550 Tanith models! Bruhh, dude's a quarter of the way to representing the entire Tanith 1st in a 1:1 scale. That is awesome!
Tanith is an absolute gigachad!
I used to have that exact pfp as a kid omg
I've just started my ig journey with the tanith, gonna get so many guardsman
[STARES IN VERGHAST AND BELLADON]
The final duel is one of the most 40k things I've heard of. Massive armies are battling between the Imperium and Chaos. At the outskirts of the battle a lone dropship flies past enemy lines with a strikeforce of spacemarines and an inquisitor. The team drops into the back line, hit hard, suffer massive casualties, but in the end succeed in their mission through a duel to the death with the BBEG.
YES! Imperator Invictus! While that table was a slog, we made it and they would not stop the Emperor's devoted servants in their mission. Manufactorum was very fun and very cinematic. I'm so glad to get another look at everything else that was going on.
It was a true Imperial advance! Slow to start, but once the momentum was gained it was truly unstoppable
Tim just straight up manifesting whole events into reality now. I really like this super powers time line we're living in
I wonder if Marvel would be interested in making a film about "Guardboy" 😂
@@MordianGlory 😏
The final duel was truly epic! We need a book about the war for Thanatos!
By the Emperor! This was too awesome! So much so, I'm tempted to come all the way from New Zealand with my Craftworld Eldar to take part in the next one! That'd be too damned cool!
Wow that's high praise indeed, thank you
Sniper in the FUCKING CRANE. how focking beautiful! Man this has got to be the most real, the most beatiful and the most epic, fun warhammer video I have seen in my life and I have seen many, many hours of them. This one is the best yet, truly embodies that warhammer spirit!, this is art come to life.
lot of vindicates in this game at one point a necron overlord had 3 shoot him in one turn
For biomes/tables for next time, it'd be really cool to have something underground, sewers or caverns. Might be crazy complicated, but it'd be best of all if it connected to another table on the surface at certain points on the map, so you could have players move between adjacent tables, ducking underground and reemerging elsewhere...
I have thought about interconnected boards, but the issue you get is people have models on 2 different tables. That means lots of players moving around which increases the chances of people bumping into each other and their models, but also it means that you have people waiting on each other.
Best to have people assigned to a table and stick to it for the day, with some minor reassignment between day 1 and 2
@@MordianGlory Yeah ive come up against this logistical problem too. What you COULD do is include a subterranean connection that simply takes effect in between day one and two to see what gets to move boards to reinforce another table? Cool idea though!
This is the most glorious game of 40k I have ever seen!
If you do another on, I'm 100% in!
Tickets for next year already available!
elementgames.co.uk/event-tickets/apocalypse-2024-the-fate-of-thanatos-june-1stand2nd
Love to see it brother!
Thank you!
@@MordianGlory No problem Commissar, maybe I'll get a chance to participate in another of your events! Assuming you do more!
Genuinely the best event I have ever been to. The game was amazing, the people were lovely and THERE WAS FOOD!! There was so much hype leading up to it and I was genuinely a little nervous. But it was incredible.
Cannot wait for next year!
Your friendly Tyranid player who made Half loose his mind… and his tanks. :D
That's so nice of you to say! Your nids genuinely made the jungle board :)
Look forward to seeing you, and that new biotitan, next year
@@MordianGlory Oh, you can count on it! Im planning at least two Harridans to join that bio-Titan. Possibly a third if I can swing it.
@@Firedoomcaster OMG that sounds amazing! Best not tell Halfin, it might trigger his Shellshock
I'm not exaggerating when I say being a part of this was one of the most unique, interesting experiences I've ever had, and I'll remember it every time I put my culty bois on the table. Loved seeing the few pics I shared of the folks I met. Hope to run into y'all again some day. 👾👾👾
Thanks Bob! Thats such an incredibly nice thing to say!
Hey fellow three armed emperor worshipper (:
That Warhound Titan in the Jungle grid looked so cool
Thanks again for putting the event on Mordian, me and my Knights had a blast (even if we were stuck in the meat grinder that was the Manufactorum lol). Big hype for next year!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey, I was the mobile infantry guy. How did you do the nurgle knight slime stuff?
@@ScottTheBot07 Hey there, I think you’ve got me confused, I was running Imperial Knights, I can’t remember the name of the person who did the awesome looking Chaos Knights unfortunately.
