55:31 the fact that Rob asked “do you know a guy named Andy Chambers” and it was a genuine question and not a sarcastic “look who I’ve interviewed” really dates me in this hobby and now I feel old. Andy Chambers, “the Overfiend” is synonymous with the golden age of 40k for me.
@@zampha2065 never said that. My point was that the question was asked in a serious tone and there are legitimately people of their age group that won’t know Andy Chambers and that’s what made me feel old. I doubt any of them could not know Andy Chambers given they all worked in GW Head Office.
Thanks for the mention. Glad to be a Jugghead, looking forward to the DnD video! (Coincidentally we have bone shaker trolleys to take things to the photo studio at LEGO too - though if we drop a model we have to buy cake for the rest of the team.)
@@SaefogeoI’m pretty sure that’s the real Louise and rogue hobbies is her working hard to be family friendly and is fronting with her delicious mad goblin energy on full display on juggz
Rob, the Poorhammer podcast has developed this thing they call "Horde Mode" which is a way to play 40k as a PvE game that I think you might be interested in checking out.
Puts hand up. The K in CMYK refers to "key" or "key plate" an old skool printing term, referring to the printing plate that would contain the most detail.
I really appreciate Rob bringing up the topic of being a man in the hobby every week, we must get our voices heard( I laugh every time the joke is snuck in).
I think Louise is too hard on herself. That was the kindest and gentlest criticism ever. Also that video gave me an appreciation of different ways to look at painting and sculpting. It was also a good reminder to remember there are people who are behind these projects and be thoughtful with criticism not harsh.
I discovered the video this morning while dropping off the bus and I yelled " Oh! JUGGZ!" wich is relatively safe to say in Italy. But an old couple of Scots ( recognised them by their accent )just dropped of the bus just behind me. The Old lady laughed her ass off, and the old man winked at me. And that's it I guess 😂😂😂
Finally someone - thank you James - has thought about solo gamers and how they could also play 40k. Not everyone has the friends who also want to play, a gaming club, the time and/or the time to play in a social environment. Game Workshop even wrote in their rulebooks introduction text: the best way to learn how to play is get friend to show you. To which I thought: no, write some solo play rules, don‘t delegate your job as a workshop for games to someone who may not even exist. I read the Black Library novels alone, assemble and paint the models alone, why then is it expected that I go out and find other people to actually play the game. The competitive play I see on UA-cam seem often so „win at all costs“ and toxic or just plain silly and juvenile, that player-vs.-environment sounds like a dream come true. Please James make it happen. Modern boardgame designers have been including solo play as standard for a few years now. I can play Scythe with one or more Automata, or Pandemic or Eldritch Horror in solo player mode. I look forward to playing 30k and 40k in Player vs. Environment.
The guys over at Poorhammer Podcast have an amazingly robust solo/co-op 40k ruleset for 10th edition called Horde Mode that has rules for the "AI" player as well as additional objective style rules.
When Rob asked the question 'what game would you like to see made' - i head went straight to Babylon 5!!! And then that was Rob's number 1!! Awesome show
What I loved about this episode, is that James agreed to make the rules for the forthcoming Rascaltown board game (TM), even though it was edited out. It happened. I’m calling it.
I apparently used to sell toy soldiers to Mr James M Hewitt from GW Maidstone in the 90’s. I unfortunately do not remember him but I do love all his games. He the best.
I just discovered this a couple of days ago and have instantly subscribed. I think this is the only tabletop wargaming podcast I've heard/seen where folks are talking about games as something to PLAY, not just something to WIN.
My gang's name would be "Men in the Hobby". Just hearing that phrase you'd know those guys have been up against it from the start. They would be hard as nails due to the inequality they've battled.
One-turn Goblin Touchdown: Goblin picks-up/catches the ball. Goblin hands ball to other goblin adjacent to troll. Troll isn't Really Stupid. Troll doesn't try to eat goblin with ball. Troll successfully throws goblin with ball near target square (this basically always requires a 6). Goblin with ball lands on his feet. Goblin with ball runs to end-zone (maybe requiring 1-2 Rushes, potentially a Dodge or two). It's a lot of rolls. Also, I'm not at all surprised that Juggz: The Podcast is here advocating playing with yourself!
