I feel like that should be reversed. I think Rob is the only thing keeping Louise for going off the rails

[@RobTheWarGaymer]

I love that Juggz is basically group therapy for the three of you. You set a great example of how friends and partners (or flatmates) should be reassuring, supportive and cheerleading for each other, especially in our community where some of us struggle with positive human interactions. The way you lift each other up is very wholesome.

[@iiiiiiiiiicecream]

@@RobTheWarGaymer it's maybe my favourite thing about the show. I recently got an adult ADHD diagnosis, and seeing how this group talks about neurodivergence has been really helpful

[@jcobevans]

just want to write to express my appreciation for the three of you. remember that the whingers and incels are hyper motivated to comment, but you don’t hear from the 99% of people who love to watch your things and have nothing bad to say. so doing this just so you hear a bit more of that. I had a shitty day today and came home stressed and feeling very down. listening to you guys broke me out of it and got me up doing human things again. always have time for you and always understand when you guys need to take time for yourselves.

Rob, I want you to know I really value all the AOS4 videos you have put out over the past few months. I have started a escalation league in my local community and if it weren't for your videos, learning the rules would have been much more difficult. I definitely understand the drain and want you to know I appreciate the hardwork.

My favourite idiots calling non-tourists tourists was when someone called John Blanche a tourist.

[@vallasch]

Reminded me of the time someone told William Gibson that he just didn't understand the genre when he said the initial Cyberpunk 2077 trailer just looked like retro future GTA. You can't educate pork. 😂

[@warpwingminis]

For the Rascal animal size "issue" I think you should introduce a mighty "scalcerer" who is a shaman-type wizard that brews and bakes Alice in Wonderland style "eat me" "drink me" concoctions. These can size up or down animals, companions and mounts. Could also tie it in with the Mario power up mushrooms trope. I'm imagining a witch doctor Getafix (from Asterix and Obelix) but as a Goblin

[@Ishlol1]

I’m having a truly miserable period of my life, don’t have the energy to work on the hobby at all… But a new episode of Juggz makes me smile, makes me happy and makes me feel like I’m still participating in the hobby, even in this “down period”. Thank you for doing this! ❤

[@thomasjgamble3865]

i don’t know you but i can relate. it does get better…hang in there, and the minis will still be waiting for you when you come out the other side

[@paulcable2538]

Keep trucking my friend. The miserable periods come and go - and I hope it doesn’t hang around too long for you. As hard as it is sometimes, try to stay positive - things work out in the end, even if you can’t see the wood for the trees right now. You’ll get there…. And when you do, the hobby will be there still. Take care.

This podcast is unreasonably good. All three of youse are treasures. It's always a massive highlight of my week and I appreciate you all very, very much for taking the time to put it together! Favorite 3 minis of the last 2 years: 1. Harbinger of Decay 2. Abraxia, Spear of the Everchosen 3. Daemon Prince/Lion El'Johnson (tie)

[@PeachyTips]

❤❤❤ aww thanks

[@halfblindbear]

There is a difference between detail and being busy. Gamesworkshop miniatures have crossed the line from detailed into busy.

[@PeachyTips]

100% this!

[@crisismethodactor]

At this point I think they’re just making these horribly cut-up, over detailed models to keep them from being 3D scannable.

[@PluckeesChannel]

Just listening to Louise talking about being called a "tourist" - I've started doing some streaming of painting, and literally first day of streaming had a guy come into the chat, started talking and he just straight up complains that "girls are ruining the hobby". I'm just aghast at the brovado of these absolute tools. Solidarity with you, Louise, don't let the bastards grind you down.

[@kwest9747]

I think they are jealous. Make up is a super popular hobby for girls, it really helps understand highlights, shading, colour, blending, etc which has so much overlap and transfer with miniature painting (particularly for faces, which are super tricky). Likewise, lady’s fashion has so much scope for understanding design, which colours and patterns work well together, how to build an overall appearance and accessorise properly. So when a girl or a woman steps into warhammer their very first models can be mindblowingly good - both in creativity and execution, and I feel like this builds resentment in guys who feel like these ladies have got results without doing the work for it.