@@cogboy3587 ah I have. My bad lol. Glad you enjoyed the battle of the manufactorum
So much fun, and massive kudos for how well organised the whole event was. The way each table had a different feel and how they all felt like part of one big story was super impressive, and you were doing great light touch tweaks to keep things interesting and moving forward.
Thank you! I took a lot if planning but I am glad it all went well and you enjoyed it
I need to attend the next one. This looks incredible!
Thank you! It was a ton of fun :)
Brother - you are a storyteller. I'm sure there is a fan fiction crusade hidden in that addled mind.
Thats very kind of you!
MOOOOORE!!!! >XD
This is child me's dream as well awesome to see all the inter play and redeploys to the other tables and stuff really fun global mechanics you cooked up it looks like!
I'm doing another event next year!
Absolutely stunning boards and models. Everything looks amazing. We recently had a huge 150k point game; and outside of the table I was playing at; most people were playing unpainted models. You’ve really taken things to the next level.
Thank you! We had a semi strict painting requirement which made sure most people turned up with painted models
34:33 how can we ignore the warhound titans in engagement range.
So sorry I couldn't make it this time around. I can't wait to watch the roundup.
No worries! Hope to see you at the next one
I haven't played 40k in over a decade but damn I wish I could play in this game. This is what a 40k event SHOULD be! As tempting as flying to the UK to play a 40k game would be I don't think yall want some punk ass Yank with no knowledge of the current system. Good luck on The Fate of Thanatos and I pray the Emperor's Will be done on that cursed planet.
You are 100% welcome! We had multiple people at the last one who learnt the rules on the day. These events are totally new player friendly 😊
this is, by and far, the coolest thing ever. being in a game like this absolutely belongs on my bucket list.
Come to the 2024 event!
24:14 that is how warhounds greet each other
Just a friendly kiss on the cheek of each titan 😅
What a wounderfull, wounderfull event. It wish I could have been there. But allas some other time.
Hope to see you at the next one
@@MordianGlory I will be at the fate of Thanatos with both of my titans.
Looks impressive. You need truly big tables to pull it off. A good idea is to use U-shaped tables (like it was shown in some pics) so that even a normal sized player can move models around in the middle of the board otherwise the minimum height requirement for an event player would be seven feet. :)
Big tables are the best! a
And yeah the U shaped table was good, made it easy to get to the models. Will make sure to have another 1 or 2 of those next year :)
This may be the best video you've ever made.
Would love to show up to an event like this, but im a broke american in rural texas. Kind of shame; one of my biggest ..not problems, but things i wished were different in 40k, is that since each game is in isolation, theirs no real consideration for a grander campaign. Leaving early to preserve your units is never worth it over risking it for a biscuit. Making sure certain characters survive or just buying anther round so that the other boards have anther turn of air superiority. This is no bigger picture for you to fight for. I love the idea of a massive group event like this.
Also Idea for the next one. Make one table a battle barge, One part of the board has drop pods, anther macro batteries, and a third the reactor. As long as the guns are still up they can bombard a section of anther board. drop pods can freely reinforce with any units present in reserve, maybe even throw in the teleportarium for terminators in that same section. Invaders can swarm the ship and gain control of any one compartment, use it for themselves... or they can just overload the reactor and everybody has like 3 turns to evac before it blows.
Maybe anther board has orbital defense batteries on the ground that can fire on it at the risk of hitting the compartment with their own boarding party in it. Bonus points if you use the Boarding patrol rules and terrain. No Tanks or large vehicles, just infantry blindly fighting for each and every corridor.
A boarding Actions map would be really cool! Have it represent a space station in orbit or something, thank you for the idea
that's a really cool idea
'One Shooting Phase here is 7 years on earth'
WOW! 300,000 points, how many points worth of an army do you need to participate.
Guideline is 5k points, but there is no minimum or maximum per player. If you want to bring more thats fine but you only get an hour for each turn. If you bring less then we have a respawn mechanic so you don't get knocked out early :)
Shout out to the Rhinos with flashing police lights and the mediaeval rough riders :D
THOSE GUARD VEHICLES IN 36:00 HAVE SIRENS ON THEM THATS SO COOL Aaaaa
This was an absolute blast to watch!! I love the lore and how you set this all up I can't wait to see how it continues in the next event!!
This was one of the best event recaps I've ever listened to! Mordian Glory you are an absolute legend and I can't wait to hear about the follow to this campaign!
