For the guy that's pursuing the university girl, just remember, if it's not a hell yes, it's a hell no. There's a good chance she will say something along the lines of "I like you, a lot, but I'm so busy blah blah blah blah so I want to but I can't right now." The worst thing you can do to yourself is believe that and let yourself get strung along. It's hell yes or hell no.

Tonite of Northern gear, James builds his first army, Hammond gloats at a child and I seduce a group of over 40s

Solid advice for choosing and building your first army 👌 another great video northern, thanks!

The buggest investment into warhammer isnt the $$$ its the time and energy you spend building and painting your models. So always always ALWAYS buy what you love. Do not get something because budget or even in game power.

The girl that does not respond right away or who won’t commit to a date, may have a boyfriend. She hangs with the writer when she has time. This may not be terrible. Play it cool and don’t be needed. Treat her the same way friendly but non-committal. If she and he boyfriend break up that may be your opportunity window. However, don’t he the other man until she is broken up. Have honor and integrity. You will feel better about yourself long term.

Literally shouted "Nah bruv, 4th is iron warriors mate!" at my telly

I friend of mine in college who’d recently divorced after marrying early and serving in the military started going out with us. He was awkward but tall and funny. He had many options very fast and ended up getting a teacher pregnant shortly after his divorce was finalized. Damn. He seems to be doing well though. Good for him.

I love building my Battlefleet Gothic list while listening to your videos. I found the Battlefleet Gothic to Warhammer 40K conversation book for boarding actions. Gave me inspiration to build together my whole set of lists with a narrative connecting certain transports to the companies of Imperial Guard they deliver to the battlefront. That and getting a Rogue trader character for Warhammer 40k.

I find the more recent excuses of using the satirical elements of Rogue Trader and 2nd edition to explain away the bad novels and lore writing extremely tiring. Yes, 40k was at one time very satirical but 3rd edition of the game started to shift away from that. I remember my first Black Library book I got was a big story omnibus Let the Galaxy Burn, and all of the stories were grounded, serious narratives.

Just getting back into Warhammer after a 25 year hiatus. Listening to your channel reminds of the old days.

Hi Northern. Love the channel, fast lyrics becoming one of my favourites. Just checked out composite games for an infernal master and enlightened tzaangors, can't wait to get them and paint them up. Keep up up the good work 👏

Also, especially if you are into hordes: get into blue stuff moulding and copying. Will save you much.

I love the deathwatch for the customisation options too

Good advice on the girl. Friendship also requires honesty.

28:50 It felt like dora asking a question. I was yelling IWs 😂 Good to hear you have your Iron Within. #IWIW

Hey North one advice I could give to the guy interested in playing imperial guard and orks is he can always start with KT. H3 can grab the octarius box and get both and everything he needs to start playing.

I agree. Don't listen to anyone about elite armies etc. because of the cost of money. Back in the day when my buddies and me started playing Warhammer Fantasy, one friend started started playing Chaos because one GW employee told him they were the strongest, but something about the playstyle or the look he didn't like and ended up collecting high elves afterwards, and in the end bought 2 armies where only 1 was needed.

I think selling astral blade conversion parts would be an interesting idea. That way we can support you, get something physical and be able to have a representative of the Astral blades to be put beside our forces.

I love the idea that GW thinks that telling people not to take the piss is going to stop people from taking the piss.

Fuck I love you north, "you know how it happened!"

NIGE, YOU DAWG

There are really only two stratagems that I use with my Grey Knights. And it's for my librarian. One to extend the range of psychic powers and the other to roll one extra D6. And if I'm feeling spicy I'll use the strat for him to cast another power which would be smite. All in all, stratagems are fun but bloated. Way to many of them.

100%, don’t look at rules, price, meta, none of it. Just buy what you think is the coolest, and you’ll enjoy it so much more.

Another good one!

45:55 Nigel literally did nothing wrong. Sleeping on-and off together every few months is not a relationship and it clearly does not seem he ever promised any of them one. But yeah this story is a perfect example of why normal looking men usually can't get a girlfriend and think women are superficial while women think all men are fuckboys. It's a funny story, and l believe it is unfair the Nigel guy was kicked out of the store and shamed by the other's there. 48:20 I don't know if I can agree with that. There is a lot of men who do not understand the appeal of cheating or would never do it and statistically the amount of cheaters between men and women barely differs. I think the discrepancy is within 5% of each other. An unjustifiably harsh generalisation 50:00 Murder is murder. I am not a hard-line no-sex-before-marriage type of guy, but you should not have sex with someone you could not imagine having a kid with. Whatever 'she went trough' she killed a person out of literal convenience, she was not raped, there was no medical reason. She had sex with a guy she was not even dating and chose to kill a person to skip the consequences and from how the story goes the father didn't have any say in whether or not his child lives or dies either.

The guy in the first story played his strat wrong. Models in engagement range can still fight. It just turns off the 2nd rank from being able to attack.

The story about the discord lady persuit. If people like you they will message you regularly because they'll be thinking about you. It takes 1 minute to send a message and minimal effort. There's a lot of women who will string you along and stay friends with men who find them attractive, to massage their ego. Don't fall into this trap!

I'm super stoked for next Tuesday's "unpopular opinion" theme. Have a great weekend!

I think a lot of these issues with bad attitude are an age thing. My son is 9 and I see a lot of this at his club football. Even the players on the same team are digging eachother out constantly. If I were coach, it wouldn't happen, but a lot of people in leadership positions are there four the right reasons but are not strong enough to lead properly.

I will go and support u on patreon in 10 minutes. Amount and intensity of thoughts and internal dialogue I have each time I listen to stories sent in by other listeners becomes painful.

don't know if you discussed it (or want to) but I'd be interested to hear your thought on Scott the Miniature maniac/GW NDA thing as someone who may have experience with GW and their NDA's

cheapest way to get into 40K is a 3d printer

Did anyone else buy box dreadnoughts in preparation for the new Horus heresy edition and then get annoyed to see they don’t have rules

The Discord link doesn't work anymore.

last i heard gw didn't themselves shut down text to speach it was the people behind it responding to gw's broad ip guidelines

Bricky is the host of a really fun and down to earth intro to lore channel kzfaq.info He's also a founder of the dicecheck channel

Gents some advice: NEVER EVER FOR THE LOVE OF MAGLUBIYET BANG WITHIN THE GAMING GROUP! if you love the hobby, leave the females in the group alone!

Wtf murdering a baby over that

15:33 I can't tell you genuinely don't know who he is or if you are making a joke.

If you play imperial guard and don't use stratagems, you lose. And you'll probably lose even if you do. And is it just me, or is competetive 40k full of douchey frat bros? Love your stuff, per usual.

GW rules are so ridiculous.

Theres only one conclusion to take from the discord girl story. Your meme game was weak.
