The audio episodes release a day or two earlier depending on the week, so that's where you saw the initial people come from. Also don't fret the mics too much, Eric's an obnoxious audiophile. I've heard worse. If you're looking for a cheap mic upgrade we swapped over to PodMics with a basic inline amp and 80 dollar audio input control knob thingy (I'm very good at audio) from amazon and the quality has been phenomenal. The whole setup was like 300 bucks a person and was amazingly easy to set up.

Want to shout out Oculus Imperia for his 'in kayfabe' lore videos. Its not exactly a small time channel, but he does fill a really cool lore niche that I haven't really seen replicated any better. He's a wonderful orator and has some excellent writing in his videos. Specifically want to shout out a few of his vids, "The Curious Conversation of Iskander Khayon", an audio drama where his character is speaking with a member of the Thousand Sons. For the Ork lovers, there's "Xenobiologis: The Waaagh Effect of the Orks" with a wonderful monologue by Nate Crowley as an in universe Ork.

Three I would like to add are the following: 1.) Winters SEO- he is a wargame guy with similar production levels to mini wargaming. He however always tries to infuse a level of narrative to his games. He also has some awesome narrative battle report campaigns in his memberships. Great voice to listen to and do some job ting to. 2.) Little Wars tv- old guys that do historical scenarios, from Vietnam to Punic wars. It is cool to see all of the different models and is inspiring me to write narrative scenarios. Their pyrrhic wars series is great and is a hearty recommend for something that needs a 40K conversion ASAP. Also helps I’m a huge history buff too, so very biased here but is great to see other wargame systems 3.) Rogue Hobbies- A former GW employee that started a KZread channel. She covers histories of miniature ranges or more obscure miniatures. Just a great way to learn about anything and everything wargaming/GW related. She also has a very infectious joy and enthusiasm in all of her videos

Oh I've got a few for others to check out. Hobby stuff: Eric's Hobby Workshop - very fun terrain and other scratch builds, currently building a to-scale imperator titan that is approx 7 ft tall. Doesn't upload _as_ frequently as I'd like, but I'm always excited to see what he's cooked up Pete the Wargamer - Fantastic kitbashing channel, explains what he's doing well enough that you can follow along and get something pretty good even if it isn't quite as good as his. Also includes difficulty ratings to some of his kitbashes which is super helpful Gameplay: OldenDemon - Mostly talks about 2nd edition, talking about old rules quirks and systems and sometimes discussing old battle reports that were published in White Dwarf at the time. Minisodes - Similarly talks about 2nd edition and other Warhammer stuff from the 90's in short battle reports, painting, and other stuff. Good if you wanna watch something about warhammer that is more around 15 minutes rather than 40. Miscellaneous stuff: E.M.M.P. and HERCORP music channel - Creates music based around Warhammer 40k, very cool if you want something thematic to play in the background while you and your friends play Warhammer or for some other Grimdark tabletop game that isn't just church music. KiriothTV - Discusses new Warhammer releases, very focused on the modelling aspect of the hobby, if you want to listen to someone admire or criticize the sculpts of the minis, he's your guy.

And for introductions in general, I've discovered a lot of vTubers either making 40k content, or watching other content and giving input as they learn. It's fun to learn alongside someone completely new. -40k Vtuber: Christian Von Carmian I discovered due to their Genestealer Cults series and goes in deep on mixing lore with gameplay.

A shame that Occulus Imperia wasn't mentioned, but I understand why you couldn't get absolutely everyone. Occulus Imperia is fantastic for immersive lore, as he makes every video from the perspective of a Ministorum member archiving significant events within 40k and 30k. Definitely check him out.

I'd add Miscast. For me, he is genuinely the Bob Ross of kitbashing, his energy is infectious. I had times where I set time aside for hobbying, but didn't really feel like it, watched one of his videos, and proceeded to work on my minis till 3 in the morning.

I'm surprised that almost nobody I talk to knows about 'Baldemort's Guide to Warhammer.' It's a lore channel where the lore is read more dramatically and after Bricky's intro lore videos it's my number one recommendation to new people who are interested in the lore since his videos are more just factions, characters and events, so there isn't nearly as mugh to sift through as Leutin

Baldermort is the pinacle of emotional lore and made me the fan I am today.

the mentioned "lore problem" is actually why I like Arbitor Ian specifically, rather than just reading wiki pages and spitballing fan theories he often takes time to discuss real-world context or discusses content from campaign books; i.e. the kind of stuff you don't get from black library, or wouldn't be worth listening to if you did.

If you're new to miniature painting I recommend zumikito miniatures. Short, concise and fun videos that explain important concepts in just the right amount of detail.

For the Age of Sigmar section, I'd like to shout out 2+Tough. There's not a ton of Age of Sigmar Lore Channels out there, but they do it the best, in my opinion. I'd say their biggest strength is in covering what a given faction is about, and they always ask the questio, "Why is this cool?" They then explain what they personally love about the lore topic they just covered. I do personally wish that they'd do some updates or remakes of their introductory videos since their content has improved massively since some of those videos were first created, but the work they do is still great if you ask me. And for the 40K fans, I'm a big fan of "Paul is Bad At Stuff". They're pretty new, but if you like shorter form, highly edited videos of thoughts about painting, gaming, and occasionally other topics. He does it incredibly well imo.

