MIDDLEHAMMER/OLDHAMMER NOSTALGIA OVERLOAD!
In this video, I play through the first mission from 'The Battle for Armageddon', the campaign booklet that came inside the venerable second edition Warhammer 40,000 starter set released in 1993.
Upon the multicoloured sands of Armageddon, a fire team of Blood Angels faces off against three mobs of gretchin! Will the marines drive off the greenskins threatening the security of the bridgehead, or will the gretchin use their alien cunning to lay the Sons of Sanguinious low?

Now this was something special. Never seen a batrep like this and I love it. No need to show every move and dice roll, just a general direction, crucial actions and moments and most importantly: atmosphere provided by narration, camera. The storytelling, the plotwist with that ona lucky kill by one cheeky gretchin... that made some realy awesome format for batreps like this. Firstly I thought that 10 minutes will be way to low to even show this little action... but it was packed, engaging and without a dull moment. Please, sir, continue on with this. Its original and very enjoyable. Wishing the best for your channel and you.

@edpaintsminis Год назад

Wow! What a lovely comment! Thanks so much. I'm going to keep tweaking the camera and format to hopefully make it even more engaging. Glad that you dug the atmosphere too! You won't have to wait too long for the next installment 😎

@hyp3r-systems838 Год назад

I agree this was VERY well done, i wish more channels did BatReps as cool as this

@bertvancleynenbreugel2600 13 дней назад

@@edpaintsminis I completely agree with @rudolfyr1797 Most battlereports are long and boring because they banter too much and show all dicerolls....which is just not exciting. Just showing the action in a narrative way is so much more enjoyable! Also, your channel makes me want to play 2nd edition again

@lotsofspoons Год назад

Your starter set and bulked up terrain are just GORGEOUS ❤. Great battle report, nice mix of reporting and narrating. Looking forward to the next ones.

@edpaintsminis Год назад

Ah wonderful! I too have just come by an eldar force - mate of mine is clearing out his loft and found all his Eldar. Some awesome sculpts there and all the aspects. Perhaps that'll be my next project!

Since the 8th edition GW f....... Warhammer 40000 up. Better play the 2nd edition or some older ones. Better rules and better entertainment

4:46 sons if sanguinius encounter Ork snipers... Seems familiar.

@volcano3493 Год назад

Nice trip down nostalgia lane! Being a SM in 2nd was difficult as a lot of weapons had a ASM. Also tough mission with only five marines against 30 long range autoguns. A wonder it resulted in a draw. Anyway great batrep. Love the BA Orange paint job from 2nd.

@edpaintsminis Год назад

It was tough, but the marines sure got battered more than I expected. Part luck and good positioning that the flamer and sergeant remained intact!

@Skull_Gun Год назад

Good to see some nicely drilled barrels! Blood angels demolished the gretchin when we played, only took a single loss, the marines got payback by obliterating the gretchin with grenades on turn 3 and 4.

@edpaintsminis Год назад

I think that's probably how it's supposed to play out!

@DecayedAndy Год назад

really enjoyed the vid but i would say if possible if you want to slow-mo footage in the future record it at a higher frame rate so it looks a bit smoother when you slow it down :) it was just a little choppy in a few places. Vids like this kinda make me want to stop getting the current GW stuff and go for this classic stuff, if you happen to do Epic in this style in the future i would be interested

@edpaintsminis Год назад

Great shout Andy. This was something I picked up on and hopefully addressed a little more successfully in part 2! I do have a few ideas for Epic as it happens, so watch this space 😎

@DecayedAndy Год назад

@hammerthebacklog Год назад

This is fabulous stuff Ed! It's amazing that a game with four squads can be more engaging that a 3000 point battle report. Each model being unique and actually mattering is what makes it for me! 100% stealing this idea, expect a mirror episode in the same format for the WFB 5th edition starter set, just with an Irish accent!

@sebastianp2472 2 дня назад

this old edition battle reports are really great - especially when narratively done so well as you did. It feels way better than just 2 armies clashing together and killing each other for just some strategy points or such - the story gives it all a meaning, that someitmes feels lost in newer editions. Thanks for this format.

@nrais76 Год назад

So many memories. Me and the guys used to spends entire weekends playing games. Among strong memories are a game of my Valhallan Imperial Guard bringing down a building on the heads of the Blood Axe Orks in it, the frustration of my opponent as my Blood Angels Veterans denied his Khorne Berzerkers the charge, a weekend spent with a LARGE group of friends all sleeping over one guy's house with multiple games going in different rooms the whole time with pizzas from the local deli cooking at various times of day, and one MASSIVE game of Titan Legions played for several entire weekends over a summer with 3-man teams across four ping-pong tables in a garage (I think it was something like 500,000 points a side).

@edpaintsminis Год назад

That sounds like a helluva good time! Thank you for sharing. Love these stories of gaming I'm the 90s.

@ikeduno7973 4 дня назад

I would love to know if the bigger later edition marine bases or, say, using later edition kit get in the way of proper 2nd edition-ing. I think the Centurions are one of the most 2nd edition lookin' models ever.
