12,000 points of Necrons, Tau and Deathwatch fight to the death! Warhammer 40k Feature Battle Report

Tau: So, temporary truce?

Deathwatch: Foul Xenos, do you really think I would humiliate myself by-

_The planet opens up, revealing a massive Necron army awakening_

Deathwatch: -not taking your generous offer?

[justeliwood]

This battle report feels lore accurate; necrons have everyone dead to rights, tau get obliterated in melee range by something beyond their comprehension, and space marines somehow pull a victory by having terminators teleport in at the last second.

[IonTheUndion]

Nick's cheerful attitude makes me imagine the T'au commander is trying to be positive and buddy-buddy with the marines and it's hilarious. This was a really fun battle report.

[TheJester]

I felt that last line. "My inner 12 yr old was super happy. My outer 48 yr old wants to go home and take a nap."

[bensparks]

dont you just hate when you shoot at necrons 90 times and they just keep coming back to life

[rymotron]

Just want to say that you have outdone yourselves with this one- your best work imo

[mrindecisive]

That was epic! The terminators teleporting down and holding the line is straight from a Black Library novel!
Also, necron rolls were unbelievable :D

[TheSourestKraut]

The necron experience is summed up perfectly by Tycho at 33:56
"He kills one... aaaand itpromptlygetsbackup"

[codyott]

I just started the video, and he's already got me pumped to see the other 60 minutes. Just describing the mission objectives was beyond awesome.

[RevanR]

There's 2 things you should hyped on this video :
Tycho narration and Michael & Brent going all out

[michaelbuckthorp]

So much fun! I hope everyone enjoys this as much as I did!

[aWeSoMe-dfor]

I remember barely being able to scrape together a 500pt list; but after a heavy 3 years of hobbing, this video makes me want to throw 5000 pts against another massive army. Looks so much fun! Love you guys❤

[justinsinke]

I love these narrative themed battles. They're so much fun.

[AndrewNarog]

36:47 And with that quote from The Ultimate Showdown has won Michael my support. Love it.

Excellent job as ever, always glad to watch a PlayOn production.

[ultralaggin]

really hope the necrons can pull a win i very rarely see them win and they are my favorite

[Heizzer]

I can’t imagine the skill of JT with how lots of units have customised models

[syradon]

I love this narretive fights, big armies and a wonderful table.
This was realy much fun to watch.
As he said "my inner 12 year old me" is crying about this epicness.

[lethalbiscuit]

The sheer amount of toughness from everyone was impressive.

[jormangandr]

Nick you sent me to the channel after I cut your plywood at rona. I am now officially getting into warhammer thanks to you!

[lancenazraheim]

@53:49 - I think the Nightbringer's Necrodermis may have prevented that kill if it had 4 wounds going into that fight phase. "-this model cannot lose more than 3 wounds in the same phase. Any wounds that would be lost after that point are not lost.". I could be wrong ofcourse. But as always, amazing production value, great story, and the terrain is an inspiration for future projects. Play On!
