Here's wishing all you wonderful listeners a Merry Christmas! I hope you all have a wonderful Holiday filled with food, fun and spending time with good friends and family!
The show will resume in January as we've decided to take a break for the Holiday season to pay attention to what is truly important at this time of year. Which dependent on who you ask may just be our kid's, but we all know it's really getting presents! :)
Thanks everyone for your continued support in 2010!
And from our friends at GW it appears to be a new Minotaur model sneak peak just for us on Christmas!

So apparently our last episode was big enough to use all of our allotted monthly space via our webhost. lol! Oops... So Episode 27 is officially on hold until our space refreshes. Thanks for your patience everyone!
So while keeping in mind that GW has officially announced that there will only be a Baltimore Gamesday next year they have released the picture of the special model for it. A Chaos Sorcerer. Oooh yay... I'm unimpressed and displeased in so many ways. It'd be nice if one year they would do something other than Chaos.

For our comeback episode after being very sick for the last two weeks we have a sponsorship by Ryan G. We talk about our escapades from 'Ard Boy'z Round 2 and how we came out there. We also have about a 20 minute piece we recorded on the way down to O'Fallon, Illinois where we played at Fantasy Games. We chose 3 listener e-mails to read and discuss. Our 10 Minute Terrain YouTube video that was supposed to come out with the 2nd episode of October that never happened is finished and put out with this episode. We create a ruined stone tower.
For News/Rumors we have a short discussion on Fantasy 8th edition, provide you with some links to multiple forums; then move along to a bit about Beats of Chaos, the newest Avatar of War mini, the Black Library releases for the rest of the year. Core Competency, 'Ard Boy'z Round 3, Adepticon and end of year GW releases as well as just mentioning the fact that Skaven are official now. Hope you all enjoy the extra long episode for us.
The 10 Minute Terrain video by the way was rejected by YouTube for being too long. So it's on my ISP space and we'll see if I can manage to overshoot my allotted Bandwidth and piss them off. So it's below in a Java Applet for Windows Media. I'm not real certain how to control a Windows Media Applet so if it starts automatically I apologize. Thanks!

***Note : It has been brought to my attention that the video will not play on some operating systems such as Windows 7, Linux, etc... As such here is a link that you can right click on and save as the 10 Minute Terrain Video. Sorry for the inconvenience.
To the listeners, Apologies to everyone for the show as it stands at the moment. We are not only behind; but will continue to be so for a bit. I have been taken quite ill over the last two days and will be doing nothing; but sleeping for a while.
Chuck and I did record some stuff on the way to and from the 2nd Round of 'Ard Boy'z, I will try to get that cut together and posted at some point while I'm ill; but I wanted you all to know that the regularly scheduled shows will be on pause for a little bit until I'm better. Sorry and thank you.
Joe

Up for advance order on GW's website the new Skaven models. Below is a pic of the new Plague Furnace/Screaming Bell model. It's a single kit that builds one or the other. Link to GW's Advance Order Page below.
So I had to clear out some of my FlickR photo's because of size constraints. This may or may not effect some of the older posts as far as linkage goes. Sorry for the inconvenience of anyone that was looking at posts and images are missing.
As Oct. is a long month; we may end up waiting an extra week to put the 2nd episode out for this month. Were not sure yet; but I just wanted to make everyone aware that it is a possibility.
News/Rumors : Fantasy Campaign, Avatars of War, Painting Contest
Unit of the Month : Dwarf Warrior
Feature : Basing Discussion
This episode is brought to you by nobody! Which is a travesty! Get off your duff's and sponsor a show folks! While there was plenty of mail it all centered around the "10 Minute Terrain" video from last episode so we discuss that only lightly. For news/rumors we talk about the little floating around at the time of recording this episode. A possible new worldwide fantasy campaign and models to accompany it. New Avatar of War models, and a painting contest on the show forums.
For the Unit of the Month we pick up Dwarf Warriors and give our thoughts on how to use them and what we think. Finally for our feature we discuss basing techniques and options to use for your army. What we tend to do and consider standard work and what we'd like to do or are doing in the future with our own armies.

New white Dwarf Subscription model photo for this year's subscribers. Sadly not a fantasy mini; but it appears to be the Space White Dwarf holding the Space Black Goblin.

