Jay having a body pillow doesn't surprise me what was on the pillow though that did in fact surprise me

Jay in Bed wasn’t on my Bingo card for 2025

00:15 Calling an individual film as a "star war" and not just "my favorite Star wars movie" is diabolical.

Jay cuddling a Kaeya body pillow in bed was not on my 2025 bingo, but here we are!

I'm super supprised we havent seen trench crusade from Jay.

Mantic have made a gem with this game.

With the PVC, which you clearly don’t like, it’s worth knowing that Mantic wanted people to be playing the game within 10-15mins of opening the box. It works.

Very excited for the future if this game and I believe there’s hard plastic down the line

Halo Flashpoint is a very good skirmish wargame. This week-end, i ran 175 demos in 2 days in Geek Life Festival. Community was here ! 😊 And i love too this Elite !

Can definitely confirm that a PVA "foundation" makes crackle paints crack much larger. Supposedly the same also happens with gloss varnish. I think it's not just about the moisture, since it also works that way on plain plastic bases. It seems more like the smoothness of the surface makes it easier for the crackle paint to slide and move around as it contracts, leading to larger cracks.

In fact if you're using a fairly thick layer of glue/varnish, the cracks will be wide enough to let the surface underneath shine through. Very useful if you want to have e.g. lava flow peek through the cracks.

Mantic will have my money if they do some ODST's minis, MANTIC GIVE ME THAT AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!

Fun fact this is like the third time Halo has tried to get into tabletop.

The first was a small tabletop game from the early 2000s

Then there was fleet battles and ground command

Now theres this which is pretty cool.

The fleet battles and ground command community has made a ton of cool Banished, Flood and iirc theres someone currently working on some prometheans

An ironic husbando anime body pillow is still a husbando anime body pillow.

Hands down, most accessible and best minis channel. Always so hyped in your videos, love to see it

[Dankergold]

12:30 they already announced most of that stuff a while ago (the elites are banished elites, not covenant)

[mordecaitoth]

Halo Flashpoint is a fantastic game and I also bought the Spartan Edition just for the Elites haha We've been playing it so much the extra Spartans are appreciated too. Thanks for sharing!

[lordbiscuitthetossable]

I agree with Jay here; Phantom Menace is a movie that is fun to just digest. Luca's had a interesting idea of basically making the culture of that setting Renaince Europe, which is kind of themed in the senate and just how people behave in that setting, at least in the upper crusts of society. Luca's did have a interesting world that was colourful and vibrant.

Edit: I love the video though! Made me feel nostalgic to my teenage years. Halo was my jam.

I dont know what confuses me more: That Jay has a bodypillow or that i didnt expect him to have one. „It all makes sense now.“

[sullivanquinn]

I've been playing Flash Point now for several months (since release) and it is the most fun I've had with a skirmish game in a long time. Mantic have huge plans for it and I've seen it really take off in popularity.

[Ironfrenzy]

I've enjoyed every game I've played of Halo Flashpoint.

[ohthatswhygo]

Halo Flashpoint is a great game, I've been playing it since launch and it is so fun. I only have the Recon edition but I can't wait for the Banished to get more fireteams released later this year!

Jay lives a life most of us miniature wargamers wish we had lol, comfy bed, body pillow, a large area to work, and no collection is complete without a pile of shame, perfection
