the save just comes from the armour itself, so both a Cataphractii and Artificer Armour Praetor have a 2+/4++ but a Tartaros Praetor has a 2+/5++, which as an EC player who has a beautiful praetor character in Tartaros really sucks.
Ah great catch! I was like "surely it must be better than 5++....right?". Apparently not
@@rowanforster naughty naughty 😮😮😮
@@Black_Blow_Fly in fairness I did initially say 5 up 😂
@@rowanforster 😂😂😂
Space wolves soon??
I wish we had an army! 😔
@@SNBattleReports well I'll let you know when I finish mine in 2-5 years lol
@@errata2412 😆
Dont think the dread can brace. They are fearless so no es bueno,
Don’t have to be fearless to no brace. Only thing fearless effects is Evade
@@SNBattleReports oh? Great thank you!
Aren't the Interemptors stubborn and should not take the leadership penalties?
Yes we pick it up straight after
Dark angels paraetor wargear is not legit. Boarding shield forbids using of two-handed melee weapon in assault phase such as terranic greatsword. Next time try paragon blade - AP always 2, 6+ murderous strike and not two-handed. Cost 5 more pts then terranic greatsword.
Yeah the shield was just there as it’s modeled with it doesn’t give him benefits as is invul save will always be better
@@SNBattleReports boarding shield for praetor give only one benefit - it gives the model heavy subtype, so unit, for example, if he joins cataphractii terminators they don't lose their armour save rerolls against template and blast weapons.
@@Your_Mad_Bro yep
Can we get a Word Bearers vs Blood Angels or Custodes 40k game in the future? That would be pretty sick
DA are simply the most powerful legion in the game.
You think? I think it’s Fists
@@SNBattleReports Why not both? :) It's same as 7th edition 40k - Loyalists are insane, Chaos is ... well... for playing "story" part of a game where they are getting their back kicked :)
Anyway, I love your reports SN, waiting for more! :)
I think a unit cant react if it is pinned right ?
That’s correct did any react when pinned?
@@SNBattleReports i think yes i see One tactical marine unit react and snap fire
@@andreasell1830 buy if you ready you don’t snap fire right? Will try and see thanks
Comments for the comment god
Thanks
Pardo cheats!!! Or not but he definitely stole it at the end lol
Always cheats!
@@SNBattleReports lol see I knew it
Heh the Dark Angels seem a bit OP with all the strong extra rules and equipment. Nice game tho
Yeah some units are great but very expensive lol
Night raptors proving how trash they are as usual
😂
One of the few things I actually hated watching on this match was my night lords being played by someone who lays the dice down ever so gently lick a princess instead of rolling them dice like a man with a strong army and determination!! Why roll like the dice would brake???
Man you need to be very sad to hate something like this 😂
Dark Angels player talking about "tactics" while spamming all the broken options? Yeah that checks out lol.
Lovely comment thanks lol
@@SNBattleReports lmao pardo, you're cursed with this kind of comment lately x) !
that was a great game, i enjoyed watching it !
@@theo35510 Thanks Leo! The internet is funny
spartan counts as 10 so it wounds on 2s when shooting T8 with S9 guns.
Yeah someone else said thanks!
so many rules wrong or forgotten
Would love the full list of all of them please seems it’s loads. Thanking you in advance
