The tree moves out of the shot later in the video. We apologize about the tree. Also, Kroot! More Kroot for the counter!
Careful, there are new playonbots running around telling people they won, these are not real
Yeah I got hit with one also
If Kroot is good, more Kroot must be better. 😂
@@robherbst8875 of course more chicken is better than fish.
Just figured out how the Tau hired the race. They re-Krooted them.
I heard they bribed them with croutons
Inquisitor i would like to report a sighting of Heresy
You win
Perfect comment. No notes
boooooo
My favorite Kroot fact is learning that the Catachans love of bandanas and hating being ordered around is genetic
Probably my favorite 40k lore tidbit
to such an extend that the tau told the kroot to stop eating them because they became so annoying to work with
i liked when kroot nick said "its krootin time" and then proceeded to kroot over everything
I accidentally restarted the video and used the "Kroot Counter" to get back to where I was 😂
Dude Tycho’s army consists of some of the most beautiful chaos sculpts I’ve ever seen on a tabletop that is crazy.
What are those gnarly-looking bikes from?
@@nunyabidniss2617a 3rd party chaos models called ravaged star! They are very beautiful and super cheap! You can get an entire army for only like 150$
@@nunyabidniss2617 I think they're ravaged star from miniwargaming
Can we just appreciate whoever chose the soundtrack for this episode? I mean wow, it just enhanced this from a battle report to a cinematic masterpiece.
The violin goes so hard
Thank you!
@@benwaardenburg woah are you one of the people behind the scenes? Where do you find the music and effects for these videos? I’d love to do some stuff like this and y’all always do an amazing job!
Edit: Apparently I did not account for people reading the comments before watching the video, so I'm going to push my apparently very spoilery comment down so that you have to click "Read More" to see it rather than delete it. Apologies to those who have apparently been spoiled by someone commenting on a video after they watched it and commenting on the content of said video.
For as much as the Kroot seemed to be getting mulched, the fact that Nick still could have won on points at the end says a lot about the game. Being able to keep bringing back wiped units to essentially redeploy where needed was really what made this detachment tick it seems.
As with a few armies in 10th edition though they shouldn't be competitive simply by spamming one particular trick or stratagem. That is always poor game design. Shame as they are awesome otherwise.
I feel like if they didn't have reinforcement strats, they will be a joke playing them against them with any army since Kroot are both fragile like the Tau but can't compensate with good shooting.
@@stuartfields9177I think the detachment becomes a lot more interesting when you think of it being more like taking 1000-1200 points of Kroot and then you take the rest as Tau to fill the gaps and give you some real guns. Then you kinda get the best of both worlds.
@@andrewcrawford8306 My thoughts exactly. I was very tempted to start a Tau army that would basically be two Storm surges and the rest would be Kroot. Paint the storm surges up to look like they had been recovered from a swamp or something and repurposed by the Kroot.
@@stuartfields9177 giant ghille suits
I think that Farstalkers would be a good thing to add to the current list, as they have Lethal Hits and Precision against one unit from the enemy army. That unit combined with either a War Shaper or a Trail Shaper would probably be really good
I’m thinking so too! I’ve got a unit of them to paint up!
@@PlayOnTabletop cool!
Man, I'm going to have to pick some more of their models up quick before they're unavailable for Kill Team like what happened with the arbites
I entered Auspex's March giveaway for this box and preordered it at my local store, and when Nick said "they look like a hoard army" in the codex review video, naturally I was stoked to see the incoming BatRep. And after the Kroot Kitbashing profiled on this page, I've been rumbling through my bits boxes and sprues
consider spruets
Hmm... the ultimate risk in 40k: Does one boop the Kroot snoot?
Vulkan: I would like to pet this creature
Yes
The rise of Kroot Nick?
So many nicks lol
Truly the darkest timeline
so many variants. this will be the end of the nickverse.
No... kroot aren't good hahahaha
Kroot Army is cool, but I feel like they do need a Hammerhead and/or Skyray, or maybe a squad of Broadsides, sitting in the back to give them some of the heavy-weapon oomph that they lack.
Now, Tau has a close combat option. Good on you, TauNick, Tycho, the psycho always entertaining to watch.
A close combat option that because of GW doesn't interact with most of other detachment strategems and doesn't benefit from the army rule though. The Kroot Detachment is something if you want an army that can actually do stuff in more than one phase though. This match though did point out what the theory crafters thought, that Kroot really need a pair of Tau heavies to deal with big targets.
I have no idea what the daemon prince model is but its absolutely incredible. Two stunningly beautiful armies with great paint jobs. Amazing ravaged star proxies too, Minwargaming Dave would be so proud.
