My GW manager has to buy army painter super glue from down the road because GW doesn't sell it anymore, despite them still having resin and even metal models still on their website.
Really wish I'd known about the school support program. I ended up the spokesperson for my group of friends to pitch the game to my school administrators when I was about 15. Somehow i sold them on the game and we had a club for a few years, but we supported it all.
Hi Mr.Exile, I have a few questions regarding the schools out reach programme you've mentioned in a couple of your videos. Is that the same as the warhammer alliance programme? I've recently ran this with my scout group in mid-wales (about 90 minutes from the nearest GW store by car) and several of them seemed to very much enjoy it. One of the scouts even told warhammer is what he's asking his parents for as his birthday is comming up soon. However used up the 16 starter models that they sent out for the activities. I can't be certain that the group will run it again as I'm moving to study my PGCE (despite living in Wales since I was 6 months old my Welsh is not good enough to do it here). If they can find someone to run it for them next year, do you know if there might be any more help out there?
Last time I was there was in the School Alliance days and as far as I know if you call them personally and tell them what you need (and say you need several armies) then you will get those armies. So I'd try that :)
Mwuhahaha succumb to GW greed and incompetence. Just play HH1 its gonna be better than this horrendouse nightmare bloat damage ap stratagem horse shit thats coming for HH2
Fw is flat out ban in our store as they don't sell it in store and me telling people would mean the store don't make a sale. Was using my raptors with the night lords raptor heads from fw
Hey man, just an idea but I reckon you could have a good laugh with the Angry Bootneck (you may even know him from GW), he’s doubtless got some stories from his time there and a funny auld salt despite being an Ultramarines player. Love the channel, all the best.
Wouldn't it be great if gw decided to actually take note of things said in this channel and all the other guys and girls online and ACTUALLY tried to do something about it. Then again that would be like the emperor getting up of the throne and going for a walk.
That bit you mentonet remindet me of that one time some guy from oulr local group bough /and quite nicely painted up) a reaver titan and nobody wanted to play him since that was to large for a regular game. but myself (now a bit ahsamed to say) being a bit of a Powergamer. I was like yeah let's throw the force organisation chart out of the window, i'l match your titan let's see what happens! After five turns i finally manageg to bring that tough bastard down but not before he took half of my eldars down with him which i specifically tailored to be good aginst these large foes. Fun Times were had by both. :D
Then again my best Games were when we didnt go by the arrmy composition rules as they were. I fondly remember that one time i played this kid who was just starting out the hobby wth tyranids. We pre agreed thet i'll bring my entire Nids colection (About 5000 Points back when) And i'll stand against the tide with my 2000 points Tau Castle. That was back in 7th ed when tTau castling up was really strong. I was quite confident to tell him anything you can phisically fit in your deployment zone is fair game, any unit that dies can restart back in your zine. My Tau were fighting a desperate last stand and his only objective was to put a unit in my deploment zoone and survive a turn which would be the point when everyone would evacuate and the world was lost. Taht one Brood of Carnifexes was too hard to kill and secretly rooting for the nids from the start i grraciously handed him his well earned Victory.
Sounds like there is a culture of an old boys club and bullying at play here, which is completely unacceptable. It’s a better thing that we now live in times where standing up to this sort of behaviour is becoming more widely accepted and publicised.
5:00 Wholesome 12:00 They're right about AoS, but it's not his fault. 12:55 weak 19:16 Sure you didn't get butthurt. Not at all, you just put down your models, described the criticism as REEEEEEEEing and had the story sent in as a video submission. ... ... ... As for the idea itself. Does not make sense imo as part of a preestablished chapter, but nothing speaks against it if it was a homebrew chapter. 20:43 people have opinions at times wrong ones. An on the spot reason why someonem ight dislike it: - they dislike the premise - they dislike Space Wolves and this feels like Salamanders Space Wolves - they are very into Salamanders and don't like their lore being changed
These GW managers sound like absolutely horrible people. I don't understand how people can be so absolutely hostile and cynical. How is it that these people are allowed to thrive and endure in a company like that?
some of them kiss a load of ass. mine for sure did. that and hireing staff that made bank so Gw did not have to look into his weed smoking at work, late arivals, early leaving and so on. kind regards Balt
@@RaccoonAvenger hey, Balt! Good to hear from you. The job sounds like it's a tradeoff between what you love and the ruthless methods they use to sell it.
@@RSBurgener i will say that 90% of the staff is just cool guys who like toy soldiers and dice. I made the job my own and actually loved much of it. But i couldn't live on the pay. My district manager was cool and really tried to keep me in the store but in the end i had to leave. I have tons of stories to share yet so you haven't heard the last from me.
I personally don't ever turn on notifications for anything on youtube. I get that it might help creators but I don't like notifications in general and won't do it on principle.
I still think the guy who came with fucking titan on a cart was one of funniest hobby stories I ever heard
Currently batch painting 20 Rubrics and these stories are an absolute joy to listen to while painting. Keep them coming!
Wow, Chris sounds like a guy who was confident in who he is and what he can do. Great mix of stories today.
The idea of someone rolling a Warlord Titan in on a baby stroller made me laugh out loud.
That mounted marine is so sick.
Working on a Soviet KV-2 tank model as I listen to this. Hoping I can proxy it in my renegade army somewhere.
Have a great weekend.

That salamander is sweet! I don't know how I'd change the legs , cause that's the only thing I'd maybe change
Man I do like a Newcastle brown ale. 👌
We made it to another friday boys and girls have a great weekend . love the videos boss keep these coming
I’m using one of those stormcast drakes as an deathwatch outrider

Here's a question concerning forgeworld, was it everything banned from forgeworld or only certain units? and what were your thoughts on the ban?
Mwuhahaha succumb to GW greed and incompetence.
Just play HH1 its gonna be better than this horrendouse nightmare bloat damage ap stratagem horse shit thats coming for HH2
In my store? Don’t use titan sized vehicles. 30k night was Thursday so those lads didn’t feel alienated
@@northernexile Okay then. That makes alot of sense and in other stores?
@@SuperOmegaBerserker What? lol I just wanted to know about the forgeworld ban because I was a bit confused as to why and what sort of ban it was
Fw is flat out ban in our store as they don't sell it in store and me telling people would mean the store don't make a sale. Was using my raptors with the night lords raptor heads from fw
Don't show that guy the Stormwolf cavalry or he will have an aneurysm.
Awesome as always dude.
that salamander on creature looks great
18:27 "Space marines would never ride animals like this". *cough* Thunderwolf Cavalry *cough*
Wish I could buy something to support you, but they don’t ship to the USA very sad
On the salamander riding a drake (which looks badass) the whole “marines don’t ride animals” argument is stupid. Hello, thunderwolf cavalry anyone?
It's funny how the biggest obstacle for Warhammer in general is GW themselves. Every. Damn. Time.

I'll have to check him out :)
Nice. Love the stream. Best bit is please put advert here *sips tea*
Join the discord! Get on game finder! We in the US need more members!
Fuckin love a bit of nooki broon
UA-cam did not put the add there lol

Clean desks are a myth, that's a photoshop
The spess wolves ride wolves.... The dude saying murines won't ride is dumdum.

Good story from Amsterdam there.
AoS is still trash though.
Bro it’s fun

Btw space wolves literally ride wolves but a salamander riding a giant lizard is cringe
