Even if you usually skip Age of Sigmar lore, I'd love for you to stick around for this one cause it's REALLY FUN and I had SO MUCH FUN writing it :D

@PheobeBragg 2 жыл бұрын

Actually that was the first Age of Sigmar video I have watched. I had no idea that it is all your dream journal 🤣 Yet something else I hope the inquisition doesn't find. Clever way to address it though ☺️ Good show sir. Your effort and love are apparent in the product. Your little sub mythos is so well so well founded and written at this point I basically consider Oculus canon. 😊 Thank you.

I am trying to write a piece of AoS fan fic for the community to have fun with it maybe (most probably nobody will read it but either way). I always thought that your writing, especially vocabulary and sentence construction and sentence into paragraphs are perfect. Can you say where did learn these skill or where should one turn to reach the same result. Thank you so much.

The idea of Gargants earning glory by emulating the feats of Behemat is interesting. We see a lot of the violent and gluttonous acts but Behemat also stopped a volcano. If I make a gargant Stomp I'd have them be all about firefighting, specifically stomping out fires. They'd be more helpful if they made any distinctions between uncontrolled blazes and the many controlled flames used by mortal races. Many daemons of Tzeentch have learned to fear this stomp.

Whether someone wants to admit it or not, but the idea of "Giants only" Warhammer аrmy is brilliant! Literally: people came to the shops, saw the Warhammer Giant, almost wanted to buy... but they asked: how can I play with this? And of course they were answered: easy! You just have to buy another orc or goblin hero, a couple more goblin squads of 60 models each! Glue and paint! For the most part, people preferred to buy 10-20 Space Marines. By the way, I'm sure that the ogre army was invented precisely so that there would be armies with fewer models, but throughout history, the point limits have been ruthless.

However, and I think I've left this comment a few times before - is there any way in hell you can lower that initial beep/screech sound effect in your intro? I love that it's your calling card and I can immediately identify it, but the decibel level is so beyond anything else you have in your videos and it makes me, as a headphone wearer, wince, every single video, without fail. Lots of love bro, I will continue to support channel with likes and comments. Cheers.