[@Raygun9000]

It's not bravado, just a low resolution heuristic. Like racism based on significantly bad (or good) experiences with a certain race. There are so few women in the hobby that people actually interact with. If those interactions are negative it can skew people's assumptions. Beyond that, a feeling of jealousy of unearned attention may cause some viewers to prickle. You have natural advantages (we all do), be aware that others may be resentful of them.

[@PluckeesChannel]

@@Raygun9000 yeah I think bravado is the wrong word, but my internal thesaurus stopped working for a hot minute there!

[@Raygun9000]

@@PluckeesChannel I'm not sure if it'd help, but acknowledging the advantages of being a woman in a male space may blunt these clumsy attacks. Ignoring them is probably the easiest and safest path however.

[@karstedt9987]

[@TheDude_Jonathan]

Another great episode guys. Got to say I enjoy Robs voice of reason on these, with Peachys enthusiasm and Louises imagination you guys would make for a great game of D&D Also I think another word for value is perspective, everyone has a different one.

[@InfernosDragons]

Hey Juggz, I just wanted to say I watch all three of you and have done for years, starting with Peachy on Warhammer TV, to finding out about TheHonestWargamer, to seeing Louise's journey from Warhammer+ to Rouge Hobbies. I genuinely cannot express enough how helpful you lot are to getting me through my weeks, I listen to videos/livestreams whilst at work (don't tell work!) and it gets me through those days. I look forward to next Juggz video each week and it is inspiring to see what three neurodiverse people can achieve. I got diagnosed with Autism when I was 20 and have struggled to adapt to the working world and its nuances and recently found out I likely have ADHD after being picked up for it. It's inspiring seeing what all three of you have built for yourselves, and it gives me a drive to get there myself one day and create a career first myself that I enjoy where I can mould it to my differences. You are all too humble and need to realise you are all entertaining and helping do many people, Rob especially! You may not think you are successful but loads of us tune in live to listen/watch you talk about the hobby, even if you think its old or outdated information many will watch it regardless. Please do keep it up all of you! You are all national treasures

[@tinyfishhobby3138]

I really appreciate how much of Juggz is a great mix of "content creator/KZbin" trials and tribulations and processes as well as a healthy dose of "behind the scenes at GW" and insight into GW minis, productions, releases, etc. Keep up the great discussions, ya'll.

[@DotJus]

Louise, please keep doing you and just follow your interests. The variety of topics and insane quality of your vids is what keeps me coming back.

[@thegreyjedi]

The Dark Angels updated minis wowed me. I'd been making due with the Blade Guard to get the feel I love for Inner Circle and robed veterans. But the new sternguard minis, the Inner Circle Companions, Azrael, Asmodai, Belial all getting Primaris. I NEED A NEW EZEKIAL. And getting a 40K Lion release was amazing. But I think some of the Kill Team units lately have been more Wow Factor than the mainline 40K releases of late. I didn't feel anything particularly put off by them, but I didn't feel terribly excited. I got invigorated to play around a little with Combat Patrol, but that wasn't big new model releases.

[@DreasEst]

I love that Rob was almost certainly running from "it's tough being a man in the hobby..." to something along the lines of, "... so I can't believe how hard it must be for women in the hobby with the other things they need to worry about..." - but everyone jumped down his throat so fast he hasn't had the chance to finish that sentence all these episodes later

My favourite three, lovable tourists 😂 Louise - that lore video was sick and very polished. More please. Peachy - your battle reports are sweet. Been watching more and more of your stuff lately. Chuffed to see you getting into the swing of things. Rob - I know it’s tough being a man in the hobby right now, but chin up, it might never happen 😅

[@UrsineWrath]

This is the first of these videos for a while that's been allowed through the IT content filter at work, which is *fascinating* given the rat stuff. Hopefully not the last time I can enjoy your Juggz on company time!

