Please?
Is there some kind of joint ownership option? If there is, I can make one and give thems permission to add videos and whutnot.sahasrahla wrote:you wanna make one?
I see whut your saying. Butif you were to type 'brikwars' in to the search on YouTube, you'll get videos from viccon and other places playing whut either is, or effectively is Brikwars. I was thinking the channel would have something like that. Wargammers use YouTube <a href='http://tinyurl.com/y42zurt'>alot</a> too, to show off their battles, and teach people to play. Once YouTube finally loads on my iPod, I can paste some links of videos for you and others to watch, I think seeing whut I'm saying instead if only saying it will help.someof the vids may be long, like an hour, so just skip around, or just watch bits and pieces.Texhnophille wrote:To what end though? I can only see it working if your content is something like that of StrikingScorpion82. The guy makes warhammer 40K content, with a shit ton of batreps, painting guides, tactica guides etc. And I don't think BW would really profit from anything like that. Purely because things like metagame and painting are irrelevant to BrikWars. The only thing such channel could profit from, is batreps. But then again, with that format, you won't get to see how minifigs actually shoot eachother, unlike photo-reports people do here. You could maybe upload a tutorial on how to play BrikWars, but that's about it.
Batreps and building guides (rather than painting guides) wouldn't be bad. To really sell it you'd have to develop some dedicated factions and storylines over time for viewers to get attached to, rather than trying to draw in a grognard crowd with the mechanics and metagame that don't matter enough to warrant the attention.Texhnophille wrote:a shit ton of batreps, painting guides, tactica guides etc. And I don't think BW would really profit from anything like that.
yus. I'd love to set this up, but does anyone know if their is a joint ownership option? ( not to be pushy, but I'd like to know this, as I've not had a chance to go on YouTube and look)sahasrahla wrote:yeah if we had magic soaps on youtube i bet people'd watch that

Assyrians are cool as a faction but don't have a lot happening from a story standpoint. It's hard to come up with compelling story hooks for them.Texhnophille wrote:Assyrian war adventures anyone?
