I dont suppose there ever is the chance of turn 8 going back to 8 o clock?

Yay turn 8.

Skyplussed t steps reunion so the wifes occupied, meaning a peaceful night in front of the computer.

So, my question to you guys, does the Necron stuff give an indication to where 6th edition is going? Its highly likely it was written in tandem with the new ruleset , as much as the inevitable space marine one that will release with 6th has been.

Cant wait guys. This would have been the perfect week to test out live call-ins. You could have invited a few internet gaming personalities on the show and asked them to explain their recent allegations. Either way, this should be a good show….I expect there will be some pretty heavy traffic….

Recent allegations?

From the description at the top of the page…. “It’s been an eventful week, we’ve seen Necrons… and we’ve seen accusations and speculation spattered across the internet until it resembles a toilet bowl after a good night on the scrumpy!”

There is a thread here…..but it’s probably best to just wait till tonight to find out more.

Keep on doing what you do BoW. The guys over at Spikey Bits are delusional. Me and my gaming group went ga ga over the leak and I can’t wait to get my greedy mits on those Metal Zombies o’ Doom. Love what you guys do for the hobby.

agreed. Luckily I had just come from the bathroom before watching or who knows what would’ve happened. Makes me wish I had a dog to blame it on… just in case.

Keep on doing what you do. You’ve given me an exit from the GW tunnel (vision) I was in for years and exposed me to alot of games I didn’t know existed and have almost single handedly returned me to wargaming on a weekly basis through your channel.

Oh and btw: I like the old set up better with the recliners etc.

Warren’s beer looks like a NecroSOYLENTGREENrod. Nice touch. The new table looks like a mac, but doesn’t hide your legs. I can see your legs jumping with pleasure at certain minis or just bobbing up and down. The table does let you display more and perhaps show more, but it’s less homey feeling, and therefore, I’d chime in for the old set.

Another cracking evening of games related nonsense. I’ve always dreamt of a world where gaming received the same media attention as football. Turn 8 is a big step in the right direction. 🙂

The new layout really works well imo. Not as cosy as before but having everyone around the table kept everyone involved throughout the show.

Keep up the great work 🙂

Awesome show again guys 🙂 Some people just want to be a bunch of old misery guts and you’ve risen above them like champeeeeons lol 🙂 To crap on the stuff you do is a piss-poor way to treat a bunch of guys trying to show us all the new stuff to do with games and miniatures and tell us about games we’d never have heard of before, if it weren’t for this site. To me, BoW is like watching a Christmas special of your favourite TV show, every week, and just keeps getting better and better… so far lol… Read more »

Dear Warren and BoW staff and Crew, I wanted to say I felt your response to ‘Spiky Bits’ personal attacks to your Club and Business were more professional then I think I would have been in your position. You took an attack from some nameless face behind a computer screen and responded in a very frank and professional manner. I do not know that his rambling and baseless conjecture even deserved a response, but you handled yourself very well. I am proud to call myself a fan of yours and if I ever make it across the pond I will… Read more »

Well I ran into Bols peddlers or what have you, here months ago. It was obvious atleast to me that people were not only angry but extremely selfish. In reference to the success that Beasts of war was having despite the loss of content and other struggles as well. John going to school, and that alone is like trying to be Sammy Hagar then taking the place of David Lee Roth in Van Halen. In my opinion, I noticed people attacking anyone that was excited about the rise of this really cool little cyber hang out. Then the attacks once… Read more »

Hey BoW staff I do applaud your professionalism in your response to “Spiky Bits”. On the other hand I am not in the video making business and I do not have to be professional so here is my rebuttal . ” Spiky bits You spew so much drivel it looks like you have sh!te your diaper and its starting to come out of your mouth.

This must be the same chap who proclaimed how damaging the leak was to retailers on Dakka. He was blaming BoW for ruining his toyshop I simply don’t follow his line of argument. First of all BoW is reporting on gaming news. It is what they do here. Who in their right mind would not go public with the gaming scoop of the year? Would a newspaper or TV show given an equivalent leak just sit on it and keep zip? As for hurting retailers I have not a clue how that is supposed to work despite the several posts… Read more »

Great show guys! Keep up the good work and don’t let the naysayers get to you. It is obvious to anyone that spends time on your site that it is put together by people who care. You have fans all over the world and provide a great service to the hobby! There is lots of room for everyone who wants to be a part of this community. The following is my personal philosophy so please feel free to gloss over. I spend much time on many other like minded sites, (especially my Canadian compatriots MiniWarGaming) and of course Boardgamegeek). I… Read more »

Thanks, I actually created that music-genre after seeing the necron codex cover back in 2002 and wondering what their voices and soundtrack would be like. I’m such a nerd lol

All this drama is beyond lame – reeks of jealousy and bitter resentment to me. If these dudes want to “stick it to the man” then how about bashing some of GW’s business techniques? If anything BoW is exactly what is needed. They champion the “little guy”, and I can’t tell you how many games I would never of heard of and supported if it wasnt for BoW talking about them – and with them getting a TV show, this gives even more promotion to the smaller companies. Hardly evil lol Besides, the reason BoW works so well is because… Read more »
