Wish they'd bring back Epic. We used to engage in system assaults by first engaging in space combat with Battlefleet Gothic, then move to the planetary assaults with Epic, then finally fighting select individual battles in 40K. It was simply INCREDIBLE to stretch a campaign out through all those games.

I came from Germany for this, i paid 430 euros in accomodation, and i spent3 days of quees, i didnt get to play any games because i didnt booked the tournaments, and i didnt try the new 40k because i refuse to stand for 3 hours plus. i asked for a refound, it was absolutely not worth it for me and i feel completely ripped off. if i as around the corner sure, but i will never go to another official warhammer fest, i feel dumb for spending this amount of money for this.

yep, it's a common business/marketing practice, sadly. "you shouldn't like and follow the people who make the stuff you like, you should follow The Brand". people are disposable, The Brand is what matters. it's not the designers who make Warhammer, it's GW. that's how I see it, anyway.

I've been in the void for quite a few years with regards to GW and 40k lore but, the last time I went to Warhammer Fest all the artists, miniature designers/sculptors, codex writers, background lore in codex writers, 'eavy Metal Team, playtesters and all the other amazing people were credited by name in whatever codex, rulebook, side of the box that contained miniatures they designed, etc. When I returned from the void, all of that hard work was now thanks only to some enigmatic entity titled, "The Games Workshop development team", or something equally as depressing. Remember Jes Goodwin? Graham Davey? Alex Boyd? John Blanche???!!!! Well, now it doesn't matter.

You basically described exactly how I remember Games Day being. I remember waiting in line for something one year, and an employee had a rolling cart with the Lord of the Rings game on it that we got to demo while we waited, which was great. But by far the biggest thing I will always remember was meeting Studio people; this was right when the big Dark Eldar revamp in 5th edition was happening, and I got to meet Jes freaking Goodwin, Phil Kelly, and even a young Peachy! (I think Adam Troke was there as well?) I'm a giant fan of all things Aeldari, and getting to talk to Jes Goodwin and Phil Kelly, being able to flip through Jes's sketches, was the coolest thing ever to teenage me. I can't imagine not having those sorts of interactions with the creatives.

Hi, cashier at the Warhammer Fest store. If I took a drink for every time someone complained about the ques, I wouldn't be typing this. I was there for five days, two days setting it up and three days serving and taking it down, four days working overtime as well. It was bit mis-managed from my own experience and from customer feedback, some people speculated it was done intentionally but that feels a bit farfetched. I'm glad people complained because most people made a joke of the ques but said "I haven't done anything yet but I'm enjoying it". I just appreciate honest feedback. This was my first ever Warhammer event I've ever attended and given what I was told about their statistics of attendance this was the biggest one they've ever had with 20,000+ attendees, which I speculate they vastly underestimated. 10,000 people on Saturday, 6,000 Sunday and 4,000 Monday. Then again I don't know what you do at Warhammer Fest normally so I could be wrong. There was also a lot of thefts as well due to the layout of the store area being poorly designed as well as the 10th edition and store ques ending up at the store exit. I tried to enjoy what I could but having to balance my break with sightseeing it was difficult but did what I could. Heck, I even got to kill a titan and shout "engine kill" in a titan fight, that was pretty cool and seeing the cosplayers. Also if you saw a staff member glaring at you, that was me. Not out of malice I was just trying to figure out if it was you or not and I've been told I have that kind of face sadly.

Im really glad people enjoyed it, even when i didnt. And im sad i didnt, it doesnt give me a kick to moan about things, it was more frustrating giving the benefit of the doubt and feeling dissapointed and let down the more the weekend drew out (and as a solo atendee, it really did draw out!) The cost of travel accomodation and parking for that venue was a real drop compared to previous venues, and the content abailable for three day tickets just wasnt there. It was great the amount of community and social content but it wasnt provided by gamesworkshop it was paying customers! It felt mismanaged, but i have endless respect fornstaff that still got the job done in the midst of all that. I hope that is a wierd aberrant year and next year will return to what made previous games days and warhammer fests so good, and to a venue better suited better located and with some good day management.

I've never played Warhammer, never painted a mini, I mostly enjoy the games and the books and the general setting. I'm glad YT suggested your channel to me because it's been an absolute joy! I might be an outsider so... who knows how much my opinion matters lol, but it's pretty disappointing to hear that there wasn't any Warhammer staff or Black Library authors there? It's nice to see other content creators and such but when I've gone to comic con's or other events, my favorite thing is just seeing the people who make my hobby a reality. Seems odd to not have that.

