    6th or 7th edition, when the chimaeras' armour was paper thin on all sides except the front ... which was cardboard thin!
    I believe it's pronounced 'KAS-er-kin', so you were pretty close.
    As a Space Wolf player (and Salamanders later on), Steel Legion became my favourite Imperial Guard army because of the Wars for Armageddon background. They do also have Yarrick, the first actual named character to appear as a model with rules (along with Ghazghkull) in 40k.

    19:10 - The lore about "fighting inside the factories", is based on the sturmtiger.. wait, no I mean, it's based on the battles at Stalingrad Tractor Factory, where the workers were building tanks right to the point the Germans reached it, and other similar events in that city where workers would finish a tank or vehicle and it would roll immediately to the frontline to fight.

    i started steel legion long ago.
    i quit 40k for several years and sold all the tanks, but not the lovely metal miniatures.
    today i have two full platoons of infantry (5 squads and one command per platoon)
    so i can play with six squads in chimeras mechanized, or with 100 infantry plus some kasrkin or scions for the average armored platoon.
    i always loved the 2nd and 3rd edition metal miniatures, lovely hand sculpts, so steel legion was and still is my dream 40k army.
    i built mortar teams from the big metal mortars which came with valhallans for example, swapped lascannons to autocannons, gave them flamers, melter and even sniper rifles, and found ways to repurpose the missile launcher teams from which i still have 10 or so... and finally grenade launchers got playable, which made me happy.
    back than a steel legion squad came with 6 rifle guys and one sargeant, neither grenade launchers nor missile launchers had any use which made the metal regiments even more expensive. missile and grenade launchers along sergeants were worth nothing and we had to find a use for them.
    i currently rebuild my tanks and some more troopers with flamers.
    i dont have to make flamer guys, i got 4 together, and for the catachans in chimeras they can just be run with only rifles with no difference, but i want to.

    Hey enjoying the new direction with these longer form discussions. Ya'll are a great cross section of the average hobbysists bringing different tastes, style, and experience to the table. A big part of this channels appea is the three of you as individuals (and Jazza is included if we have to....I guess haha). These sit down chats are enjoyable while hobbying and I don't think "short attention span" style youtube really reflects the sort of people coming to channels like yours. Obviously it will take some time to find a "format" or the flow that you like but by nature of having spent lots of time together I think a style and format will come very easily for you. Set a primary topic, set up some repeat subtopics ie News Roundup, and aim for 45min- 1 hour to talk, easy mark to hit even if not much to chat about, but if you are really hitting your flow and its a good discussion you won't have trouble going over an hour and your listeners won't mind coming along for the ride.
    The channels custom jobs are neat but clearly it is exhausting to continually produce, and I am of the opinion that good discussions have longer legs than the one off builds all over youtube. There are podcast style channels in this space but overall it is untapped compared to the flood of "warhammer" channels.
    Also when is the video focusing on the Murray Method going to be made? Heck make everyone try to emulate each others painting style. After all this time ya'll probably know each others style pretty well. Stock up on grime effects. Or get all three of you to paint one model 3 ways and then have your big chat about that, murray and Jazza talk on it was insightful and would love to see all of you get in on it.

    I cant wait to see the rumored Krieg range and what you guys will do with them for Traitor guard and Steel Legion. Should be plenty of conversions on the horizon for the channel. Also really enjoying this format, especially as a continual series. Definitely has the EoB vibes that I like from their weekly vids. I love the new Kroot range, the models are really nice. However, I think if GW is trying to sell Tau as this unifiied faction of different races, you would think Kroot would have some level of Tau tech at their disposal whether that be weapons, armor, and vehicles. They shouldnt look as primitive as they do. Dave I think thats something you should take advantage of and convert them with your custom scheme, just a thought

    There was a period when both the metal Kasrkin and Storm Troopers were available. I picked up a handleful of both new in store when I started collecting IG as a kid during 4th Edition. Not sure how long it was before the Storm Troopers were discontinued and then eventually replaced with the newer Scions.
    Yeah, the T'au Codex only having 4 detachments is a pain. The only upside being that at least all four are decently viable to actually play. Would have been nice to have a couple more options though.

    Would absolutely love you 3 to do a "tale of 3 gamers" series when Age of Sigmar 4 comes out. Each pick a NEW army and each video add a small part to your armies BUT each army needs to be highly personalised, conversions and unique paint schemes etc. Like a Cities of Sigmar with a viking aesthetic or Arabian or something or even an all female Cities of Sigmar crusade. Skaven with a pirate or samurai scheme. Soulbright Gravelords that have a different cultural setting than the typical look. Get your creative juices flowing as you plan, personalise, put together and slowly paint up forces over a period of time. That would be my favourite series type you could do!

    I was, in fact, painting minis while listening.

    I was dismayed at Dave's decision to not give the Sakura Sect, to a Kroot detachment, but interested in what Murray's idea for the Kroot. I also think murder chickens, is the best name for the Kroot.