@@Hudston But that is Blood Bowl in a nutshell, and what takes it from an ok-sports game, to a hilarious game. All those insane ideas that you just roll with because it is FUN
once I had a golden game towards the end of a league where I managed that 8 times, and my wood elf opponent also pulled off the one turn wood elf bullshit 8 times. It was the most exciting draw in existence. on my last turn even my opponent was rooting for me to get the rolls!
Another great episode - love that you guys were having such a fun catch up that it was over an hour in before anyone remembered to mention Fallout! Let’s face it though, in reality we’re all here for the “which had the better credit sequence - Racoons or Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors?” debate.
Great episode! Me and a chap called Jim filmed the very first Warhammer TV video, it was experimental and before Warhammer TV was really a thing. It was terrible as no one could talk to the camera then! Practice makes perfect I guess. The shooting the same mini multiple times by several teams is true. There was a time we shared our White Dwarf shots with other studios but it was such an effort. There was a project to set up a digital asset sharing system but it would have pushed a tonne of work on me and my team so we torpedoed it instead by saying the tools were really bad.
Peachy, Cheers for the B'day shoutout, great meeting up with you all and damn Aly Morrison is just awesome! Rob, QUESTTION: I know you're an AOS guy, but do you have a fave Space Marine Chapter? so I can add you to my Deathwatch Sugs, Stay awesome!
I haven't bought a figure or painted one for...thirty years. I remember buying White Dwarf before it became a Games Workshop house magazine. Every so often I think about picking up a paint brush again. But I keep deciding against it. But your enthusiasm - both here and on your individual shows - has nudged me nearer to having another go. Plus you all seem like nice, funny people. Also as a long term Doctor Who nerd there have been - over the years - several RPGs based on it.
Leaving a comment for engagement and to say the big fallout spoiler about the war starting is actually hinted at in fallout 3. If you use free camera and look on top of the bomb in megaton, it has a very memorable symbol on it.
It's 1 turn touchdown step 1: pick up ball Step 2: handoff the ball to a gobo next to a troll Step 3: throw that gobo Step 4: survive and make it Since the 2nd gobo hasn't activated after getting handed the ball they can still move. Insanely had to pull of tho haha
I spent days playing Space Hulk solo play whenever I was off school sick as a kid. So many fond memories of playing missions on the living room floor with daytime TV on.
Enjoying the dedicated LED light bar pillars for each speaker (except Peach) dedicated backgrounds for everyone for that little something of visual interest.
According to Bob Naismith(I think? I listened to a bunch of different interviews close together) on either Jordan Sorcery or Filmdeg (I forget which), but the reason that space marines ended up being all male was that at the time female minis weren't selling well, and they had limited space on the sprue for when designing the first plastics. So basically standard GW policy of all about mini sales.
i'd watch Peachy's solo-play narrative batreps, and a lot of mini agnostic games are getting solo or coop rules. I've sort of recently played some games of County Road Z - it's a solo zombie apocalypse survival skirmish game set in the countryside I found fun.
Oh my word. Finally finishing this episode and someone else hypes over Jas and the Wheeled Warriors!!! I loved that show when I was a kid!!! Thank you Mr Hewitt!!
Hearing Louise talk of her love of colour mixing and matching I'd love to see what she could do with a tradition Zorn pallette. Would be interesting because it was used so much in the old school art work for games workshop but I haven't seen come up very often with model painting. Would allow for a bit of art history both for fine art and from Warhammer legends such as John Blanche. You could even double up on the interest by using artist oils..... you only have to buy 4 tubes haha
I love the insight that James brings. I also like the fact that, true to the spirit of fallout, you took ages before you started the main topic (or main quest if you will).
Thank you all, guys. I love Blood Bowl, got back into it last year after... 20 years and refusing to play because the 3rd ed said that if I did not advance the turn counter, I lost the turn :D It was corrected afterward... But I like your show, a lot of fun.
Peachy, if you’re having trouble finding solo mini games to make batrep videos. You could try one of the co-op miniatures games and just play all of the players yourself. I recently picked up the rule book for Hametsu from Black Site Studios. It’s a 4 player cooperative monster hunting game in a feudal Japan type setting. So you would just play all 4 characters yourself when you record it.