It's Creature Caster's Suzerain of Desire and they have some gorgeous models.
the kroot counter is hilarious, keep up the good work
Damn, that is a nice looking table. The game looked like what would happen if a fully armed chaos marine army met Gungans. Brutal.
i was actually laughing the entire time the kroot counter was up, you should have kept that up the entire time!

While Kroot are obviously the focus here, I just want to add that I recently started playing CSM using a Horus Heresy model based army and my god are they fun! I really love the dark pacts rule and the flexibility of models/loadouts makes them so fun to create. Also Abaddon is just so nasty - but I love watching CSM get played.
Always like seeing people super enthusiastic about thier armies. Get a feeling Nick is really about Kroot.
Nick forgot SO many of the +1 to hits against targets under starting strength and he still did really well.
I did. It was hard to remember all the new rules!
@@PlayOnTabletop Yeah, I feel ya, I kept forgetting Sustained hits on my Rampagers in my first game. I'm loving the new rules though, so much more I can do with my Kroot army now. It's going to be a great edition.
I can commit at least one all Kroot army to the Gamescon narrative event in June. ;) See you then.
Tycho: You don't wanna do that.
Nick: Why not?
Tycho: Because then you'll kill my guys and I'll be very sad.
Nick: Evil smile
Tycho is on an incredible winning streak right now
I'm glad they fixed the dice box camera on Nick's first turn, it was bothering my brain having the dice displayed at an angle so you could see the faces other than the top face. 😅
It wasn’t something we wanted to happen either, the camera for the dice box didn’t record for the first half of turn one so we had to make do.
I love the close look at armies before it started. That demon prince is amazing. Love your guys' stuff, high quality and love the 45 minute videos. Only one critique. The dice box camera was awkward!! Otherwise, thank you for another great video!
I like Kroot very much and always wanted to see more of them, being separate army. Dream came true :D
Kroot finally getting the time to shine for their loyalty to the greater good 😁
Thank you again proving again that this is the BEST 40K format PERIOD.
Is that Slaneesh daemon prince a custom model? I've never seen it before.
It is a miniature from Creature Caster
@@PlayOnTabletop dope thanks
You guys got me into the hobby love everything you do, thank you all very much.
kroot counter was a great idea
Coming from a tau/kroot fan... That game was rough! They seem to be going for a squishy hoard army but without any tanky units or really powerful shooting/melee! Without maybe a greater gnarlock or a squad of lesser ones, I'm pretty sure the kroot will be relegated to a flashy and fun army with no competitive umpf. Stuck as the wall of bodies to add onto a "regular" tau fighting force.
BUT, as a force you add onto an existing one, I think these guys have some AMAZING potential! Always fun to see the 2 most charismatic members of PlayOn having a good tussle. GO TYKO THE UNBREAKABLE! and Nicky the Risky! or maybe Nick the Bomb?
love that y’all did this! i have a log. way to go before i can run a full kroot army but it’s def gonna be on my list
I enjoy the mid-game realisation this was the game Nick was probably talking about in the Tau codex video where he reinforced 70 kroot.
ahh the Kroot duped into being fodder for the Tau' from the beginning.
Love watching both Nick and Tycho play! Fun game to watch guys
Fantastic game Nick and Tycho! Wow! Swap out for some broadsides, hammer head and/or crisis suits, to add some much needed high powered guns and this could be extremely competitive. Great game!
That Beat of Nurgle is so killer! I love that paint job
That Demon prince looks sick
What a great game, and really down to the wire! In the end, a victory for chaos, which makes me happy - also really liked the melee visual effects
That table is awesome! Good to see the Kroot in action. Some great new Kroot sculpts. ...Kroot
Nick is always just so much fun, i love watching him.
I picked up that Creater Caster model with the lovers! I can't wait to paint!
I’m glad you guys just have fun. Never seen an episode where someone’s butthurt you love to see it
That's alot of kroot
Absolutely wonderfulm terrain and board in this game, really enjoyed seeing it.
Love seeing the Mantic terrain in play, the boxy sections are really practical for gaming purposes.
Tycho is a genuine joy to watch every damn time!
beast of nurgle got the zoomies
Let’s go Kroot!
Thank you Ben, for the Kroot total in the credits, I needed to know 😂
Great repport as always! Those Kroot (+1 Kroot counter) could use some weight under their bases.
I really want to see Kroot fighting Genestealers now, two regenrating swarms with a lot of tactical BS to throw at each other.
I'm excited for this.
I still wanna see someone bring a bunch of Chaos Havocs to a match.
That's a crazy awesome Daemon Prince.
Thanks for the video
16:31 had me laugh so hard
Very fun video, love the kroot army.
