Warren is gonna win. Just on body mass alone he has the advantage.
Warren wins!
Warren, with (or without) cheating! 😉
Warren
Rick
Warren
I’m going for Warren in this one
I’m voting for Rick – don’t be fooled by those spindly arms, I bet he has hidden reserves of PRIESTLY POWER! 🙂
My vote goes for Rick. Warren can be easily distracted.
Warren is going to win .
Warren
I think Warren has this one
Warren
I’m going for warren here.
,
Also , Rick Priestly is a god, I think hes the best wargames writer in the world, 2nd 40k may not be the game that sells all the models the modern GW corporation requires, but it stands head and shoulders above the current game in my view.
Bolt Action has really got me interested, I have neither time nor money for another wargame, but ww2 always appealed, but I’m old, my eyesight isnt up to painting 15mm models very well, so Flames of war never appealed, 28mm though, thats a different story.
I say its Rick!
I am in team Rick , how can a mere mortal defeat a God?
Hmmm…Warren I think has the upside on this bout. Warren has my vote.
Although…I have a sneaking suspicion that Rick could pull some clever move.
My vote goes for Rick.
Warren wins! It’s obvious he has the weight of the mic to give him leverage.
Rick is going to win !
The winner must have been Warlord Games!
That is if John and Alessio stop arguing about the best 40k edition for long enough to help out Rick. 😀
Who wins when Warren wrestles Warlord games? Well all of us of course because we get to watch!
But seriously my moneys on Rick 🙂
Will go with Rick
I’ll go with Warren on this one.
Super-heavy tanks were mentioned, so I hope we’ll get a 28mm scale model of a Maus…or maybe even the P-1000 or P-1500!
Rick for the win
Surely Warren wouldn’t dare to humiliate Rick on video
hmmm……. second thoughts he might
no i’ll stick with Rick
Bolt action sounds great as i have about 30 Fallschirmjager that have never seen a gaming table and a 28mm Tiger.
Rick has got it…
warren he has mass on his side my commandos could use some buddies lol
My votes for Warren.
Warren for sure 🙂
Warren for sure 😛
I really like 2nd edition 40K and Bolt Action looks like a quality game – just look at the talent behind it!!!
I vote for Rick. I’m sure Warren will be mega polite and let him win!
Going with Warren on this one.
Going for Warren – methinks years of rules- editing/writing has nulled mr Priestly’s muscles.
My money is on Rick. Warren is too much of a gentleman!
Warren
warren,
Rick. I don´t win at such competions anyways and Warren seems to have more votes going for him. ^^
I was going to say Warren but you said it’s just for fun, so I’m going with Rick.
I think it will be close but Rick will win, it looked as if he was about to push back.
I’ll go for Rick
G’wan Warren, knock his specs off!
I vote Warren.
My vote’s for Rick just because there are fewer people picking him and that means the odds of me being selected for the box are higher if he does happen to win.
warlord
I think Rik will win!
Mr R Priestley my vote is for Mr Rick Priestley.
gotto be Warren
Rick clearly
i vote for rick
Warlord games get my vote. Sorry Warren!
Warren.
Gotta be Rick. His beard is too awesome to let him loose!
im going for warren on this one
Warren; he picked a battle he can win here.
My vote is for Rick
My money’s on Warren for this one
warren
Warren!
Rick…surely Warren wouldn’t want to show up wargaming royalty!
My monies on Rick, small but fierce!
Warren for the win…
and hopefuuly we will see more of this game I have been looking for a really good historical game to break in to.
Rick all the way!
You are awesome Warren. But I think Rick will win.
I will go Warren, but do not count Rick out!
My vote is for Rick
Gee… thats a tuff one… the guy from warlord look so small. But bolt action look so great… ahhh… I’m about the same size as Warren so, go Warren!!!
Going with Warren
Rick
My vote is for Warren. Taller and more mass equals win.
One thing I didn’t really get about this game is how can it be company level? Given it is 30-50 miniatures I would say it is at platoon level + support of course (but no 12 Tigers :-D).
I will have to go with RIck. The guy is a legend.
Rick by a hair on his chinny chin chin
Rick Priestly FTW!!! He’s wirey and as taught as a twisted rubber band just waiting to unleashed.
