That was one intimidating gunline by the guard haha. Thanks to the players and Indrid for the entertainment!
what are the big plans for elite 3.0? I'm excited to see what the mod team comes up with!
also gg everyone and huge thanks to the players and Indrid <3
an Inquisitor hero with some sisters of battle would be pretty cool actually!
THIS match showed how cool the current guard meta is.
Also well done on the StormTrooper powerbashes.
"Men fix bayonet." – The Replay. Very cool game indeed.
I thought the Stormblade (is it the Stormblade? the big plasma thinggy) would probably not be so great in this match as they are facing Ork and SM, both were pretty good at fielding super heavy infantry. But they did surprisingly well (no doubt helped by that constant cheesecake batch )
Capri the colorful Captain leads his renegades to raid and reave among the spires of an Imperial Hive World. As distraction and cannonfodder he brought along a host of Orks and unleashed a Tyranid Voidship which he had found lifeless in the cold of the void. The Captain has brought many killers onto the Hive World, but if there is one thing the world‘s PDF has never had a shortage of it is bodies to throw at the enemy.
Stromtroopers MVP
Literally playing right now in the low 3v3 lobbies cause I suck haha
Glorious Guardsmen Gallantly Granting the Gospel of Heavy Guns to those Grimy Gits who have the Gall to Give Grief to the Grand Imperium of the Great God Emperor.
I fear the recent Patch didnt help the 3on3 balance. Imperial lategame is even stronger than SMs lategame now, and Stormblade is such an overkill.
great sneaky power bashing, great distraction at key moment. Orks not being at the right place the right time few times cost Blue the game.
Nokrith was a corrupted planet.
Not with the taint of beings from beyond reality, but with the subtle genetic infiltrations of a genestealer cult.
Such an accursed place was isolated. Cut off by raging warpstorms for centuries. Left alone, as alien monstrosities poisoned its soul.
The cult of the void will had sunk its claws deep into the local imperial population, launching a silent coup and slowly but surely integrating ever more citizens into the 'loving arms' of the void gods. Such was the mastery of the takeover, mechanicus techpriests had been pulled in, providing a wealth of tech to be distributed to the cult's armed forces.
Even the native population of orks were not free from the clutches of the tyranid organisms, with genestealer ork hybrids cultivated by the cult over generations.
Despite this, the charade of normalcy was dutifully upkept, preferring to slowly subsume any new obstacle to add to their strength.
The arrival of the astral lances Battle barge, Hand of dominion, proved to be the largest challenge to the void will's capabilities.
But trapped within the madness of the warpstorm and reeling from losses after a failed campaign, they ever so slowly infected the marines, until they once again had yet more specialised forces under their sway.
Eventually, the great storm abated and with it came a most wonderous melody!
The gods were coming!
Celebrations rang out in the streets, masses were held and the billions of cult followers prayed to the stars.
They continued to pray even as the tyranid fleet descended on their world.
They sung and cheered as civilians leapt heartily into hastily grown digestion pools, unknowing of the fleet's abnormally small size, the severe wounds on the flanks of their bioships nor the reason they avoided devouring the subsumed astartes and orks.
Unaware of the massive imperial task force headed their way with three simple, brutal objectives:
Burn the heretic. Kill the mutant. Purge the unclean.
Pretty dominant by the one team. (No spoilers). Nice coordination, and the harassing by the stealthers was clutch. The Whirlwind was a clutch unit.
Guns glorious guns, lasguns and plasma;
Eating hotshot while troopers laugh at ya;
Guns glorious Guns, our tanks got all of them;
StormBlade's spit reduces you to phlegm!
Guns glorious guns; the VPs are counting down;
Guns so thick tyrants pout, marine cry and orks frown!
Nice guard win.
that marine color scheme is pure heresy
Those Plasma Devs seemed to be struggling (The AI) 19:12 you can see Devs start a shot and then cancel it they've done it multiple times in this match too and felt like it might those shots could have changed the tide of a fight
That Plasma Dev Indrid mentions does some pretty whacky heretic movement at 11:50 xD
Connie Lingus huh.

This is my absolute favourite version of IG. Just throw a billion soldiers into the meat grinder and crush them under the weight of your bodies
Cheesecake's Stormtrooper play was delicious.
People saying IG is overtuned, but I think blue team had plenty of options mid-late game to deal with IG roster, as they saw they were pumping full infantry.
There were plenty of options in early : storm shield from FC, devastators with heavy bolter, blob of 2 or 3 termagants with warrior & venom broods with synapse for tyranids, 3 even 4 fully upgraded shoota boys with Big Boss' banner for orks, then going.
And in mid-late, instead of wasting ressources on melee units and zoanthropes, getting carnifexes with barbed stranglers, flash gitz and/or battlewagon, and a LR to support the firing line.
Players tend to automatically think that you can't outshoot IG and have to go for melee, but you can mince a lot of models before having to retreat, having won the fight from sheer experience, and doing this in a row to preserve units and ressources.
Asmonbald fan haHAA
Hah you fell for Connie Lingus this time c:<
cool gard… nice
Those stormtroopers were so good in this game.
unit voices are too quiet
The explosion at 27:07 was just beautiful :')
This was bloody awesome to watch. Nice to see a more even match up with IG. Such firepower, such fun.
Thank you for nice cast.
lol connie lingus
seriously 3 imperial guard players and not 1 squad of catachan devils seen ?
