2nd Edition 40k: Blood Angels VS Black Legion 

*THIS* is Warhammer 40,000. I love it.

Blood Angels. The Angels of blood.

It never ends well for the Chaos commander when Sindri is in on the battlefield 😁

Oooh, OG Chaos Gate music. Excellent choice.

“HORUS? IS THAT YOU?!!” “Please, Horus was my dad. I’m just Abaddon” “Oh my mistake sir!”

Best battle reports on RU-vid hands down. Also after watching Matthew’s video about Abbadon I was thinking “wow that armour save is ridiculous he’d never die in game” unfortunately I did not consider the possibility of “land speeded multi melta go brrrrr”

Death Company Marine: "Foul scions of Horus! The great traitor! The arch-fiend!" Black Legion Marine: "Finally, something we agree on."

No matter which side loses, we all win. Really looking forward to this.

Nothing hits harder than the Chaos Gate soundtrack and I will die on that hill.

a battle report for a classic version of the game and the video is shot well and takes less than an hour? Daaaaaaaaaaaamn Great content, my childhood nostalgia is deeply invested

I wasn't even born when 2nd ed existed and didn't even know about Warhammer 40k until 7th ed but I honestly love these battle reports so much!

Old chaos models look so damn good! The perfect blend of cool and ridiculous that 40k is best at.

Now this is a battle report. Keep them coming guys

I thought I recognized that amazingly painted Abaddon. Miniscape is one of my favorite RU-vid channels, if you've never checked him out and love 2nd edition give his channel a look.

Oh yes, wonderful. Feel like im a kid again playing on mums dining table. What fantastic characterful sculpts!

Love this narrative style and presentation. Way better than the boring e-sports livestream format a lot of battle reports seem to be nowadays.

This was when, if you brought down Chaos Terminators everyone cacks themselves

I love seeing retro minis, brings back memories of seeing them in a display at my local hobby shop.

Greetings and Salutations! This is just too lovely! I actually own most of the figures (on the BA side at least). This is quinessentially my 40k. Thank you so much! The models, the terrain, the editing and the narrative is fantastic. I hope much more is forthcoming. All the best to both of you, Billi.

I’m super excited to see some old Chaos Marines! And also just oldhammer rep in general

LOVE the use of the classic Chaos Gate computer game music!

It's so good to see a battle report with the Warmaster of Chaos been waiting a very long time to see him again!

Love these. You’ve inspired me to make a 2nd edition dark angels army with era appropriate models!

When I start hearing the Ultramarines Chant I need to listen to that a few more times. Grand editing as always ♥

This. This is where it all began for me. You have taken me back to my teens, amazing work my good man.

That Chaos dreadnought is sweet as hell

This is a lovely size of game, and a great style of battle report. We are spoiled with the Minisode-Miniscape crossover. The minis and terrain are so evocative.

I am awaiting this one with GREAT anticipation.

Two of the best oldhammer channels linking up for a Collab. I thought Friday the 13th was supposed to be unlucky

I have to wait one day for this?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Looking forward to it, but gosh I wana watch now

The only battle reports I can watch without going into a coma! The best. Seriously though what I need is for Ed to narrate my everyday life. There’s gotta be an app for that one day.

This was awesome! Highly engaging throughout and top-notch music choices. As someone who started collecting a Black Legion army in 2nd Edition, it's a pleasure to see such classic sculpts hitting the table.

Ah brilliant, I always enjoy these battles. Thanks for posting this.

It's wonderful to first watch all of these models get painted and the enjoy a game of 2nd edition. Great work all around, guys!

You two are my favorite Warhammer youtubers. Awesome video!

A miniscape x minisodes batrep?? Fantastic!

You two have such great channels and seeing you play a game together is pure joy.

I love the pop up cup! Perfection.

I'm excited to see what Mr. Tickle does in this game!

This is amazing! Great production, good angles, cool board, and BEAUTIFUL classic models! I also love how short and sweet it is. Fills me with nostalgia. Keep up the GREAT work! FOR SANGUINIUS, FOR THE EMPEROR!

these battlereports are so fun, rad work there

Just stumbled upon this, I was pleasantly surprised. Great work! Do more!!

That music was great, really adds to the atmosphere of the battle.

It'd be really cool if someone turned some of these narrative games into short little animations. You guys make some of my favourite 40k content!

Excellent report! Looks amazing! Keep them videos coming!

Love the use of the music from Chaos Gate!

Love the battle report being accompanied by the Chaos Gate soundtrack in the background 💪

loved this 2 of my favourite channels combining again. Something nice to sit down to watch while planning my 2nd edition forces!

