Happy weekend to all.
The Lockdown Leisure League, Weekender, Tanks, and Johns back. Must be the weekend is here.
Happy Weekender All. The Lockdown League sounds like a grand plan. Here in Wales we are about to getting released into the wilderness again as many of you get locked down again and have to say hobby time has gotten me through these last two weeks. That’s an impeccable hat John has got himself there. Midlam does some great work great to see them on the show getting some love. Very much expecting the website to go crash quite a few times this weekend as we all hit it up repeatedly. Very tempted with the Squiddy cultists but I’m waiting on spending out on the Lovecraftian books coming out of Frialigan https://frialigan.se/en/atmom/?mc_cid=1f36578f6f&mc_eid=63eab0e101
I have the CoC they did and it’s awesome, I’m looking forward to the RPG in 2022
I’m looking forward to my copies the art work looks stunning ?
what? weekend already?
Yep.The two shows are how i judge time passing now,everything else all merges into one.
Just started watching. Is John on to offer to fight the winner for the prize?
yes!
Those Beehives would make great 2mm Irish buildings
Good to see you guys. Thanks for the weekender
I wonder if the giant rats are from Sumatra
raping all the little spider monkies?
Oooh … Soviets
Are NATO next ?
’cause I want them big cats … 😀
Midlam Miniatures. There’s a new one for me. I’ll have the dogs, the rats, and another poke around!
Lordy if I hadn’t bought a human party for Rangers of Shadow Deep, I’d buy a load of those goblins.
John may be outside his comfort zone,but the results speak for themselves.
Yay guys its the weekender.
Those T-80’s are da bomb.
Ooh do we get a chocolate bar with the golden tickets? Lol
@avernos and @lloyd TFL (two fat lardies) are going a wild west game called What a Cowboy they have been showing playtesting on Twitter.
06:30 @johnlyons has caught on with the tricorn! 8)
12:30 Ten Ticles!
17:35 Teeny Wolf….. you lot are drinking on the job are you?
32:50 Dwarf assassins with “long’ish” coats you meant to say @avernos … long coats would drag on XD
43:56 That dwarf needs not a trimming of the beard but a flockton of greenstuff more…
50:00 The Warcradle buildings look like they would fit with The Mandalorian very nicely… or Legion for example
50:35 That smile… that’s when it all started… that damned smile… @brennon always looks so happy when it comes to his furry plastics 😉
53:30 #LeisureSuitLarry!
1:11:00 these 10mm really tempt me… though I really have no use for them…
It’s the Weekend – pique my interest… please!
Bugman looks way better with the steel mask
Ooh you could play Smith & Jones with the trains @lloyd
who would be Griff to his Mel?
Lol it won’t matter they’ll be Aliases anyway @avernos
the sailing ships do look great.
its a great looking army John.
Lloyds #unprouncable
My god John those Nords are incredible
Mumble mumble mumble they look great mumble mumble more 3d printer goodies mumble mmmmmmmm AAAAAAAAaaaaaaa
love the show guys.
The Weekender!
In this edition……@lloyd tells us he really enjoys a well design package!!! ?
Sorry to hear my brother’s and sisters a cross the pond are going into ‘Lock-Down’ again. Chin up!
Can’t go wrong with more Burrows and Badgers! Get in there and get ya some @brennon hey, Do they still make scenery items or just minis now?
Test of Honour 2.0 hurrah! About time it gets some love. ?
Deadman’s Hand is a great game @avernos I Love it long time! ?
The folks at Sarissa Precision make terrain for Burrows & Badgers + Oathsworn have a few resin pieces you can pick up too.
Great show! Are we going to see a review on the Instant colors? My KS just arrived but I haven’t played with them yet.
I’m sure when Gerry gets his hands on them he will be ready to give them a shot
they have arrived and I’m using them to speed paint the Mantic ships and the X-Men and Brotherhood of Mutants for Crisis Protocol, expect an update/review soon, maybe even next week ^^
Oh god lloyd with the teeny wolf was brilliant. The slight paws as it sunk in before the ridicule. Stand proud. T’was the pun of the day and flawlessly delivered…lol
17:02 “I have a huge halfling army” @avernos you have officially stated the same conundrum of jumbo shrimp in tabletop wargaming
27:33 @brennon I believe that they are called “toadies” for a reason
41:14 $@&}(^!!! WAAAANT *wallet wimpers from the abuse its experienced* Hush you. That box set is cheaper than getting both “Start Collecting” boxes. The only drawback is the Hellstriders instead of Seekers. *shrug* Its not like I’ll be playing anybody any time soon so I might as well load up with an army to paint. That damnable customization cost for the basing is what really kicks my ass.
