Editing this game was a dream come true. Grew up with the movies and the strategy battle game. Hope everyone has fun watching it 😊

Gandalf: "Look to my coming on the movement phase of the 12th turn, at the roll of 5 look to the that corner of the table over there"
-
“Dude we should run this bomb into Gandalf”Best quote I heard the whole video
-
"I want to know what happens when you pull Aragorn's arms off. Call him Armagone." Such a great line.
-
Them giving Gimli a box at 13:41 is iconic. This was amazing.
-
AMAZING GAME!
On a separate note, I love Nick and his enthusiasm, but if I ever hear him say Ara-gone again I may explode 😂 -
This is incredible guys! I am so happy to see more creators covering Middle Earth SBG. Games like this is what Wargaming exists for!
-
The nominative determinism of having Christopher Lee controlling the Uruk Hai is beautiful
-
Just wanna say, this is the 3rd search option for "Battle of Helm's Deep" on YT and I hope everyone involved enjoyed this as much as we did watching it.
-
It's Aragorn, ARAGORN, ARAGORN!!!!!!! Still a great video, can't wait for more.
-
Man "dice tell stories" has never been more true. You guys have knocked it out of the park with these special events this year, congratulations guys.
-
Take a shot every time they say "Deepening" instead of "Deeping"
-
Aragorn: "GONDOR CALLS FOR AID!"
Nick: "FOR THE GREATER GOOD!... Er... um... I mean... Tau vs Uruk-Hai? -
You guys excel in what most of other battle reports fail:
1. Great camera work! Often it's just painful to watch battle reports due shaky camera, plus your dramatic camera angles and FXs add such a nice flavor
2. Good editing and humor makes really enjoyable to watch (which is a challenge for such a long battle like this)
3. Explaining the rules is very useful for beginners
More Middle-earth content, please! -
I'm seriously impressed with how many movie moments they managed to hit here. Hope we get more Middle Earth on the channel, I love 40k but I think ME has the best rules and game flow of all the GW products.

R.I.P. Bernard Hill - Théoden, King of Rohan.
"He was strong in life. His spirit will find the way to the halls of his fathers." -
LOTR minis were the perfect gateway mini for our generation. Selling them at places like Barnes & Noble made miniature wargaming much more accessible. I also started with LOTR, played 40k for a decade+ (almost 2 now) and have gotten back into LOTR as a painting project now that I have more $$$ to spend than I did as a 14 yo. Great video, actually watched it with my kids who loved it.
-
So excited to see more Middle Earth on this channel!
-
I have the biggest smile possible right now, not only was it cinematic (Theoden's Charge) fun, and excellently edited it made me want to watch the trilogy again!

this was such a fun video. From Nick and Steve constantly saying "Aragon" instead of "Aragorn", to the Rohan soldiers heroically jumping across the gap to defend the wall, it was just a total rollercoaster!