Glad to hear you guys talk about solo gaming. I use a method by a historical gamer, Charles Grant, which can be used for conventional games. Each scenario lays out deployment and basic tactics, along the lines of "flank movement" or "send in reserves when the line is broken." I've been thinking of using it for 40K.
Looking forward to Peachy‘s solo battle report videos - Frostgrave, The Silver Bayonet, Stargrave, or a solo 40k. @JamesHewitt please please please design a (solo) player vs. (A.I.) environment set of rules for (40k) generic grimdark sci-fi game.
I'm always happy to watch when guests get to come on your juggz, these are people who have helped inspire and have a hand in creating some of our favorite things that are usually unsung heroes. So watching these strangers come is very fun for us.....but on the other hand I did also enjoy bukake Vader clips, so my words are really worthless.
The Star Player BB question Rob. Star players are sometimes banned or taxed (so you pay their cost and also forfeit skills from your package). The Mega Star has also been introduced by GW to help with this. So you might have events that ban Mega stars, ban all stars , ban no stars etc.
Jeeezus, I choked and coffee came out my nose when Suggs said that, we all know what it was. Being a man in the hobby, it can be hard at times, but along comes Juggz and it feels like Christmas down at the pub with a few mates. Don't ever change.
Oh wow I didn't know James worked on Gorechosen! One of my core gaming memories is playing Gorechosen at a lake house with a bunch of mates and us all chanting "HEADSHOT HEADSHOT HEADSHOT" like a buncha barbarians when we'd flip injury cards 😅 So please say thank you to James for helping to make something really cool, probably my favorite GW game of all time
Bloodbowl coach here and the tournament scene has been alive and well for decades. The events range from local 10 player events, to 300 turning up to York for a team event and then 2500+ travelling to Spain for the World Cup (I believe the current belief is the next World Cup could be approaching 4000 coaches). The rules are fairly easy to start with but getting good is the hard part, but the joy of it is it is a dice game, so even the most rookie coach can get lucky and pull off something glorious to keep them hooked. As for teams played, I think it is fair to say most coaches have a handful of teams they focus on, but ultimately the tournament packs make some more viable than others so as people get experience they tend to branch out and try others. It is also worrth pointing out that a Bar is a regular bonus feature of a good event!
Yeah loved Louise’s insight into basically colour theory for the brettonian lord. I think she did great and shows a real different side to the sculpt and such. I wish they gave Martin a chance to remaster this as the bones of the mini are top notch
Talking of games with single player rules, I recently picked up GKR Heavy Hitters which is a great game made by Weta Workshop. You play giant mechs in a gladiatorial arena with destructible skyscraper terrain and a cool deck building system. They included a system where you could play solo by drawing the opponents action cards blind with a diceroll that dictated how they used each type of card. Obviously not as challenging as a human but it allows you to enjoy the game and you can always play vs multiple enemies to raise the difficulty
James Hewitt is the best! I remember when I asked a question about Silver Tower and James gave me the answer. Blew my mind that the designer was still caretaking his game. As my question was a couple years after release. Seeing this makes me want to play Silver Tower again this weekend 😊
Another great guest and great chat. I'm not sure if James will ever see this but as a heads up for his 1:1 mini game check out Home Raiders now owned by TTCombat. 1:1 scale minis (Egyptian penguins, Liliput bikers, fairies etc) and the game used any part of the house as terrain from breakfast tables to book shelves. It really deserved to do better imho.
Anyone mentioned Rangers of Shadow deep from the same author as Frostgrave which is designed as a solo game or collab with the rules in the book controlling the baddies. It works really well.
My 'favourite' TSA experience was flying into LAX en route to Gen Con. I made the mistake of walking between terminals instead of getting a shuttle. In the middle of the day. In the middle of an American summer. Fair to say I was a bit worse for wear at the other end, especially having come from midwinter New Zealand. As I passed through security, I got pulled aside for a full swabbing of my bag. Halfway through, one of the guys looked at me and conspiratorially said "you're looking a bit sweaty" thinking he'd caught someone dodgy. I used my thickest Kiwi accent to explain the actual situation and politely suggest they fix the building's broken air con. He zipped up my bag and sent me on my way.
