Update 8/28 - EP27 is go
Added 2018-08-28 18:41:28 +0000 UTCAY
These 10 days past more slowly than the last 10 did.
No clue why that is. Sorcery, surely.
EP27 Update
EP27 of TTS is now in two processes.
Process one is that we're currently pestering our voice-people for voice stuff. We've covered about 90% of Kitten's lines and perhaps 40% of Magnus' lines.
Magnus has more lines, incidentally.
Process two is editing. While I've compiled the scene, I've set up Zojam to start animating it, which he'll begin doing on Thursday.
The above image is from the first scene. You can take a jab at who's behind them.
Other News
Other news is that Upper Hive has been recorded. I'm currently waiting for some art to be finalized and some of the missing audiotracks from some of the players. After those things have been gathered, it'll just take a few days to finish up.
I've also started writing for EP28, because I had nothing better to do. I'm excited to get through it, but I feel like I need to read up on my Mechanicus lore a bit.
Lastly, after EP27 is done, I've highly considered getting back into the shorts game again. I feel like I'm missing out by not doing short-form content now and again.
I threw up a document for potential short videos in our project chat and, immediately, it was filled with suggestions.
After this, I came to up with an idea.
Since short-form content, under 3 minutes in length, opens up such a wide array of potential video ideas, I could perhaps take suggestions from YOUUU.
You provide ideas for the sort of 40k stuff you'd like to see covered in a short, and I pick ones I think could work for a script.
In addition, pressing 'Like' on eachother's comments to vote up ideas that you'd like to see made into reality would also be great fun.
Now, I'm not telling you to do that right now, 'cause this is still very much a WIP idea. But, I feel like its a solid idea, creates another incentive for you guys to stay around, and gives us even avenues to work with. Again, I miss doing short-form content. There's a certain levity to it, and its much easier for new viewers to get into a channel by watching short stuff to start off with.
That's all for today, though. But do tell me what you think of this idea.
Until next time!
Have a good one!!

What about how Guardsman die? Something like his fate? We could call it Fate of a Guardsman!

2018-11-02 05:10:06 +0000 UTCmaybe? maybe not? time will tell...or will it?
2018-09-12 18:06:46 +0000 UTCSomething on Fulgrim would be fun.

2018-09-11 01:12:01 +0000 UTCHmm... Are those Blood Ravens behind Magnus?
2018-09-07 12:47:26 +0000 UTCThose podcasts are truly an integral part of TTS lore. You probably find it surreal that your 'brand' has it's own lore with so many people following it. Well done papa busman.
GUYFUN
2018-09-03 22:34:41 +0000 UTCThe next podcast will be out after EP27 is over and done! I just wanna see how fast I can get an entire episode finished without working on much else.

2018-09-01 10:31:53 +0000 UTCOne suggestion and a question: Suggestion is Bjorn being finally reunited with his primarch, how the two would interact, and how the other wolves may react on bjorna reaction in turn. Question is, what about the Emperors next podcast. You said in a youtube comment that it would come one day, and be about a really old 40k book which may Contain the canon form of the TTS idea, in a way....any idea on when to do that? Back then it did sound like you were already on it, which made me curious ^^
2018-08-31 21:58:59 +0000 UTCI definitely feel a few shorts are due, dude!

2018-08-30 19:36:00 +0000 UTCFor inspiration for shorts try The Regimental Standard (Required weekly reading for the modern Guardsmen) <a href="https://regimental-standard.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://regimental-standard.com/</a> Featuring article such as "Highway to the Safety Zone" (dealing with the safe distance needed when fighting alongside a Titan), "Seal Your Purity" (includes your very own cut-out-and-keep Purity Seal!) and "Adeptus Mechanicus Announce Exciting Geological Discovery!" (dealing with Blackstone and 'activated' deposits).

2018-08-30 09:17:04 +0000 UTCIt depends! If I get a hold of all the neccesary audio stuff, I can put together the audio in a day, start working on the visuals, and depending on how intense the visuals are, it'll take all from 1 to 4 days, probably. If it's a regular throne-room scene, its usually just 1 or 2 days since those scenes are so simplistic!