WOW! Fantastic! I couldn't stop pausing and zooming in all over the place. Great narration too.😊
Man. This makes me sad that there have not been any narrative events in my area as far as I know.
We used to do something like this on a much smaller scale back in 4th edition. We were teenagers, so we only had 2000pts a piece, but we would narratively plan out our games which were always 3 way battles.
These are the video lengths I like to see lol
Very awesome report! Love to see all the models and happy players. Thanks for sharing the narrative with us.
Glad you enjoyed it!
as a DnD guy, this is very impressive....
As someone who has never played 40k but i have started my army (Salamanders) this was probably the coolest thing ive seen in regards to the table top gaming! If only you were in the US, id love to find a way to contribute
Man that’s awesome. What a great way to play. There are a lot of super creative armies in there as well. The whole thing is epic.
I would love to do something like this with my Vostroyans
this is awesome! glad a cc did an event like this, you did a great job it sounds like
there is so much plastic on the table that if you had turned it into money, you could swim at it like Scrooge McDuck
The GREATEST gaming event I have ever taken part in. Mordian Glory ran a wonderful event, and I cannot wait to do it all over again next year. THANK YOU MORDIAN GLORY!
Your too kind sir! Thank you!
Biome ideas:
1) The Tryanids have cut out the middle man and infested the still living trees. Mutated alien trees that can be made to spawn infantry type 'nids and digestive fluid filled swamps growing out of old trench lines from all the imperials digging in for their last stand when their armour was called away. Deep in this horrific jungle sits the growing body of a hiveship.
2) The Imperials are keen to seize orbital control. The Spaceport is the site of this battle! Large open areas interspaced with bunkers and outbuildings, a large facility in the center of the map, with 6 imperial transports already on the field. These transports are completely STUFFED with ammo, and explode big time if killed. The center structures also contain surface to space cannons that could shoot down the ships in orbit if seized.
I Love the addition of the narrative victory. As mainly a d&d player, this video got me invested and hyped for the next event and the end was just the cherry on top. Great stuff, earned a sub :)
This is so epic. You should work on an enormous table to better fit these behemoth armies. Keep up the good work
Fuck, this sounds like alot of fun. This has my wheels turning..
You needed a catachan platoon on the jungle board. Use all those old-school booby traps and ambush rules. Sending in slymarbo into the back lines.
A fantastic piece of work. An enjoyment to watch.
Glad you enjoyed it ❤
Man that was awesome love it great job
This was a truly epic tale of a legendary battle! That's one of the things I loved most about 40K was the back story! Including some story with the battle made it that much more fun for me! And having repercussions for wins and losses deepens the story! The final faceoff between the Judicar and the Patriarch was the crown of this amazing battle! Well done to all involved!
dude i love how you did this this was awesome wish i couldve been there to help! so awesome
The idea of doing something like this got me into 40k! Ive always wanted to run a dedicated Air-effort, answering sorties from other players on a manuver-scale
The vehicules with leds are so fucking good locking ! amazing game
This is really cool to see. I’ve watched some footage of Apocalypse games and yeah it often looks like just a long ass table with very little depth.
wait! i know those Black templars!!!
That whole room is full of father-havers. You can tell. All of them are chads.
Was a fantastic event! Thanks for running it Mordian!
Thank you for coming! Was great to meet you face to face
Wow, awesome, play this kind of matchs are much more interesting that the clasic "competitive match with tournament table".
Glad you liked it!
I found this game to be much more satisfying because it felt and looked like an actual battle!
You have me intrigued to start building out my own world campaign
This is awesome. Would love to see more events like this. The massive armies, the cards, the bonuses for taking certain points, the random map events, the reinforcements, its all awesome. Its just breaks my heart "dat da boyz dont get no krumpin" haha idea for the next time you do one of these, a random orc tribe on the planet attacks both players on the map halfway through the battle when both players are starting to commit troops to attacking each other.

I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away
And I'll survive, paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud, cold-blooded fake
I will shut the world away
Open your eyes
🎵
This is such a heartwarming event, it’s awesome to see everyone having a fantastic time together to play such a large scale game of 40K! Hope to seeing next year being even bigger and more exciting!!! 🫡🤍
Sounds like a really fun event. Just recently started building up my first 40k army and I am very tempted to join in next year.