One of my favourite moments in cinema was watching the gijoe movie in theatre, and spending the whole time heckling it. The whole audience got into it and we were all crying laughing with the film. A++
The best example of what Robs saying about films that know what they are is Pacific Rim. Big, stupid and leave your brain at the door and just enjoy 90minutes of big stompy robots fighting big stompy monsters whilst Idris Elba (who knows what type of film he is in) chews up the scenery.
Okay. Two bones to pick: [1.] I was in Warhammer World yesterday, in the exhibit bit. There was a group of teenagers criticising the Custodes change as a tacky retcon. They were being awkwardly invasive of my personal space already by that point, so I let out a "you do realise that if that's a retcon at all, it's only exactly the kind of retcon that has made 40K what it is today, right?" They argued the point, I said "we used to have female space marines", they argued that point too, and I was JUST about to reference the bit discussed here about the sculptor and their conversation with Peachy, when I realised I couldn't tell children to google "JUGGZ". So thanks for that one . [2.] I grew up absolutely in love with Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, and always cite that as my first example any time I'm in a conversation of excellent theme songs/intro tunes. And I've gone about 30 years since first watching it just assuming I lived in some sort of weird dimension where I would never ever meet anyone who had come across that show other than me. It was a weird dimension, but it was mine. Now you've torn that apart like some sort of warp entity. Double-thanks.
My favourite airport story was back in 1992/93 and going through security at the UK end going to the US. The West Ham team were going through security and throwing their bags around at which point one player went “be careful with that bag, the bomb might go off” at which point everyone in the room laughed including the security guards. Good times. Also the start mentions passports; I didn’t have one. You used to be able to go with your parents passport (like you got 2 additional slots). Oh and planes used to have smoking sections (usually at the back). Different times eh?
Obviously the people in Fallout need uniforms! I mean, how else will you know that guard is shirking his duty and drinking at the outdoor riverside bar!? And that bartender better be in a nice clean suit too. My tricorner hat is off to you Commander Peach!
I know this podcast has been a month ago but to give Peachy an idea of a solo game from games workshop... one good solo game that players can go in with simple rules is "Space Marine Adventures - Labyrinth of the Necrons". Good solo board-game with cool looking minis. So easy to learn and just takes about 30-40 mins to play (solo or co-op).
Hi guys, I came across your podcast a few weeks ago. It's fantastic to finally find a place in the hobby that is a safe space for men. As a middle aged white man in the hobby, I finally feel seen. Thanks so much. Sarcasm aside, absolutely fantastic show. Really great to listen to while painting. Thanks for making it.
I should add I speak with great experience of having enjoyed quite a few lone table sessions bashing out a few fierce moments of StarForged or StarGrave or 5 Parsecs.
This is the ALL-STARS cast! Please have James Hewitt be a regular co-host! And BLITZBOWL is the best game in our galaxy!!! James Hewitt is the best game designer, there I said it!
It is fucking astonishing how quickly this has become one of my core UA-cam shows
Same
Same.
Same and I don’t even play.
Absolutely
yep. everything else to the side, new juggz just dropped.
The "it's tough being a man in the hobby" bit catches me off guard every time XD
It's an ongoing struggle. 😂
How could any of us cope without our fellow men 😔
I need it to be printed on a t-shirt!
😂 I die every time
i may start saying it randomly in conversations
So glad Suggs is there to set the tone and make the jokes none of the boys would be comfortable making
Tis my duty
I really want to like this comment but it's already got 69 likes & that would spoil it.
Well played.
55:31 the fact that Rob asked “do you know a guy named Andy Chambers” and it was a genuine question and not a sarcastic “look who I’ve interviewed” really dates me in this hobby and now I feel old. Andy Chambers, “the Overfiend” is synonymous with the golden age of 40k for me.
I feel your pain man. For me, the only parts of 40k that are genuinely canon were written by Rick Priestley and Andy Chambers.
I was actually very aware. It was meant to illicit a popcorn at the screen moment where I come across as a Rube but I'm actually in on the joke.
I love that you think that a guy in his 30s who runs a hobby store in Nottingham doesn't know who Andy Chambers is!
@@JuggzthePodcast Val... eeeeee... joe?
