NEW Age of Sigmar - Skaven vs Stormcast - Skaventide Spearhead

It's time to dive into the brand new edition of Age of Sigmar! Games Workshop was kind enough to send us the brand new starter box so join Mel and Adrian as they play Spearhead, the new game mode for learning the game!

Finally more AoS. This is the reason I come back to the channel.

Been building/painting some of the Spearhead kits so customers can try out the game for free...just finished building the Cities, FEC and Stormcast ones and just blown away with how good these models are. This is the first time really dipping into the fantasy side of it, but glad to be giving it a try finally.

just in turn 2 dunno if you caught it yet but heroes are -1 to hit with range if they're within combat range of friendly units unless they are monsters.

[GordonMcLachlan]

Excellent match! Loved this. More shortform Spearhead please!

[philyearleykushnek]

Yes, yes and yes ! My Maggotkin that have been part of my pile of shame are nearly painted and ready for 4th ! So excited !!

Looking forward to AoS content. I had already decided to finish my Sylvaneth army (only sigmar army) this year. moss is good for leaves as well as table decoration :) Now I just need to resist getting Flesh Eater Courts for vanguard. I used them as kit bash for my durkhari so I already have about 600 points. If i hadn't sold the zombie dragon a couple of vanguard would have brought me to 2k.

Doc Mel and Adrian make such a cute couple. Thank goodness they did the Spearhead game. I was REALLY looking forward to it.

Last turn of Stormcast: now both players' abilities resolve before scoring (there's a separate sub-phase for that), so skaven DO come back before scoring.

Great to see AoS on the channel again and the Spearhead format is fun to watch!

[matthewadamsteil]

Super Excited for 4.0 and hopefully get some friends into spearhead.
Curious if Spear head worries about coherency as much as the main game. It looked like the clan rat on turn 1 would be outside of .5" range for 2 other models.

[imperiumvoxnetwork]

Give us more Age of Sigmar! Stormcast yes !

[tpickles]

Love to see more AoS! I hope y'all play more

[KristopherGrey-tc]

My Maggotkin that i left festering/rotting for ages i final got to use in Warcry + proved a horrible skull to crack, wicked 😈

[sloppypapi]

This is the third Skaven vs Stormcast battle report I've seen and the third loss for the Skaven lol poor ratbois and great match!

[jacoblee]

So excited to have it back on my favorite channel!!

[gwenread]

more sigmar!!! im tuning in every week

[wendellernstzen]

Awesome, as usual! Thanks to these battle reports I ordered my Skaventide today. Thanks!!!

[hexxed]

Love the content. Just a question: At 31:20, Stormcast doesn't get the +1 to hit because Skaven's Hero isn't contesting the objective?

[Skinnyperegrine]

I'll definitely be using spearhead to get new folks into the game, seems like a good game in and of itself, nice hybrid of wargame and board game

[FairMaven]

As someone who has never played, here's a tactics question for whoever - would Mel have been better served picking Adrian's home objective rather than Ignax on the last turn for the double score? If I understand the rules correctly, her Prosecutor flyers could have gotten there as easily as Ignax from the center, and even if she couldn't kill Adrian's character, she probably wouldn't have died to him either, and could have done both shoot with javelins and charge into him to have a good chance at killing him and more OC on the point regardless? And it would mean he scored one less objective there, and also that his clan rats wouldn't have a charge to get on Ignax (and would therefore not score that objective at all, let alone twice). Like I said, I have zero experience here, so I am curious if what seems obvious to someone who doesn't actually play the game makes any actual tactical sense inside - and of course, these things are much harder to see in the heat of the moment than the relaxation of the armchair.
