@warzan, you hit the nail on the head, un-elected individuals are running the EU democracy has gone out the window. And Brussels is just full of bureaucrats and red tape.
The great experiment needs to be assessed and back on track
multiple referendums because the people didn’t vote the ‘correct way’ have happened before, look at us (Ireland)
The EU Commission – this unelected body – is equivalent to the civil service. They make laws based on what the heads of state want and the MEPs then vote on those. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-23488006
So it is democratic, but no-one cares about MEPs enough, and so by that they perceive it as undemocratic.
@warzan also as a block, the EU does more for scientific funding than the US or China. The regeneration of Liverpool and Manchester would not have happened without EU funding. As a scientist I am pro-Eu having also been able to work in Germany at research position and had to chance to vote while living there too.
Well, then you can use some of the gargantuan drove of money you’ll save from not paying a racket level membership fee and use it for science. Besides, science grants don’t magically appear, they are paid for by member states. Seeing as the UK pays MUCH more than what it gets in return UK science funding will be just fine. I understand you worrying over science grants but the rest of us, who are not scientists, also worry about sovereignty, the deah of the fishing industry, the alarming federalisation of Europe, the wish of Merkel and her ilk to drown… Read more »
we have a thread for this stuff chaps – we very deliberately split this out, so please use the thread 🙂
Yes, I saw that after making my comment. Feel free to move/delete it!
so why are they voting for TTIP where the company’s have more power to than will ever have to do what & when they want including suing the country if the accountants say they calculated that more profits should have been made than they actually did make ? @doctorether
as a whole the irish MEP’s are a bunch of useless, incompetent twats. Who’s political careers are coming to an end within their party, or no one wanted them here.
Not wanting to bring politics into my hobby as I like to use my hobby to escape all the crap that the EU has become. I’m all for leaving the EU and hopefully the rest of the European countries see this to take back control.
A single market to trade is a good thing for all of us, but to have laws passed by unelected people who have no invested interest in country is a step to far.
Guys, keep the brexit stuff to the forum thread please, some folk rightly don’t care and don’t want it interrupting their cool hobby stuff 🙂
I unfortunately cannot exercise my right to vote as I failed to realise that not only would Northen Ireland end its registration date a week earlier than the rest of the U.K., but it is also the only UK country that doesn’t have an online registration, needing you to print out and fill out a form and post a physical copy, which can take well over a week to get back from Japan.
Northern Ireland ran out of internet it seems. Quick, send speckled Jim with a refill!!!
Great update, looking forward to the Gates of Antares campaign.
I really think that political comment should be kept to other places. I personally have not supported the site as a means to broadcast political opinions.
Perhaps the Masons have it right?
-No Politics
-No Religion
Agreed 🙂 This is why we stripped it out and just stuck it in the forum 🙂
Keep the non hobby stuff safely tucked in there – unless we think it will interfere with the price of our toy soldiers!!!! 😉
It will interfere with the price of our toy soldiers.
Leopards! Damn it! Did you guys get those pre-order, or are they available. I’ve been eagerly awaiting these. 😀
Is there a big following for Gates of Antares? It just seems to me that it has not really hit the big time yet. So is now the right time to do a campaign?
This is Warlords campaign, we are providing the underlying platform, advice and help – but this is their baby 🙂
We’ll obviously be talking about it when cool stuff happens!!
Ah fair enough that makes more sense:-)
I think coverage like this can greatly increase the number of players for a game. I think Infinity has benefited hugely from the generous BoW coverage, campaigns, unboxings etc. Hopefully GoA will get a boost as well =)
One could argue that it is exactly why a campaign like this needs to happen.
The bootcamps, the weekly series that focus on a specific game and this campaign …
all of them are tools that help grow a system and provide fresh meat.
The fact that they’re doing this with Warlord only increases the value as a recruiting tool for new gamers.
Really jealous!!! I want the West German stuff for TY NOW as well..
Dammit; I don’t think I’m going to have my Freeborn ready in time for the Xilos Campaign! 🙁
Personnally, I don’t want to hear or read another word about this referendum on this website. It is up to anyone on their private page or channels to spread their own opinions. This website will not provide enough sensible information on the subject anyway, and its audience is far from exclusively UK-based, making it irrelevant. Political discussion is just not what we do here, in my opinion. Believe me, I have my own views on the Brexit matter, even though I’m a Frenchman… perhaps because I am a Frenchman : we have opinions on everything anyway ! But I will… Read more »
This would have been better in the forum topic that actully contained the discussion, that wasn’t included in this video. 2 quick thkngs to consider… 1) Vlog is behind the scenes content and a reflection of whats going on in BoW and with us personally, the referendum looms over us all and is a topic thats chatted about. 2) we cut the topic out and put it into the backstage discussion forums as it was basically a call out for info from a group of folk who many i consider to be friends (after 8 odd years of doing this)… Read more »
My only comment would be that the title of the vlog should not have lead with the brexit word 🙂
Ah fair enough that makes more sense:-) oh you changed it…lol
Hmm bloody phone
I had no idea their regulations affected BoW as well. Well, that’s it! *grabs pitchfork and marches/wades/swims towards Brussles*
I agree… but I don’t think this was the best way. Also, there’s been the death of an MP, it makes me quite uneasy.
The campaign might bring some interest to Gates of Antares but I will have to wait until the 40K, Bolt action, Malifaux or saga campaign to get involved.
But you got the Leopards early, that should count for something 😉
good luck with you most awesome campaign system and may the next be a game that I have or are interested in. 🙂
Here is something I thought I would never say, I want to Play West Germans too.
warren on caffein! love it!
@warzan with the EV thing & the football the weekender will be the only thing worth watching so please don’t cancel the normal shows.
