Every game Jeremy 's involved in is a masterclass in movement and mobility. He has always shown how fundamental it is to master the movement phase.
it doesnt hurt to have fight 10 with each strike and the ents rolling 4 high in any combat either.
@@Jewus19 that's true. It was a massive gamble he had to make. Still, he did manage to lure the ent into a bottleneck and trap them, getting a lot more than their 3 dice to win the fight. It got to a 50/50, but that's the best that could be achieved against monster, with neither magic or high fight heroes of your own
@@Jewus19 I mean you are not wrong, but I don't think it is the way to look at the game. The question is if Dale missed out on anything important and made a mistake on the most important duel roll and that was imho the fight against treebeard. They had their dice maximized, double striked for safety and trapping. Yes in the roll of he was lucky, but that's just dice. If it went the other way round the ents would have won the game possibly. But the odds couldn't be manipulated much more for Dale as they already were. in theory the ents could have, but that would probably be hard to achieve though so I don't blame PJ.
Outstanding batrep once again by conquest creations. These 2h batrep content creators could learn a lot from Jacob’s efficiency. The whole batrep I was thinking “how on earth can Jeremy win this?”. Flabbergasted by the fact he engineered the combat to take place in the one part of the board in which he stood a chance. Bravo.
What an excellent game, some real amazing moves there. That Treebeard moment was devastating
Great game and awesome video 👏
Glad I’ve finally found time to watch this. Jeremy’s breakdown from the green dragon short made it sound very cool
Awesome to see that your making new videos, love all of your videos and I've only been Watching for 2 or 3 weeks. Awesome video mate. Can't wait to see some more epic battles
i finally caught up with your video releases. i found your channel a few days ago and i binge watched every video :) this brings back so many memories, i used to play middle earth sbg more than 15 years ago. you've got me thinking about getting back into it
Thanks for sharing Jacob, enjoyed watching it. Well done Jeremy and PJ. What a masterclass in strategy and positioning from Jeremy.
Love the paint jobs on both armies. Jeremy your Dale are top shelf mate.
Great game guys! Love the Ents!
Oof, rough combat with Treebeard. Hard to know from the camera angle, but I think a hurl from quickbeam was the play. If it had been angled to clip any of the dudes in combat with treebeard he would have been safe for that turn.
The camera doesn’t show it. But Jeremy put models to the rear of quick beam and no models in base contact in the direction of the treebeard combat. Jeremy also had priority. So if quickbeam heroic combatted into any models near the treebeard combat, he would have chosen the treebeard combat to go first. It was an absolute masterclass in movement from Jeremy.
@@Anonanonanon163 Nice, thought that might be the case, but hard to tell on camera 👍
I think if he heroic combats the turn before and throws treebeard and the other ent into the lines he could get off a hurl and really mess things up
Well fought! Thanks for sharing. Even without the LL bonus the list is overlooked for how dangerous it can be.
There was a mistake! Treebeard was not trapped, and he was tall enough to see the fence as open ground.
Treebeard could step back an inch and step on the fence.
Very enjoyable to watch as always! Jeremy is such an amazing player. I always enjoy watching him in this competitive style. Sadly the game was done for with that single fight.
I think there might be a mistake on the Dale List on the website. It appears that there are 2 banners on the army which would mean that the list would be over 500 points (536 I think). On the battlefield there was only one though.
Waiting for the next games!
Cheers!
Amazing, thank you so much!
Awesome stuff! Thanks
Good game to watch and oh felt so sorry for some unlucky dice rolling in the middle there, but thats the way the cookie crumbles i suppose!
Lovely Dale army as well by the way! :):)
Treebeard didn’t look that trapped?
Agreed. He was "trapped" because his base wouldn't fit flat due to the hedge......but since the hedge was below Treebeard's knees seems kinda iffy. I also don't like how you can trap an ent with 3 normal sized infantry positioned correctly. But them's the rules.
