Fandom: Warhammer 40K

[@Machobunni]

Rest in Peace Geoff and TB

[@olevam1]

I thought that - damn that was a long time ago -

[@DrAlbino]

How are they leaders for the warhammer universe ? The creators for the franchise and game are still here, the authors for the books are there, even the people who make the video games for warhammer are there

[@kredonystus7768]

​@@DrAlbinothey brought in a huge number of Wahammer fans. Word of mouth is better than any advert ever, and they were able to spread the word better than most.

[@dennisfxd]

TB and InControl are cracking jokes about this episode during their endless 40K War Games in heaven right now. Miss them very much! ❤

[@ThatBronzeGirl]

Dont worry, y'all! I know my Tau are welcome in the presence of these wonderful nerds. Its just a bit and I know I could bring my Tau to party any time!

[@xRaptorScreamx]

I don't even play, but 3d printed a Stormsurge :D

[@TheDjentleman1349]

I teared up abit when JP was reminiscing about Dark Heresy, it was a simpler time for all of us.

[@pgazzinelli]

Seeing this has made me miss Geoff again! I loved when you rollplayed 40k back then, and I loved hearing Geoff speak about his Titan and all of his models

[@Dracobyte]

BTW I got into WH40K thanks to TotalBiscuit (RIP) and Angry Joe.

[@zigzera7757]

RIP TB

[@frostyheretic299]

Rip

[@PelleStrandberg]

Sweet, RollPlay Dark Heresy was one of the first things I watched on your channel.

[@Dracobyte]

Rip Totalbicuit and InControl.

[@FDRTKOva]

​@@Dracobyte god, TB was one of my first contacts with Warhammer 40k I miss him and wish we never lost him.

[@Valks-1912]

You know what I JUST realized after watching JP‘s content for well over a decade? With all the shows (ranging from State of the Game to RollPlay etc.) he‘s done in the past he was (and still is) THE interconnecting hub between content creators. And I really appreciate you JP for still doing it. I think you said in the past that you‘re more comfortable being behind the scenes, managing and doing the producer stuff. I understand that, however it showed when you were in the Alvus Sanctuary that your old State of the Game/ StarCraft commentator / host / interviewer skills are still on fucking point. Same with the Dropped Frames Interviews of people in the gaming industry. I wish you well JP and I sincerely hope you succeed in your future endeavors. From a random internet dude Much love and as always: Thank you for the content JP.

[@JaziB]

Spot on. There are so many streamers/creators that I would have never known about if it wasn't for JP.

[@MrOmarkhaledbadr1]

R.I.P Totalbiscuit and iNcontroL, you would've been pleased ❤

[@Hazlius]

One of my favorite games I’ve ever seen people play on KZbin is “Warhammer or Yourhammer” where you give one real fact from Warhammer lore, and one made up fact, and the other people on the panel have to guess which of the two pieces of info is true. Would love to see y’all play this on the show!

[@watchthis8O]

Jimmy Space is Warhammer in my head cannon.

[@IGSkaarj]

40:54 I disagree that Space Marine was the first true test of the 40K IP in computer game format, that title goes to Dawn of War, which came about 7 years before Space Marine

[@JonBondgsr]

For me it was Fire Warrior that came out the year before that.

[@Frostbiite59]

Been playing through the Dawn of War games again recently and man they still hold up so well

[@acedias12]

Dawn of War for sure dragged me into the 40K rabbit hole. After the initial release of the first game, I dove straight into the wikis, reading up the lore. And that was followed up by a bunch of Horus Heresy novels.

[@kaealy]

Space Hulk 1 & 2 on Amiga and PC were the true tests.

[@DislocatedDesign]

What Thatbronzegirl says around the 47 minute mark about the variety of genres contained within the 40k setting and it being an emporium of inspiration for role-playing and/or writing stories that slot into the setting as sub-genres is entirely true. That's a real strength and very rare. I'd like to add that the Fantasy Flight rpg rulesets, published around 2008 to 2014, which were Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, Black Crusade, Deathwatch and Only War, cover so much ground in terms of lore and GMing potential. I was blessed to play Dark Heresy (Inquisition rpg) and Rogue Trader (Explorer rpg) for a few years around the table and they were the most imaginative and long-running projects & stories I've been involved with. I'm still writing for pleasure within the 40k setting and I collect, build, convert, and paint miniatures and build terrain pieces, I still read the novels, watch lore vids etc, such is my interest in 40k.

