Stephen the Irishman: Him? That can´t be William Wallace! I´m Prettier than this man!
In order to find his Equal, and Irishman is forced to talk to God.
yes Father!…
The Almighty says don´t change the subject just get to the fookin Chopper
yes i know i need human interaction 😉
That Catachan Colonel is one awesome model and a great reference.
@warzan any chance off a link to the producer of your Kalax inserts??
it was in the xlbs 3 weeks ago.. maybe 4. eBay store
Cheers, found it ?
I wondered what had happened to Rebellion as I was reading an old miniature wargames the other day which had the basic rules in
Are the figures still 40mm
There was a ruleset out for prisoner of war games called Great Escape I think
Umm Franco Prussian was 1870
what am I thinking of then…
also no clue but none of ebobs are 40mm
I’ll find the magazine again and have a look
There was Prussian Austrian war that was either just before or just after the 7YW
First Schleswig War (1848–1851)
Carlist Wars?
After that I’m not sure
Y
I was thinking of a Robin Hood game which was 40mm
Only Scotland goes for a mythical national animal? I reckon the Welsh have strong opinions on this matter.
True but speaking as a Welshmen we tend to retain all strong opinions for the Six Nations, our Dragons aren’t Mythical we just fool everyone by referring to them as our dear Mother-in-law’s ?
You’re right! I was forgetting seeing them for real on that documentary Ivor the Engine 😉
??
Happy Weekender all. I’m tempted to back the Railroad Ink challenge as a Christmas present for my nephew who loves his trains. ??
Great to hear – hope you enjoy it!
happy weekender everyone.
Happy Weekender!

Very awesome statue 🙂
Yup Robert the Bruce an the William Wallace statue as well.
Awesome photography!
If you go on the tinternet you can see the statue’s from many angles.
This must mean…
It’s the Weekend!
Looking forward to the Hel interview…
why am I still awake watching the weekender….
It’s the Weekender!
@warzan never looked better mate! I wonder if anyone has updated the OTT Wiki to use your new picture, (the one with the blue eye shade)?
@avernos once again you’ve shown me some minis that are off the beaten path that I can’t live without. The eBoB minis are fantastic! I used to play ‘Paintball’ for a couple of decades, so I had to order the two team set. While there I snagged the ‘spaghetti western’ minis and also the ‘Mighty American Eagle’ ?, along with the larger Norman Spearman collection.
That’s no child catching car…. that’s the “Snag-A-Normie-Mobile”
Ahhh good shout
you will have to have a chitty chitty bang bang down the line now @warzan ?
Happy Weekender!
loved the show Guy’s.
Thanks for the show, see you on Sunday.
I live close to Dawkey, NO HE IS OU RS,so go away.
Personally, I will stay very far away from anything Mythic Games, their treatment of their EU non-french backers and their track record of incorrect (unplayable) rulebooks, lack of quality control and basically sending out alpha versions instead of playtested and working games being the reasons. I get that they probably pay some bills for you guys, but I wish you would be a bit more critical when picking partners you do commercials for… Please start doing background checks etc on these companies and then decide if you want to work together with them. I nowadays basically skip/ignore Kickstarter recommendations from… Read more »
OK let’s see if we can unpack this. Which kickstarters have you backed from them?
Personally? Luckily enough only Reichbusters. If you want to know the issues I’m referring to, check the issues -with the 1.0 and 1.5 rulebooks for JoA issues, -the severe delay on Solomon Kayne, -the whole Meeple Logistics disaster and -communication issues in Reichbuster, -the disastrous misprints & mispacks, -the bodged rulebook for Reichbusters. -How it’s impossible to pack Reichbusters back up decently after unpacking and unpunching it. All of this is widely known, all of this is well documented in several youtube reviews and in the Kickstarter comments sections on the kickstarters. Not even to mention how they treated their… Read more »
OK so there is quite a bit to unpack here. (And lets be clear here there does seem to be a bit of you taking offence on other peoples behalf a little – but I’m gonna take everything you say at face value and talk through them 🙂 ok?) 1) With the 1.0 and 1.5 rulebooks for JoA issues JOA was a massive project – hugely ambitious – in fact, I’m working through the boxes of it at the moment and it is frankly pretty incredible what they achieved in terms of deliverables of that project. Kickstarters on a project… Read more »
Heya, so first of all 2 things, thanks for taking the time to reply this thoroughly, second, I did not mean to attack your integrity, maybe that was perceived wrong or I could have formulated that a bit clearer, I do like you guys being in general positive about the industry. But I think that is sometimes to positive. So let’s get back to the points you made, as you suspected I don’t agree with a whole lot of them, even though some are good points. To the first point: JOA was a massive project and you’re quite right damned… Read more »
I have some eBob Normans undercoated black and ready for some paint, but since I tidied the dining room table (where I’m currently painting) I’ve no idea where the hell I put them! Lloyd should buy some, they are lovely and deserve 45 photos of how to paint the mail!
I reckon he did while others were chatting
Those Normans are very cool. I love that they are one piece as well – very cool.
he has enough Normans
Can you ever have enough Normans?
I sure hope the make new catachan models! The colonel looks so cool! I would squeeze my wallet for New IG!!!
It would be great to see them make a new set of plastic Catachans to match the Colonel…even if he is very limited.
Happy Saturday ……. and Waren meets mat is back?? Oh yeah baby
We couldn’t keep him away.
@avernos The spaghetti western minis are based on Eastwood (Joe) and Ramon in Fistfull of Dollars not The Good the Bad and the Ugly or For a Few Dollars More, so it’s right that Lee Van Cleef isn’t there. Be nice if they did sculpt from those films though.
Is it not from a few dollars more and that film ends with Van cleef as the father of the den squaring up to Ramon with the music playing from the watch. Which is why I would love to see him there long handled pistol ready
Pretty sure it’s Fistful,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxuVau6qiiw
but to be fair could be either
no you’re right I went back and watched them and he’s actually called Ramon in Fistful. For some reason I always think of the one gloved hand as being his schtick in A Few Dollars rather than in the original.
Why do I keep coming here again and again ?
I know now : to watch Warren do the mat thing !
Keep up the good work, guys.
A lot of interesting stuff in this episode. I’m especially liking the ebob and Claymore castings stuff.