@@zampha2065 never said that. My point was that the question was asked in a serious tone and there are legitimately people of their age group that won’t know Andy Chambers and that’s what made me feel old. I doubt any of them could not know Andy Chambers given they all worked in GW Head Office.

And we love it
can't like, at 69, take this comment instead
The level of absolutely unhinged energy in these is AMAZING

We will credit you
I discovered the video this morning while dropping off the bus and I yelled " Oh! JUGGZ!" wich is relatively safe to say in Italy. But an old couple of Scots ( recognised them by their accent )just dropped of the bus just behind me. The Old lady laughed her ass off, and the old man winked at me. And that's it I guess 😂😂😂

This is the best content I’ve consumed on UA-cam in a long time. Warhammer or otherwise. Love the Juggz
googled james hewitt, apparently he was Dianas secret lover... 😅😅😅
😂😂😂😂
It's 1 turn touchdown
step 1: pick up ball
Step 2: handoff the ball to a gobo next to a troll
Step 3: throw that gobo
Step 4: survive and make it
Since the 2nd gobo hasn't activated after getting handed the ball they can still move. Insanely had to pull of tho haha

That is 100% correct, Bob said pretty much that when I interviews him on the painting phase
High point of the week on UA-cam, my dose of catching some Louise enthusiasm.
i'd watch Peachy's solo-play narrative batreps, and a lot of mini agnostic games are getting solo or coop rules. I've sort of recently played some games of County Road Z - it's a solo zombie apocalypse survival skirmish game set in the countryside I found fun.
Oh my word. Finally finishing this episode and someone else hypes over Jas and the Wheeled Warriors!!! I loved that show when I was a kid!!! Thank you Mr Hewitt!!
Haven’t even watched yet but I’m so excited for over two full hours of Juggz 🤩
Hearing Louise talk of her love of colour mixing and matching I'd love to see what she could do with a tradition Zorn pallette.

I'm painting up a chaos dwarf army for TOW using the Zorn palette. It's a lot of fun.
Got a blog on chaos-dwarfs-online under Fire Dwarfs / Blanchitsu
I love the insight that James brings. I also like the fact that, true to the spirit of fallout, you took ages before you started the main topic (or main quest if you will).
No one responded to the siren this week? 😆 watch it Louise, they'll get the drop on you if you continue to let your guard down! 😄
Dice Chatter does great frostgrave solo battle reports
I'm a big fan of juggz and excited to see new juggz on the internet each week.
Going to watch later. Just wanted to say James made my all time fave game (silver tower) and I wanted to say ty to him.
Finally watching and I'm glad everyone seems to appreciate silver tower as much as me
Thank you all, guys. I love Blood Bowl, got back into it last year after... 20 years and refusing to play because the 3rd ed said that if I did not advance the turn counter, I lost the turn :D It was corrected afterward... But I like your show, a lot of fun.
I watch this podcast just in the hopes of seeing whatever mullet Rob is hiding under that hat.
Peachy, if you’re having trouble finding solo mini games to make batrep videos. You could try one of the co-op miniatures games and just play all of the players yourself.

@JamesHewitt please please please design a (solo) player vs. (A.I.) environment set of rules for (40k) generic grimdark sci-fi game.
I'm always happy to watch when guests get to come on your juggz, these are people who have helped inspire and have a hand in creating some of our favorite things that are usually unsung heroes. So watching these strangers come is very fun for us.....but on the other hand I did also enjoy bukake Vader clips, so my words are really worthless.
Finally have a wargaming podcast my wife is happy to listen to in the car with me. She loves Louise’s humour, insight and her accent (we’re Aussie’s)
This has rapidly become my favourite hobby podcast. Love to you all.
The Star Player BB question Rob. Star players are sometimes banned or taxed (so you pay their cost and also forfeit skills from your package). The Mega Star has also been introduced by GW to help with this. So you might have events that ban Mega stars, ban all stars , ban no stars etc.
Jeeezus, I choked and coffee came out my nose when Suggs said that, we all know what it was. Being a man in the hobby, it can be hard at times, but along comes Juggz and it feels like Christmas down at the pub with a few mates. Don't ever change.
Anyone else reminder of the excellent line from Spaced:
Daisy: [looking at Tim's robot] What does "T.F.U." stand for?
