SPOILER FREE REVIEW FOR NIGHTREIGN I am just going to do a 🧵 review here rather than a video. I was lucky enough to get early access to the Nightreign and have played it for about 25 hours. Massive thanks to Bandai Namco for the early access

@CV_Consigliere Yeh that set looks brilliant, especially since I’m a big Skaven fan

@SmoughTown I am tempted with the new City of Ash models to make an Undead Burg vignette for display. A few of the Freeguild Galant minis have poses straight out of Souls

First Eleven of my Emperor’s Children. The 3rd have always been my fave legion and so I was thrilled when they finally got a release last year. Had a year or so break from painting so still getting back up to Speed. Looking forward to the new edition of Warhammer 40k

@CV_Consigliere Thanks bud

@SmoughTown Looking great man. Have fun!

@vordb Warhammer books are really good. Even if you never partake in the actual hobby side of it

@SmoughTown oh nice I wasn't aware of the Warhammer connection

Prospero Burns is such a banger - defo one of my fave books of the Horus Heresy. Went in to it and 'A Thousand Sons' expecting to get confirmation of my long held opinion; the Wolves Suck and Magnus is innocent. Actually came away with a new found love for the wolves.

@Surullo93 Yeh, I am going to maybe check out the Ragnar books now. Really enjoyed their portrayal in PB. Very deep in terms of culture and very honourable

@SmoughTown I found a new appreciation for them after reading some HH books and the Ragnar ones.

@Surullo93 Goats man. I was so wrong about them. Honestly might be my second fave legion now

@SmoughTown The Wolves rule

@vordb 😂In fairness you could probably get away with reading this and 'A Thousand Sons' in isolation if you had a decent understanding of the basic story

@SmoughTown laughing at how I looked this up because it looks sick and I see “book 15 of 54”

@JAPversus So powerful as well. Causes the White Scars so many issues, even their librarians struggle to counter it.

Sonic weapons are so cool, I love noise Marines so much

@vapertvaping Good luck!

My match is in ONE hour, I will update yall when it starts. My lance is ready for slaughter.

@mauthe_doog Two games that absolutely deserved to be lambasted for being totally unacceptable at launch

that thread is hilarious because half of it is fair examples of public perceptions being wrong because of influencers, then you'll have people try to sneak in Starfield and Cyberpunk

My favourite niche game was piled with unfair criticism which ruined its success, and your favourite niche game is actually terrible yet praised by biased (and paid?) influencers

Eidolon, The Risen. Even Dorne himself says that Eidolon has the ‘strength of a Primarch’ after he fought him during the Siege. I think most people think he’s an idiot because of his blunders on murder. After getting his head cut off by Fulgrim he is the only reason the Emperor’s Children maintain any sort of cohesion, and contribute in anyway. Highly recommend reading ‘Eidolon: The Auric Hammer’ and ‘Path of Heaven’ to see Eidolon at his best

@AurochDigital Really like how you are showing the 'speed' of the Daemonettes

One feature of Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 we’re really excited about is including all four Chaos god factions for the first time! That means players will be fighting against Nurgle, Tzeentch, Khorne, and Slaanesh enemies, as well as the returning Black Legion forces.

@sebastianpozzo @membtv Yes and as a pro you can’t fall for such bait. End of the day Neozz didn’t personally insult, Nicov did. Neozz didn’t actually go afk (the burger was a taunt) as they check APM after the game and it was only Nicov that stopped playing.

@membtv Neozz used the Vinicius strategy. Provoke, provoke provoke, then be misstreated and cry and victimize to get an advantage. Surprised how well it worked!

Its funny how i upload a important video, is a 19-20 min video and 14 min after the video, it has 80% of thumb ups so people do not even watch it to see about it., and thumb down. This is how we are, we don´t care the facts, we just hate for hate. Human nature.

@membtv You made a great call in a difficult situation Memb.

@Elkpomaster1 @nicovaoe He isn’t an idiot. I sympathise with Nicov, but it was Nicov who crossed the line. Neozz was baiting and taunting, but Nicov was the one who made it personal and went afk. Neozzz rightful got a warning You can’t allow yourself to be baited into anger.

@nicovaoe Memb es un idiota y vos no tendrias que estar dando disculpas de nada, mucho menos recibiendo una sanción. Insolito que uno no se pueda defender de la idiotez ajena, es como si en la realidad alguien te este pegando y si te defendes te meten en prision... gallego retrasado

I apologize to Memb and the whole AoE2 community for my actions over the weekend. I've been competing in tournaments for over a decade and I know how important good sportsmanship is for the scene. Unfortunately, I let my frustration and anger get the best of me this time and I am massively disappointed in myself for losing my composure. This has been a difficult year for me personally, and my patience hasn't been where it should be. I let triggers both before and during the game tilt me, but that is no excuse for stooping to that level. While I deeply regret my actions, I deserve and accept the penalty for my behavior. Its my top priority to focus on getting back to my best self and I'll be using the time away from Warlords to make sure this never happens again.

@nicovaoe Good for you man. Come back - fresher and stronger.

@SquareTableYT Eyyy let’s go!

@SmoughTown Entered!

Hey guys, myself and Vaati are helping with a writing competition for the next issue of ON3. It's gonna be a special Elden Ring edition, and if you were ever wanting to get into writing - now is your chance!

@micheladlondon As far as I am aware (from the editorial team’s instructions) - the article’s subject matter is up to the writer. So can be a discussion on the game’s impact, legacy, future, lore etc. anything you’d find interesting!

@SmoughTown Are there any particular topics you want covered?