Join us! It's a totally new player friendly event. Veterans, noobs all are welcome :)
Wow this was amazing to watch. Would love to make a super detailed game board at these scales.... one inspired by the new Space marine II 2nd mission landscape with orbital guns & hollow jungle mountins would be a masterpiece worthy of this sort of apocalypse gameplay.
Thank you!
Looks awesome!
It was!
This was an amazing video. One day, I'd love to fly up there with my army and participate. Hopefully it becomes a yearly tradition. :D
Absolutely stunning work, really really impressive event! I did appreciate the narrative focus in such a large game, since I feel like narrative play is where 40k shines the most.
Just out of curiosity, have you ever considered experimenting with an event that combined multiple rulesets? For example, an Apocalypse match where modifiers or rules in the larger battle mats is determined by the outcome of Kill Team deployments that are happening concurrently.
I am looking at having 40k and Battle Fleet Gothic at the next one. Have the BFG game determine the outcome of the Orbital War
Im amazed woow dam i hope yall had fun this is amazing
It was abit of a mindfuck seeing this pop up on my feed and knowing I probably visited the shop while this was happening
That looks like it was an absolute blast. If only the next event was a bit later in the year, I'd be able to attend.
"The Trees Are Speaking Tyranid"... Why is this so funny?
Now that is how you do it......thats what the the potential for 40k should be
Would have been cool to show footage of the models you were talking about at the moment you were talking about them in the video - i really enjoyed this for some reason despite not being hugely into 40k and so not knowing what a judicar looks like!
This is maybe the sickest thing ever
The Angel's of Death. ending it was perfect
This is fantastic. And as a D&D player I love the idea of GMing a huge game like this. Am local with my World Eaters should the opportunity ever come up again 🤘
I love the rivalry between the Chem-Dogs and the Praetorians
It was awsome matt the chem dogs guy is a really cool dude,
A chem dog guardsmen actually managed to take the last wound of karn, but "it still only counts as one"
@@GeltBalthazar. nice, got him with the shiv! Chem-dogs are probably my favourite regiment so it does me good to see them in the wild so to speak and in such numbers
All those unique looking guardsmen look so good! 🥳
Congrats yall. We have just seen $1,000,000 or more of plastic and paint roll dice
24:14 Beautiful Warhounds
Judicar v Patriarch is why sometimes RAW gets in the way of fun. Just go with the rule of cool
Imagine owning a Reaver Titan, transporting it to an event, placing it on the table thinking "finally, it's happening! I get to actually use it!". Then. All of a sudden. It dies before you even get to do anything 😂
Always love a good apocalypse game.
Great job! If you do it next year, hope I can make it!
Tickets for next year already available!

@@MordianGlory Fantastic!
@Mordian Glory I got an idea for a map which should be a desert to signify the tyranids eating up all the biomass
A great end to an awesome event. Respect to everyone
We shall hold the liiiine
the first few minutes exactly describe whats missing in all these rounds yeah xD the scaling is so important!! GO ON LIKE THIS!! also a invasion takes months, or years. so i think we should struggl at least a day for our fun
Thing I used to do with large 10-20k games was make special objective rules like a chaos world where terrain constantly moves and causes dangerous terrain checks for anyone it landed on, you found interesting things that made the map itself able to help kill off a few dozen models or tanks, random traps or mine fields for defenders and ambush tokens for attackers letting them deploy on the opponents side of the board or as if they had infiltrators rules for infantry and light vehicles.
You can't really play anything silly like take and hold when you have thousands of mini's on the board.
Impressive stuff! How many infantry were there on both sides?
Too many to count, there was well over a thousand on the Jungle board alone, and that was one of the smaller boards!
@@MordianGlory were any army or whole side snaps taken at all? Keen to see!
if it was Epic Scale it would have been planetary assault
Baneblades with 4 cupolas make me smile.
I would adore to join into an event like this. But not something i can do from across the pond.
I'm in the middle of painting my first ever unit (Skitarii rangers, I feel like I picked a hard-to-paint army to like haha). I can dream of playing in a war this big with my own army one day!
Damn B, my biggest is around 22,000-24,000 points. It was nuts. Also we had a multitable set-up and a center objective, but deployed in a fun layout.
This is so cool
Wish I could come to the next one, but the work schedule and financial situation doesn't allow me to travel to England right now. However as a Space Wolf and Custodes player myself I will be behind the Imperial team in spirit if not in person.
“The legendary great unclean one”, *proceeds to put up a picture of a biotitan*

I want todo a campaign like this for AoS XD