10 Minute Terrain : Stone Fencing
Feature : 'Ard Boy'z Preliminary Scenario's
This episode brought to you by Tor Egil Staalesen who's e-mail simply says that he enjoys the show and wants us to keep up the good work. We answer some listener e-mail from Chris, Dwarfenstein and Johnny hastings from Pointhammered. For news/rumors we discuss the newest issue of Tales of Battle, the review of Chaos in The Old World by the D6 Generation, some upcoming fantasy GT's over the next couple of months; and finally our e-store hosted thorugh Zazzle.com so you can go check all that out.
We start our "10 Minute Terrain" video series this month by showing you how to build a Stone Fence section. I'm not sure that 10 minutes is going to be long enough; so I'm thinking I may have to call it "20 Minute Terrain" and bust the tutorial videos into two pieces. I want you guys to leave me some feed back as far as the YouTube video is concerned and let me know if you go the jist of everything I did. If everyone decides that it's too rushed or hard to get I will have to switch to the two videos. For our feature Chuck and I go over the GW released Preliminary Scenario's for the 'Ard Boy'z events and discuss the special rules and how they effected our list choices.

Sorry everyone; there has been a slight delay on Episode 24. Was in the middle of editing the other day when my computer froze up and now I have to go back and re-do the entire thing. Not the show; just the editing. With luck I'll have it posted either tonight or Tuesday night.
News/Rumors : Space Hulk, Azhag, Basing Set, Bad Dice, Mini-Wargaming, 'Ard Boy'z, Chaos Dwarf's, Demon Prince, Deemonettes, Plaguebearers, Skaven
Unit of the Month : Empire State Troops
Feature : Buildings
This episode brought to you by Jon MacDonald who's e-mail is just way to long to mention here; you'll just have to listen. E-mails from Bryan and Chris discussing terrain and some more video podcasts. News and Rumors see's a pretty heavy amount of stuff. Discussing Space Hulk, the new Azhag The Slaughterer model, the upcoming Advanced Basing Set, the Ben's from Bad Dice making White Dwarf, our Mini-Wargaming affiliation, 'Ard Boy'z rules and participating stores, upcoming plastic models and a boatload of Skaven Rumors!
Our unit of the month that Chuck and I discuss is Empire State Troops. Since it may be a while before we get around to doing another full army review; particularly for Empire we hoped this might satiate some of the Empire players who want the review. For the feature we discuss the rules and uses of buildings on the tabletop! Why don't people use them; why they should and why they can play pivotal important roles during a game.

So I've joined the corporate machine. I now host a store over at Zazzle.com pawning WaaaghCast merchandise. I'll add more of course later; but for starters I just threw some stuff up there.
For anyone that is perhaps a food man like myself and enjoys anything on the food network this is for you! Apparently at Baltimore Gamesday they had Duff from the Ace of Cakes show (Charm City Cakes is the business name) make a cake of a Giant Squig. Well apparently it was for the MMORPG so it was supposed to be a Squig Herder in his Squig Armor, but freakin awesome cake anyway!
Feature : Last years 'Ard Boy'z Scenarios (Rnd. 1 & 2)
This episode brought to you by Anne Orde who says "I've only just discovered the show and have been listening to the episodes while I paint my Warriors of Chaos. Just got into the double figures and love it so far, keep up the good work! Got some e-mails from Seth and Doostan along with our first voicemail comment from Jon asking for an Empire army review and what we think is the most balanced army. We find that I have gotten my blog up for my Spring Wood Elf theme which is linked over on the right side of the page under the FlickR gallery while Chuck still works on his.
For the feature we dig out last years Scenarios for the 'Ard Boy'z rounds 1 and 2! We discuss the special rules involved along with what we both did and did not like about them. We discuss our lists as they stand currently and then take ourselves out to battle. Due to the length of the show and the fact that we basically stopped recording around turn 3 I did not include the battle report with the show. However Chuck wiped the floor with me. Way to go Chuck! ;p

The Space Hulk information. There are a ton of cool pics of the stuff in the first link and I wont bother linking them all here; but this is what I've found so far.
So it's official; I have begun my Wood Elf army. The blog is up and you can check it below. I've also attached the first couple pics. One of just my ton of stuff and then my 1st real piece of work which is on my Great Eagle conversion. The link to the blog is also over on the right side of the page below the FlickR gallery link.
FFG has done their news videos from GenCon and for those interested on Day 3 there is a demo of the game being played!!! Go check it out; clip is 2 minutes 10 seconds in. Kind of interesting and nice to see the board and some of the pieces along with a little bit of game mechanic.
Fantasy Flight Games has put the rulebook for there soon to come board game Chaos in the Old World up in .pdf format on their website. Haven't had a chance to read through it yet; but it is 32 full color pages. Nicely put together from what it appears... Links below!
