Juhu again weekender. The best that gives in the week and in the hard time. Greetings from Switzerland Stay healthy and hope that everything will be ready soon
Gerry needs to trim that beard, just shape it up a bit. Also, I’m thinking on buying KoW Shadows in the north Starter Set, I never played KoW but do any of you know whether I could also play Vanguard with the miniatures included in the box?
Thank you for your work during this crazy times, it cheers people up I’m sure!
nope, far too lazy to do that 🙂
But yes you can play vanguard with the minis in the box you can download basic lists and the rules here https://www.manticgames.com/mantic-games-free-rules/ Although there are more options available to both factions
Ooh, I hope I win!
Thanks for continuing to deliver excellent content despite the apocalypse.
I think you forgot the “For Gods sake stop putting us all to shame with your output” award that I think @panzerkaput has already won
I thought I said that, was It cut from the final edit?
I might have nodded off during that bit
You did @avernos
Great timing as our COmbat Mission games are on a bit of a hiatus right now!
That 1½ hour was over to quick
Well I finally bought Mortarion and now thinking about an airbrush. Thanks guys
Took me a long time to commit to a airbrush mainly because I was worried I’d overspend then muck everything up. Finally got a reasonably priced standard as my first 0.3mm airbrush from the online store here and it’s great. I use it for undercoating, zenith highlighting and I’m getting more confident the more I use it. It helped that I watched the beginners airbrush tutorials with John that you’ll find here on OTT. Worth a watch they helped me a lot. It does take some practice at first but when you order and your airbrush arrives you want to… Read more »
i just got my first airbrush about a month ago, an Iwata Neo. Totally worth it, so much fun. Besides the case of base coating I’ve found getting transitions and highlights down is a little tricky to nail down but when I do its so rad. Oh and def get a mask. The thinner/flow improver fumes and paint particles are kinda brutal.
The Astartes fan film is just all kinds of epic!
I’m really looking forward to even more pf this.
What’s the best wargame for newcomers?
big question I have two questions.
What would your favourite genre/period be?
eg Fantasy, Sci-fi, English Civil War
How big a game would you like to play?
eg small skirmishes of 1-10 models or massive games of hundreds/thousands of figures
One you can find people to play with is always handy. Maybe check out the local groups/clubs/stores and see what people are playing in your area.
This is the most important advice when picking a game to get into. Doesn’t matter how easy a game is to pick up, or start, or how much you love the genre/models whatever. It’s a massive pain to build a local community from scratch.
Good to see my hero, Steve Harris, on the show. I remember reading an interview and Iron Maiden guitarist, Dave Murray, admitted that they used to stuff socks down the stripey spandex to try and impress the ladies.
The Sweet only ever wanted to go on top of the pops as they wanted to sleep with Pans People
Our good friday goodness.
Just back from my daily exercise and now relaxing with the weekender and a cup of tea.
Gaming Easter weekend does start now with Weekender and Tomorrow it’s Paint all the mini’s virtual Con.
You guys watching Tiger King over there? I got family in the Dallas to Oklahoma area so it was a lot of fun.
Loving the show lads keep it up!
Not loving all this free time I have & no Battletech Clans minis to paint though ?
I am actually looking forward to each show. Kind of the hobby input highlight of the week, both Friday and Sunday. Keep the show going. And keep safe.
We need daily weekenders until this lockdown malarkey is over.
Always great to listen to whilst painting!
happy weekender peoples everywhere.
Guys, thanks for opening up backstage to everyone, very nice perk during these times.
Time for some painting and weekender 😀
Great update guys. Stay safe and game on!
A great way to start the weekend!
