Kill Team: Challenger - Tau vs Ultramarines S01 E02 battle report. 

Any video nick is in is a Christmas gift

I love the dice number graphic, sleek and allows less jumping around

This is the best christmas present, don't let this series die!

I love how if Nick wins he’s going to gift the killteam so he can beat it again😂

I am really enjoying the roll numbers on screen. Giving something visual when we don't see the dice. Well done.

Tau getting only robot casualties sounds like a perfect battle :P

Nothing says Christmas like bolter fire in the snow

Nick has to be one of the most wholesome 40k gamers ever. The goobery grin from ear to ear and the “pew pew” noises is what I aspire to be like.

Turn 2: is.. is this the first time Nick has played the tau as a gun line, like they’re “supposed” to be

Gongrats on bringing wargaming to the 21 century. This is the most professional wargaming channel out there. Super impressed with your videos. Now do some Underworlds an i would love you even more.

Merry Christmas! Maybe as a present Steve should get an army of lamenters to go with his luck?

Nick always seems like he's had accouple to many coffees and I love it

Soon enough Nick's kid will be screaming DIE FILTHY XENO in his face.

Good stuff, more Kill Team! Minor note on the Tau, Saviour Protocols works differently in KT (pretty sure an intern wrote the FAQ), and you can make your infantry's armour save THEN decide if you want to pass it to a drone after that :)

Am just going to post corrections as I see them! The first injury roll should have been 2 dice picking highest as it was a D2 shot that brought the marine to 0 wounds

As someone who just got done fighting a Tau kill team all weekend, this video is giving me some drone-related PTSD.

Nothing says Christmas like combat Tau slashing through the snow

I'm a simple man. I see kill team challanger. I smash like.

The Greater Good really takes Christmas seriously! Man, what a slaughter. Very tactical play from both players. The Emperor protects!

What Steve knows: Nick's kid is getting those models for Christmas. What Steve doesn't know: Nick's kid also got a steamroller for Christmas.

Pathfinder: Allas, a victory for the greater good! Fire Warrior: UH, sir, what are these things exatly. Sniper: I think the humans call them "presents". And one of the rarest at that. Pathfinder: That is why it is time for celebration, and a wish for future victories. For the greater good Everyone: For the greater good! (And Merry Christmas.Grimmas to all who bothered to read this weird comment)

Ok, I am simple man. I see new video from Tabletop, so I click. See Nick is in it - I know I got a bonus good time. Merry Grimmas guys. P.S. Those overcharged two 1s were painfull to watch. P.S.S. That scene with Nick`s kids was worth the watch of the entire video :)

Dice roll display is a game changer, seeing the dice roll and cutting back and forth was always a bit clunky

I just imagine his wife handling four excited little Nicks for Christmas. What fun!

Let’s go Tau! Merry Christmas everyone!

"Hot Dice; Cold Dice" - The Space Marine Steve story

“Do the presents offer cover”, ha. Thanks for the Christmas showdown.

That was so kind of Steve to give a gift to Nick's kid! Tis the season to give marines falalala lalala

They forgot to put 'Forgetful' on Nick's profile ;) Love you Nick! You do the Greater Good proud!

Steve is the definition of a good sport, getting horrible luck and taking it like a man

For the Greater Good! We love your army Nick! Hope you get to stuff your kids stocking with cool space marines!

I hope tau nick wins so his kid can grow up as a proper empire loving child than a fish communist. (Love you nick)

That ending scene with Nick placing the Killteam under the tree and his kids rushing up and snagging it was golden. Such a wholesome touch. Happily Holidays PlayOn.

Timmy: But Steve 9th ed. Tau need all the help they can get. Happy Holidays! I love kill-team :P

Nick really showed just how good the Tau can be. Tons of fun to see him having fun with them as he goes hard in the paint with that big grin of his

This is such a great series: My brothers and I all learned Kill Teams and figured out weird rules by watching these battle reports! So apart from being very excellently edited and done, they really got me more into the game! Love your guys stuff, merry christmas!

