How to Play Warhammer Age of Sigmar - A Battle Report for Beginners

Hi folks, I made this battle report for beginners after a request from a subscriber. The goal of this battle report is to talk a person looking to learn how to play Age of Sigmar through each step in a battle sequentially.

Hey doom. Love the vid mate. Could you do another one for intermediate players like me who struggle with tactics such as deployment, what units should deploy with who and where to put them then in a competitive aspect.

Love the beams of light coming off the storm casts during deployment :)

Thank you for the basic core rules 'how to play AoS' video. I have watched a few different 'how-to-play' videos and battle reports. This one really hit the spot. The army list choices you choose helped. I am painting up my Soul Wars box set now. I expect to get a game played soon.

My wife and I just started getting into this hobby, this is such a huge help. Thanks!

It’s hard to know what models to buy . When you don’t even know the rules.
I appreciate this man.
I’m using this and tabletop simulator to learn the game. Then finalizing my army.

Great video Doom. Last sunday, me and a friend finally started our first game of AoS. We used to play fantasy together, but he was reluctant to start the game. We played about 3 games, which took loads of time and we had sooo much fun. We have been checking up on each others hobby progress since monday. He is starting to rebase his vampire counts to round bases and I have been building and priming my ogres. Thanks for this video it will certainly help us!

This is the video I’ve been waiting for someone to make! Great vid

[isaacsaa]

I can’t stress enough how helpful this is :) it’s got just enough detail to get new players started

[He.who.understands.little]

Perfect timing, the store I work at was just gearing up for a grow league which of course now is on hold. I keep getting questions about how to get started so they can be ready for when we start. This good sir is a great video for this. Thank you.

This is great! I am going to have my kids watch this to help them better understand how the game works..

Fantastic video, exactly what I needed and continue to need as I haven't really gotten stuck into AoS yet.

Why I love this is that time is taken so that everything is explained in detail as it comes up. I find normal Battle Reports incredibly hard to get into since they are referencing at best unit abilities I don't know about and at worst obscure rules I wouldn't know where to find. This video takes the time to explain all of that in a concrete fashion, thanks!

Would absolutely love to see more of these informatively styled Battle Reports, especially with other factions in order to get a general grasp for each of them. Great stuff!

This is the best beginner video I've seen, wish it was out a few months ago. Nice job!

[iconocast]

wow the troll paint job and colour looks amazing!

[bryancrawley]

It needs to be noted how great this way, adding the fact that you played by yourself! Thanks!

[colinpessselato]

Great video doom! We just had a bunch of new ppl join in my local area and this is a great video for them to watch! Nice work

[davidcunningham]

I’m still pretty new to aos but you’ve done such a great job of making it understandable... my wife likes your tutorial better than the other ones we’ve watched aswell
Cheers keep up the good work

Great video as always. Very informative for new players.
And I wanted to Thank you for all your Mawtribes content. I picked them up since I love their Fluff and Style, but was a bit underwhelmed by their Tome. You really gave me great insight into how to get them to work
