TURN 8 – Gen Con 2011, Carnevale and lots of Chat… not just from Warren!
August 11, 2011 by beerogre
So another TURN 8 ends and this time we nearly stuck to our plan for an hour long show.
What did we cover?
Well there was the Forge Father release... Gen Con 2011... our Monthly Painting Competition and the mysterious Carnevale!
I hope you guys enjoyed watching us as much as we enjoyed making it... and stay tuned, if you want to know why we're trying to get the show down to an hour!
If you know of any "bricks & mortar" hobby stores that might be interested in a collaboration with Beasts of War, then tell the owner to email warren @ beastsofwar.com (with no spaces obviously) or you can send us a link to their website so that we can drop them a line.
Ahh Turn 8.
How I missed thee.
whilst mad max is being recreated outside , I can stay safely at home and watch some slightly drunken men toalk about toy soldiers.
the world is right again.
That reminds me: I need to get to my local second-hand sporting goods store and pick up some American football shoulderpads. Then, when the Mad Max-style armageddon comes (any day now) then I’ll just spraypaint the pads black, shave my head and my after-the-apocalypse outfit will be all sorted. Then I just need to get into Lord Humungus’ warband.
Looking forward to Turn 8 tonight.
But will you go the full baldness of the leader, or the mohican of the deranged sidekick?
Given the youths are taking over here in the UK (well, to be fair, its just England, the other three are too busy laughing at us after years of self righteousness) , I’m thinking full on black shoulderpads is a mistake, make me look a bit too old, I’m going for a nice blue to match my eyes.
I take it that you have aspirations of becoming a berzerker
So now that Lloyd got a taste of staring in On the Table, will he let Warren has his hosting duties back tonight or will BoW turn into Game of Thrones this Turn 8??
Don’t think there is an age rating high enough for a Beasts of War/Game of Thrones type bloodbath lol.
They dont have the female cast to make it a full crossover lol.
That’s true lol, but there is always the wig option….although on second thoughts the thought of dressing up and Darrell just entered my mind and I need to go lie down for a bit lol.
they have the manbreasts for it….sad so do I
Can’t wait to see more of the Forge Fathers, hope there’s news on the other Warpath models 🙂
Also is Twitch Tv the place to be, or Justin.tv?
Justin.tv has transferred us to the more game centric Twitch.tv
If you go to Justin.tv it will redirect you, so don’t worry.
Cheers, much appreciated.
Right, i got beers in the fridge, a large selection of whisky on the shelf, and some miniatures to paint, im all set for tonight.
I miss seeing the gang and Darrell’s mischief making live. It has become ritual for me.
Looking forward to it guys. Although at my age a month seems to go by in the blink of an eye.
Having dinner then off to get a beer to watch the show with.
Whisky prepared, headphones adjusted and the comfy chair is also ready. Time to enjoy the show. 🙂
fantastic episode guys, very enjoyable. I guess ill contact you about my up-and-coming wargame in a few weeks, allthough I’m kinda nervous about that.
awesome night all
Great episode guys, and thanks for picking me as a winner! 🙂
Indeed, feel free to send all cash and paypal donations. 😉
I came in on the last 1/2 hour, will we be able to watch this later?
I enjoyed the show only comment I have to make is about the volume of the encouraging hoorays, please understand that while I personally do not object with them turn 8 is at 00:00is around here and people are sleeping and the volume change is too big for headphones.
totally agree with the last post
Gee, I actually think that the above comments are well past the level of nit picky. The hoorays were a bit loud: good on you! Having fun is what this is about, right?
Having fun without waking up the neighbourhood at 1 in the morning is much appreciated though.
Speech volume is low and the volume must be high to hear them, Hoorays volume is quite loud and given the speakers volume is high it gets even louder, I know I would not like to be waken up by a loud hooray and I am sure the neighbours share the same feeling.
I live on a farm in the middle of nowhere and I think TURN 8 isn’t loud enough!
Wait a minute, what’s this! I can turn the volume UP on the speakers!!! WOW!!!
I wonder if you can turn it down too. Well wadda ya know, you can!
Now I can have the sound really loud when there’s no one about, or turn it down when the kids are sleeping.
Science eh! Whoever invented it should be burned as a witch.
Thanks for the sarcasm, unfortunately the point is the minimum volume I need to hear them is enough for the hoorays and shouts to be too loud, sorry I thought that was evident, I will try to be more specific in the future.
Glad to hear you live in a healthy area, were your activities have no impact on others and you can enjoy life as you like, unfortunately I am not that lucky.
Did I hear right? they found a brown star behind uranus??