[@esweeney47]

I personally think that the stories of Ciaphus Cain would be the best gateway into the 40K world. It’s the tale of a “normal” man with mortal failings constantly getting stuck into situations above what he can handle. Yet he keeps surviving and succeeding, forcing him to get involved with something even more absurd the next time. A narration of his journal entries for his memories would open up a weekly episode. Combined with his private panic attacks and mental breakdowns, it would let our average viewer grasp just how warped the power balance is in the setting.

[@wils315]

I remember years ago a reddit post saying Ciaphus Cain should be played by Henry Cavil when others see him and Rowan Atkinson when he sees himself. And i loved that idea of visually showing how the imperium saw him as a hero and he saw himself as a man just trying to survive.

[@thisrogue]

THIS WAS AWESOME! I NEED 5 MORE OF THEM

[@RhapsodyBD]

Bronze really went " Hmm.. actually" at the end of the show, loved it. I definitely fall in " would like to at least try painting, and know more about the lore " category!

[@matthewhostetter8974]

I had heard of Warhammer and Warhammer 40K but never really got into it till I picked up the at the time complete collection of Warhammer Dawn of War 1. Instantly fell in love with the Space Marines and Grey Knights. I gave my buddies all the disk and we played hours of it. This led to attempting several PnP Warhammer games and playing many of the other games. I'm even currently reading the first couple of books of the Horus Heresy while playing Chaos Gate. I'm very excited about Space Marines 2. I'm not as big of a fan of Warhammer Fantasy but I still enjoy it. Hell Rogue Trader was one of my favorite games of last year. Warhammer has always been interesting because there is no real good or evil, just multiple shades of grey. Even the "heroes" of the stories usually end up dying tragic fates in an attempt to hold onto their beliefs

[@HistoritorJimaldus]

26:10 that’s a 40K Eldar exodite conversion

[@danthefool21]

I literally googled "warhammer 40k lore" and I found the Raven Rock youtube playlist. It tells the story of the beginning of man to the invention of the Primaris marines. Its part history book and part story book with a great narrator. The genius of it is that it explains/describes things as they come up in the history. That way the listener doesnt get overwhelmed.

[@julatsa]

This was brilliant. Lore and laughs is always a good time

[@fnkmastrbloopdebloop]

It warms me heart to see you're still doing you're thing. May your niche grow.

[@derNephelin]

that was a realy wonderful show. fandom in a way that made me excitet to do 40k again and i was so out. thank you

[@helevole2]

As much as i like the idea of a show about the HH, Ep. 1 starting with the line: "I was there the day Horus slew The Emperor... " That show would be cancelled after season 1. Without context they have no chance doing it justice.

[@Com1xguy]

Hope we can get another Fandom episode. Loved this one.

[@Arsenov92]

I want to add that the Sisters of Battle also drop fucking churches from space onto the battlefields, blasting harmons and holy water from space also on the battlefields

[@Azriel2k3]

This was an incredibly entertaining watch and would love to see more of this kind of discussion.

[@BloodyBobJr]

I bought 40k models like over 20 years ago and painted some of them. So i didn't really get into warhammer alot. Oddly I'd say playing Total war warhammer games got me really into the lore, with empire chaos, dwarves, elves etc. Then i stared to listen to audiobooks for 40k lore..and that really got me interested. Listening to Eisenhorn, ravenor and Gaunts ghost series really expanded my interest. Then lore from the books made me deepdive specific warhammer subjects. Also lore youtubers are great, mainly Luetin i listen to alot. He's very good at breaking down individual lore of complex subjects in 40k, like Rogue traders, inquistors, space marine chapters, psyker lore..you name it he has a very good video about it. Luetin is the lore goat

[@dsquared0023]

As someone who doesn't know much about WH40K but always thought it looked awesome, this video was perfect.

[@alimaty]

I loved every momeny, Also glad to hear so much shoutouts for TB and Incontrol Gosh dang it, Incontrol passed away aa year after TB almost to the tee... God have mercy their souls.

[@toshizue8627]

Holy shiest it's been a hot hot minute since the last Fandom.

[@Vernaleer]

Amazing show, would love to get another one about Fantasy WH or even Age of Sigmar just to understand that weird thing... at least make it a "Thon" goal again for the next one :)

[@kristian.karlsen]

Excellent show, loved it

[@TheOnlyWillyham]

Panicked when she said Dan Abnett had died and had to google it quickly. Thank god he is alive!

