Televisions of Victory: Thousand Sons vs Blood Angels

February was a busy month for battle reports - I'm back on the telly!

Featured in Moarhammer Deployment Zone battle report: Thousand Sons vs Blood Angels. 1750 points Visions of Victory.

We'll be back after these important messages...


My third filmed battle report. This time, I took on Liam from the Moarhammer channel - a battle reporter, podcaster, raconteur and general all-around hobby hero - as he played the Blood Angels (painted by Golden Daemon winner Martin Waller, which was worth the trip in itself).

Moarhammer and Winters SEO (of previous filmed batreps) are partnered up to produce the on-demand Deployment Zone TV. So having faced Abbott in the previous battle, I thought I should have a go at Costello.

Now, I understand that not everyone likes a paywall, but given that I've now featured twice on this channel, a single month's subscription of £5 means you can see the Thousand Sons in full technicolour glory for just £2.50 a battle (and dozens of other battles that don't feature me - which may be more appealing).

Regular readers may spot that I have the same battle mat.
Effectively giving me home field advantage.

We randomised a new Chapter Approved mission and got "Visions of Victory" - a suitably confusing maelstrom mission for the Thousand Sons to take on the hated Astartes. It was 1750 each, and we gave the beta bolter drill a try.

If you do decide to sign up, and want to rush straight to this report, here it is. If not, I'll see you on the next free one!