48:33 @lloyd what do locomotive zombies say? “Traaiiiiins”… but the terrain really looks like it’d suit the Sisters of the Orphanage (Dia de Los Muertes ed.) from Raging Heroes for a proper Hitman style pistolero shootout
1:20:05 Lloyd harkens back to halfling Zorro the Gay Blade
1:40:40 Watch Gerry twitch when melting old minis is mentioned
Nice to see the league and more prizes on offer, but I can’t help but notice you’ve forgotten to announce the last two weekenders worth of prizes. I’d love to find out that I’ve won neither so I can stop hitting F5 until next weekend.
that’s what happens when I take holidays, they’re up now, you can let F5 rest
And I won the Conquest prize! I need to bother you more often apparently. Is this your attempt to save my life as I’ve been running low on bare plastic? Now what do I want? The 2 player set, or an individual army pack? The army packs do look like they contain less for each side than you get for each army in the 2 player set and the 2 player set means I could theoretically get a game in against someone or try it solo, but I think I prefer the nords and the dwarves (they’re dwarves. Anyone who insists otherwise is wrong).
I’ve got some thinking to do once I’ve finishe dthe weekender. Thanks @avernos
weirdly you weren’t the first, the first guy hadn’t subbed so imagine my surprise when you popped up as the second choice, I took a screen cap I was so amused
I will not complain. Whoever you are, thanks for not signing up, but you probably should now.
Midlam has some awesome figures!
Will definitely go check the site out after this.
Lots to take in this week.
Love the idea of the #lockdownleisureleague, count me in! Great show as ever, have a fantastic weekend folks.
Going to get stuck in to LockdownLeisureLeage, brilliant idea guys….
Midlam look great.
Just renewed my backstage sub so good to go for another year..
The Midlam Cults are well worth a look,they’re bound to fit into a game or two as unarmed mentalists worshipping something that wants to end the world.
Great show this week chaps.
If I was able to play D&D in person and using minis Midlam Games would likely eat a lot of my money by selling me lots of unique and characterful bad guys
Shouldn’t WW3 tanks have a little Trump and Biden in the turret?
‘American Civil War 2 – This time it’s senile old men’ seems more likely than Russia invading.
I honestly never thought I would like a skeletal army but I was given a Kings of War starter set years ago and quite liked it. I had to sell it when I moved. It was a shame to part with.
Those Soviets look good
It seems ages since I have seen John on the show other than VLOGs
nice work folks
MOAR tanks! and MOAR John!
wow, great nords
Oh for the time to play everything! Not the first time I’ve considered Dead Man’s Hand…
The Lockdown Leisure League Is good time to finish all those projects I’ve started but not finished.
Great Weekender show and have a great weekend Time to go play a big game with all of my friends. We never had to worry about a lockdown where I live muhahahahaha
Today I stopped and thoight to myself: “Isn’t it sunday? I have a new weekender to watch.” So I sat down at my hobby desk for some evening hobbying and put on the show.
The Lockdown Leisure League sounds fun but is hard to spell for a non-native english speaker. We’ll see if I can do it without doublechecking the words by the end of the month.
ohhhhhh awwwwww more plastic crack
wow just dove into team yankee ww3….bought two starter boxes…..wanted 4 has they were 1/2 price….but was over allowable hobby allowance…
hoping to have some good size tank battles…..this looks like a sweet set to branch out with badder battles
Pretty fantastic guys. Well done, work hard gents and ladies.
Good episode. Sad to see that lockdown 2 is upon us. It will get some more hobby done but still anxious for Face to Face games. Many a game campaign has languished and i fear, many , many more. Tabletop Simulator just isn’t the same.
Good to see John on the show and to see the progress on his Nords, they are looking great. 🙂
I love the idea of the Lockdown Leisure League and the fact the team at OnTableTop keeps thinking of their community like this. I might have to dust off all my unpainted models and do something with them.
World War 3 in the 80’s? Why would you want to play anyone BUT the Russians?
Lockdown leagues a good idea
Sorry, I’m late to the party……again. It’s becoming a habit now – watching the weekender halfway through the week!
So, checked the prize draws – still not a winner. I don’t expect that to change any time soon.
@johnlyons – I’m loving the Nords you’ve done. The colours are great and together as an army they look amazing.
The skin tones in particular look far better than I ever imagined they would. It’s almost enough to get me buying yet another new army for a game I don’t play. . . . . almost.
I’m still not a fan of using contrast paints, because it *feels* like cheating on the hobby. But I suppose that’s the point – they’re like a TikTok life-hack – only they actually work!
“cant have a good war with out a lot of Armour and a target rich environment”
Quote from some general
just got 2 TY WWIII starter sets….wow holy plastic crack batman
so now got to feed the addiction
so on the verge of grabbing me a American starter set for more diversity
and that means needing a soviet target rich environment…oops soviet starter set
keep safe gentleman and ladies
