Anything But A One!

Chaos Renegades I mean Pact. Literally perfect. The best of the best. Elves, Goblins, Skaven, Ogres, Minotaurs, all in one team. Clawpomb. Mutations. Wait, they’re bottom tier two? Why? Listen to find out! We’re also talking SAWBBowl II, then we’re getting all down and dirty with the rulebook. Rules Lawyers, unite! Oh, and a BloodBlusters quiz … Continue reading Episode For...

Hi all, I’ve got a few things I want to say quickly. As many of you are probably aware, our last episode was a bit crap. I’m sorry about that. We were plagued with an array of technical issues. We had login issues, microphone issues, laptop issues… I took a calculated risk before recording (think … Continue reading An announcement →

Okay, I’ll level with you. Sometimes. SOMETIMES We get things wrong. Twelfman spends about 7 minutes putting the world to rights. Like a nerd. Listen here!

The host is dead! Long live the host! Twelfman is absent today, because of a collection of frankly embarrassing technical cock-ups. That means this is purely an episode of Nazgob, Merrick and Nightwing. I didn’t even edit this one! Hold on to your pants listeners, it’s a new world out there! They’re talking the Welsh … Continue reading Episode Forty-Six: Welsh Women &#...

There once was a hiatus… Then it was over. We’re back, baby! We’re talking about the 7s tournament that Nightwing went to, then we’re delving into the Welsh Open, a wicked tournament that’s running this weekend.

  The second Elflympics has been and gone, and we spend a decent amount of time nattering on about it this week. We also set ourselves some Blood Bowl resolutions to try and be better players Merrick’s hosting Bloodblusters too. Oh dear.

Orcs! They’re big, they’re green, they’re here to get in the way. Nothing says green eggs and beef like orcs. Why have pathetic, piddly, barely-even-there armour when you can slap AV9 on almost every piece and laugh as your opponent fails to break it even once in an entire game? Why not play a team … Continue reading Episode Forty-Three: Orcs – On Cloud AV9 &#859...

Slight deviation from the natural order this episode. Instead of covering ‘tactics’ and rumours etc, we have instead decided to dedicate an episode to a discussion of the NAF, what it does, and what it doesn’t do. The reason for this is there have been some heated discussions online of late, and we thought bringing … Continue reading Episode Forty-Two: The NAF, The Universe...

We’re two years old! We look back on years and years any, uh, well that’s it, of content. We’re also talking about the Chimera Cup! Ah! And we have shiny new excellent microphones! Listen to our sexy voices in glorious definition! And then Bloodblusters… Run by Nightwing. History books out, chaps. Patreon Link: https://www.patreon.com/ABAOpodcast Shirts and … Continue...

  Twelfman can finally, finally go off the rails on a bit of Elven Union Pro Elf action. And not only that, but he and Nightwing get to be all mushy over Eldril Sidewinder. Swoon. Oh, also Dolfar Longstride and the skills Nerves of Steel, Kick, and Pass Block. We’re also proud to announce we’ve … Continue reading Episode Forty: Professional Trade Union →

Gert happened, and that was it. Oh yeah, Twelfman was running it. And everyone else went, so we should probably talk about it. What was that? Janky, broken bears? You must be mistaken. We’re also talking various other tournaments in the South West. And Nazgob hosts Bloodblusters this time! sigh What could go wrong? Episode … Continue reading Episode Thirty-Nine: Great Gert, Gurt Gert,...

Trumpets blare and choirs of angels sing! We’ve returned after our unplanned summer holiday to slap some moist wet podcast right in your pie hole. Last week most of us went to the ever fantastic Thrudball, and this episode focusses mainly on that, and our subsequent stunty adventures. Of course, there’re some other tangential discussions, … Continue reading Episode Thirty-Eight:...

  Deathzone: Season Two. More stuff to love, more stuff to hate, more stuff to ‘meh’. In this episode we deal specifically with the non-optional rules, so Star Players and new inducements. Keep an ear out for future episodes where we talk about other bits and bobs. We also talk about Foul Bowl wot just … Continue reading Episode Thirty-Seven: More Entirely Rational Discussio...

Vampires! As strong as a Black Orc, as nimble as a Gutter Runner, as robust as a zombie, with the skill access of the Holy Slann Blitzer. What downside could be so enormous that they’re considered tier three at best? Also, half of us went to Auld World Masters, and a different half of us … Continue reading Episode Thirty-Six: That Sucks Thralls →

  We’re joined by two super duper special guests today: Orca Cola’s RK, and the NAF’s Hawca. We talk Orca Cola and NAFC with these lovely chappies. Then it’s the Skaven roster discussion time, where we examine the strengths and weaknesses (not that there are many) of the Skaven team. Lastly, it’s Bloodblusters! What could … Continue reading Episode Thirty-F...

  SAWBBL happened last week, and a bunch of us were there. We talk Goblins, Norse, and general insanity. You know us by now. We also talk about the Bright Crusaders models and the Made To Order BB stuff. Then it’s BloodBlusters, hosted by Merrick. Wahoo! What could go wrong? ABAO Episode Thirty-Four: SAWBBL-de-hoy Find … Continue reading Episode Thirty-Four: SAWBBL-de-hoy →

BB2016 – Love it or hate it, it’s here to stay. We start today’s episode with our take on it as a whole, what we like, what we don’t like, that sort of thing. We’ll then move onto Bubba Bowl III, Bristol’s Premier One Day Tourney that most of us went to. Then it’s Gert … Continue reading Episode Thirty-Three: BB2016s and Bubbas and Bears, oh my!...

Season Two: Game Two – Forest Side Warrior Princesses Bumford is feeling good. Brand new team (even if they are weird frog people), first victory under their belt. He bursts into the changing room of Yaverslann’d, an overflowing barrel of finest dwarven BlitzBooze clamped between his arms. “Mornin’, wusses!” He roars. The frogs flinch from … Continue reading Bumford’s Adventures...

Oh Slann, you underrated team of freaks, you. Who cares for tiers or optimisation when you can simply bounce around, having fun? Who needs Blitzers with Block or Catchers with Catch? Or, well, any of the staple skills required to make a team competitive? Not Slann! We’ll also take a look at Scrumpy Scramble this … Continue reading Episode Thirty-One: Slanntastic Mr Krox →

  Literally nothing contentious happened in the last few weeks. No new models were released, no new unbalanced star players were announced, nothing whatsoever even remotely controversial even crossed the minds of anyone. Well, maybe not. This week we’re talking about the new star players Grak and Crumbleberry, the new models revealed at Warhammer World, … Continue reading Episode...
