To boldly be eaten where no grot has been eaten before!
Well you know I was threatening to make some videos and poo poo? Well on Friday I finally got a router, got on the internet, and now I've edited my first video and put it on the youtubes.

Things I've learnt - be better in setting up the shot.

What mistakes am I making apart from that?

Now we all know why they call you lovely.

I'll be doing a bunch of Shadow War things but dipping into 40k (mainly painting and terrain).

I've painted up some terrain and filmed myself doing it. I just need to edit it to not be two hours long.

I'll be doing a review on one of the Zveda kits, and a lot on Doctor Who from Warlord Games as someone picked up a copy from Salute for me.

What's with Overwatch avatar-havers not having working eyes?

The dude he's painting isn't wearing a helmet, for starters. The bolter is angled differently and held lower and the legs are wider apart and his chest is facing forwards, not to the side.

40k is getting popular at my flgs again. Is there an army out there that gets space magic? Back in the day I wanted to play imperium psychics but there never seemed to be a viable list.

You can use Imperial Agents and bring a ton of cheap ML1 Psykers to act as a big battery for whatever Psykers you end up going with (Astropaths are like 25 points and you can just add a bunch to your army using their formation).

Space Marines can do pretty well at being space wizards with their 3-5 librarian formation that shares powers and whatnot and is also Battle Brothers with the above Imp Agents. Plus with Angels of Death you have access to the new Astarted psychic powers which include stuff like being able to move terrain around.

Do not buy anything based on this. The entire ruleset is changing. None of this will exist much beyond 8-12 weeks from now. :psyduck:

The rules changes are going to directly hurt the army of beautiful boys I am working on now, but i am still very excited by this new edition. Sometimes unfortunate things happen that lead the way to huge improvements. Can anyone here that is not rabidly anti GW really say that their game is likely going to get much better?

It is ok to be scared. But if 8th isn't a game you are interested in maybe it is time to let go? :)

Hi I am worried that cool stuff like Dark Eldar will disappear but I'm also glad that theyre burning 7th to the ground and I will trade everything for the chance that Orks might be playable again.

It will probably be poo poo but 7th is poo poo already so who cares. They arent blowing up the setting, thats good enough for me to wait and see(tm)

They said all models will be compatible so nothing's getting brettonia'd at least.

Dark Eldar are mentioned explicitly on the 8th placeholder site? I guess they could do anything but I don't think anything is getting the Squatted. Glad to see Cult Mechanicus and Skitarii placed into one faction, finally.

The same site already has Death Guard listed as a separate faction from plain CSM. Hype! :zombie::hf::black101:

What was the deal with Bretonnians, anyways? It's kind of been my understanding that they hadn't really gotten support for years prior to the AoS release and then got clowned in the end times books. I guess I'd be worried if I played Sisters of Battle, but lol if you play that army with high expectations at this point

They got no new releases for a while but were rumored to be slated to be used as the starter army for the new edition of fantasy and have plastic kits similar to isle of blood made for this. Then AoS happened and that was all scrapped. I have nothing to substantiate it and there is likely someone more informed to go into more detail.

12 years since a rules update 8 years since a model update as of the start of End Times Nagash. Wood Elves had waited a similar time and were a top seller.
