Happy Birthday sir, thank you for inspiring me to play in my first formal event. It was way outside of my comfort zone and I definitely was outmatched. I proudly managed to wooden spoon the event and had 5 great games with absolute champions of the community. Thank you for your content and your honest coverage of this nutty scandal.
I have a conker related question. There was once a British company that made video games, that company was called Rare. They made cute games for a Japanese company called Nintendo. One of those cute games was called "Conker's Bad Fur Day". The titular Conker is a squirrel. Is his named for these conkers, being a British cultural phenomenon?
The fact that a self-imposed “King” could control the CWC with an iron fist (or in this case steel conker) makes me worry about the state of the modern game…
Wait until Rob gets into last years chess drama where one player was accused to use a remote controled vibrating buttplug to receive morse code by his coach on which line to play.
As someone from the country.. I’m shocked by the allegations against my fellow green belt occupiers! Disgusting behaviour by this fellow greengrass enthusiast! Organisation committee scandal. It’s like fifa and sepp blatter but on a bigger scale!!
Finally. We are getting to the heart of things. Thank you for bravely tackling the issues that matter. The Honest Conker channel will get a follow here.
Having the steel conker as a joke is like having a set of rigged dice you always take to warhammer tournaments but you just never use them it is just all for fun. (Yeah right.)
Is this some veiled reference to something that happened in the 40k scene? In either way, I appreciate Rob's dedication to the gag, got a good chuckle out of this.
As someone from the English countryside, I am offended and yet have to agree that we are weird and do love a good field fare with tractors and farm equipment on show
With the next U.S. presidential election less than 2 weeks away. It's reassuring to see that bonkers conkers drama that rivals the drama of the election is occurring across the pond. Really puts things into perspective
The Honest Wargamer EU has been hit!?! Happy B day Rob. Probably a bit late by the upload tbf. Edit- … I cannot tell what is satire here… at all LOL “Not a children’s game… BBC mistaken of course” This just keeps going! King konkor hates the poor! “Obliterating his opponents nuts with one hit…” This is amazing Rob lol. Final edit- “konkors meets fight club” Omg my sides lol
Love your content bud! Been following all your 4th ed content. i've played aos for a while but I'm a 40k main, mainly play aos for fun (only because i dont have space in my brain for 2 comp games) and i run a lot of 40k events, but really want to do aos events too, i tried to run one and there was a golden ticket at the event, loads of prizes and food provided both days and it was 64 man max. But only 4 tickets got sold, is there particular things that aos players look for in tournaments that could entice more players to come along? as you cover a lot of events i'd be interested to hear your take on "what makes an aos event". longshot but thought id ask XD
Rob please remeber that non british people read and follow you and won't appreciate your sardonic sublime dark british humor and think you are telling the truth ......i men for god's sake they believe Abbadon is the bad guy in the Lore !!
USA here, you'll never conker us.
Indeed. Some random American just showed up and won part of the tournament.

This is what im here for!! Im so glad you had fun!
It's weird that the body he's part of cleared him of all cheating.... Sounds like its a fair and balanced review of the evidence.
*checks calendar*
Definitely not April Fools

I think you cracked it mate 100%
this is just nuts ...

Thats so funny to me, because all of that is pueely conjecture bc it was a younger player who won, and therefore must have cheated somehow

EXACTLY
I laughed so hard I nearly followed through on a fart. "There are 2 types of people who live in the countryside" - this is true, so very true.
Finally. We are getting to the heart of things. Thank you for bravely tackling the issues that matter. The Honest Conker channel will get a follow here.
Ive been waiting for this since.i saw the bbc article weeks ago. To be fair to the young lad fighting unfair is very British
Carrying around a steel conker should be as disqualifying as carrying weighted dice at a AoS Tournament.
"I only use it to amuse children"
Or the same as carrying around and using a steel conker at an AoS tournament.
Having the steel conker as a joke is like having a set of rigged dice you always take to warhammer tournaments but you just never use them it is just all for fun. (Yeah right.)

