New GHB Battle Report: Stormcast Dragons vs Sylvaneth!! 

After this game i am starting a grass roots campaign to make Alarielle the Warmaster of the army that she is the god of lol!

Thanks for the clarification. Since filming this we have played quite a few more games, and the rules are starting to click!

Glad you enjoy it! Tons of new Stormcast stuff on the way!!

Alarielle can make all terrain on the board overgrown once per battle ;)

Yea but he set up 2 Models/Units with this battle trait, so he had to charge or strike and fade with both of them. So not completed i guess

@@CraccStar not really, you complete it if "any" unit does it

@@paudimension2365 oh right, my fault. Thank you :)

It's funny, I feel like I told him this during move phase and he was sure it had to be a teleport LOL. That will make that tactic much easiler for him to accomplish in the future. Thank you for watching :)

@@BattleshockWargaming yes, it has to be a teleport, teleporting away after fighting is a teleport (y)

We have some great new lists to showcase with the changes to coherency. Annihilators with shields are shockingly good now and the army wide point reductions have unlocked some interesting new build options. Stay tuned!

Thank you so much. Age of Sigmar is an amazing game system and is in an amazing place right now. Beautiful models, interesting rules, and a wonderful community!

@@BattleshockWargaming I agree on the models they are so nice looking, community always great, fun looking rules. Keep up the great battle reports

And be careful with the Aetherwings and Battlemage when you put them near or inside a Wyldwood, they dont have the Sylv Keayword and will take damage at the end of charge on a 6+/4+

After this gaming I am starting a grass roots campaign to make Alarielle the Warmaster of the army that she is the god of lol

Your the best Loner!

if i remember correctly the general was about 13 inches away from the objectives

The objective is a point on the battlefield, the Zephyros teleported within 6" of the objective. The markers are just showing eligible range to score objectives

@@BattleshockWargaming Well damn I missed out on way more plays as far contesting objectives go. Thanks again for the awesome feedback! One last quick question is on a Behemat army does Titanic Duel (or any +hit) work with Pulverizing Strike?

We had a blast. We learned so much about the new GHB and now we are going to take all that knowledge to the Boise Cup/]

for sure still learning the primal dice when this was filmed lots of new stuff to learn in this season

Michael is a strong Sylvaneth player, the new sauce is definitely 6 Kurnoth with Swords. IMO I think the spiteswarm and battle mage combo will be very risky with primal dice in the mix, so expecting to see competitive lists switch to Heartwood with plus to move trait. Interesting time to play AOS, feels like an earthquake has hit the meta and that makes us excited to try new things ;)

michael was under the impression you had to charge using strike and fade that is how it is worded in the book. it was after this game that the community pointed out the designer notes in the app that clarifies you can simply charge then teleport away.

freaking flies man, keep sneaking into the studio!

The SDG are battleline if your general is a knight draconis :)

Can you give some context? A timestamp would be helpful so we can take a look :)

So lame LOL. One day she will be considered a general in her own army

Good point! We are adding a primal dice overlay so it is easier to see what we have, and will make us more aware of them as we play. This was game 2 with the new GHB and still have a ton to learn. Thanks a lot for taking the time to comment :)

Disregard, they are thunder strike, ugh forgot.

Blaze of Glory!! :)

I’d agree with that. Love this channel but could do without that bit each game.

I totally agree with this statement. Something that I do all the time is start casting before heroic actions and Michael is constantly having to remind me. Retro will occur from time to time (just as in a regular game) but we will work to get our sequencing improved. One thing to note, when we started filming content, we noticed there are a lot more mistakes than you think vs playing a game that you cant literally replay and watch again. Playing the game at a moderately high level, managing all of the equipment and getting everything in order takes ALOT of practice. Our goal is to always be improving in some aspect of the game and how we present it to you, and we really appreciate the positive feedback. Thank you for the well thought out comment, and happy wargaming!

The Warsong had vesperal gem in this one, but the seed of rebirth is great! Thanks for taking the time to comment and follow our channel :)

It is just so good! I also really like run and charge once per battle with luck stone on a different unit and Celestant Prime, that way you can drop 3 hammers at once and just have so much fun. It is just very hard to pass up a free unit.

