On The Painting Table 089: Moany pretend gamer?

[@basement1908]

Great looking stuff Dom! Glad you got to vent! We have a fun saying in the Intensive Care Unit.... You can't fix stupid, you can only Sedate It! GDA2 is going to have to stay in the Boot Room for solo-gaming or multi-session games (most of my GDA games last 4 to 5 days).

[@BootsontheTable]

love that Steve!

[@robertsmith8520]

The Victrix Celts look great, severed heads are obligatory. The Cromarty Iberians are great as well, there should be a new "epic" scale version of the sculpts coming soon. I'd say pay no mind to the grumbles. Having the vids out there enriches the hobby especially as I don't have access to a club and for most of the year don't have access to the paint desk. Keep up the great content so long as you keep enjoy putting it out there.

[@BootsontheTable]

cheers Robert, much appreciated . I will do them as long as people continue to watch them!

[@oldschoolfrp2326]

Some serious painting progress across eras and scales (looks like a real wargaming channel to me)

[@BootsontheTable]

;) cheers

[@unaccomplishedwargamer8716]

Great update! I remember when warlord did their sprue sale and you could get stories for like $1-2 each. If they ever discount that deep again my wallet will be hurting.

[@BootsontheTable]

yes thats what I recall - not that good anymore sadly :(

[@ShaunTame-re5us]

An enjoyable watch thank you. Cheers.

[@BootsontheTable]

cheers mate

[@ShaunTame-re5us]

[@BootsontheTable]

cheers matey

[@grantpavitt3198]

[@wargameshobby]

Good update Dom. Nice rant too, quite right on all fronts. Oh, and I have 28mm ACW, must have a BP with them one day. 😁

[@BootsontheTable]

i didnt know that Alec..... i better get painting then!

[@paulbenson9015]

Nice one Dom, great update. I certainly love those Cromarty Forge figures very tempting....and very well said, I agree, wot a load of absolute Bollocks!👍

[@BootsontheTable]

cheers Paul

[@carlburks887]

Great rant Dom, I aree GDA2 is too big a game for a club night. Keep it for the boot room as solo or a full day game.

[@BootsontheTable]

cheers mate - I really like GDA2 but yes maybe not a club night

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Lovely work all round Dom

[@BootsontheTable]

cheers mate

[@robandrosehobden3344]

[@iainthepict55]

Been busy, didnt know perrys were putting their prices up,as i was going to get a couple of boxes of their acw cavalry,oh well,im trying to do a mosby vs custer cavalry battle when ive got the time to do it.

[@BootsontheTable]

yeah sadly all the prices are going up in the hobby, metal and plastic has gone up so much

[@jvcpaints]

Love those Iberians, Dom! Jealous you've got such a vibrant club. It's a desert on Mars around here for gaming lately.

[@BootsontheTable]

cheers mate - yes the club is in great shape right now which is awesome

[@HistoryandDice]

True wargamer sounds like true metal back in the 80ies. I really love some Manowar tracks but that was as BS as this idea is. Also it is the same buttoncounter debate all over again.

[@BootsontheTable]

good point

[@robertalanbuckle9809]

nice job Dom , nice little figures and nice paint job

[@BootsontheTable]

thanks mate

[@grantpavitt3198]

Good morning Dom .question where did you get them easy shield transfers from please

[@BootsontheTable]

thanks. They were by a chap called 'Carthage Will be destroyed' - he has an Etsy store which he sells them from

[@grantpavitt3198]

@@BootsontheTable Thank you very much for that info. Will check him out

[@grantpavitt3198]

@BootsontheTable Hi Dom is the podcast on tonight. Or next Monday as I believe Martin is on holiday cheers

[@BootsontheTable]

@@grantpavitt3198 on Ste's channel tonight mate

[@wc9109]

Well said Dom! Keep up the good work and share the love of your £500 with your long suffering wife lol

[@BootsontheTable]

not a chance lol

[@MattVarnish1103]

I have my site set to not monetized.. but its frustrating that YT just throws on their stupid ads anyways. its why Ive slowed down putting up videos....

[@BootsontheTable]

yeah its annoying that they give us no real control

[@peterweston189]

I think what you described with GdA is interesting. I seem to recall that the BP rules specifically say that BP was developed to have half a chance of completing a game in an evening. A case of horses for courses perhaps?

[@BootsontheTable]

indeed i think you are right BP was designed for exactly that

[@roguetrooper5401]

Great looking stuff as always Dom . The world is full of self opinionated muppets what can you do I live my life by the idea you only get one go around so do what makes you happy sod what people think you might want to look at the perry's battle in a box for acw 28mm good value

[@BootsontheTable]

cheers mate and thanks for the suggestion

[@martinradcliffe4798]

Find these "ultra-purists" in almost every hobby or pastime. Feeding their own ego on the whole. Best ignored.

[@BootsontheTable]

true mate

[@markhartridge4379]

thanks Dom, you probably have already looked at Pickett's Charge rules for your ACW, but definitely worth a look for large table games in the boot room. Very good period feel which now as an old gamer seems the most relevant thing (my own written 'detailed' rules in the past would find us spending an evening playing out 3 or 4 one minute turns!). Keep doing your own thing and ignore the 'fault finders'.

[@BootsontheTable]

yeah we played a couple of 15mm Pickett's charge and really enjoyed them

[@paulspaintshed3511]

Great paint jobs as usual Dom. I think the Romans may have their work cut out at Crackcon. Agree with the other stuff mate. You do you and sod everyone else

[@BootsontheTable]

Romans going to get kicked :)
