make the grudge over wgo has the most subs

[@jaszko9715]

The grudge was the bretonians did a yo gold is mine joke

[@brotherhoodofsteel4751]

Made a bunch of armor for the knights in exchange for payment which was never received or an alliance that they backed out of when they called for it.

[@user-5th]

Start guard army

[@JG-rw3if]

When will they have updated base sizes for old world? I have already bought hundreds of the sizes they have and would love to pick some up for 30mm square and 30x60 cav

[@TwoHands95]

The Grudge is that the Bretonnians commissioned the Dwarfs to build them a new castle, but they mistakenly forgot a single gold piece in the total payment to the Dwarfs, so in the book it goes and a War of Vengeance is required to settle the grudge.

[@wrathofthetentacool7192]

[@robertchmielecki2580]

And when the Dwarfs arrived at the castle, Bretonnians called their mothers "hamsters" and said that their fathers smelled of elderberries. That was just too much to handle.

[@satanicmuppet999]

The grudge. A bretonian noble put his mug of ale on the dwarf kings head first accidentally, then intentionally.

The Grudge: During a harvest celebration, a group of Bretonnian squires got drunk, and snuck into the dwarven camp. As a prank they shaved the beard off of one of the dwarves. The next day war were declared, as they'd unknowingly shaved the beard of the dwarf kings brother.

[@Antonio-qg3il]

“The Grudge” comes from an ancient fable the dwarfs tell, in which a Bretonian knight and a dwarf both embarked on a quest to save a princess from a dragon’s den. They got to the princess and were escaping when they were chased by the dragon. Crossing a bridge to safety, the princess went first but right as the dwarf and the knight were about to cross, the bridge fell to the void below. Without hesitation, the knight grabbed the dwarf and threw him across the chasm to safety and then the knight turned to face the dragon in combat. The knight was able to put the dragon down and eventually managed to get across the chasm by rapelling (just like primce charming at the beginning of shrek 2). But when he crossed to safety, he found his old companion bitter and betrayed. The proud dwarf was salty that the knight had taken all the glory for himself. To this day, when people of all races want to refer to the dwarfs in a derrogatory sense, they mimic the motion of throwing a sack of potatos and laugh at the dawrfs. The dwarfs now have a distaste for the bretonians, and still educate their youth to remember that “no one tosses a dwarf”

"Games Workshop has never heard of me.....but I do have a bunch of dwarves"

[@Hobbyrepubliken]

[@terryn9429]

The Grudge could be that a Bretonnian knight (maybe part of the Royal family) had a quest which ending in a Dragon being slain. That Dragon (Ve’goré) was the guardian to your Dwarves treasure. Great videos keep them coming. Terry

I love the texture you have added to the Dwarfs, your painting just keeps getting better and better. The Grudge could be the Britonnians ran an advertising campaign that their beer is better than Bugmans Beer. The banner icon could be a Bugmans beer standing proud and crushing a knight XD

[@williamamely7038]

Very nice paint job on those Dwarves, Jay. I am surprised if GW doesn't really know you, as your channel has a very respectable following. Your experience shows in the quality of your work. Keep up the great work you do and thanks for sharing.

[@ReganSpor]

The Bretonians betrayed the Dwarfs. They agreed to ride out and fight for the dwarves against Blue Orcs and when the battle started they retired instead of riding forth. Causing the dwarfs to fight a losing rearguard action. Never Forget Koom Valley!

[@darthyubnub3813]

To build off that that’s when there king lost his arms to the Blue orcs.

[@RebelHound]

[@danieledwards4821]

Youre the only person that has made dwarves actually look appealing to me, good job

[@harrybrass734]

really looking forward to more dwarfs in the future! please keep up this project! Also I think that the brets made fun of the size of the dwarf's war pony for being small, and that went right into the book!

[@Zomgog89]

Definitely 👍

[@chaosda]

The Grudge. On a visit to Bretonnia by your young lord(centuries ago). He we out drinking with a bunch of Knights and got so drunk he passed out. When he awakened the next morning he found that the Knights had played a practical joke and shaved off his mustache. This is the grudge of the Hairless lip.

I have a load of old dwarves all in grey, you’ve inspired me to bring out some of it. I loved the mining kit so much I have 4 I think.

[@christophersedgman5443]

If you’re going against bretonnians, put you lord on some shieldbearers, and get some hammerers. Anything equiped with great weapons is your friend! So stoked to see you doing some old world! Also with some movement trays you can use your AoS Sylvaneth as wood elves in TOW too! Good luck!

[@abyssalflame6562]

Gonna be a good day when you wake up and there is an EonsofBattle video! Great job Jay!

[@abyssalflame6562]

The grudge should be they sold the dwarves on a gold mine but it was fools gold! Damn 'ummies!

[@kenusaga]

Jay you deserve to be seen by GW. I was so excited and relieved when you spun your tale. So sad when it was revealed to be a joke.

[@wobblydan6304]

Grudge suggestion - Following the defeat of Orc Invaders, the Bretonian and Dwarf allies hosted a huge celebratory feast. At the main table, sat the Dwarf lord and Bretonian Duke. As the feast hit midnight, the drunk Duke spilt his wine on what turned out to be the Dwarf Lord's precious heirloom table cloth. Enraged by the insult shown to his mother's table cloth, the Dwarf Lord immediately ends the feast and returns to his hold. The banners could reflect a split chalice of red wine with the moon in the background.

[@ivankraljevic5041]

For the grudge - an arrogant bretonnnian lord, while dismounting his horse, purposefully dismounted on the head of a noble dwarf. Afterwards, he said "Didn't notice you down there".

