@paulwalker5221 Yes, Warmaster still seems to have a solid fanbase which is great to see. And yes, those hills are amazing. I would love to get more of them.

@joken-actual Wow, that's great that you have all of the metal units. I would love to get a genuine Smaug and the dwarf archers, of course. Thanks for the great tips on alternative miniatures. I'll have to check out that chess set!

@anthonyruizy6533 I'm not upset, it's just a bit of self-deprecating humour, not meant to be taken seriously. I'm not sure I'd ever have enough income to justify spending £400+ on a hobby indulgence though, at least not in one go. Life is expensive in the UK and wages are much lower than the US.

@@TimelessTabletopGaming you ever spend money on video games?

@@nagashthegod I haven't got any to check how well they would scale, but Copplestone's Horse Tribe Infantry looks like it would sit alongside the Men of Dale well.

@colinspeirs That giant fact did amuse me! It's funny how small, giant monsters were back then. It's the same with Dragons I think.

@@TimelessTabletopGaming I have giants from the 80s, some from the 70s are smaller. I reused some of my 1970s figures as Dwarves in the 2000s I got Smaug last year cheap from a friend of a friend in Canada As to the bats. I think you are right, they are leaping up in flight, but they fight on the long base

@@TimelessTabletopGaming I checked my drawer of 10mm. Apparently in the past I bought Pendraken dwarves and elves Some nice figs, but all too huge Wondering if I can repurpose the dwarves as Beornings?

@@colinspeirs Haha, that's a nice idea.

@@colinspeirs Oh, so you think the official bats are actually supposed to face the long edge? That would make more sense, but it would look kind of odd.

@TheWizardsBrush Thanks buddy!

@robbyv101 Thanks! Sadly, not for sale, sorry. Games Workshop are selling the old plastic hills on their website again, though. They're very similar but not modular like these ones.

@@TimelessTabletopGaming No problem. Unfortunately, I was tricked into buying those hills when they were rereleased, thinking they were the modular ones! (they are still pretty nice though)

@robbyv101 I plan on picking some up myself. They do look quite similar.

@@billybrooks1365 Thanks!

@davidwasilewski Yeah, they look great but I prefer the proportions of the GW ones. The 3D printed ones are very stylised.

@@ianpatterson123 Keep an eye on Wargames Atlantic's new 10mm fantasy range that they've been teasing. It looks like it might be a spiritual successor of sorts. In any case, I'm glad you're enjoying it vicariously through these videos!

@nagashthegod Wow, six sets! That's incredible. That's interesting that you say the lists are balanced with other Warmaster game. I was thinking of creating separate, expanded lists for Elves, Dwarves and Men and I was wondering if I could use some Warmaster ancients lists as a basis but wasn't sure how balanced they would be against the evil list.

@1rnw792 I've seen the Orcs and they look superb and seem a perfect for fit BoFA or Middle-Earth in general. I didn't know they were doing Dwarves as well - that's very exciting!

@Kymfre01 They all come with 20x40mm bases which is the only base size for Warmaster system games. Characters are on little round bases - probably 20mm.

@@TimelessTabletopGaming thank you for r the reply, i had forgotten that there were bases in the box doh

@Kymfre01 Really appreciate the kind words and I'm glad you're enjoying the project!

@Kymfre01 Thanks a lot!

@shawnzeppo4361 Haha, I'm glad someone spotted that in that pic. The rules are written in a very cluttered way and then examples like that just don't help. I've watched a set of videos on the Warmaster Revolution rules. The differences seem quite subtle but I need to look into it more. Capping orders to 3 per unit makes sense though I imagine getting off more than that becomes pretty unlikely anyway. Good luck with your own project, that sounds exciting!

@eikmaster8947 Excellent! If you're in the UK, there's a couple of loose rulebooks on eBay at the moment for £40-50. Not cheap I know...

@@TimelessTabletopGaming saw them too but unfortunately I am not (Germany). But I will look out on from time to time.

@@eikmaster8947 Schade. Viel Glück!

@@TimelessTabletopGaming Danke!

I regret getting rid of it about a decade ago. I mean, chances are it would still just be sitting on a shelf or unloved in the attic but...still.

I stared at that box at my LGS for literally years and never bought it :(

@colinspeirs Ah, I'm very jealous of the Smaug. It's the one thing I'm finding it hard to find a good alternative to. Elven Cavalry was tricky too but I think I found some which fit well.

@colinspeirs The hills are excellent aren't they? I need to pick up a second set at some point for that reason.