Shout out for channels you haven't mentioned that I watch. Painting. eBay Miniature Rescues. Squidmar. Veriety. Tabletop Time (their sister channels are good too but not 40k) Rogue Hobbies Battle Reports Liam Dempsey. Tabletop Titans. Lore Isyander & Koda.

Ebay miniatures rescue is a lot of fun, and his podcast with brent is fantastic.

Great list! Lots to subscribe to, but I'll add some more to the list! 1. Tabletop Titans - excellently produced battle reports as well as sit in discussion and painting videos. All great and very funny chemistry. 2. Craftworld Eldar - smaller channel focusing on Craftworld armies but does do general content. Has a great radio voice and just great to listen to.

The algorithm has blessed me with a few surprisingly small channels that I nevertheless really enjoy. 1. Rogue Hobbies - This one is probably a little better known. Louise Sugden, formerly of Warhammer+ "Masterclass" fame, has started her own channel, and while she does do some hobby stuff, a lot of it is really just exploring the weird side of retro-warhammer. Very fun, very much worth checking out. 2. Olden Demon - Dedicated to exploring the absolute weirdness of playing retro warhammer. His "Dawn Raid" video recapping an old White Dwarf battle report is very charming, and illustrates both some of the very weird rules of the game, and also some very different expectations of how the game should be played. Really cool, and very funny. 3. Miniscape - this is more or less one guy's hobby journal of collecting and painting retro warhammer minis, and explaining what it was like to collect them as a kid and, again, some of the weirdness of the game at that point. The videos are short, well-edited, and simultaneously charming and funny.

For the algorithm!

a couple more battle report channels: MiniWarGaming does Tabletop Tactics style battle reports for basically every "standard" scale non-skirmish game; 40k, Horus Heresy, AoS, and even occasionally Warhammer Fantasy. Winters SEO and SN Battle Reports are both channels I watch for their Horus Heresy battle repoets, though I believe both do also do 40k ones as well. Finally, for lore I'll reiterate Oculus Imperia from other comments, he does a very good job of being "in universe" for his videos, and the narration and content is good on top.

Extremely happy with the Loremaster of Sotek mention He was actually the dude who made fall down to road of Chaos with his Archaon video

One big lore guy I highly, HIGHLY recommend is Occulus Imperia. He essentially creates mini podcast/documentary episodes based on events that have happened in the 40k universe from the perspective of a historian. I would definitely recommend to Brad the Burning of Prospero series he did, its what got me into the channel. The Betrayal at Calth series thats currently ongoing is also really great.

You guys just made my day! Thank you ❤️ Really cool to hear an elevator pitch on my videos, as I myself struggle to define what they are or what I'm even doing with them half the time 😂 As for the glacial publishing cadence.. I'm experimenting with some ways to get the videos out faster but its proving a tough problem to solve. Hopefully I can post more regularly in 2024 🥲

Great video and I learned a lot. On the lore, you went wide by missing Oculus Imperia. Dude is a workhorse, and where other people say, "Here is a lesson about this part of the lore," he says, "Come, sir, and I will tell you a story." Just amazing work that has turned into a remarkable ongoing series. Highly recommended.

I really like Olden Demon. He's a smaller channel covering oldhammer, particularly 2nd edition and rogue trader. His videos are a mix of informative and deadpan comedy. He has a unique (at least in my experience) style where he shows an simple abstract representation of the situations and interactions that he is discussing that I find appealing. I highly encourage anyone who's interested in older editions of warhammer to check him out.

One Lore guru I'm surprised you missed is Baldermort. He has some of the best lore and storytelling I've heard of, and his voice is perfect.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Baldermort's Guide to Warhammer - very good lore stuff

I wanna recommend as a niche channel Jordan Sorcery. He's focused more the Old World of Warhammer Fantasy but more importantly the history of Games Workshop. Also: Oculus Imperialis for lore. His angle of doing it all in character just adds so much extra flavor.

For audiobook type videos I think Baldemort's Guide to Warhammer is the best, wonderful channel and the best narrator on youtube on my opinion

If you play Genestealers or Sisters I'd highly recommend "40k Vtuber: Christian Von Carmian". I've found no better source for gameplay and hobby tips for those factions.

He's filled that VTuber Warhammer niche I didn't know existed with a splendid voice and a very charismatic presence. He's guiding me in my path to meet the four armed emperor! Love the guy.

Trovarian he does GrimDark in a way this brighter on the table without losing the feel.

Guess I'll add a couple of recommendations here: •Olden Demon: Old Hammer with nostalgia dialed up to 11, but with enough humor to entertain those who didn't play back then. Covers rules, fan theories and classic White Dwarf battle reports using the graphics they used to use in the 90s, providing commentary/analysis. •Rogue Hobbies: A mixed bag of content types from a former GW employee/Warhammer+ presenter. Has in my opinion she has an incredibly unique style of painting. •Matt's Hobby Hour: Great painter and very chill presentation. I'm using his Kraken paint scheme on my Nids at the moment. •Zumikito Miniature: Painting, mostly focused on display pieces but he's able to give a great instructions on painting techniques in a relatively short video.

