spacegoat posted:Yeah, looks like a lot of other dissatisfied customers are coming out of the woodwork over at Warseer. There's also some drama with Miniwargaming soliciting positive BTP stories from their paying subscribers. Colour me shocked and amazed, that after Miniwargaming has attended Vahalla: The Ultimate Wargamers Retreat, hosted by BTP for the last few years; that they would try to artificially prop up BTP and its lovely business habits/work ethic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcuM1dgs90k

Ugh BlueTablePainting Painting Commission Studio Showcase from Miniwargaming Top Comment: Oh dear... I guess this is why you sent a message out to members of the Vault only asking for good reviews of BTP. A biased advertisement video that doesn't focus on the numerous pit falls of ordering from BTP. You need to weigh up the negatives along with the positives if you want anyone to listen to you. The biggest issue is the fact that they assembly line your army through 2-3 different painters if one person can't handle it alone, so it's RARELY consistent. Three different painters paint in three different ways. A key example of this is when Shawn had his studio Tau painted, he noted several times that his own painters messed up the shading on his army and got them to repaint entire models until they got it right. Why did the guy with his Chaos Dwarfs (who was a paying customer and not an army destined for Shawns collection) not get the same treatment before his models were shipped? Some of his STILL had primer showing on them even after he'd asked to correct them. A lot of people have issues with BTP and a lot of people don't. That's the nature of a business that offers a personal service. But sending out a newsletter to your fans/vault asking for "positive reviews/experiences with BTP" with no mention of negatives is a step too far. Not to mention BTP is going to put extra effort into any army commisioned by MWG because they are WAY more than just a customer. They're an advertising oppertunity with 151,000 subscribers. You can drat well extra effort was put into it. So please don't do lopsided, biased, paid advertisements. That's not the reason we watch the channel.

moths posted:I really don't think they're trolling. I think they're exalting brain-damaged misconceptions and are itching for the opportunity to start a dialogue about the clean Wehrmacht and how "Actually, both sides had heroes..." and really Stalin was the villain, and I have some recollection of the "artist" saying that the 40k empire of man was a fascist regime and so using nazi iconography seemed appropriate. Less, "Hitler had some good ideas", and more "fascists are fascists so why not use potentially offensive imagery"?

He's gotten hate mail from other sellers for calling his minis "professional painted" because he's setting buyer expectations too high for other "professional painters". Tell him to use Artisan Painted. Or Master Level Painted.

goatface posted:I just want to put this here. It's maybe NSFW? http://www.buffersmodelrailways.com/products/scenery-9/figures/adult You know why these are great and slave girl objective is awful? Because a train guy would hide one or two of these models in a huge city set up and it would be his own little joke rather than being so horribly obvious with an objective marker. Admittedly, yes a train guy could do a whole diorama with them, but I suspect that a subtle "Lovers in action" set would be put in the upper floor of a house on a bigger set up.

Drake_263 posted:It doesn't help that battletech grognards are the worst grognards and everytime someone comes up with a better-looking modernized mech design, you have basement-dwelling neckbeards rising to the ramparts about how those old designs have SPIRIT and CHARM and how the new models are OFFENSIVE TO THE SPIRIT OF THE GAME. So like GW grognards that poo poo on AoS and laud the old "charming" models of yesteryear? I'm one of those people btw. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug.

Why are all your models almost prone on their bases? True LOS motherfucker.That is why TLOS is poo poo. The Infinity silhouettes are much better for resolving this type of thing.  And here is why they use silhouettes. All 4 guys are the same unit type, but with TLOS you might imagine one of them has a minor advantage.

ineptmule posted:Those shieldmaidens actually look pretty great. Is this SAGA any good? I'm hearing about it more and more. SAGA is pretty good. Some RNG fuckery if the dice you need don't turn up on your turn, but I like it. I will say that the Rus Vikings are a little OP, but if you deny them rage you can win fairly handily. Check your PMs. JcDent posted:Far as I've heard, it's p. rad. The army building rules are pretty simplistic and the meat of the game is in a special dice rolling table (unique for each faction) that I can't explain. Not the most polished presentation, but it does OK explaining the rules: How to Play SAGA. Saga dice, battle boards and troop activation are in episode 2.