[@HistoritorJimaldus]

She meant the guy who recommended him to her 😢

[@TheOnlyWillyham]

@@HistoritorJimaldus Ah right, trouble with half listening whilst looking after child

[@DarqhelmetUSMC]

This was great. Holy hell TB has been gone a long time now. He would still be pissed about home many games are sub 60Fps. Miss that snarky bastard and co-optional. JP great show.

[@jamalbayliss8523]

😂😂🎉🎉😂Great panel we need more fandom warhammer, and bronze's warhammered show

[@Eiravel]

Video on why I miss Geoff. The reason and getway for a lot of us into 40k. For bronzegirl: Deathwatch has a dedicated rpg system much like the one played by jp and tb and incontrol. Just saying.

[@ThatBronzeGirl]

Ooh. Noted.

[@TycoPazifist]

I like all these people and enjoyed the return of fandom immensely. And four is a good amount of people so everybody has room to participate. That being said I can't help to think how Bricky would have fit in with this group. :) PS: Obligatory RIP TB and Geoff - they both have been very influental in me becoming a WH40K fan (in a big way through Dark Heresy)

[@davidtrainor9569]

I really want to see Warhammered!

[@HistoritorJimaldus]

Bronze should try some Aaron Dembski-Bowden - Night Lords!! ❤

[@Gnomenclature]

Don't feel bad, Bronze. The Tau are neat.

[@ValentineVoid]

Henry Cavil should just play Colm Corbec and make do with being a mortal badass

[@BrutalisDKGaming]

1:05:25 ... I'm a tank, I'm a tank, I'm a tank 😂😂😂

[@ParniniFlat]

I love that this is back

[@howitzah1111]

I enjoy Dawn of War and DoW2, Gladius, Chaosgate, Deathwing, Darktide, Inquisitor, Rogue Trader, and Space Marine I&2.

[@kaladinstormblessed9626]

great ep

[@Dracobyte]

For the Emperor!

[@andrewjohnson5365]

Never thought I'd be an old beardy.

[@n.henzler50]

Are Tau really the worst thing you can play in a game where Dark Angels exist?

[@AcousticDreamer89]

Ive never played, or have been expose to it. Honestly Im not sure where to start so I thought playing the game would be a good idea. I really wanted to play the first game to start somewhere but its a shame that the 1st game got increased $60. I got interested after seeing so many people talk about it. I guess Ill wait for a sale but it sucks that I have wait now. In the meantime I try to read more about it.

[@passdoutcouchpotatos]

Wait you remembered you had this series lol

[@thegrowingdarkness1377]

LETS GOOO!!!

[@austin4211luckE]

Where is Crendor?!

[@ZanDatsu]

But Tau do look cool

[@WatchSkitcher]

🙃

[@dicedoom7162]

they dont know what an eldar exodite is... bummer

[@ZeZwede]

Bronze's take on 40k and enthusiasm around 47mins is the truth! But what is this idea about Tau being embarassing? Really weird thing to say. someone has hung out at the wrong forum and/or store. You start with the mini's/army that you like. end of story. Cool shit exist in all the armies, simple as. some armies speak to some people, and other armies to other. Tau is also in the upper half of the armeis when ti comes to popularity, if i got the statistics right. (my first army in 2nd edition was the nids. Before someone goes "we found the tau player ;) ) As for Necrons and Tau, they dropped as their own full armeis in 3rd edition. they aren't new anymore. Necrons got their first book after. Is it an American thing, this Tau hate? Anyway, Speaking of videogames, Dawn of War was arguably the first really good/big 40k game.

[@BurkeBlack]

It's a joke buddy, not really a serious thing.

[@kaealy]

4 people that are 40K fans and can't recognize an Eldar exodite kitbash or Helbrecht between them. Props to the guy that saw that it least was a Black Templar.

[@cohomologygroup]

Is this sponsored by the website company?

[@Dracobyte]

No.

[@Echo1Vyr]

Imagine shaming people for liking a faction in a miniature game. The Warhammer fandom online is shit. Just enjoy whatever army you like. The haters can kiss your railgun

[@BurkeBlack]

Echo, it's a running joke in Warhammer its not serious, no one really cares what army you play. We're just kidding around.

[@dicedoom7162]

its more of a running joke, the army has been around for more than 20 years now. the fans are used to have tau as part of the 40k hobby.