@@mr.bandito1635 for sure. The ents slow speed just means they always seem to be easy pickings fit traps. I think there should be a ‘trample’ roll. 4+ and they trample a trapping enemy or low object as they move away from a fight, preventing trapping.
best notification i got in weeks, Can not wait to watch it!!
SPOILERS::
1. When ents were fighting at the beginning, 1 ent vs 2 dale with traps. Is it worth it to barge into the two "flanking" instead of rending? 2 kill is more than 1 after all ;)
2. When treebeard died: Was quickbeen able to throw his opponent into the combat? did not see the angle well. He used two strikes but he could not kill anything when everyone is prone.
3. Again next turn BARGE into Brain or dain (the target, dont know his name)
4. Threeeard could use just a heroic defence.
5. Was he really trap tho? Couse this hedge is no barrier for him.
2. no he could not, see it just on replay.
A lot of question couse I always find yours battle reports as most competitive and informative. Love to watch them, cannot wait for the next fight!
Nice gameplay, and nice painted minies.
Amazing content!
Nice Br as always
i thought for a few secend that it was the old WC 2 soundtrack in the bakground ^^
The shadows on the wall at 15:14 look like ents! Haha!!
How was treebeard trapped? The hedge was well below his height
Great game!
Devo'd for PJ he seems like a top bloke and Fangorn lists are rare to see! However, Jeremy definitely earned his win and although it was a short battle rep boy was it a good one!
I think I like your Battle Reports the most, I do believe they are the best on CZcams, but I think I like Zorpazorp’s terrain better. I feel that’s fair though! Lol
Great match
Yuup, the all in that one player does in this match was probably the best bet, which is basically a coin flip. Lucky enough courage rolls went throw to give the quantity of dice needed to win... Or get coup de graced.
Not to mention overextending to allow the wrapping be possible.
Trap wins games! 😄
I like these tournaments. They show different tactics among various armies. Great stuff for a beginner! Thanks for sharing Jacob.
looks like meats back on the menu boys!
Woohoo!
awwww, i wanted to see ents smash it in the final :P
Love the Ents. But pure Ent lists doesn't work imo. You´ll be almost always surrounded hand have to basically relay on the dice.... :( BUT i still cheer for you!
It's the same with most monster list. Ents, however, have the added bonus of being immune to immobilize and compel. And, while Jeremy proved himself to be an amazing player, if that roll off against treebeard had gone the other way the game would have had a whole different outcome
Bro are you still planning on doing a video on fulgrim?
Amazing battle report (as ever, when Jeremy is involved)!
Keep them coming
Just a question (that would not have impacted the game): should not the Ents have been broken only when one model was left for them?
I think one Hobbit being alive still counts as a model, and them starting with 3 models on the board means they are not broken until there is only one left. Am I correct or missing something?
Again, this would not have impacted the game, just for clarity
I think its because there were 5 models starting on the board: 3x Ents and 2x hobbits, so when there was 1x Ent and 1x hobbit left they were broken. but if i am wrong let me know
at 17:00 cant treebeard back away into the fence ? because he is so big I think we can stand on terrain
You cannot place a model where the base does not lay flat on a terrain feature or the floor and also you only back away one inch, and the large base means one inch isn't enough for the model to clear the hedge.
@@thgsMASK since when? usually we always play that part of your base can also stand on Terrain
Ok correct me if I’m wrong but don’t ents have the ability to throw boulders?
they can but in order to do so they have to stand still in the movement phase
By my bark!
Who does those trees?
Crazy how strong all of the hobbit armies are
Thanks for the comment
If you think the hobbit is too good I would recommend checking out this video czcams.com/video/fq8Z_eoM7bE/video.html
Barge my friend....barge.
good game. Expected outcome. The optimistic commentary could not change the fact that this game was over as soon as the armies were chosen.
Really? Assassination against three monsters with might? I completely disagree, dale had to put the hero they had to protect on the front line to call a strike whereas the fangorn player did not need to. That alone is a huge advantage. Let alone the ability to barge, call combats etc.
