Well, it is the end of a very busy Saturday here at Adepticon. We hope you have enjoyed it as much as we have bringing it to you. Remember we are giving away 2 VIG Swag Bags AND there is Dawn's Favorite Contest for your chance to win either a Dark Age Starter Set or Guildball Kick Off Starter Set!
Good night, thank you for all of your works!
For Dawn’s fav: my two fav videos were the GW one and the AoS one, but I might be biased 🙂
Have a good night of gaming! Thanks to your video I jumped in on being a late backer for Wander The Cult of Barnacle Bay. What a great deal, and I wouldn’t have learned of it without Beasts of War Adepticon coverage! Ciao!
WOW that is super.
What would I do to get these rewards, I would go to kiss Frog Beast. 🙂 🙂
(not very encouraging perspective but what you do not do for great fun)
I liked the interview with This Is Not A Test and Relicblades. I wanted to see these games, I hope you can answer my questions.
What it is barely evening there in Chicago… and no pics of the next release on Shadespire…
Well that would be because GW hasn’t shown any other than what they showed in the Studio preview.
What would I do after I won a starter set? Well….buy merch of course. Ok in addition to that it would open my gaming experience to beyond just historical based war gaming so who knows what could really happen.
Being as if I got the dark age starter set it makes getting started for a friend and myself and my Birthday is right around the corner so that would give me a new force to expand with some Birthday money.
Good night great job guys.
Thank you for all the amazing content as a newbe to table top wargamming i have learned so much from watching your coverage alone not to mention everything i watch on the channel. Favorite Video was the one with CMON, i am absolutly obssessed with Dark Age right now. and as for where i would go from with the starter set its a tough one because both armies have a lot of choices for the Ice Caste i would have to get some Slaves of course, and then pick up some Blizzard Units, and as for Saint Issac i would look into getting two Strikes, and probaby a Coil at least to start.
Final Stretch!
I haven’t watched them all, but I really enjoyed the interview with Alex Davy about Legion. He seems really excited and happy that the game has been received so well. I also liked the interview with TT Combat and the hawk wargames folks. However, the one with the kids and their dad talking about legion was really fun
Good night and thanks for the Adepticon coverage.
You two and your team are doimg an amazing job. I always dislike the night before the last day in these events. Bitter sweet. I am hiping to hit Adepticon 2019.
Wow. Not hiping, hoping is the correct variation of the word. I thank you Hauptmanncanuck.
Great work guys, the interview from GF9 was FANTASTIC! Great information. Thank you again for the Alex Davy interview.
How far would I take the start kit for Guild Ball? Easy, I would aim to get enough people together to have a weekly league even if I have to get 4 different sets to get the league started.
As far as Dark Ages — since I have yet to see it being played locally, would happily do a demo night at my club and see if I can anyone interested.
hi guys!! great coverage thank u!…what I would do with any of these two games would be to start a community for any of the two on my city.. I live on the Dominican Republic and there are really not that much of a wargaming culture… I would try to organize my friends and family, teach them how to play and start our own wargaming community… I have been playing games like W40K and Warmachine with my brother in law but games like Guild ball would be so much better to get people into the hobby, are easier to learn and its more accessible… that would be my idea..
It’s been great coverage as usual. Let us know what you thought of vanguard, maybe on the sunday wake up video, oh and I suppose some people may be interested in your impressions of hellboy 🙂 While you’re at it what about everyone letting us know what shinies tempted them, we know the entire army of france was purchased but there must have been more; let us live vicariously through you!
So I have to say both days my favorite videos have been for Legion. It might be because I spent yesterday buying all the new releases and putting them together. I also spent today driving my son and daughter crazy getting them to play the game with me. Loving the game. As for where to expand with the starter sets. Guildball is easy since the starter gives you two solid teams, pick the team you like the best and add some more players to the roster. As for Dark Age I would say grab the faction book and add what models based on your play style. Great coverage again today, thanks team.
I really enjoyed the interview with Bryan Steele. He always seems so enthusiastic about Dark Age. If I had to pick, I would want to try out the Dark Age starter. I already play Hunters and Brewers for Guild Ball.
You guys do an AMAZING job with these and I really do feel do some of the very best you can find anywhere. Looking forward to the Dust stuff tomorrow hopefully you can talk to THE MAN himself. The family video was my fav yesterday do to it really showing what this is all about so great find there, though I love that you guys talked Rumbleslam too 🙂 Today would be the Mantic Video, Tomorrow will be the Dust video 🙂 As far as what I would do with the Starters, well Guild ball I would try to find a few others to play with and buy myself a third guild to play. Would do the same with Dark Age as well as I’m not as familiar with the game that said even if I don’t win I think that’s going to change as the models look very cool,
You’ve convinced me to go to Adepticon next year! Schaumburg is only like 3 hours from where I’m at (Dubuque, IA) so I really have no excuse. I went to Gen Con in Indy one year, but that’s not really focused on war gaming. Is it worth going for one day? Or should I really make a weekend out of it? Keep up the great videos, Dawn and Gianna!
You guys are spoiling us too much.
I hope you enjoyed Mantic night.