[@Drakenholm]

Love how every episode can be summarised as 'Rob does his best to reign in two over-sugared painting goblins. Mostly succeeds'...

[@Vaellas]

Obviously love everything you guys do every week. Always a good laugh. My top 3 favourite 40k minis are probably all the Lictors with Deathleaper, Lictor and Neurolictor. All very similar, I know, but I do love them and I am someone who did not like Lictors at all before. The detail, different styles on the same Lictor concept and tyranid with claws are awesome. I will say I do love the Inquisitor that Louise mentioned so much too to the point that at the time I wasn't even collecting 40k at the time but I grabbed him because of how awesome he was and just the style going for him and it tells a story just by looking at it especially with stabbing in to the book. Also with the Farstalker Kinband Kroot that Peach mentioned I was so excited to see new Kroot come out when they did and love their variation. I still need to build and paint them but with new edition for Kill Team I am inspired again.

[@stijncallant457]

The you tube streamer Filmdeg Miniatures does interviews with some of the old developers (Rick, Andi, Jervis) from GW and they talk about some interesting things around GW decisions. And I think that it is in the Necromunda that Rick says something about the creativity for design.

I actually love Rob’s idea that rascaltown exists in a baby’s first laugh. Reminds me of discworld.

[@karstedt9987]

Being so lame is what makes it so great. I kinda want that to be like the world tagline now. 'Once upon a time, in a baby's first laugh, there was a place called Rascaltown..."

[@alltat]

It would also mean that getting there is quite tricky, but possible with enough luck (or creepy stalkery dedication).

[@wardruchii]

Fully with Louise on the 'Emperor's dead, his energy comes back to enhance a new era of Marines' idea options for the Imperium, really like it. I was kinda hoping when Guilliman came back, GW would take the chance to shuffle the deck... get a 'loyalist - more 'hero' faction of Marines' with Guillimann being the true heir to the Emerpor's throne vs the corrupt Lords of Terra who turn out to be the main problem behind a lot of whats wrong with the Imperium, so not having them chaos, just corrupt in the sense of greed and power possibly even going down the older lore path that they have been stopping the Emperor from dying, so he can't be reborn as part of their grasping for power, technically another split within the Imperium, while everything else burns around them.

[@themidnightaristocrat]

I love how supportive Louise is of Rob. Wholesome.

[@jorgemontero6384]

I hope Louise saw that Vince Venturella's latest skaven video is featuring some of her paint set to make glowy warpstone for skaven. It was also stahly's favorite set from the three monument released in adepticon, and for good reason

[@larrywagner1432]

As a girl dad I 100% appreciate that when Louise ask what she did wrong the boys immediately said, she did nothing wrong. You didn’t nothing wrong Louise, keep loving what you love, and doing what you love.

[@Rotheric]

20:33 I get that Louise is angry & frustrated about the "tourist" comment, but it bears remembering that idiot brigade literally called John fucking Blanche himself a tourist on Twitter. So, first of all, she's in really good company. Second, everyone's a tourist in their eyes, because they don't really care about the hobby.

