Never heard nic struggle so hard to sound enthusiastic before 😅
-
I've always seen Tycho as a sort of "Boss character" in his battle reports, the mustache twirling BBEG who just loves being devilishly evil, as it comes natural to him as a player and the armies he plays, so consider me surprised when I found myself rooting for his Loyalist Shadow Vipers against Nick's Genestealers. Absolutely awesome battle report!
-
Nick is an awesome sportsman. That turn 1 was a nightmare for the cults but Nick just shruggs it off as disappointing and then is back to his bubbly best! Congrats to Tycho for being merciless ( in a fun sporting way).
-
Its unfortunate that this game really came down to the very first die roll. When Tycho got to go first then practically tabled Nick immediately, the rest was just practice.
-
I LOVE these two players together. Such positive, upbeat energy for the whole game.
-
He may be Tau Nick, Imperial Guard Nick, or Gene Stealer Cult Nick, but happily, he's always Sound Effects Nick

Recently got into 40k via the Horus Heresy book series, never played the tabletop game before. Now that I've read Nemesis, it's super cool to see a Vindicare pop up in the game. I'm thinking this assassin should have a big impact if he's anything like Eristede Kell!
-
One third of the video is over by the end of Tycho's turn one. That tells me plenty.
-
War suite break dancing on the abarinths body’s 🕺🪦🪦🤣 34:42

holy shit was this game a master class essay for the benefits of alternating activations! This game was over in the first shooting phase, I think this just persuaded me to start using alternating activation for all my games going forward if my group agrees. This was painful to watch. Love the energy and the bat rep though! Props Nick for staying so positive.
-
I'd say the fact that Tycho went for objectives and split-fired so quickly proved how much of a threat Nick really was.
-
I listened to this while working so didn't watch it, but the extra tank and bike noises really helped to sell the story, great work 👏
-
Long time viewer here, love the pacing of the last few episodes although the dice cam gets frustrating to try to keep books on because the dice reflect in the studio light in such a way that you cannot tell what the roll was half the time
-
Nick and Tycho always make these games sooooo entertaining, play on guys.
-
I am actually about to start The gene cult as my last army super super excited to play them, love their lore and playstyle exciting to see how well they do in 10th
-
Wow, that first turn (including losing the roll to go first) was absolutely brutal for Nick on both sides of things. Nick killing Tycho was at least a sidequest completed.
-
U know I was shocked the cults were failing so many comeback rolls. That 2 up fail was insane.
-
How is it that Tycho, servant of chaos, has the only Space Marine army to win on the show? lol
-
This game really serves as an example as to how overpowered hellblasters are - they killed 2 ridgerunners on their own in one shooting phase, while already a man down. The shoots on death thing is also just a tad too powerfull for my tastes. I think that being able to shoot after blowing up is a pretty tall order.
-
Tycho’s turn: please remove this and that. Nick’s turn: failed, failed, failed. Nick, please change bad dice.