[@KraikLockheart]

There's something about the look of warhammer fantasy armies that can't be beaten, and these dwarves look amazing! So excited to see what they all look like together!

[@vilva900]

Ages ago, the dwarven ancestors faced a brutal invasion of their home that led to the fall of the dwarven empire, Karak Ankor. Desperate for aid, they sought refuge from the ancestor's of Sean's Bretonians. Perhaps perceiving the dwarves as outsiders or not comprehending the urgency of their situation, the Bretonians refused to offer aid and turned the dwarves away. Feeling betrayed and abandoned during the dwarves darkest hour a deep grudge was fostered against not only Sean's specific clan of Bretonians, but also the race as a whole. As the dwarves clawed back their identities and empire through grueling hard work and suffering (that could have been lessened with the aid of the Bretonians), they now have the strength to act on this grudge in the coming battles. I like this because its gives a reason for the tension using a historic in game background without it being too outrageous. Skavens and orcs are kill on sight because of their evil nature. That is to be expected of them because they are an evil race. The "noble" bretonians ought to have helped but they didn't. They are the reason that the rebuilding of the dwarven empire was significantly harder than it needed to be. This would create an environment that was hostile but not in open conflict until a breaking point occurred over something silly like trade agreements or a dwarven emissary overhearing the bretonian leaders make a joke about height.

[@liamoneill7692]

The grudge would be one whispered amongst man's oldest stories. One nearly lost to time. The damnable humans were lax in their translation on a gift of finely wrought symbols of friendship. They translated a passage that used the word small using a Dwarven word meaning weak, of little durability, fragile like pumice. The humans, not knowing their error, presented this gift and were taken aback at the insult the dwarves took at the finest craftsmanship of men. In the ensuing row, the vow of vengeance was sworn. To weigh down the men in an eternity of war. Dwarves live long lives, and their memories are longer still. They fight on, never forgetting the slight.

Even though they cleared the den, the dwarfs accuse them of stealing their secrets of the forge.

Jay's a hobbit? I've always presumed that Jay's workbench is an unusually tall work surface; but maybe it is a normal dining room table after all, and Jay has been standing up all this time?! 🤔😄👍 Great paint jobs and enthusiasm as ever on this channel. 🤗 In the Pendragon RPG, one of the locations is a manor house, that has an "unusual custom". Any visitor has to fight the lord of the manor, and, if the visitor loses, they have to shave off their beard. This sounds like the sort of chivalric shenanigans that could lead to a grudge with a disgruntled dwarf.

[@michaeljdauben]

Your paint job on those old, old little guys makes them shine. 👍

[@wolfsyph9093]

Oh wow they were totally worth painting. They look so amazing. Can we please have some more Warhammer Old World videos.

[@HomeDrone]

The Bretonian Lord made a toast to the king of the dwarves at a banquet. It sounded more eloquent in the old world french spoken by the bretonians but he said something like "Your size and stature may be smaller than a blue orc, but that your honor is greater than that of a blue orc army." and of course speaking of the king and blue orc in the same breath was grudgeworthy.

[@petehill7465]

Just a thought for basing. I use a green flock, wait for the glue to dry, then heavy drybrush with bleached (ushabti) bone to tone it down.

[@FluteGnome]

I remember last yearish you were saying you didn’t really see a place for a Tolkien inspired rank and flank. - nice to see you’ve changed your mind :-)

[@Not_the_rat_king]

the grudge: After many years of distrust between the dwarfs and Bretonnians a treaty was finally made it was decided to be done on an open field however, the dwarfs insisted on bringing an ancient table that was made at the conception of their mountain home to write it on, the Bretonnians seeing no problem with this accepted their offer and met them on a large open field soon they saw almost a hundred dwarfs all moving in unison to carry the table on their backs eventually it was set down and the treaty was signed, after which a feast was prepared on the table, there were bountiful amounts of ale, bread, and, various hearty foods... however a young noble (insert name here) after finishing his ale set it down on the table without a coaster!! he did not pay mind to it but it left a terrible stain on the table soon enough the dwarfs found out and demanded payment, the Bretonnians saw this as beneath them. so into the book it went and the rest is history. (Feel free to change this)

[@everydayisfriday4885]

Sweet oldhammer army project! Excited for more

[@ThreeFootGood]

Those look SO GOOD completed. Grudge minis are so much fun to reveal that first time you play the friend that you're grudging.

[@Svengar]

The nonmetallic colours you used absolutely did add a lot more depth to the miniatures which let's face it are rather small since they are dwarfs and where the miniatures come from Skull Pass they just lacked a bit of depth to the sculpts to begin with. Really cool army concept and it will be great to see the full force done up.

[@jeremiefuller7312]

Great video! Love the painting. I have had an idea for making bases for a while now : a bog! This will be great for a Death Guard army (when I'll start 40k some day). When I saw your ''Falls stuff'', the shredded and dyed foam, I immediately thought it was made for that... Hope this inspires you!

Seriously, this is one of my favorite videos of yours. All the multi-shot painting parts 4:53 are super informative and fun to watch. Also, I'm going to coin a new term here based off of your video. "Complementary Flocking Theory"™ "Complementary Flocking Theory"™ or CFT: When one applies the foundational understanding of color theory while evaluating the hues, values, and textures of candidate basing material such as static grass, foam, cork, dirt, et al. to achieve a visual unity and continuity between the miniature's color pallete and the miniature's base. Your demonstration of CFT at 12:55 is a pleasure to watch Now please get to paining that enormous pile of Dwarfs you dropped at the end. The painted lads need their mates so they can beat that 30 silver out of those thieving Bretonnians.