Definitely more kill team! I love base 40k but Kill Team is definitely an alternative if you wanted to wind down.

Rail rifles are the Christmas miracle we all so desperately needed this year. Take that Space Marine armour save!!!!

*tau in the title* it’s nick, it’s gotta be nick, it’s gotta be nick *Nick is shown* THE TAU GOD IS HERE!!!!

Tau nick have 3 kids. Damn . The man . The legend. The player everyone want to be 😅

gotta say, this was a lot better ending than seeing them getting driven over.

Nothing can withstand the power Nick's enthusiasm. It's like Heavy 6 S12 AP-4 D:D6+3. It conquers all.

Did my first tau kill team game yesterday. 4 shield drones, 4 gun drones, 3 rail rifles and a leader with a normal rifle.... against black templar.... it was brutal....

Steve got destroyed in this match and I'm very impressed by his sportsmanship. I could see he was not happy so it was very wholesome that he managed to just take it on the chin, very good match! Another win for the greater good!

I'd love to see Black Magic Craft and his home made terrain make a visit to the Tabletop. (Choose a Canadian on purpose)

I really like Nick's energy in all the games he played.

I love the ends of these episodes where we see what happens to the teams if Steve loses. Everything from a literal steam rolling to becoming a wholesome children’s gift!

man- tau nick is so cool. His son's gotta be so lucky to have him as a dad

Again, I say this offten, but Nick is a fucking blessing to this hobby. Its clear that half way In Steve is not having a good time. He's pissed off at his roles. Anyone else would just squash him. And then Nick goes and cheer shim on! He celebrates with him when he destroys the drones! Nick, thank you for being you.

The railgun noise Nick makes at 5:58 is too good.

I can't get over how their personalities contrast with the darkness of the source material. Is this what chaos gods are like?

This channel always has the best tau.

Always happy to see more from Nick!

"sire we're taking heavy bolter fire" "regroup behind that present, this will surely protect us!" *then they died*

Steve & nick are such a great pair of players! Love these series

I feel so bad for Steve, because I play the ultrabois and seeing them kill only two drones made my soul die.

Hi Play on crew a fellow Canadian and costal dweller says Hi!!

That ending made me shed a nerd tear. I have never played 40k but I love the lore and the setting and I have learned a lot by watching yalls matches. Gonna start saving for a small kill team myself and try my hand at painting.

Twelve people don't believe in the magic of the Christmas greater good.

This channel is what finally convinced me to pick up 40k and Kill Team. Please keep this series running!

Space Marine Steve, I felt that failed overwatch on the charging drone on an existential level.

Merry Christmas POT guys, thanks for the video as I prep Christmas dinner!

This is a great series. Sincerely. That's coming from another guy named Steve who also loves Space Marines.

You guys are really making these battle reports fun! Keeping them to 30-40 minutes instead of 2-3 hour affairs is just awesome. And having the dice onscreen is a good innovation, keeps the flow going. Nice to see the Tau kick some ass. For the greater good!

I love the fact space marine steve is somehow cursed by terrible dice. I don’t know what he did or said to Rngesus to piss him off that much

Come one come all and listen to this Christmas tale: Because Tau nick was gonna give the space marines to his kid He greater good smiled upon him and winning he did. And that's an absolute dream all thanks to the defeat of the space marine.

Merry Christmas from Germany :') you guys ROCK !!

Christmas shopping to the max is Black Friday

I'm not apart of the Tau scum myself, but Nick's enthusiasm and charisma is really contagious, he just exudes joy and life.

Used to collect as a kid but never played Play on really makes me want to start collecting again especially with a simpler game like kill team Nick is by far my favorite player of your team but I cant help but feel for Steve, literally has bad luck every game That bad luck cant last forever and hopefully gets the big win in the next kill team match up

Jeeeesus, those rolls hurt my soul

Steve: For sale, one barely used bag?... lol, great batrep. This is easily one of the sleekest and most fun channels to watch. Keep up the great work!