Tim: Uh, "The Fuckest Uppest".
They had to get permission to use that! TFU were a graffiti crew from Brighton, and Simon Pegg thought they were cool.
No idea how they sorted it out.
@@JamesWhoMakesGames wow! Stop providing additional evidence that you are indeed the best! 😀 🙌🏼
@@astromoose look, I'm just a guy who watched the Spaced DVD commentaries far too many times.
Loving this podcast. It's great to have on while I'm painting. Thanks for the laughs!
Oh wow I didn't know James worked on Gorechosen! One of my core gaming memories is playing Gorechosen at a lake house with a bunch of mates and us all chanting "HEADSHOT HEADSHOT HEADSHOT" like a buncha barbarians when we'd flip injury cards 😅
So please say thank you to James for helping to make something really cool, probably my favorite GW game of all time
Aw, thank you!
@@JamesWhoMakesGamesThank you!
Bloodbowl coach here and the tournament scene has been alive and well for decades. The events range from local 10 player events, to 300 turning up to York for a team event and then 2500+ travelling to Spain for the World Cup (I believe the current belief is the next World Cup could be approaching 4000 coaches).
The rules are fairly easy to start with but getting good is the hard part, but the joy of it is it is a dice game, so even the most rookie coach can get lucky and pull off something glorious to keep them hooked.
As for teams played, I think it is fair to say most coaches have a handful of teams they focus on, but ultimately the tournament packs make some more viable than others so as people get experience they tend to branch out and try others.
It is also worrth pointing out that a Bar is a regular bonus feature of a good event!
You'll be pleased to know your SEO is so good that i am getting 100% lingerie ads so far

Yeah loved Louise’s insight into basically colour theory for the brettonian lord. I think she did great and shows a real different side to the sculpt and such. I wish they gave Martin a chance to remaster this as the bones of the mini are top notch
Talking of games with single player rules, I recently picked up GKR Heavy Hitters which is a great game made by Weta Workshop.
You play giant mechs in a gladiatorial arena with destructible skyscraper terrain and a cool deck building system. They included a system where you could play solo by drawing the opponents action cards blind with a diceroll that dictated how they used each type of card. Obviously not as challenging as a human but it allows you to enjoy the game and you can always play vs multiple enemies to raise the difficulty
The "borrowers" style game James is remembering is Vesper-On (and now TTCombat's) Home Raiders. TTCombat are looking to bring it back in the future :)
James Hewitt is the best! I remember when I asked a question about Silver Tower and James gave me the answer. Blew my mind that the designer was still caretaking his game. As my question was a couple years after release. Seeing this makes me want to play Silver Tower again this weekend 😊
It's true, he never quits!
@@JamesWhoMakesGames 🤯…best…ever.
Another great guest and great chat. I'm not sure if James will ever see this but as a heads up for his 1:1 mini game check out Home Raiders now owned by TTCombat. 1:1 scale minis (Egyptian penguins, Liliput bikers, fairies etc) and the game used any part of the house as terrain from breakfast tables to book shelves. It really deserved to do better imho.
Drunken Warble: the real game of beer and pretzels, totes legally distinctive from other games you may have heard of.
Anyone mentioned Rangers of Shadow deep from the same author as Frostgrave which is designed as a solo game or collab with the rules in the book controlling the baddies. It works really well.
James was a great guest for this podcast. He really shook things up. Shook Juggs up. Juggs got a good shaking.
Thank you all for what has become my favourite podcast, or should I say vodcast.
My 'favourite' TSA experience was flying into LAX en route to Gen Con. I made the mistake of walking between terminals instead of getting a shuttle. In the middle of the day. In the middle of an American summer. Fair to say I was a bit worse for wear at the other end, especially having come from midwinter New Zealand.
As I passed through security, I got pulled aside for a full swabbing of my bag. Halfway through, one of the guys looked at me and conspiratorially said "you're looking a bit sweaty" thinking he'd caught someone dodgy. I used my thickest Kiwi accent to explain the actual situation and politely suggest they fix the building's broken air con.
He zipped up my bag and sent me on my way.
I’m still obsessed with the opening to Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors
One of my favourite moments in cinema was watching the gijoe movie in theatre, and spending the whole time heckling it. The whole audience got into it and we were all crying laughing with the film.