My vote is for Warren as well.
I’ll stick with Warren
Guys I’ve been looking forward to Bolt Action since it was first announced. The chance to play 28mm WWII games sounds awesome. (I know there are other rules out there but I’ve held out for Bolt Action). Warlords models look great.
I’m predicting that Warlord wins. I think that Warren probably has Rick on the ropes when John and Alessio jump in to help overpower Warren’s size advantage.
Pick me guys! Thanks for hosting another cool giveaway.
Obviously Rick will win. His arms appear longer, giving him a lever advantage, and frankly the Warren fellow seems far too enthralled by Sir Rick’s obviously hirsute chin whiskers.
For Sir Rick!
I will now collect my prizes. Thank you.
I pick Rick! Warren must bow to his greatness.
My vote for Warren! The Fallschirmjäger looks superb, the have a awesome range all arround!
oh come on. Warren is gonna own that guy
warren
i say rick!!!!!!
Rick to win!
warlord games
Warren is gonna win, absolutely, i’m gonne vote everytime for him, is just too massive xD
Warren, Rick is too much of a gentleman to embarrass Warren live on his own camera.
I vote Rick is going to surprise us all 🙂
of Warlord Games
Warren’s got the body weight, but I can’t vote against Saint Rick Priestly.
So Rick it is!
Warren isn’t going to beat one of the most influential character in war gaming and risk losing out on freebies etc in the future 😉
warren
Warren.
Neither,
Due to the combined awesomeness of having Rick and Warren in the same room, the ExCel centre explodes as it cannot contain that much win, A rift is torn in the space time continuium and we are catapulted back in time to when a Space Marine combat squad box cost a fiver.
I think Warren will win – surely by now he must have a winning technique!
I think Rick will win!
My vote fly to Warren
the other guy is to small^^
nice selection of the opponent W. a really good tattical move
=P
Rick’s the winner
Im going for Rick,he is going to crush Warren arm!!!
Warren.
I say Rick 🙂
The game looks really exciting, am I correct in assuming the order mechanic sounds a little bit similar to Infinity?
I’ll say Rick
Hmm Warren for the win is my guess
My votes for Rick
I’d say Rick – smaller than Warren, but you shouldn’t underestimate the little blokes
Rick Im going with the under dog
it has to be the man!! Rick
My vote goes for Rick, go Warlords
I’ll guess Warren, he was a little more eager to win.
I’m sticking with Warren, he must win at least one…right?
Going with experience, I vote for Rick
Rick
rick gets my vote
hmm, im going to guess Rick
Hmm Warren looks pretty confident in the video im voting for him.
My vote is for Warlord Games. Rick is a boss.
Little known fact: Rick can hulk out at will. You wouldn’t like him when he’s angry!
My money’s on Rick!
rick
Betting on Rick. Let’s go randomness!
Hum, im going with Rick
Warren
Sorry Warren, but my vote is for Rick!
Rick for this one.
warren
Warren
Alessio
Warren could easily win, but since he’s such a good sport he’s going to let Rick take the win.
I’d go with Warren for the win, even though he does seem to be straining early on.
C’mon Warren – Rip his arm off!! – well, not literally, that’ll make a mess and be horrid…
Warren all the way!
I think it will be Rick.
I will give my coin to rick and the warlords
It’s gotta be Team Rick he is the ultimate Warlord !
I’ll go with Warren on this one
Those Warlord boys are though, I vote for them.
Warren for the win!
I say Rick.
Not worried about winning these models, but just have to say I didn’t realise Rick Priestly was there-I could’ve got him to sign my 40K Rogue Trader book I got at Salute! Massive slap to my forehead and a huge d’oh! Can’t believe it! What a twa… lol! 😛
Warren all the way.
rick to win
Rick for the win !
Rick will win this one!

I would love to see the other two jump in at the last moment and they all best Warren. Would be a funny end. Will back the legend on this one. I’m in camp Rick.
Rick, Warren wouldn’t dare beat the daddy of 40k.

I say its Rick!
Rick is the winner.

As regards Bolt Action scale is perfect and who can resist those incredibly painted 28mm figures. Even tempted to try to build up an early war french force – now there’s masochism for you!