​@@TimelessTabletopGaming​@TimelessTabletopGaming my impetus was a photo shoot for a modelling channel. I painted two hill halves as dark, vertical cliff faces as part of a Morgoth Vs Fingolfin duel After that, I thought "might as well do them properly"

@@colinspeirs Oh wow, I'd love to see that photo.

@@TimelessTabletopGaming emailed to the email you specify for the channel

@colinspeirs I've just taken a look. Excellent work! I love that you put in the craters made by Grond. You really nailed the scene. Thanks for sending it over!

@thomas_time7798 Glad to have brought it to your attention!

@ja37d-34 There were supposed to be more scenarios released on the website but I can't find any evidence of it ever having happened. It's a shame, but on the other hand, I quite like that it encourages you to do it yourself.

@@TimelessTabletopGaming Yeah true! Also love that kind of store you can make such finds..

@jackcade6344 Ah, cool! The shop is Lost Ark Games which at the time was in Buntingford. It moved soon after to Stevenage, but sadly recently downsized to a smaller shop (still in Stevenage) that focuses on space for gaming tables rather than stock. It's a shame because it used to have a really eclectic mix of stuff. Are there many good hobby shops in Beds? I visited the Bedford Tabletop Expo earlier in the year which was small but showed some promise.

@@TimelessTabletopGaming ahh, yes I know Lost Ark Games in Stevenage (I work in Stevenage) 😀 Keep up the great content, always happy to see more middle earth stuff as I mainly just play MESBG 👍🏻 (and board games)

@jackcade6344 Ah excellent! I'm hoping to do l some SBG stuff on here again soon. I've been playing through the Escape from Goblin Town scenarios with my daughter. If you fancy a casual game sometime let me know!

@@TimelessTabletopGaming sounds good! I’ve just got the new Rise of Angmar book and we’re going to play through some of the narrative scenarios (once the relevant models have been bought, built and painted…. Which might take some time!) 😂 as my fiancée and I only play VERY casually! We were working our way through most of the Quest of the Ringbearer scenarios… but they we had a baby (who’s now 14months old) and so that fell away 😂 Thanks for the offer of a game, hopefully we can get that sorted sometime 👍🏻

@grahamlloyd7157 Glad you enjoyed it! Hopefully you'll be inspired to dig them out and paint up the rest! I definitely plan on buying some of those Copplestone Castings miniatures - lovely sculpts.

@@davidwasilewski Glad to hear it, thanks!

@jmaccsarmiesofArda I also found and bought a sealed copy of 3rd (or 4th?) Edition Blood Bowl at the same time which had also long been OOP. It was a good day! And no worries, that scene of you rooting through your bin looking for nuln oil had me proper laughing.

@@TimelessTabletopGaming Jessus thats a blast from the past. Scary thinking thats 2 years ago xD

Apparently, i was already subscribed....great video still though! 😊

@danharris8805 I changed the channel name which might explain that. But glad you enjoyed it and thanks for being subbed!

@farpointgamingdirect Oh wow! I'd love to pick up the metal models but I'm not willing to pay the current rate. I did pick up one thing at a decent price but other than that I've been buying third-party alternatives.

@@bigbattleslittleworlds Thanks a lot! I painted the back drop. I watched a few tutorials on beginner landscape acrylic art and practiced on a few small canvasses. When I was happy(ish) with one I just recreated it on a large canvas. Look up 'Eavy Lead Scenic Backdrop on TH-cam for a good starting point if you fancy making one yourself!

@@TimelessTabletopGaming Thanks for the tip, I definitely will look into it for my battle reports. Thanks again and keep up the great content, im looking forward to seeing more.

@reluctantheist5224 I've since realised that it was probably supposed to be a raven. I'd forgotten the bit where the Dwarves talk to a raven called Roäc, and it's the ravens that send for Dain. I don't think they ever interact with Gandalf and Bilbo though and Tolkien does describe the Thrush at the door of Erebor as 'enormous' so who knows?

@@TimelessTabletopGaming He does? I didn't know that about the thrush! Thanks.

@@TimelessTabletopGaming Yup, it is a Raven. The Ravens were the messengers, the thrush was just a prophecy fulfiller, though the Thrush DID summon one of the Ravens to get them in touch with each other

@shawnzeppo4361 You're on to something, like Diet Coke and Coke Zero! Who thought Vomit Brown was acceptable though...

@@TimelessTabletopGaming Just for the record, Coke Zero tastes much better, but I'd rather go for a pint.
