I'd be surprised if Tom and Ben weren't at *least* in the top-5 for Yogs stream teams, honestly. It's hard to beat out the classic Lewis & Simon... but that band mostly broke up outside of reunion tours and moved on to solo projects. Duncan''s almost always been more of a talkshow host then an ensemble member (and he's great!) but... Really, the competition the lads'd have don't have quite the *prestige.* Maybe Sips (a one-man sitcom) or Hat Films? Then again I'm a biased little VODgobbo, what the heck do I know besides vapid praise and pearls.
Well to be fair for Simon, he has mental issues to recover from. Naturally to make him work into any schedule with anyone is going to stress him out, even Tom doesn't do much videos with Simon now. Best to let him do things at his own pacing. Meanwhile, thanks to Jamesworkshop, it has improved Tom & Ben's mental fortitude to overcome any challenges.
@@johntan4997 Didn't mean to really disparage anyone, honestly. Though it's also worth pointing out Simon does a lot of stuff solo, or semi-regularly with Geestar, so he's not *idle.* Just mostly pulled back a bit, and honestly he deserves it. The only point being made is that there's room in the top 3 for Tom and Ben for sure. They're consistent enough, put in the work, are entertaining, and are barely any more cursed then the competition. Totally top 3 material, for sure!
@@happyhatebot Nah, it's not a disparage. Sometimes bad things just happen to good people and they can't do as well as they wanted to. Having said that, you are correct about being consistence, be it an entertaining stream, exercise or sleep cycle. Cheers.
I think I have an explanation for the historical variance in human height shown at 1:00:30. Back when we were nomadic hunter-gatherers we of course weren't as numerous, but our diets consisted of anything we could find and meat wasn't considered a luxury that was kept away from the plebeians, resulting in more balanced nutrition. The transition to a more sedentary lifestyle eventually shifted us heavily into agriculture, social hierarchy became more important, which came with an emphasis on land ownership. The low points in the graph probably correlate to periods with substantial serfdom/slavery and income inequality where the poor masses were only allotted grain products and vegetables. Related fun fact, there was a period in our history where there were hunter-gatherer cities, one of which reached a population of 10,000 or so.
Just as future reference for the Judges, Judge of Diplomacy: Present unique crew members like Tuco or soup boy and you get a bonus for the next run (you can also present the dead orchid children) Judge of Technology: Present a max upgraded system and receive a bonus based on the system for the next run Judge of Warfare: Present a unique weapon, like the clone launcher or an obelisk weapon for associated bonuses next run (You have to visit each of the Judges at least once before they will actually Judge you)
My dad and I once did a night time game, where we used redlights only. We also once did a dawn mission with a spotlight a bit away level with the edge of the board so it had long shadows. Probably neither are good for a video, but both could be fun to try.
On the prehistoric human heights, there's reason to believe modern heights are being fueled by better diets than in the past. The interesting tid-bit about that is, the transition from hunter-gatherer's to early agriculture wasn't an immediate improvement in that regard. Sure, agriculture meant you had a more steady supply of food of some kind, didn't need to be nomadic following your prey herds or looking for new sources of food, but that doesn't mean you were getting all the nutrition you needed. It was a step in the right direction in some regard, but not in others. This is probably the case being made in the Wikipedia entry, since it has "Human height worldwide sharply declined with the advent of the Neolithic revolution, likely due to significantly less protein consumption by agriculturalists as compared with hunter-gatherers" around the graph.
For the night raid lighting thing. Possibly try shining the light through translucent black or midnight blue plastic & cut small holes in it for spotlights? Only other thing i can think of is have light bounced off sheets instead of direct sources. Or just have the room dark with the table lit by a spotlight to create the idea instead of directly applying the idea to the minis, create more of a macro effect to give the same vibes
Fairly certain I still have that free White Dwarf necron somewhere still in its blister pack, possibly at my parents' house. I should try and find it to paint it up!
Looks like Mobile Arms: Endless Destiny is purposely made to evoke 80s-early-90s mecha style without being any specific IP. But, the ones I watched were giant mechs & the game seems more "human+" scale.
Kickstarter roulette has died and it is sad to see. But still love all the other content. Also I have been playing this and have not been able to kill the boss once yet. Not sure how these guys have twice now.
Urban Card looks like another game I played as a kid… cards leveled up and the such and had the same aesthetic. Now it’s going to bug me what game it was.
The Sisters of Battle makes me curios as why you haven't brought them up more for Lorehammer or Yourhammer. Literally one of the only things I know about their lore is their origins and it is dumb as hell. You would think in a grim dark gothic themed empire of the future, zealous battle nuns would not need much explanation. You know they are just the Imperium's version of silent sisters or shield maidens the classic trope both from fantasy and even sort of real life where there are all women warriors for religious/cultural reasons. Nope! unless it is no longer canon, their origin is because the Imperial Church got too big and corrupted (political/corporate not chaos) and abused its military might so it got decreed they couldn't have military besides guards directly under them, but the actual decree says something like "no armed men", so the sisters being "women" and not "men" are just a loophole.
"If we have 2 hours of stream left I probably wouldn't do it" Proceeds to stream for another 2 hours.
I don't even go to Warhammer Community any more I just catch up on the vods
It's the best way of learning what's new in Warhammer last week.
This is the only Warhammer you need
Tem and Bon strike again. They achieved the take over of Tom and Ben, just as Tom and Ben wanted to take over the yogs
Man would love to see more Games night or even battle report from you guys, love the content boys!
FTL stream continues to be really entertaining, thanks for the great content.

Lewis and Lyds and Lyds and Tom are also winning combos, and I think you underestimate the power of Duncan and Osie. They're like long lost siblings.
The relaxing spa music is a great soundtrack to the Necrons V Templars Epic.

tom and ben are in MY yogscast top 3

a game of epic on games night would be very pog
Bens dark angel army looks so cool
For that Zoltan test, If I recall correctly you just have to wait when the fight starts.

I can proudly say that I've managed to usually be a sword guy or mage in skyrim. Never done a true stealth archer build yet
2:25:11 Morgan Freeman: _"But it turns out they did have two hours of stream left."_
Admit it, if you were kicking people, having ice skates just in case sounds pretty useful even when Mr Freeze isn't around.

Can’t wait for Tony and Tony’s run next week
I like how Tom clearly started with the A-Team theme, Ben misinterpreted it as Raiders March, and Tom just had to roll with it.
Looks like Mobile Arms: Endless Destiny is purposely made to evoke 80s-early-90s mecha style without being any specific IP.
But, the ones I watched were giant mechs & the game seems more "human+" scale.
Amazing FTL run guys
If you're here for FTL it starts at 1:20:40
I can't wait to see them 100% this game
Look forward to this stream every week
the duskbringer martyrs suffer no skill loss from cloning so theyre the perfect suicide bombs
Please play a game of Epic on games night.

once again, war crime simulator, wow its amazing
How could you lie to me like that, Title-maker? ;_;
sort of miss Warhammer. I understand though if after a few hundred Warhammer streams you wanted a break :)
Super into some Tom & Ben, not super into FTL, but I will endure, you never know when they might talk about silly stuff
Who the f is a COD board game for?
Just thought to tell you that a zoomer watches you. Hope you feel worse.
The grey for now sculpts (0200 hours) are so good! I love test of honour, their Japanese skirmish game
