Is anyone else having problems watching freeview stuff on the app? Really laggy. Pretty much in watchable. But it works fine on YouTube???
So good to see maelstrom back!! Please make this a regular event, they’re so entertaining to watch. Also have you considered picking any of the multitude of narratively focused missions from the campaign books? It would really mix things up with unconventional deployment maps and victory conditions. Both Vigilus books have a really good set and they’re still perfectly functional in 9th. I played one a couple of weeks ago and it was an absolute blast, with objectives appearing at random around the battlefield each turn of the game.
Love it when beard and chef play together so much fun and energy lol 😂 I’ll bet we all wanted was for the ork dread to explode we was all willing it lol 😂 couldn’t believe it when it did was like yes 😂😂😂
Excellent. Nothing else needed to comment here.
This was amazing, so much fun, so much enjoyment, so much sillyness.
From one of your long time fans, a huge thank you to the team from me. The new additions of Jinx & James have both been perfect fits, the content you produce is still the best 40k content in the world.
Long may it continue, merry christmas and happy new year guys.
Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the maelstrom game. Easily the best version of 40k there has ever been, close games with some randomness rather than the bland lethality of 9th edition where every single game plays the same way. Also, really enjoyed how much you guys enjoyed playing this! Thank you for putting the work into making these rules work for 9th – something GW clearly aren’t interested in after their abortive white dwarf maelstrom abomination.
23:30 Jinx: “Come down to Bath, we’ll get together and play some Maelstrom, have a few laughs … . 😉💝
“I don’t wanna hear that statistical nonsense”
This is why Beard is a Legend!!!!
That, was the BEST!!!!!
Maelstrom for the win! Just really throws constant spanners in the works and forces armies to have to adapt on the run and pick different lists to accommodate the unkown.
One of the best and funniest games ever.
Bring back maelstrom!!! So so good. One of the best games in ages!!! So much fun.
The director himself has said Die Hard is a Christmas film. Sorry Jinx!
This was great fun to watch. Are you just using 8th edition cards to build the decks? Never got to play maelstrom but it seems fun.
I’m starting to add BAAAAAAAABBBBBYYYYY to the end of most of my sentences and is now ingrained in my vocabulary so thanks for that Beard ❤️ I now really want to play a game of maelstrom, awesome video and an great starting point for me as I’ve just started collecting Crons for the first time.
P.s Die Hard is a Christmas movie masterpiece
I agree with Katy. Die Hard is not a Christmas movie!
Well done beard you magical man! And Chef – always the wizard. I just love watching your games because you just know everything. Its terrifying. Jinks! Smashing it behind the camera. Just so good I have nothing more of value.
Whaaaat a game! Really enjoyed this one. I had to laugh so hard sometimes 😀
It’s nice to see and feel your friendship. It’s almost like playing with my mates 🙂
Really enjoyed this one. Fun match and maelstrom was a nice shake up.
My Favourite video for a lot while!!!
28 mortal wounds from an explosion is absolutely amazing! Had a big knight explode and take out 1,000pts of my army recently (including a Lord of Skulls, who also exploded) – it’s just hilarious!
Yessssss. I miss maelstrom, “hold…hold…hold more” is getting a smidge boring.
Please feel free to play as many games of Maelstrom as you want ! The fact that the rules are dated does not affect the entertainment at all. 🤩
This was a fantastic game to watch, would love to see more maelstrom in future! Oh and Die Hard is absolutely a christmas movie, to say otherwise is heresy.
Maelstrom is so much more fun. The standard game is just too chess-like at this point
Okay Chef I need your expertise. If I give a unit the benefits of cover with for example the Ablator, do rules like the Imperial fists straight up ignore that?
I loved the return of the Maelstrom!!! I have missed it. Great game!
Sorry Jinx but Chef is correct. Die Hard is the greatest Christmas movie every made! Followed closely by Lethal Weapon. Check out the Die Hard Christmas book on Amazon for more proof.
As much as I enjoy competitive and the experimentation casual games, it’s great to see a fun game of maelstrom again! So excited for the future narrative battles that Lawrence alluded to as well.
Great game guys, hugely entertaining!
Going to watch this bundle of joy whilst assembling bits from shadow throne and painting up more minis. Go go Maelstrom!!!
They are people like us who know Die hard is a Christmas film and those people who are wrong 🙂 great game as well as a good laugh, always love a good Maelstrom game
Oh my, oh my, I really wish you played Maelstorm even a tiny bit more often, it brings back memories, and it just the pure enjoyment to watch… Also, good to see some good old Xenos on Xenos action.
when can we see Chef’s magnificent skills with the Thounsand Sons again?
I never liked to play Maelstrom, I hated it in 8th… but I love to watch you guys play it! You manage to make it fun and entertaining even for grumpy old me.
P.S. Die Hard is “THE” Christmas movie. Ignore the naysayers.
I have to say I am REALLY enjoying that you are showing unit movement on camera. It makes it a lot easier to understand the flow of the game and I hope you guys continue to do that. Thank you as always for the shows!
@Admin: Will Bone come some times as guest and play warhammer on the channel?
This should be interesting
Die Hard is the greatest Christmas movie of all time. “Now I have a machine Dakka. Ho Ho Ho.”
Beard, Die Hard is a Christmas movie and I will die hard on that hill.
Yasss my 2 favourite Xenos
I hate to say it, but: PRIMETIME BABY!
Groooovy time with logic necrons and operatic Waaaagh
Maelstrom, yeah!!!