I've gotten into the hobby for almost 6 months now, I had to talk to GW support one time because a seller on Amazon pointed any help inquiries directly there. I bought the Scions of Macragge box to start my Ultramarines collection and Tigurius was missing a leg piece. I checked the box, all of the sprues to see if it fell out and was stuck and couldn't find it, I emailed support, and while not the fasted responses, they straight up sent me an entire Tigurius even though I was asked if there was just an upgrade sprue or something I could take from to use which was unbelievably helpful

honestly, you're absolutely right, the best part of the events, the parts of the two games days i went to that i still remember and tell people about, were interacting with studio/BL/ETC staff (getting a book signed by Graham McNeill, embarrassing myself confusing a Juan Diaz sculpt for one done by Jes Goodwin when gushing over Jes' work when i met him out the front, only to be digging my way out of that hole when my friend took over and gushed about the dark eldar sculpts) whilst maybe a tad rambly, those examples are the tings that made/make events priceless, so i'd hope so long as the staff are willing to come to the events, that they aren't sidelined as seems to be the case, as i cant tell you what i bought at the two games days i went to (other than dreadfleet, maybe space hulk) or what i built, but those human experiences are the ones that stick, even something like (!!?) fifteen years later?

This popped up through the Ol' algorithm, so thought I'd give it a watch. Thanks for sharing your experience in such a positive way whilst also explaining yourself clearly and offering fair critique. I think your spot on at 17:30 I unfortunately couldn't make it to This one, but have attended previously ( both at the Ricoh in 2018 & 2019, and Gamedays at the NEC) and one of my favourite experiences was meeting the studio staff. Chatting with the army painters and finding out which armies they don't enjoy painting. Or meeting Jes Goodwin (my favourite designer) and pawing over his sketch book and discussing his design process. The hobby is at its core about personal connection, both to the miniatures and others, and having the ability to engage with the people who help bring these worlds we love to life was great.

From working in events, I know they need to keep a lot of space open for attendees to generally walk around (health and safety reasons), which I do feel like was needed especially on Saturday. But it does feel like outside of pre-event ticketed things like the workshops, Kill Team Live or the tournaments, day visitors had not a whole bunch to engage with. Maybe a bigger venue is the solution so they can cram more in? Love the idea of things like a Necromunda area that's all themed etc and a few beginner boards, with other systems getting a small space of their own around the show. Maybe even merging the tournaments into those spaces. Either way, glad you had a great time and it was lovely to chat to you briefly!

After that we avoided all the queues by being tactical with our time… we got straight into the Painting Hangout first thing Sunday morning with no queue, and timed the Pin Paint for late Sunday when it was quieter. Fest was an amazing experience for me!! But that was only because we planned things out quite carefully

I was there for just the Monday and had a really good time, but at the same time I didn't bother queuing for any of the events. So we got there at lunch, walked around and talked to people running the booths, looked at golden Daemon and bought the fest models. If I'd been there for the whole weekend or travelled from far away I can imagine being annoyed but as a just day out it's great.

Very informative video, it was interesting that you saw the event from a public side. I personally didnt go as ticket, transport and accommodation costs were high. The cosplay section looked amazing and your outfit was very detailed. After hearing your comments about things to participate totally agree queues are massive, so you walk off looking for something to get involved in and end up in another queue.......might try next time

I agree with your points, I remember going to Fest when 8th 40k was coming out and adamant I wasn't interested as I was always a fantasy player who got back into the hobby when my son was old enough to play AOS...because of the things to do I came out rebooked on Blood Bowl and picking up the 8th starter set when it launched. Open Day was the same, the Q&A sessions with the studio team and the passion they had got my talking to staff who showed me what I was missing with MESBG which I adore!

This was an awesome video! Warhammer fest looks like a ton of fun, minus the queues anyways 😅

They could introduce a registered queue. When you can scan QR code and get a notification when it’s your turn, or just good old numbers and screen which shows what number can come next. So people can do something else when they’re waiting in queue, or join multiple queues.

Great video, reminds me of games day 1996 me and 3 friends went. We were 12 and got to ride a coach from basingstoke to Birmingham by ourselves with no adult supervision. Had a great day buying chaos spacemarine stuff and just running about eating sweets and looking at all the massive games tables. Got to see the golden demon stuff though we were all garbage at painting back then coz of gatekeepers at the painting tables and no KZbin’s to teach us the way. 😅 I remember we were really excited about the spacehulk game?! And we made a massive paper airoplane and threw it during a presentation and people started cheating it and throwing it about. Then someone either wrecked it or stole it and they got boo’d pretty hard. The 90s were pretty rad 😅 apart from all the rage outbursts I’d have whilst at school from chomping on lead miniatures all the damn time

I bumped into you on Saturday to say thanked for everything you to to improve the hobby. I agree with everything you said in the video. I think if I hadn't bought 2 tickets for the tournaments I would have been done after the first day. I'm sad I didn't have time to play 40k.