I almost never comment on things, because I find the internet not worth participating in, but this video has moved me to comment. For some perspective, I love your podcast. It's actually the only one I watch as I tend to find a bunch of people chattering a tad mind numbing, so this should say something about the wonderful personalities you all have. And for the record, I found this THROUGH Louise, so yes, you do reach randos out there in the hobby and your lore video was ace. It really spurned the creative ideas and it was very cool to watch. Anyway, this comment will be too long and I'm sure almost no one will read it, but it is on point for the your last discussion. I got into the GW world with Dark Future... I know weird, and Battle Masters from waaay back. It was extremely hard to get this stuff where I'm from at that time as no stores carried the material and my mom didn't know much about anything nerdy other than what they had at large toy stores, and the local comic store just had comics back in the day. So, I never got into Warhammer proper until about the 2000's and I thought all the things just looked amazing. Then I graduated college got a job for the 10th largest bank on Earth and worked 7 days a week dealing with one crisis after another with them until the subprime market crashed in 2008... and I was done dealing with their BS. For a looong time I didn't have the time to think about or participate with gaming much, went back to school changed careers didn't think about Games Workshop for near 20 years... then I found out Necromunda came back and that's what drew me in. It wasn't 40k, it was Necromunda. Because the sculpts were absolutely amazing. I literally bought every model they produced, because they were so cool (yes I am still building them all.) But this is all to say, over all the years, even though I've been in and out, from a design standpoint the new 40k models don't wow me. My girlfriend has always enjoyed Fantasy, so she wanted to give Sigmar a whirl and we bought some of those models and they are leagues better in design than the 40k stuff that I've bought more recently. I totally agree with Louse (as per usual), I rather thought the Stormcast were a boring set, and I was dismayed that Skaventide was Skaven vs. Stormcast, since my partner wanted all the new Skaven... I was really pleased when I saw the Stormcast sculpts and genuinely thought they were badass too! So you're all on point with that as far as I'm concerned. 40k does have some stuff that it does very well, terrain and vehicles. Although their vehicle designs are pretty much the same they've always been for years, but that last hoorah with the Mechanicum terrain was incredible. At this point the only thing I look forward to in 40k is terrain. Like Peachy I LOVE the Kill Team sculpts too, that's where the real 40k design energy is as far as I'm concerned and it's sad they will not be making vehicles (well, I have Necromunda for vehicles technically...) Anyway, half the time I buy the Kill Team kits to use in Necromunda! The new Trenchcoat Squats in Kill Team... I mean, that's just an amazing gang in Necromunda waiting to happen! Sorry for the long post, kudos for reading if you did. Keep up the great work, love the podcast and the other videos you do (Don't want to leave Rob out, been watching your Old World vids while I make my Brets). Anyway, go get some sleep.

I agree with Peachy about the Coteaz mini being a victim of a too short deadline. My theory is that the eagle was originally part of the sculpt like the original, but then it was decided at the last minute to remove it for use as an ability marker without giving the sculptor enough time to make Coteaz look interesting without it.

Juggz is quite possibly my favourite thing on KZbin! I keep it as a little treat to listen to while I hobby. Favourite 3 releases for 40k in the last 2ish years have been 1. Celestian Sacresant Aveline 2. Cerastus Knight Castigator (I know it's technically 30k, but Imperial Knights didn't get a new mini in 9th, so I'm stealing this one) 3. Inquisitorial Agents It's kinda weird thinking about it now, 40k is the system I'm most into, but also the system I've been least keen on the new releases (or lack thereof) for lately.

The discussion at 1:36:09 feels like the new sanguinary guard to a T Somehow something happened that kept the project from really getting ots wings under it

[@jasonbradley2004]

Sanguinary Guard used to tell a story. The new ones look like generic super soldier with gold armor. You could tell me they’re from crysis and I wouldn’t question it. 40K has been on a downward trend for me since late 9th. It does feel like a lot of the soul is being taken out of the game and minis. MESBG is where it’s at. Although I’m cautiously optimistic about the new edition.

[@albinofreak620]

“What am I doing wrong?” Louise, if you’re pissing off the right people, you’re not doing anything wrong.

[@jamfjord]

this 100%

[@Sysero_]

I’m also reminded of this line from Picard: “It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness; that is life.” Sometimes people are just shitty and look for reasons to inflict harm. It’s not about right/wrong logical/illogical.