Love the Koots' bright plumage.
The tree is driving me crazy 😅 but otherwise fantastic job! Loved seeing the Veil Touched minis again. They are gorgeous sculpts and the Play On painting standard makes them incredible to look at.
Ah, the tree problem got solved after a few minutes. Woohoo!
I like the Kingdon Death die appearance.
I feel like it really hurts the kroot that they dont get the army rule. To have an army rule that basically doesn't work with one of the detachments at all feels a little bad. Let alone that the T'au already have fewer detachments than the rest of the released codexes.
It looked like Tycho got a haircut half way through!! Haha!! KROOOOOTTT!!!
That's a really cool board!
Anyone else think that when Nick rolled snake eyes for the Kroot shotgun, both barrels explode and kill the kroot, like Elmer Fudd in the old cartoons? Lol. All joking aside, gg to both Tycho and Nick. Very fun game to watch.
so this is for Mubin for a fun combo i found with the Thousand Sons Scarab Occult Terminators. so, first i pick Sustained hits 1 for all psychic weapons for my detachment ability. then i get my Scarab Occult Terminators 12" of one of your units i just want dead. Inferno-Combi Bolters have 2 shots each with Rapid Fire 2 and a range of 24", Rapid Fire 2 triggers cause that enemy unit is within half the range of the Inferno-Combi Bolters. so instead of 16 shots that 32 shots. then i spend a CP on a strategem on one that gives my ranged weapons psychic and strength 5. so that means the Inferno Combi-Bolters have sustained hits. then my Sorcerer in Terminator Armour picks that unit for his ability, so i re-rolls 1s to hit! then my Sorcerer in Terminator Armour has his other ability on the unit, Lethal hits! so that means thats 32 shots, Sustained Hits 1 (i get an extra hit on 6s) and Lethal Hits (means for each 6, that hit auto wounds) with re-rolling 1s! THEN I CAST THE RITUAL TO MAKE THAT UNIT NOT ABLE TO MAKE SAVING THROWS! THEN IF MY SCARAB OCCULT TERMINATORS ARE WITHIN 6" OF MAGNUS THEY ADD 1 TO HITS AND WOUNDS! THAT IS 32 SHOTS, HITTING ON 2s, LETHAL HITS, SUSTAINED HITS 1, AND +1 TO WOUNDS THAT NO ONE CAN SAVE!
The Kroot are just so cool. Super pleased to see them on the board.
Wow, Tycho has such a beautifully painted army
That Demon Prince tho.... gorgeous!
"the biker's down, wa wi wa wow" I didn't know JT is a poet.
Bruh, before I go in "SPOILERS "......
Nick you need to work on your roll arm my guy. I feel you could've put a hurt on the Chaos if some rolls played out correctly. With that being said I'm in luv with Kroot their so cool and I wanna see what they do if their assisted with some Crisis Suits. Like a Suit goes in puts damage in and Kroot come in out of the smoke and over welm the target. Or the Kroot do their damage and Suits drop in to make the save. The ideas I have from this video. I can't wait for more. I hope other army's get something now and not just the Space Marines cause they got everything at this point. Then again, I'm new to all of this and just learning from these videos. Awesome work guys as usual.
Where can I find that Slaneesh deamon prince? It looks incredible!
I wanna see more all-kroot battles in the future
A very fun game, and an absolutely beautiful board!
11:23 Nick revealing his true power as a kung fu master before using a stratagem.
the dreaded palm tree of doom hiding the dices
Chaos indeed is crafty
Great game that came down to the last roll… unbelievable.
30:55 you guys are hilarious
That tree blocking the rolls, barely, saw any of them.
I hope some madlads take the Kroot to tournaments so CA can buff them when their winrate sits at 20%^^.
I love this map. I want to live on this planet. LOL
might Just be me but i didnt think the armies really popped on the table. Great paint on both sides but the darkness of the designs and the new models were really showcased when the 2 armies met.
It seems the kroot are pretty strong buy I feel they are a glass hammer. They are pretty neat over all! But I love me some chaos!
Go forth Kroot! To battle!
My two favourite players playing a new and weird game, I love it🎉
The daemonprince is straight fire
The Kroots look so fun to play and i think that having a few Tau heavy hiting units would make them a nightmare to play against
I feel like the dice tray cam is a bit off in this BR
Ignore me it was fixed.
fun to watch
Nice haircut Tycho! 28:29
That Word Bearers army is gorgeous
those plague bearers look SICK
an all Kroot army? Finally, a Tau army i'd be willing to play!
Love it :)
Kroot Nick has put on some timber
Those plague bearers are sick. Are they proxied from a GW kit?
Brutal game!
All kroot, no brakes!
