Pidpad Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 This bit of editorial independence could scupper future opportunities to editorial independence though. As usual, pros and cons. Does the need for information now outweigh future need for information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2
xanderv Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Yeah the plan is to not piss GW off. A cease and desist can be really easy for them to send... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallows Bait Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 We've had Blood Bowl podcasts for years and none of them has been given a C&D. I don't think any of the other podcasts have existed in an era when it was possible to get future developments out from the horse's mouth, as it were. This is GW licensing we're talking about, they play for keeps, always, I don't think it's wise to burn bridges with a company that just might be coming around looking for Beta testers in a few month time.

Hobnail Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 When did they last pay much attention to their beta testers? lol However, you are of course right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 5

Well this is true, I keep hoping that the blood, sweat and tears that the server migration cost me might be remembered by the powers that be at Cyanide, but no such luck as yet. It's probably a naive hope to think I could make much difference in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xanderv Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 I think the episode modification is much more about respecting Dode than GW. If anything under NDA had been broken, it could have burned the bridge between Dode and GW since he was the one with the NDA. I think we did it for him and not because we were 'scared' of whatever GW would have done. The modified episode has less 'oomph' than the original (which was definitely one of my favourites), but I like to think that it's a fair episode on its own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallows Bait Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Calm yourself by starting to paint again! I have been pondering that, yet my recent job change has left me with less time to even procrastinate with. Wondering what it might cost me to get someone else to do it though.

Verbal_HM Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I paid £130 for my last team, from nothing to a expertly painted team in a nice carry case. He did ask for only 100 but he does such a good job he deserved a bonus... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Real_Chris Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Correct. Freki originally made the pitch to Games Workshop. They vetoed two things : Star players and races. Don't worry, that would have been the very first question I would have asked. So hang on, bit behind things - they veto'd having all the star players? Or some star players picked randomly from a hat, or ones they think they don't have models for (technically all I guess) or what? (And I guess veto'd random teams, just Slann or other ones?)

dode Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 They vetoed talking about those subjects, if I understand correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
xanderv Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 Yeah, they vetoed discussing about them on the cast ; we have no idea of the race and star player status for BB2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Real_Chris Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Well since my purchase hinges on more stars and at least the same availability of teams, good luck to them. Fed up of not being able to use Skaven and the like, the like being teams I can only cope with when I have the full range of stars to play with (oh and the option not to have to take journeymen). High machine specs are working against them purchase wise as I have to run with everything minimised currently... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
