I like how Deadzone seem to be giving all of their forces equal billing in their starter sets, rather than the not-good-but-totally-the-ones-we-support Space Marines vs the narrative bad guys de joir of GW's typical output.
I feel like not everyone is as excited about tiny Greek fighting boats as Gerry, there were moments there where those faces looked like Labradors being told why they were very naughty dogs - 'I hear things but I do not understand the hairy hooman'
Happy weekend! Really liking Mantic’s starter box philosophy these days, nice to constantly be getting interesting new boxes to draw people in. Hopefully it works out for Deadzone as it has for KoW
@Gerry mcCabe there are still servers up and running, but the originals died a death in 2012 ish? In other news , used to play World of Warcraft with the 'wonga' man from the envirophone adverts, he was a bloody good tank
Another great Weekender show guys, was a little surprised about guess "This Weeks Prize" yourself in this weeks show, but thinking it is Mantic Games' Deadzone! I am really looking forward to GW The Balefleet Battleforce, might be time to get a Fallen force started.
Unfortunate that the microphone of two guys seemed to be broken for most of the show. At least they seemed to enjoy the show much the same way all other viewers do.
I'm not a big fan of the massive price point to get started with Warmachine MkIV... Those are $200 sets for a single player, that really is a hurdle for me and it's very hard to convince somebody to start this game without a cheap 2-player starter set entry point.
yes. wish they would go back further as there were so many good ones. I tried to make s list but like the pile of shame...pile of potential...orconquering lead mountain.
I don’t mind paying more to get more, but I still don’t understand why my print sub to WI isn’t considered worth rewarding with access to the online extras (not the whole magazine but the bonus articles)
I'd love to see you actually consider resin price in your 3D printing segments. You always talk like its free. Its certainly cheaper than buying the models, but it's far from free. If you're printing something large it can get quite costly. Throw in the price of the files too and it all adds up. A large file you'll only ever print once might actually cost more than if you'd bought a similar mini.
I can confirm Ben’s statement that thalassa means sea. I’m not saying any more because two attempts at expanding on this have disappeared due to unsuccessful efforts at correcting typos.
Nor do I (though I’m not sure there is such a language as “ancient Greek”). I only know the word through English terms such as thalassocracy and thalassotherapy. I was simply alluding to Ben’s phonetic pronunciation of the Romanised form of the word which is the only one I’m familiar with.
Fair points. I wasn’t claiming definitive knowledge and frankly admit ignorance of Greek of any vintage. (I know the alphabet has remained the same, hence my rationalisation - OK, assumption - that, for all the undoubted changes over more than two millennia, it is essentially the same language, which I concede is debatable). As I said I was simply going from the Romanised spelling with three A’s and hadn’t previously heard the word pronounced any other way than the way Ben said it. I take your point that deeper knowledge would be required to say that your pronunciation, or any other, is absolutely wrong, and I must assume that, even without knowledge of ancient Greek, you have valid linguistic grounds for your rendition of the word in question.
@Gerry mcCabe I don’t disagree with you. But it’s harder for me to get a subscription in the US. So Prime it is for me. I do want those sweet sweet sprues though, and paper. Love the smell of a paper magazine.
Paul Sawyer and his tale of four gamers; that takes me back.
Me to 😊 Fat Bloke eating his big sandwich in picture for rest of savings ;)
I've jumped on Deadzone myself and can't recommend it enough! Cheers!
I think we can all agree that giving NUTS a little bit of love goes a long way

I used to play City of Heroes MMO with Paul Sawyer (aka White Scar) thoroughly nice bloke

The weekend starts now!
Painting time!
Dear lordy those Bushido models look sweet. Have a fantastic weekend folks!
I'm glad the OrcQuest campaign is so short because I think I'll actually have the willpower to resist
Good news re the Indie of the week segments being collated onto the website 👍
I'm loving some of that Gothic terrain. Thanks for the heads up.
I love everything Mantic. Great show this week thanks for what you do.
Great weekender, hopefully I’ll get to meet you guys at salute or at the UKGE this year
The best part of 300-2 was Eva Green. ;-)
Those Bushido minis look awesome!