Favorite video, that’s a hard one, I like the video with the interview of the father with his 2 boys who played star wars legion.
Many thanks for the coverage. I really enjoyed it, especially the crystal brush entries. Very inspirational.
You´re so incredibly busy, take good care of yourselves and how long will you be going on vacation to recuperate? I visited the Land o´ Lakes in Wisconsin, ages ago, and you might go there, rent a cabin and take all the minis and games you got from Adepticon (obviously a cornucopia of stuff, the horn as big as one from a Watussi cattle) with you and paint, play and pfeel good (gamer´s 3p).
Unfortunately I can´t tell what video/section/coverage I like best, because they are all quite good and there are more than 10 in the lead with a cornucopia (ah, that´s fun) of runners-up standing ready.
With o cornucopia of best wishes and good luck for Sunday, s. y. s.
Night of Hellboy
Good Stuff
Favourite video from Day 3
Uncle Atom
App already loaded
Ado, whack-a-do to you, too. The coverage just gets better and better. Now, an expansion to Guild Ball? Why is there no Dungeon Explorer’s Guild yet? It seems like the obvious team to me. Would a dragon mascot be a bit too much? Maybe a fire breathing baby dragon?
Have fun playing HellBoy guys. I am sure it will be a blast!
My favourite video that I have seen so far would have to be the Carlos interview at the Corvus Belli stand. I dont think there is a guy more passionate about what he does for a living and can convey that energy of his work with such an awesome character, Love ya Carlos!
Thank you for your awesome content 🙂 You bring gaming to my house 🙂
My favorites of today were the pirate guys and the panda lads, but Uncle Atom was close too 🙂
From the previous days, probably the Gangs of Rome and Relicblades was the most interesting for me.
Can you please give us some feedback on Corvus Belli presentation? the best video got to be the interview with Carlos, that guy just gives the best feedback, he loves his products , he is super fun and down to earth!
Amazing work. The coverage has been great. For my favorite videos, the Gale Force 9 live stream (which I could not catch live do to work) was great. Love me some D&D. LOve the fact that I was introduced to several games/systems/ranges that was not aware of, that is always cool.
For the games you giving away –
I already have the Guild Ball starter set, I actually play the brewers. If I was to win that, I would probably give it away as prize support for a local game or event, or while demoing to other people to get into the game.
For Dark Ages, this would probably kick me off with playing the game and would look forward into getting into that. Faction book,and expanding to get more and more into the game.
Keep up the good work guys, love what you have done so far keep it up.
Flattery won’t get me anywhere……. Hmmm….. Dawn, you’re going grey!
Thanks for the coverage and the additional prizes!
Well, for my day 3 vid, i’ll go Star Wars (of course 😉 )
How would I go beyond the starter box? 3d Guild Ball Terrain. Wallls, trees, paved areas. It’d be great!
Well, on the off chance that Gianna get’s to pick a favorite comment, let’s talk about how incredible historical and modern games are. I personally can’t speak to their greatness, but seeing the enthusiasm for them is catching. Keep up the good work.
Still have to catch up sunday… tomorrow.
This coverage was wonderful! You do a great job!
I’d teach every kid I work with to play Dark Age and Guildball if I could have those 🙂
Goodnight all. Thanks for bringing Adepticon to us.
My favorite video was the Saga one, great game and great to see an awesome community building effort. As for building on Dark age or guild ball, more dragyri and the new hawkers woot! enjoy Hellboy night!
Good night BoW America.
Thank you for this day 🙂
I think every day the Star Wars Legion coverage was the one that interested me most
Pick a favourite? You guys are funny! I already need a second mortgage and a time machine to be able to buy and have time for all the cool stuff you’ve shown us so far!!!
If I was going to expand those games… it’d be Skarrd for the Dark Age set… I’d have to do a whole blog of painting, playing and expanding in either case…
Even more prizes??? And more kick off I see. They’re also giving it away at their new venue. It looks more and more like they are depleting their stock to make room for something else.
Thanks for the day’s coverage!
a great show/weekend guys.
This day was fun to watch! For me, hands down, the Roman historical stuff was the most exciting. And the vikings, of course 🙂 It’s nice to see plenty of vikings 🙂
(Pirates comes second. Always be yourself – unless you can be a pirate, because then always be a pirate.)
So this is dir the bags.
Thanks for all the great videos so far. Looking forward to watching the Sunday ones even though it is days later.
Luckily I don’t have to wait long 🙂 The Star Wars Legion posts were the most interesting for me, I can’t wait to have that game in my hands. I do hope some local retailer will order a copy or two 🙂
That was nice 🙂 You are great! I’d love to have a chance to get Guildball, but at least watching the Dreadball second edition videos now is almost like having a chance to play 🙂
Yay! Great stuff as always…happy gaming!
This was a fun day to watch! I’m mostly into Historicals, so I liked those the most. Also, the pirates stuff, no matter how historic that is 🙂
The day was lovely! I wait for the next one 🙂
I feel that the Warhammer displays and showcases are the most stunning, but I really love all these interviews and stuff so I get a broader view of the industry. (Even if I probably never have a chance to play most of those.)
This coverage was really a pinnacle!