Love seeing Nick on this channel, its so clear to see his passion for the hobby come out in his acapella sound effects and joy in his eyes even when the dice are bad. Glad to see a win for the great T'au and keen to see more kill team in the future :)

Editor, you forgot to turn the mic channels around when they changed sides. Otherwise great video!

The editing was superb on this one! The animated dice numbers are a good touch, and the drones exploding just made me smile.

I thought Imperium players get REALLY bad dice rolls when the cameras are aimed at them, but then I realize it's just Steve who does it.

Nick has awesome dad vibes; and no wonder, a father to three boys!

What is this "Christmas"? I know only of Sanguinala. Is this some heretical term that I am too loyal to understand?

I really love how much fun they have in the beginning but hey just the Christmas spirit

This channel is amazing. I have debated building a 40k army because I am terrible at arts and crafts. Aka, building and painting minis. But now that I know about kill team (means I don't have to paint an entire army) I really really want to get into it and it seems less daunting, and with this Ninjon educational painting channel you all have gifted me the confidence to give this a try. Thank you!

Huzzah! T'au Nick evens the score against Space Marine Steve! Fantastic battle to watch, and man those rail guns were just brutal!

Man I just love Nick's personality, such a chill dude

I’m not even mad the glorious imperium was so soundly destroyed by a bunch of blue fish people, because that is going to be a great Christmas present!

Why children!!!!! Don't steal Nick's present to his son. Merry Christmas to you guys. Thanks for a great year of content. God bless you guys. Steve, long live Leman Russ (maybe space wolves vs thousand sons 40k in 40min?) Nick, for the Greater good (I actually start collecting Tau as a second army because of you)

HAHAHAHAHAHA, Nick - "Merry Christmas!" Steve - "Play On......What???" That was awesome!! Great game!!

That would make the best present ever!!! I've been a long time fan of warhammer and warhammer 40k since high school.....but I have never owned a single model lol.

The Chemistry between this guys is amazing

I think this is my favorite series on *Play on Tabletop*

Great show and all the work you put into this really shows. Everything is very well thought through and polished. All the players are great too!

"Nick has one volume and attitude." From that point on I knew this would be enjoyable to watch :)

i LOVE the idea of models painted by a painter in the mini community. that is a super fun concept. please keep doing this! big fan of jon, i just want to be his friend so i can paint and eat tendys with him.

God, I love the sportsmanship of these two gentleman!

They switched sides but the left and right sound channels didn’t change over

Congrats on another great show! The custom terrain scenes are FABULOUS and has inspired me to print some of my own terrain! My printers have been non-stop printing for myself and a friend who got me into this hobby....hope it can look as good as yours someday! Keep up the great work!!

The sound of any sort of ballistics penetrating space marine armour was foreign to him. The shooting pain in his left shoulder indicated that the armour that was penetrated was his own. The only upside is that it made the previous wound gained in the battle hurt a lot less. "Commander, we need to fall back. These weapons are far more powerful then initially thought. We need a better plan" said one of the marines, who had taken cover from the powerful shots with the commander. "We are the emperors finest. We do not run from anything" the commander retorted. Before he could add anything further, a loud clang, caused by a round from the Tau rifle hitting the commanders armour and ricocheting off it. "We need to get in close. On my mark, suppress their position. I will then charge and end this. Ready?" The commanders head jerks forward. He stumbles a couple steps forward, before collapsing, a hole in the back of his helmet laying any questions about what had happened to rest. "Dammnit. Everyone, fall back!" The solider shouts. As the Space Marines slowly fall back, quiet returns to the snow covered land. (My apologies for any mistakes I made. Let me know and I will correct them)

This is my first of your videos. Really love the graphics adds for shots, and graphics for the dice results. Really cool. Love the overall production quality. Look forward to watching more

Can we have Nick’s kid reaction to the Kill Team?

Still super stoked to see some IRON HANDS. Love this series

Oh Steve.......STEVE!!!!! That was rough and frustrating to watch ;) Probably a decent reason to flip the table tbf.

Graphic showing dice result is a keeper. Great idea y'all
