No TURN 8 again tonight… But there’s a Xmas Special!
December 1, 2011 by beerogre
It never rains but it pours! Despite our best efforts, we've been forced to cancel TURN 8 again tonight.
I'm afraid it's just one of those things, I've got something that really needs done, Warren has stuff... it always seems to happen on a Thursday!
Anyway... never mind... why don't we take this opportunity to discuss the TURN 8 Xmas Special?
What would you like to see?
Santa & Reindeer are optional... silly hats are not!
Please, please, please ensure that Darrell is wearing more than just his underpants and a Party hat, to many baubles for my liking! Other than that GW’s new Monsters and Blood in the Badlands, Corporation army list from Mantic (excited much), What was your favourite Christmas present? (I remember getting Necromunda after asking for 40k, very disapointed for all of 20 seconds until I started playing it!) Boxing day sales from retailers? I try and think of more…..
Make sure you have a Christmas tree…..this http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1011#i/2010/big/christmas_pilot_01.jpg
and this http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1012 from Scibor miniatures! (or naything else from them as they are great!!
The scibor tree bulbs are great! That’s the type of thing we need.
Boo!
Never mind, the euros collapsing, manchester united lost, so theres more important things to worry about.
Christmas special , you need to have gifts.
Lots of them.
And I think one of the competitions should be to tweet in if your username is that of a cartoon character whos arch nemesis was called nogbad the bad.
Not that I’m biased or anything.
Darrell has to be Santa and Sam an elf and Lloyd has to be Rudolf
I really hope Lloyd will skip dressing as Rudolf Hess this season. Think of what the neighbors will say 😉
Just don’t want to see Darrells santa sack…
The things people will do to watch I’m a celebrity…. ;-).
No Darrel with some fir tree sticking over his let’s say berries, baubles over his nipples, tinsle round his bum hole.
Apart from that just your usual tipsy banter.
I’d love a look forward at games coming out next year that have you guys (and us hopefully) excited.
How about:
Christmas Prizes!
Top 10 christmas gamers wish list?
Who’s been naughty and who’s been nice in the gaming world this year?
Lots of sherry!
Random filling mince pies?
A selection of nasty drinks, dice to see who drinks what?
Stocking fillers…
A selection of mini’s in santa’s sack, if you can reach in and identify the model without looking, then YOU’RE WINNER!
40k themed knitted jumpers… might have left this one too late… for this year
A Christmas Muppets style show tune!
Have you made one for this year yet?
Concept has been decided, filming will be next week…
Man that really does suck…was looking forward to it being home alone house sitting for my besy mate while him and his missus are sunning themselves in the maldives! Ahh well trawling youtube it will be 🙁
As for a christmas special…John doing 1 last painting vid would be good. I love Romain’s vids..but we need John doing some FoW stuff with all that cool history lesson along with it!
Like the idea for stocking filler gifts too!
have a live give away of 1 early christmas present to someone who can answer sometinhg on twitter
Chat about Blood in the Badlands, maybe a round up of what everyone’s working on over Christmas. Looking forwards to next year – what kind of stuff should we be looking out for. Games Workshop, Mantic, etc etc. Best rule-set of the year? Best model of the year – best painting competition overall winner?
All good to see an awesome Christmas special 🙂
Dare I propose a traktor mule give-away?
What?Too soon?
…
the good news is that im so knackered im pleased its been skipped this week
But i will miss the fun
hats may not be optional. NEITHER ARE CLOTHES! I remember the last holiday special…
@beerogre When you say Warren has “stuff” that comes up on Thursdays, is that code for his wife wont let him come out and play until his honeydos are completed?
Just let me know when you pick my entry for the Necron competition. 😀
I want to see Santa’s untamed north polar!
Im thinking Discworld Hogfather style pea take of Xmas.
Leave cheese out for the Nappy One and his evil elves. The dread pirate Cpt who delivers gaming goodness to you once a year….and the Beer Ogre who gives you WarmaHordes but steals your beer
I know there will be many top 10’s etc but how about the teams Xmas wish lists and what you are giving your favourite gamers for xmas (not sure how you avoid spoliers on that one 😉