A++
The best example of what Robs saying about films that know what they are is Pacific Rim. Big, stupid and leave your brain at the door and just enjoy 90minutes of big stompy robots fighting big stompy monsters whilst Idris Elba (who knows what type of film he is in) chews up the scenery.
This was a wonderful conversation. ❤
Once again Louise and her mates make me smile❤
Also I really like this jumper too Peach.
😘😘😘
Forbidden Psalm, a wargame based on Mörk Borg, has a great solo rule set along the lines of what y’all are talking about.
When I wrestled my character was a baseball fury tribute/twist, a warriors game would be amazing. Larping is also very cool.
I don't know Rob's conspiracy theory, but I subscribe to it.
The poorhammer podcast has made a cooperative 40k game mode called horde mode. Haven't played it yet but it looks good!
Never getting tired of these Juggz getting all up in my grill. Great content as always.
Okay. Two bones to pick:
[1.] I was in Warhammer World yesterday, in the exhibit bit. There was a group of teenagers criticising the Custodes change as a tacky retcon. They were being awkwardly invasive of my personal space already by that point, so I let out a "you do realise that if that's a retcon at all, it's only exactly the kind of retcon that has made 40K what it is today, right?" They argued the point, I said "we used to have female space marines", they argued that point too, and I was JUST about to reference the bit discussed here about the sculptor and their conversation with Peachy, when I realised I couldn't tell children to google "JUGGZ". So thanks for that one .
[2.] I grew up absolutely in love with Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, and always cite that as my first example any time I'm in a conversation of excellent theme songs/intro tunes. And I've gone about 30 years since first watching it just assuming I lived in some sort of weird dimension where I would never ever meet anyone who had come across that show other than me. It was a weird dimension, but it was mine. Now you've torn that apart like some sort of warp entity. Double-thanks.
Why were you arguing with children(as you put it) about their opinion?
Amazing show as always! Glad to catch this atleast within the first couple of days of release! James was a great guest!
Episode 5... and now my new favorite podcast. Keep it up, this is SO good
My favourite airport story was back in 1992/93 and going through security at the UK end going to the US.
The West Ham team were going through security and throwing their bags around at which point one player went “be careful with that bag, the bomb might go off” at which point everyone in the room laughed including the security guards.
Good times.
Also the start mentions passports; I didn’t have one. You used to be able to go with your parents passport (like you got 2 additional slots).
Oh and planes used to have smoking sections (usually at the back).
Different times eh?
Obviously the people in Fallout need uniforms! I mean, how else will you know that guard is shirking his duty and drinking at the outdoor riverside bar!? And that bartender better be in a nice clean suit too. My tricorner hat is off to you Commander Peach!
😍🙏😍 I love you for validating my choices 😂
Yes James!! 🎶 Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors will save the dayyyy 🎶
I know this podcast has been a month ago but to give Peachy an idea of a solo game from games workshop... one good solo game that players can go in with simple rules is "Space Marine Adventures - Labyrinth of the Necrons". Good solo board-game with cool looking minis.
So easy to learn and just takes about 30-40 mins to play (solo or co-op).
Hi guys, I came across your podcast a few weeks ago. It's fantastic to finally find a place in the hobby that is a safe space for men. As a middle aged white man in the hobby, I finally feel seen. Thanks so much.
Sarcasm aside, absolutely fantastic show. Really great to listen to while painting. Thanks for making it.
"Come on these Juggz" thanks, have to clean the screen from all the tea i just spat out! Perfect podcast!
Robs street fighter/ Bison/Raul Julia quote
YES! finally, someone else remembers Jayce & The Wheeled Warriors!! I was almost convinced it was a fever dream..
Nah you weren't dreaming.....unless we entered the same dream 🤯
I am loving this content and feel that Juggz missed an opportunity to talk about Peachy having fun playing with himself.
I should add I speak with great experience of having enjoyed quite a few lone table sessions bashing out a few fierce moments of StarForged or StarGrave or 5 Parsecs.
This is the ALL-STARS cast! Please have James Hewitt be a regular co-host! And BLITZBOWL is the best game in our galaxy!!! James Hewitt is the best game designer, there I said it!
