I wouldn’t post in here expecting to win (I don’t think OTT draw from posts here), instead go over to the Youtube channel and post a comment there. Hint if you look at the “Claim a Prize” page you’ll see ALL the winners are from Youtube (the only time I see the OTT forum win a prize is if it’s a dedicated prize to the forum) 🙁
Hi Hi Weekenders
It’s not spoilers its carrots to the get the FOMO gang biteing.
An Abe Troll.
Yes! More Italians.
Oh lordy Gydran are going to make me poor. I don’t need any more game agnostic robots but LOOK AT THEM!
Seriously I’ve over £100 of tabs open now. Send cash
but they’re so round and kroot
Yay Gerry in space.?
The naked one reminds me of the blue aliens in Valerian film.
So brother Lloyd is actually Dr Lloyd?
BIG KROOT BALL MECHS

At 27:00 in the weekender Ben claimed these round Robot looking models would be great for the Kroot. Brother Lloyd was not having it and frankly I am not sure they fit the style either.
What is your view on these Kroot or Not Kroot !!!
I like Dr Robotnik the best
Bolt Action is the best miniature game. This is another fire starter set.
Sitting here putting together my last regiment of Zulu’s listening to you guys made for a pleasant evening I’ve not heard of Gydran studio before nor of Lloyds foot fetish.
Yo! Tanker John is the new Free! #treadheadsunited 🙌🙌🙌
Brilliant show guy’s the Kickstarter figures look fab for gamers.
Friday night… weekender and a chilled alcoholic Dandelion and Burdock, oh yes
It’s the Weekender!
Time to set back, after what felt like a very long week, and get in the grove of Hobby.
Bolt Action is my go-to game to illustrate how game turns should be handled. Love the “dice in a bag” element. This new box “A Gentleman’s War Starter Set” looks like a good one.
Warmachine MK4…………keeping my eye on this.
For the record, some of the larger newer motorcycles DO have a reverse! Goldwings have had reverse for about 20 years now. 🤓👍
.
Some of the robots from “‘Gydran Studio’ might be good to use in ‘Gamma Wolves’…..maybe.
So Brother @Lloyd is a “bowel-alogist”. 🤔
.
Yes bike do now but not back then (they came in around late 70’s)
Pugs of War!
Thanks for the show. Italians were my COVID lockdown army so I’m enjoying these new releases. I see a starter army in my future as reinforcements.
Nice to have a choice of Italian troops not just for WW2, but as alt to German Auxiliaries for VBCW, I have a small Italian force but getting suitable figures was a pig.
@lloyd you’ll be happy to hear that Kromlech will bring new Rokkit Space Orks… bit *optional* foot on rock! XD https://youtu.be/dxrMX1m-YSc?t=25 (though thy call them tactical rocks)
Gentleman’s war looks like a great starter, the new Italians are pretty awesome too. Another fantastic show and looking forward to the CB stuff coming up.
All this Bolt Action talk reminds me I need to buy the missus a Churchill Tank.
New Italians look class, as does this week’s prize…!
