The ground trembles as the Chaos Knights stride to war, but with members of the Ten Thousand standing before them, will their trail of destruction continue?

Actually excited and rooting for Beard this year, love his enthusiasm!!!! Hoping you all have a great year, your channel is the highlight of my weeks during these times.
The idea of the demonic Titan brought down by a comparatively miniscule dagger is hilariously cinematic. Epic.
So many 1s on the rerolls. Epic game though. Clash of the titans, those custodes are scary.
Custodes are nuts! The last turn was great!
I know this channel masquerades as a 40K battlerep channel, but really it's an undercover social experiment to see just how quickly the "players" can be driven insane by statistically improbably dice roles. The answer is, the get the to brink very quickly, but look at the little guys just hang on in there 😉 Sanities dangling by a thread
Really enjoyed that lads, perfect lockdown entertainment. Thanks
That was fun but so frustrating to watch for the knights, custodes are so tanky , especially this dreadnought, it’s no fun to spend 3/5 of your army to kill one thing the entire game
Good to see Stig taking on a bigger role in the team. Great running,commentary, just try not to overtalk everything Beard says. As the camera operator you drown out beard of you speak at the same time.
What's with the tattoos Stig? No offense, but were you drunk when you chose the design? Please tell me it's a WIP and not finished…
Would love for you guys to get a Telemon.
Fine production, fine wargaming and even finer gentlemen playing.
That dreadnought though, what a beast!
Another tremendously entertaining battle report. Thank you very much!
I feel like Beard needs to do a PSA to let us know how he offended the Dice Gods so badly, so no one else makes the same mistake haha
All hail the King Beard, Lord of the 1 rerolls!
New trooper 1st mission: holy hell what is that?! Theres a 1000 foot tall giant robot coming straight at us!! Omg theres 4 of them!!
Captain: o yea, u dont need to worry about those. They dont do anything
Cheers fellas, nice batrep, love seeing Custodes on the channel!
Apparently I need a Galatus. They are DURABLE
29:00 melta missiles reroll all wounds against vehicles.
I look at this, but sometimes, I don't know why you make the decisions you make. You should draw on the screen, Madden NFL style, and be like "I'm worried about these guys over here, but if I go over here or here I can come through this way, but it's risky because of this guy over here" and cover the screen with circles and arrows. It would be very clear for those of us who have virtually no experience.
Thanks for the BatReps guys! I just really wish I didn't kinda hate watching Custodes in games these days. 🙁
Oof, lot of missed rules in this one, even with Grotty on the side (e.g., the melta missiles get to reroll against vehicles, the extra damage from the demonic weapons was missed at least twice, and the desecrator doesn't hit on 3's once it's at nine wounds).
As someone who plays against custodes often, I share the pain. Stupid golden army.
Great game gents
Stig, the Melta missiles re roll to wound on vehicles!!
That gigantic red chaos monstosity has only 4 attacks on a charge? What in Khorne's name is wrong with that codex?
The terrain seemed quite unkind on the knights, with their movement being extremely restricted. I'll admit it's probably a hard balance to achieve: having enough terrain for 9th missions and also giving knights enough space to play the game. It's further complicated by the limitations on obscuring for 18+ W models because you need massive terrain pieces so the knights can hard at least some of their models.
Question: I thought you could only target units you declared as a charge target in the attack phase? so the t1 wardog charge shouldn't have been able to attack the custodians? Or has that been changed?
Those rolls from Beard… 🙄
How many times can Beard roll a 1 into a 1? Watch this episode and find out (hint: Its more than you would think humanly possible )
Can we get xenos vs xenos? Asking as a paid member ^_^. Enough of this imperial heresy.
Great batrep, you got a sub from me 🙂
These reports have been helping me get through lockdowns and difficult times. Thanks for the content!! 🙂
Stig looks a bit under the weather in this one. Hope he's doing fine 😶
Beards rerolls seem to just be.. the same roll. or worse. every time. amazing.
Beard: grabs a two
Me: nooooOoOOooO0oOoo00ooo
Dice: turns into a one.
Me: everytime Beard. Why are you like this??
Have you guys ever done reports in 60fps? I think it would add a hell of a lot.
Kinda sad when a custodes dreadnought (and not even the biggest one) just stops three knights in their tracks. 2+/3++/6+++ is basically cheating
Beard is getting so much better, but targetting the Dreadnought was such a waste of time.
He was typically doing 3-5 wounds on Knights due to his S7
Great game! The custodes did awesome
BRUVA DREADNAUGHT, YOU SHALL BE REMEMBERED
Not a huge criticism, but for all your videos could you put more footage in of the entire armies laid out please. You do a lot of talking about them but don't allow us to see the armies in all their glory for long enough to appreciate it…
