The old hammer stuff, especially the Fantasy stuff, still has a soft spot in my heart almost 40 years later. A nice sounding plan for the year. Good to see all the old models getting love real love and care!

Congrats on all you've achieved. Super keen for the Azhag video!

[@TheHolycj]

Thanks for the update and all your work! I don't comment on your videos since I don't feel I can add anything to beyond "great job!" as I've never played with miniatures and those games are older than me as far as I'm aware lol. I'll just say that I love the look of those games and I likely wouldn't have ever seen them if I hadn't clicked on your videos one day. My personal favourite so far was the videos on Man o' War, it's so cool to see fantasy naval battles with bloody sea monsters! I hope you have an amazing 2025!

[@arandomlostsoul753]

Wishing you all the best in this new year, really looking forward to more of your gorgeously painted models and epic battle reports! Also I love how you give a shoutout to Ed at Minisodes for inspiring your own personal style of battle reports. You and him make the best batreps on this site in my humble opinion, your passion for this age of Warhammer really shines through.

[@thecrownofcommand5830]

@arandomlostsoul753 thank you so much and Ed is a legend. And I hope to have in back in our Splatter Natters to paint and talk 40K with us.

[@misomiso8228]

Ok so sorry for all the comments - Epic was my jam back in the day so am just very happy to hear about the content, and I love Warhammer Empire as well! So good! 4:07 You say you are having a secret project shipped from Australia - where are you?! I thought you were Australian! Are you in the UK? Epic -Would love a classic 8k 'duel' battle between and Imperator Titan based Imperial army and Double Mega Gargant Orc army. -They don't get much play, but Chaos in Epic was AWESOME. Would love a Chaos V Eldar or Chaos v Imperial army. Some of the Chaos Daemon engines (Tzeentch) were very overcosted though, and Chaos was notourisley hard to play, so they may need some help. To make them competitive you had to maximise the number of greater Daemons you took, but that meant less of the weird Chaos units. -As said before, some mini 2k games, or 4k single faction no 'super big stuff (Imperators, Mega's, Battle groups)' would be great! 10:05 On Battle Reports, you could have a look at how Miniwargaming does them. They don't have to be super produced, and they film them in a way that is easy to edit / requires no editing. You don't need the big super produced battle reports that other channels have, so don't be too hard on yourself when editing! Best dude. done with commenting now!

[@thecrownofcommand5830]

@@misomiso8228 thanks for the questions and no worries mate. I’m An an Aussie expat living in Japan. Happy to hear the love of Epic on the channel too as it’s a personal favorite. In regard to battle reports, I really like the new style and it is rewarding at the end of a lot of work to see it finished and out in the world. So one batrep a month is no big stress really.

[@ktg8030]

That’s funny about the Wyvern. I was surprised to see mine bend over on its own too, as it’s an old original. I have seen a variety of ways that people have propped the neck up, but I chose cutting down a clear flight stem, rather than building up scenery to support it. So far it’s worked and doesn’t really distract your view. For years before that I used to just place a dice under it lol.

@ yeah if you see the White Dwarf pictures of the dragons you can see they made scenic bases to help prop their bodies up. Super happy this one is as solid as a rock though.
