Lol is it weird that I play dawn of war while listen to this?
-
at 15:40 when you mention about the framerate... it's propably from the first person view upper right corner (shadows-lights)... if you close it (by clicking the X above ) ... you should be fine...

I've been binge watching this series while painting a unit of 40k Bloodletters.
-
Any idea why the player didn't just bunker all his forces up in the main room?
-
Feels like this game is half done and full of problems. The original space hulk game, with all its problems, seemed like more well developed, with greater detail, and less bugs
-
this really need some good ambient music in my opinion.
Listening to some CnC: TS music helps the tediousness a lot :p -
they are not called Devastators. that's only normal Space marines. and with space wolves they are called Long Fangs specifically.
for Terminator Marines they are just called Terminator with Heavy Flamer. or for lawls: A Flaminator. -
There's a thread on steam about how counter-intuitive it is that better melee equipment is unlocked at higher levels. Since melee is so high risk-low reward, there's no way anyone would want to make their high lvl characters completely melee focused. They're looking at ways to make melee more relevant... but without completely screwing the balance of the game.

20:38 The Space Wolves heavy weapons guys used to be called Long Fangs. I don't know if they've renamed them in recent years. They were considered to be the veteran squads. I seem to remember the Long Fangs being in terminator armour. Otherwise a terminator witha heavy weapon would just be called a terminator as far as I'm aware - the armour (and the prestige associated with it) being more important than the function of the weapon that he carries.
With the marines who all wear the same armour it's worth mentioning their roles or functions. With terminators they're all just terminators. Or brother Gorril :). -
Great episode thanks Splatter !
-
the lack of wolf jokes in this episode wolf displeases my wolf humor.
-
You can just throw the dead space marines gene seed into another person later, it isn't a big deal losing one.
-
In answer to your question about what a terminator is called if they bring a heavy weapon; In a terminator squad, one terminator is allowed to bring a cool toy with him. He doesn't really get a special title, he just becomes "Flamer guy" or "Assault Cannon dude".

Hey SplatterCat, I've just found your channel and I think your content is really good. I'm just wondering why you don't have more subscribers than you do now! Your interesting to listen to and you cover games that not many others do, so for those reasons you just gained another subscriber.
-
Maybe you should have one melee specialist in every group and give him the flamethrower because he won't be using bolters? So when he runs out of righteous napalm he can at least break some xenos sculls. Just a thought...
-
Loved that Firefly reference you threw in there. May all your enemies efforts be "not so solid" in the future.
-
You can turn on some kind of skill-view for the terminators while in the field somehow, could be cool to use that
-
Bringing the flamer is like a death-kiss, you know you'll die xD
-
It's funny that genestealers models only appear when they won't die from the overwatch
