Are you four guys sharing a RU-vid account?

Oh heck yeah I love when channels bust out the big models

Jeremy called it with “you were over confident”

Missed opportunity, but there’s lots that goes into these videos so understandable when they so macro-focused. I appreciate that compared to other videos that do something silly only because it’s “theme”

At least not with everyone😅

Not getting anything higher than a 2 on all those rolls was some terrible luck.

I would have 2 handed only with Elrond since he already has his elven blade that gives +1 to wound against Spirits: a +2 against a defence 10 dude it’s very juicy

Using an anecdotal example in which 6 non-twohanding dice didn't roll higher than a four hardly proves your point. Given Jacob already had a +1 from Elrond, two-handing is a good option a lot of the time.

I got lucky in the key combat. Sauron is usually fine against a single hero, but doesn’t like fighting a few at once.

Doesn’t make a huge difference- usually Sauron heads towards the reinforcement points or stays back. There is a bit more room to manoeuvre on the bigger board though.

Thanks for the comment! Great question, the Lord of the West" special rule is an active special rule which means that if you are transfixed you are not able to use it

Ehh, it was absolutely the correct call. Failing 4 dice looking for a 3+ is a 1% chance and with the two support dice that could have brought the 6 it was even less. Its like picking between a 99.2% and a 99.6% or something where the first one has way better payoff.

​@@Corppi22 It is a shame people are using this as a win against two-handing. The odds were way in Jacobs favor and he could have possibly killed Sauron with 4/3 on Elrond and 5/4 on Izzy, with doubled dice.

Thanks for the comment, we were playing "The Last Alliance" scenario from the Armies of Lord of the Rings book which gave us all the rules and participants. Sitting back with the elves and shooting was an option but the Orcs come back indefinitely so it would not have gotten me a big advantage and the goal was to kill Sauron who has powerful magic so I wanted to charge forwards to get to him!
