- In this 650 point battle report we have my Army of Thror going up against Sean's Dale army. Its a super fun match up that is a super close game.

The paint job on the Dale capes is *chefs kisses*
Nice now we will have more veteran player games with Sean.
Great to see the big man himself repping the NoobNation
Fantastic batrep Jacob! You might just convince me to start Army of Thror after all.
The new audio is fantastic. Excellent work! No echoes and everything is crystal clear!
Thanks for the comment, 100% do it! They are so fun to play, every time i get them on the table i have a blast with them
Wonderful game ! Had to worry about Sean luck there, almost no dice would ever go in his side... Be brave, you're not alone ! remember me of my last tournament in Belgium x)
"So you're going to see this face for a bit" UGH :
Great batrep, every time I see you upload a new one it brings a big smile on my face
About the windlances deployment: shouldn’t they be deployed first 6 inches from the player board because they are siege weapons?
Everywhere I look, I still see his face...

I just can't get him out of my mind
Always an interesting game when it could come to a Courage test!
Thank you for the Batrep!
I'm happy I found your channel. Me and my brother are LOTR fans and loved the models since they first came out with the little magazine. It's been about 20 years and planning a comeback :D
@18:30 I think balin would have benefited from defending a barrier with that doorway
Audio is much better now! Those new mics are working great :)
Thanks for the comment, I am glad that it was noticed straight away!
I'm a big fan of Army of Thror, I plan to take them to the Melbourne SBG Cup in a couple months. Turns out, D7+ is really hard to deal with at low points levels!
Great Batrep, you've been getting lots of these out lately and they are amazing, thanks. Close Batrep, how many points would Sean have won by if it had finished 1-2 turns before? Welcome back Sean.
Thanks for the comment, the goal is 52 videos in 2024! If it had finished the turn before it would have been 5-7 in favor of Dale
Great game, always love trying to lose the fight to win the game.
That was awesome and loving having Sean back you guys have epic games
Good fluffy batrep of Erebor renegotiating their trade agreement with Dale :)
This was really nice to watch. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the comment, I must say this is a fun way to negotiate trade!
My goodness what a game! What I find interesting about MESBG is that often, the final score doesn't really convey how close the game was.
In a lot of games, if you tell someone you lost 3 to 8, it would sound a lot more like a tough loss. But this, literally came down to the last turn, and games like that are so much fun to play and even watch.
Awesome batts report! Army of Thror is my favorite army in the game too! I play them as more of a horde myself though since we don’t use the veto system and sometimes you just need march or the extra models for board control.
March is trashhhhhhhhhhh
-Sean
I tend to agree and usually spend the might on better things. Seize the prize is tough with move 5 though.
Thanks for the comment, I am planning on adding some dwarves with spear and shield to the army but I love playing it super elite. The heroes are just so fun to use!
Great army choices and great report
Hate to see Sean having the standard Rabtastic dice experience. 😂
Loved it!
Great video, Jacob 👏 I love these Battle Reports, I learn a lot 🙏 I bought a windlace to start a Dale army and I thought it was good, but now I have doubts 😅 is there any way to use it well? Ahahaha
I'm very much looking forward to the new Kickstarter project 😀
Such a nice board! Good stuff lads
Awesome game, awesome terrain guys
Favourite day of the week, Conquest Creations day!!
Thanks mate! We are aiming to hit a video every single week of 2024 or at least have 52 videos this year
Nice game and appreciate the sportsmanship of you guys voicing the rationale behind decisions. Army of thror is the coolest army despite its paltry troop variety 💪🏻
Thanks for the comment, We don't need variety when we have one of the coolest options with the GrimHammers!
13:05 "sir Gizza" - when you really know you are watching an Australian battle report 😂
Bro is prolific with the content! Keep it up! 😎
The goal is 52 videos released in 2024!
@@ConquestCreations 😳😎
18:14 Curious how the terrain is played here. We Durak Deep terrain in our community. Normally, we’d play the model in the doorway is in a defended position.
The attacks who won the fight would need to roll In The Ways for their strikes.
As the creator of the terrain, was that the intention or are we playing that wrong?
I also noticed that.
Also, shouldn’t the opponents attack only one at a time?
@@wyndhamrobertson5384 If it’s not considered a defended position, then they did it perfectly fine.
For me, I’m just trying to understand if it’s defended or not.
Who even paints that good!!! Theyre brilliantly painted!!!!
Sean's Dale is absolutely amazing!
That battle went down to the wire!
Thanks for the comment, This one was awesome!
Question!!
Windlance can only go into LL dale? Not dale that allies with thror?
(Aside from girion using it?)
It got faq, you can use it freely now, not that you should. It's terrible.
LETS GOOO :D
Sound quality is great. Keep improving because the results are there already!
Thanks for the comment! I am glad it got noticed. The goal is to make a small improvement with every single video
Great battle report !
Though I would like watching 800 points ones.
Recently I have been playing a lot of smaller points games. I haven't played an 800 point game in ages! One of our upcoming Battle reports is going to be a massive one and after that I might have a look at a 750-800 point game
@@ConquestCreations thank you for your answer.
I look forward to watch the futur battle reps ! Keep the quality work going !
The Girion model is outstanding, where did you get it from?
My mate Albert from 'micro forge minis' converted it up for me
-Sean
Good job sean! Nice of you to give your opponent a handicap by bringing two windlances!
Fun fact, Sean misheard me when I said we are playing 650 and he brought 750 points of Dale. Given that he had two wind lances it ended up being equivalent to 600 points hahaha
Windlance in Dale must be top contender for being the most terrible unit in the game, especially because of the cost. Even if Sean hadn't charged round 2, he would get one more round of shooting. Where he probably would only score a dead soldier for the dwarves.
I personally think that revamping it into a normal crossbow (so no half movement) with volley fire would make it more effective (less bad), whereas it has about 50% chance of wounding one high value per turn.
Could Sean have elected to not make way in the second last fight with Dwalin thereby forcing Jacob to double strikes?
Thanks for the question, you can choose not to make way (When you model who isn't engaged in the fight moves out of the way), but you must move back 1" if possible with the model who lost the fight. In this case Sean's model could move back so wouldn't be trapped.
@@ConquestCreationsah I see! From the camera angle it appeared that he didn’t have an escape route! Well played!
Nice light
What the fk was that wound roll. #justicefordale
Play Thror and just starting Dale. Went for a blue and orange dream too. Yours are just much better painted lol.
Thanks for the comment, Sean's army is incredible. He spent several hours per miniature on it!
@ConquestCreations it shows. I'm more of a contrast paint 30 mins max per model lol.
Low Model Count Move 5 army... bro i would just not engage that terrifying block of dwarves😂
That would make for a really engaging and enjoyable game for people to watch 😂😂😂
-Sean
True. But then again, why go for a shooty list if you are not gonna leverage it?
Also don't listen to me despite mostly playing rather shooty/movable lists I often commit early so both players can have a game. It's my opponent, not my enemy, we are here to have fun.😂
@@nickahlbach5064 cause it looks cool on camera.
I leave my serious and well thought out lists, strategies and what not for tournaments and competitive batreps in favour for rule of cool.
-Sean
Fighting>shooting. Throwing weapons go brrr
Couldn't agree more!
It’s fun, and you’re friends, but rerolling the dwarf 6 on the banner in Turn 8 feels disingenuous although it’s rules as written.
First!!!
Really unfortunate about the “gameyness” of the scenario - not to spoil anything but actively trying to lose fights and get your own units killed seems… off. Oh well though, I guess that’s the scenario. Good batrep regardless.