[@Gryndir]

Reminds me of the quote about how you know you’re going the right direction in video games because the bad guys try and stop you. Same thing works here

[@NathanLazyBear]

I agree the 40k hasn't been super exciting, everything has been a blank canvas to convert from, or be easier to paint and put together. I've been putting things together to ride the hobby wave and update things along with the edition and the releases, but most of my hobby purchasing has been new paint and rule books. Everything else has been tweaking and adjusting from the last two editions. The last new model kits I bought was the Inner Circle companions and Belial for my Dark angels.

1:17:00 favourite 40k releases from the past couple of years; 1) Votann Hearthkyn Slavagers Kill Team (sorry, not intentionally Juggz meta chasing, genuinely love these, especially the lugger) 2) Votann Sagitaur (imo best looking and fun to paint vehicle in the 40k range) 3) T'au Pathfinders (they're cute lil gundamz) Any of the Kroot releases almost made the cut.

First off I love this show, and I’m happy to be a Patron. I am a long time fan of Peach and Lousise’s content. I am not a major games/rules person, so I was less aware or Rob’s stuff but now am I a big fan and subscriber of his as well. So, for what it’s worth, I am super intrigued by the take on 40K. I’m a 25 year plus Warhammer fan. Historically I was more of a 40k fan, but for a number of years I’ve been more of an AoS person. And the way you describe 40K is actually how I feel about AoS more and more lately. I’m less plugged in on 40k these days, so I just don’t have opinions refined enough to be useful. If I haven’t been quite as wowed, it’s also just less what I’m looking for lately. But for AoS? I can’t help but feel it’s gotten a little more… conservative in its designs, over time? Seraphon, Lumineth, and now Skaven feel in many ways like really well done versions of refreshing an older range. Like, don’t get me wrong, absolutely gorgeous, but a lot of them seem like they could mostly feel not out of place in the Old World. And as nice as they are, they aren’t nearly as conceptually wacky and outside the usual archetypes as Idoneth, or Kharadron, or much of the Sylvaneth range. Similarly, going from the outlandish realm cults of the original Warcry to the cool but much more traditional darkoath feels like a more restrictive design brief. I look at those and think: “Wow, that makes me want to do an old world Kurgan/Norsca army.” Not a band thing, but it’s not what made me fall in love with Age of Sigmar, and that change is part of why I’ve gravitated a bit more towards smaller indi games and historicals. Sorry for the literal essay, been chewing over this subject for a while.

Happy Birthday Louise 🎉🎉🎉. Your lore video was awesome. Your enthusiasm made it one of the best Lore videos I have seen in a while. Remember, dont feed the trolls. Just ignore them.

Happy birthday to my favorite non-tourist with a sweet personality and unapologetically dirty sense of humor gal in the hobby, Louise!

Happy Birthday, Louise !!! Will spot y'all milkshakes some day!

[@Wijkert]

Favorite mini questions are always fun to answer. Very hard to remember what came out the past 2 years though. My top 3 in no particular order: Lion El’Jonson, Vashtorr the Arkifane’s, Commander Farsight

I think that the Space Marine releases for Horus Heresy have been great. They are just really perfect space marines. The armour marks, poses, all great. They can be really good - but still very simple.

Happy birthday... to me... oh and you two as well. I got a cold and a nap this year. I think trying to make 'everyone' happy with the space marines is leading to the 'nobody being happy'. The 'wow' factor is often less about the skill with which the models were sculpted, and more about them having an element that people can connect with. So when you have something strange/weird/crazy, people come up with funny ideas in their head that 'connects' them to the models. So freakin' up your weird lil' guy is exactly the thing that hooks people. You done nothing wrong Louise, just sad you have go through and delete that stuff when you post a new vid. Rob's shout out is on the money, you flex bravery to compensate for low confidence and being scared... most people flex something else in that position. And your Peachy head cutouts is definitely a signature thing, and glad it extends into your mini-series. I hope every one has a Pvt Peachy to die a heroic but ultimately meaningless death. It goes toward your vibe of being a part of these imaginary worlds. Will you be a fascist red suit toady, or a rebel homeless man in the V story?