Michael went 3-2 with Seraphon Starborne, David went 3-2 with Stormcast Dragons, Jarod Brown 3-2 with Lumineth Realm Lords, Dan went 4-1 with his Slaanesh, Jeremy went 4-1 with his OBR, Ted Seabolt went 3-2 with Gloomspite Gitz, and Oliver went 3-2 with Slaves to Darkness. Positive win rate for the whole team, was a very challenging GT due to new GHB and points changes just days beforehand. We are off to Boise Cup next weekend and hope to keep the positive win rate going :)

Good luck! I played 10 games before I understood the rules, and took quite the beating during that time, the game is extremely fun once you get tactics, overlapping buffs and a good understanding of all of the army subfactions and abilities. It is a journey, and I hope you end up enjoying the game as much as we do. Glory to Sigmar and Only the Faithful will prevail!!

We are trying to add that element eventually, involves a ceiling mounted camera and stream deck, plus would add additional edit time as would be seperate video file to implement. The top down agreeably is a great way to add depth and visual aesthetic to the channel. We will continue to make these more enjoyable to watch, and we appreciate you taking the time to post a well thought out comment. As always, thanks so much for watching our channel. Tons more on the way!!

This one was a batte regiment, but nowadays I really dig andtorian acolytes for that sweet primal spam.

@@BattleshockWargaming you couldn't have gone for acolytes right?

If the Zephyros had arcane tome then you could make the battalion, I don't think I did that in this list tho

@@BattleshockWargaming true! You did not, I’ll check it out! Thanks

Stormcast eternals still have several good builds that arent all dragons. They can still build a very mobile force that can put out a blistering amount of firepower

There are points updates every 3 months, download the age of sigmar app for updated points and game faqs:)

Thanks! We appreciate that, we try to remember that "have fun" is the most important thing! Hope to see you in future comments and on our discord :)

I know david knows that rule hurting himself by not rolling that extra dice when those dragons explode back to the heavens, thanks for the comment will keep and eye on that

thank you for the well thought out comment! Alarielle was originally my model and I had the greatest time smashing around the battlefield when she was grey in second addition. Michael put a ton of time into painting this army and bringing it to life, and he always brings his A game when he plays them. I had a mixture of good luck and proper board positioning to take this one down. I have won against this list 3 time out of around the 12 times I've played against it. Michael even beat me at the final table to a tournament by one point with a very similar list. If you have been watching for awhile, you probably already know that I favor aggressive playstyle that requires some luck, but big rewards, where Michael plays more of a castle/scalpel playstyle where he focuses on trades and consistent scoring. The dragons went 3-2 at Tacoma open with losses vs Seraphon Starborne and Beasts of Chaos, but were able to prevail vs another Sylvaneth army, Ironjaws and Daughters of Khaine

The general was just outside 12, if i remember correctly it was about 13 inches away

The dragons attacks were 2 damage each :) they had lances, so got +1 to rend and damage on the charge :)

Good points! We are glad you enjoyed the report. Michael commented in wrap up that he should have been a bit more aggressive with Alarielle during this game, and I fully agree.

Thank you Christine! Hope all is well in your world! Miss seeing you around but i really appreciate after all this time you are still supporting the channel

Thank you eric! We appreciate the comment

He got away with not taking damage for the first 2 battle rounds, then we started rolling for him lol. It took us a second to realize that he doesnt benefit from Sylvaneth keyword, which makes it risky to hid him in the trees LOL.

Dragged into the Tempest ability has very poor wording. It states that you pick a model within an inch after all attacks are resolved. Michael is a strong player and knows to get models outside of an inch if at all possible, so I just never had the opportunity LOL. I did forget to lay low the tyrants turn 3 though, would have been nice to lift one of those pesky tree revenants! Thanks for taking the time to comment, tons of Stormcast stuff on the way!

Thank you! We have 6 videos in the pipe, some juicy guest reports as well. Thanks for being a member and taking the time to comment, much appreciated.

I undercoated the beetle with different color dry brushing and then air brushed different color turbo dork color shift on top. I was really nervous to use turbo dork on the beetle but i was really pleased with the result

Yeah I don’t have an airbrush. Great outcome though! You nailed it 😊🙏

@@tmkpainting3734 I feel like you can get the effect with out an airbrush. drybrush undercoat and then try the turbo dork thinned out. obviously its going to take some time but it should still look great

Thank you, we were very excited to finally upgrade some things and hope that it shows in our production value! Thanks for taking the time to comment :)

We had a wonderful time in Tacoma. It was awesome to see so many of our friends and make some new ones.

I love them too, except when Durthu pops out of one and rinses my general turn 1 LOL

It was not, oversight by Dave. Sometimes with multiple video files, we forget to cut a clip here and there. Hope you still enjoyed the video :)

@@BattleshockWargaming always do! Thanks for indulging my curiosity. Feels like finding an easter egg, haha You guys do top notch work; thanks for the entertainment!