Best battle reports on RU-vid

Incredible battle report guys! I love how 2nd Edition swings between incredibly ineffective and absolutely brutal interactions 😅 Ed, your narrative is like the very best pages of childhood White Dwarfs - nectar for the ears!

Great stuff! Many thanks for another glorious journey back to 2nd Edition! Excellent narration as always 👍 poor Matthew! I did feel sorry for him when Abaddon was vaporised! 😱

"Drat' Haha also love the sound effects your do for the guns !

what an awesome little splash of hobby history! Felt like i was reading an old school white dwarf bat rep, and i LOVE that!

Two of my favs rolling dice. Great vid!

When the voice over sounds like an episode of Time Commanders. *chefs kiss*

This was such a fun episode! I was sad to see that the talon of Horus did not see any combat but happy the blood angels took a victory!

Once again a stunning batrep from the old days. Absolutely LOVE this style. One thing that always gets me as a person fluent in Spanish is that "Furiosa", a common Blood Angels name seen on many models and artwork, would actually be a GIRL because Latin based words that end in -a are feminine. Literally Furiosa is a feminine Spanish/Portuguese adjective derived from Latin. If a walking Dumpster full of guns wants to identify as a girl in their afterlife, I'm not going to say no.

I love any and all 2nd edition battle reports!

As is expected, so is delivered. A treat.

I love the the way you guys moved and touched all the models and gaming aids.

Great game! Looking forward to more!

I'm always excited to see when you've dropped a new battle report. I'm on the edge of my seat with every roll of the dice!

OH MY GOD YES!

Love that the Death Guard couldn't do anything. So Grandfather Nurgle sent his Bois to pick up the slack. For the Rotfather is generous and attentive to the needs of his children.

This brings back memories. It seems my memory works in black and white though, I remember all my minis being grey and silver. Amazing paintjobs, thank you for sharing!

I want more of this, whatever the price!

Thanks for the videos. I love these nostalgia games so much!

Takes me back to the mid 90s when my brother and I played these two armies. My poor blood angels never stood a chance, I blame the lack of a Dreadnought and not that they had a 10 year old for a commander...

Thank you for sharing! Great batrep.

Love these 2nd edition reports. I started with 3rd and have a lot of nostalgia for the older editions. There are way too many models on the board in current 40k.

What a great video! Matthew inspired me to strip some old Space Wolf Models and re paint them for a game against his Chaos Black Legion. Hi Matthew!

Love this stuff and the collaborations!

Excellent video. As always. Please continue. It is excellent.

The amount of one's rolled... THE AMOUNT OF ONES'S ROLLED! I know the Chaos gods can be fickle but wow, those dice rolls were bad.

great combination of gameplay and lore

Fantastic battle chaps. 2nd Ed never dies!

I love to see more 2nd edition batreps please!

I have just discovered your channel (and 2nd edition of warhammer) with this video, and it's amazing ! I started playing at the end of 2023 and there are so many interresting mechanics that I wish was in 10th edition, I hope you'll do more 2nd edition games

Great battle looking forward to more

Oh Abaddon.... what a way to go lol. I love it!

I wish it had gone another turn or two. Excellent stuff as always!

Great stuff! Also good to see it stopped raining in England for an hour so you could grill some sangers outside.

A NEW EPISODE IS UP! Thanks again Ed for putting these together

Blood Angel Librarian; My Lord Dante I wish the crew of our land speeder to have their names inscribed on the chapter's most honored relic. Dante: Really, brother did they perform some daring recon or noble sacrifice? Librarian: No Commander, they... Killed Abaddon. Dante: ... THEY WHAT!

Those scouts just keep acing their shots.

Awesome battle report!! :) You're doing a great job!!

Minisodes vs Miniscape, perhaps???🎉

Abaddon died, Sindri live. Abaddon: SINDRIIIIIIIIII!!!!

HA! chaos gate og 90's turn based music for each force. Nice touch with that during the introduction of both armies!

friend sent me here, since i started playing since 9th edition, it's impressive how it felt different from what am used to.

I loved it. It's games like this from back in the day that made me love Warhammer 40K so very much me and my late brother would play till the wee hours of the morning on the weekends. Thank you so very much you too for bringing back all of those wonderful memories. Cheers

I love love love these, thank you both

Great video! 👏

Classic 90s minis are the bomb!

Great work as always!

Awesome ! Thanks to both of you

I need so many more of these videos 😩

Well done. This was a great.

That multimelta did a bonkers amount of damage. 2nd ed heavy weapons were not to be trifled with (assuming you hit!) Tough break for Abaddon!

Yep, love this. Thank you.