@@gerrymccabe4738 What a start of 2023.... who hired that person 😁
I love Mantic's stuff! So many fun systems to choose from, and cool minis at great prices. Geedubz could learn a thing or two from them.
Yay, made it to Friday again!
Thanks for another fun weekender guys.
The indie of the week archive was long overdue. Good job.
Now only 2 weeks behind! Great show as always. I find domething new every time!
Deadzone looks great, Mantic minis look fantastic!
It's a really fun game, easy to pick up but enough depth to make you stay
New Deadzone starter set looks great
As a fellow player of small ship skirmish games I am equally excited for ancient Greek trireme goodness.
Thalassa and the NUTS Kickstarter look good.
Great idea to make the indies of the week more accessible!
Interested in Manics reset of Dungeon Saga, the games that started the Dungeon crawl phenom.
Happy weekend lads.... from across the Northsea
love the look of those plague zombies!
Unfortunate that the microphone of two guys seemed to be broken for most of the show. At least they seemed to enjoy the show much the same way all other viewers do.
There are just so many WW2 rulesets that I go nuts!
Love the Bushido stuff too. Not something I’ve really looked at before.
This is on my super short list of 'to get'!
You had me at ramming template. I’m very interested in this game. Would like to see how it plays before getting a fleet
Jeez another Friday night already... soon be Xmas 😁
OrcQuest’s miniatures look great, but I wish more games would do less count of miniatures and more poses in the groups.
I would love to try some boat combat games one day.
I'm not a big fan of the massive price point to get started with Warmachine MkIV... Those are $200 sets for a single player, that really is a hurdle for me and it's very hard to convince somebody to start this game without a cheap 2-player starter set entry point.
Deadzone looks interesting
I look forward to your Friday shows. Well done!!
Glad to see this today!:)
Indi archive is a great idea!
yes. wish they would go back further as there were so many good ones. I tried to make s list but like the pile of shame...pile of potential...orconquering lead mountain.
Nice i love the new Indie of the week list !
We need more beards on this show... more beards I say!
All that kind of good stuff. DRINK 😵💫
Nuts looks pretty good for solo players so I'm thinking about backing the Kickstarter.
Happy Weekender All 👍😉👍
Nuts looks tops. Gotta get my hands on that
Love the Orc quest Kickstarter is a great looking game and Nuts looks a bit like Operation Squad so that's looks interesting 🤔
I don’t mind paying more to get more, but I still don’t understand why my print sub to WI isn’t considered worth rewarding with access to the online extras (not the whole magazine but the bonus articles)
Another stonking show! Keep it up
grate show as always the stuff from Gothic Things would add real depth to the game you are playing all the best richard

Did Gerry set the new year resolution not to back kickstarter campaigns during the stream?
Watched, left the house and purchased wargames illustrated.
Love Deadzone and Mantic’s style, just wish it had more local players
Recruit them. It sucks but long term it is so worth it
@@snarkymcsnarkface1863 Tried it a few years ago, both local areas have too much buy in to GW & Legion to give space to other games.
Happy bump day!
RIP Easons lol
Weekend time, yea!
HAPPY FRIDAY!
Time to start collecting for the buy Justin a greave (yes only one) fund
Well this will keep me company while I change some miniatures to multi based.
get mdf trays with magnets.
Another great episode. All things we like on this one!
great show as allways
Nuts!
I can confirm Ben’s statement that thalassa means sea. I’m not saying any more because two attempts at expanding on this have disappeared due to unsuccessful efforts at correcting typos.
Also, Ben’s pronunciation is correct. Gerry’s, by contrast, is bizarre.
Nor do I (though I’m not sure there is such a language as “ancient Greek”). I only know the word through English terms such as thalassocracy and thalassotherapy. I was simply alluding to Ben’s phonetic pronunciation of the Romanised form of the word which is the only one I’m familiar with.

don't forget the liqourice ...
MADE!!!!!!
GREATEST
Playing AC Odyssey so felt like i kew some of the lingo for the greek game.
Loving greek ships.
no two player starter set for Warmachine MkIV? wth
Weekend !
Nice
Weekend time
Am I out of touch but £90 for a load of plastic ships seems very expensive 🙄
nice
WiPrime is great.
@Gerry mcCabe I don’t disagree with you. But it’s harder for me to get a subscription in the US. So Prime it is for me.
I do want those sweet sweet sprues though, and paper. Love the smell of a paper magazine.
MOVIE
EVER
I don’t want to be mean, but this looked better when you did in a studio.
Watching too many teleconfrences at work already…
Deadzone looks fun
Warmachine....way overpriced