This is the conktent I did not know I needed but I did. My world is biggened.
Happy Birthday!
Thanks buddy
Everything alright over there on your island?
Please keep us updated on new developments.
These are quite serious allegations! 🧐
finally the conktent we been asking for
Oooh so that's where the name of Conker from the game Conker's Bad Fur Day comes from ! Makes senses since the studio Rare is English !
🤣Love it - but also, some thought provoking points made, and excellent summary of the apparent and baffling sociology of the English countryside.
Happy birthday Rob!!
God bless you, Rob. Have you considered running for king? You would be a fair and just ruler.
Happy Birthday Mister Rob The Honest wargamer XXXXXXX🎂
Bilbo did "have some skill at Conkers, if you must know". 😆
Glad I clicked this and stayed till the conklusion

England used to rule the world and now this?!
Okay, that's nuts!
With the next U.S. presidential election less than 2 weeks away. It's reassuring to see that bonkers conkers drama that rivals the drama of the election is occurring across the pond. Really puts things into perspective
This video makes me wanna quit AoS and focus on a new game.
Happy birthday Rob! Hoping for many more to come!
I am French, living in Spain and having lived in many countries. I have never EVER heard of the game of conker, not even of the word "conker" :D
I can't believe I watched this whole video, and now feel invested in competitive conkers
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROB
Happy birthday, hope you get some good cake.
My middle school head teacher was a legend. I think he had one last 2 years at one point.
Happy Birthday from Germany
Happy Bday Rob! 🎉🍻
The Honest Wargamer EU has been hit!?!
Happy B day Rob. Probably a bit late by the upload tbf.

“Not a children’s game… BBC mistaken of course”

Conker? I barely know her!
The WCC scandal has been the biggest news story in my mind for the last week, and it's been glorious.
Happy Birthday Rob ....
Happy BDay my friend 🍺🍻
Wtf ist this Episode xD
Hope seein you doin Stand Up soon, rob!
Happy bornt day!!
Get that bday freaky deaky!!!
Hear me out:
Fantasy has Blood Bowl…
Age of Sigmar NEEDS Age of Conker…
Pick your favorite mini and bash ‘em up!!!
I have never seen that in canada
British people must not have conkered the world enough
I had no idea. Nothing like this in Canada
This is 100% the most British thing I have ever seen
What is the policy at the cwc about the use of a time split device?
Happyyyy Birthday (month!!)
Hi Rob conker is from a Horse Chestnut tree (and poisonous) where a Sweet Chestnut is a different nut and edible.
Are there any conkers in Rascaltown?
Came for CONKtroversy
Wasnt disappointed
Big conk is coming for you now, protect Rob at all costs!
No kings, only conkerers! Down with the chestnut bourgeoisie!!!
Just a jolly narrative chestnutter checking in
Why doesn't William the Conkerer play? Absolutely Nuts.
Imagine wanting to win a board game so badly you cheat. Imagine that, because I can't.
[number of downvotes] got their nuts obliterated by this video
in germany we call them Kastanienmännchen
That's a Chelsea pensioner rob, not a beefeater!
This is such a nonsense and I love it
Damn, i thought the BBC might have accidentally made a whole video without transphobia, but @13:14 they snuck some in
Luv HWG
Tbh most of your Aos content is pretty mid, but boy o boy when you cover the conker worlds i am hooked, super hooked!
Makes me proud that God, King Charles and Conckers still resonate in Australia. Negative resonance to be sure....
Shouldn't the World Conker Championships be WCC not WCW as you called it in the first minutes of this video?
Wtf. Robs Bday is the same day as 3!! of my family members. (Yes, they all have the exact same b day)
GRAVITY STRIKE
It needs an FAQ.
gw removing universal access to rules only promotes cheating
Ah the scandals at the CWWCCWSEAW's
Rob please remeber that non british people read and follow you and won't appreciate your sardonic sublime dark british humor and think you are telling the truth ......i men for god's sake they believe Abbadon is the bad guy in the Lore !!
One european out....

If you had made a bet that people would listen to you cover something no matter what is it, I believe you’re owed some money
What is this blasphemy? This is madness?
This is CONKERS
If pc gaming can go to Olympics why not conkers 😂😅
WCC?
LOL copying Jomboy now?
I don't know who that is