2018-08-30 05:12:37 +0000 UTCI like the idea, what do you reckon how much time would a 3-5 minute video take you?

2018-08-29 14:47:13 +0000 UTCI approve of this idea, need more Vulkan!
2018-08-29 12:15:57 +0000 UTCMOAR SLY MARBO!

2018-08-29 04:34:39 +0000 UTCBefore actually finishing reading what you posted I already spent 10 minutes brainstorming shorts.,.. I can wait.
GUYFUN
2018-08-29 01:12:00 +0000 UTCFUCK YEAH MECHANICUS! PRAISE THE OMNISSIAH! ...also, i'd like to see more stuff about the Mechanicus and Knights in general. Some STC hunting shenanigans sound in order, sir...
2018-08-29 00:14:09 +0000 UTCShort idea: Magnus visits r/Grimdank, and gets swarmed with magnus did nothing wrong memers. He barely escapes, an in the process realizes the true meaning of Christmas!

2018-08-28 23:23:20 +0000 UTCI'd love to have some small 2 or 3 minutes shorts my dude, hope you do them
2018-08-28 20:57:59 +0000 UTCAs for 3 minute (or less?) shorts - a mission of Adeptus Sororitas on a random Crusade receive their Emperor pin-ups; a company of Kriegers get the update on the Emperor's forgiveness; a Choas dreadnought gets bored steamrolling Loyalist guardsmen and decides to joust every bit of artillery and Titan he can find. A Brotrip short would also not be awry, although I think you said you wouldn't be able to get to anything in that spin-off until episode 27. :D

2018-08-28 20:45:29 +0000 UTCCan't wait for the Upper Hive videos - the episodes with the genestealers as civilians still makes me laugh inappropriately loudly.

2018-08-28 20:36:48 +0000 UTCI can picture Alfa’s character sitting at Duncan’s paint table talking to the camera while “trying” to paint. Camera cuts to dropping wet and sloppy painted miniature the camera does the transition to the final product. But it’s an entirely different model with a tag saying Commissioned model with Alfa bragging about his skillz.
Kamen Astartes
2018-08-28 20:26:07 +0000 UTCIf I can make a suggestion.....3min book shorts. Similar to TFS’ Dragonball Z Kai where they summarize that entire season in 2 mins. For example Helsreach, Grimaldus crying in a corner saying “I want to go hoooome” while everyone else is fighting thinking there tears of joy. Or him cursing each time something worse comes.
Kamen Astartes
2018-08-28 20:20:15 +0000 UTCYou should do something to tie in the Model Painting crowd. I've recently discovered how obsessed those fans can be. That'd be good fodder for a short video.
2018-08-28 19:47:30 +0000 UTCWhoops, reading comprehension. Better post than previous wall-of-text: I love the idea of more shorts, especially ones that give Emps more opportunities to lament the (relatively) small stupidities of the Current Imperium, like the Imperial Law one.
2018-08-28 19:20:35 +0000 UTCThe next episode will definitely be shorter, but also denser. Covering a lot of lore on Ophelia VII.

2018-08-28 19:14:09 +0000 UTCPhew. I miss Vulkan and Corax. It’s been far too long.

2018-08-28 19:08:07 +0000 UTCNot taking suggestions just yet, dude!

2018-08-28 19:08:07 +0000 UTCDon’t tease me like this. Well, you have these to mull about for a bit if you’d like.

2018-08-28 19:07:37 +0000 UTCPodcast and BROTRIP will return after EP27, totally.

2018-08-28 19:07:05 +0000 UTCI also loved the podcasts because they were that source of shooting he breeze about the lore that I love. I love all the new plotting and stuff but I still miss that aspect.
RocknRolla
2018-08-28 19:06:44 +0000 UTCWoha, easy friendo, I'm not taking suggestions yet! Hold onto those 'til closer to the end of EP27.

2018-08-28 18:58:46 +0000 UTCAn idea for a short: How the Blood Ravens aquired Custodes equipment. In Dawn of War II the Blood Ravens have access to, among many other questionably aquired things, Custodes armour and a boltgun.
2018-08-28 18:56:15 +0000 UTCOh, that would be Eliphus video. I have no clue how I'd handle that without pissing off everyone ever.