Paul is bad at stuff is a must watch channel. It’s small but goddamn the content is good

Mavericks Paint did some AMAZING painting and kit bashing of gore Space Marines. He uploaded a few videos. His work was some of the absolute best I've ever seen. He was well received and very quickly got over 100k subs. Aaaaand... he just disappeared. Hasn't posted anything in like 6 months. Very disappointing.

Previous comment got lost in the void, but putting "MS_Paints" and "Paul is bad at stuff" both out there as extremely high quality content creators in the space.

Gonna shoot my shot and call out one of my favorite creators Oculus Imperia. He’s very much on the opposite of most beginner lore channels where he does in character almost drama pieces recounting lore from the perspective of an in universe ministotum clerk but the man has the flare and voice for it, big recommend

My absolute go to game oriented/ battle report channel is mountain miniature gaming. They play 40K, HH, Sigmar, Fantasy, and will play old world and imperalis im sure. Editing is ok and passable but you can tell it’s just some guys going to the the LGS and playing some games and having a good time. I love them

Mediocre hobbies is my go to painting vids. He's so relaxed and purposely paints to a attainable tabletop standard that looks incredible

That's the guy Bricky said I need to watch who I still haven't watched yet... Fine I'll put him on when I get back from vacation.

I’m a big fan of Games Night. They do more than just warhammer its tabletop games in general as in they play game I guess it’s a battle report. They’re really well put together and edited really well. They put out videos once a month and they’re great fun to watch.

I started watching PancresNoWork like a month ago and I cant get enough, his comedy is right my alleyway. I think I watched most of his videos like 3 times already

Awesome picks and some to try for me, gonna shout outmy own unmentioneds: - PancreasNoWork (Very funny dry humour lore youtuber who doesn't get lost in the weeds and covers a broad set of topics, including Halo lore too!) - Rogue Hobbies (Delightful painting/colour scheme lore gremlin who used to work at GW similar to Duncan and Peachy. She has infectious enthusiasm.) - Warrior Tier (His long form lore videos narrated in character as Trazyn are some of the most incredible high production value vids I've ever seen) - Zorpazorp (I sometimes find him a bit too 'youtubery' loud ham/clickbaity, but his AMAZING terrain builds are undeniably stunning and well worth looking into) - Juan Hidalgo (If you want a golden demon quality painter, but who is more accessible than most, check him out. His videos taught me to use contrast, he avoids airbrushing entirely, explains things very very well, and he replies to every. Single. Comment. So if you aren't sure, ask, even on years old videos he WILL reply very quickly. Fantastic bloke. - Pete the Wargamer (Sooooo good kitbashes)

Eons is probably my favorite channel. He is a good mix of casual perspective and quality. I think he is a genuine hobbyist who just documents his life. Really refreshing.

Shout out to the Kieran Show - it’s criminal they are not bigger. Also personally recommend Kirioth and Lizard of Doom. Plus Zorpazorp for the best terrain vids on KZread

I thought I saw his table in the background but I was mistaken, eyeah hes a pretty big one. Say Hi Paul is also great

Brad branzenly assuming at 52:55 that they have no Chemistry teachers watching them, we even have to go over that bloody model again in universtity to see if it even makes sense to teach.

Have to shout out the laying down the lore podcast. Very very funny feels a lot like poorhammer but just lore. Seriously very very funny and easy to listen to. Laying down the lore 40K

Minisodes and miniscape are great for old warhammer painting.

Couple of other channels worth checking out rogue hobbies, Liam dempsey, olden demon, baldemort. All great viewing

Battle camper is a fantastically underrated channel. He mostly does MESBG content, but if you want to watch a guy paint minis with his dog up a mountain or in a castle, this is the guy for you. I also find his content sort of calming and like spending time with a friend rather than painting tutorial or tournament report. Highly recommended 👌

If you like inside-baseball surrounding the hobby side and specifically GW, The Painting Phase. Their podcast is super interesting, if you wanna hear stories from people who were in the trenches (and commanders tent) at GW during the past decades. Also for batreps, my absolute favorite is Liam Dempsey. His channel has grown a lot this year, he recently moved into an actual studio that looks incredible. Their videos are very relaxed and not at all competitive, they focus much more on narrative play. They are also very much NOT family-friendly. They are "garage-hammer" through and through and have a really good attitude towards the game and hobby.

Lore: Mr Bones. Has the good memes and funny info in videos.

Haha, thanks for the shoutout, my dudes! I'll be back on the wagon before you know it.

Just want to shoutout Mr.Bones 40k. He has a fun delivery, and has recently been doing an interesting series on Space Marine successor chapters, highlighting ones people likely haven't heard of.

Shoutout to Eons of Battle. Little doofy but he's a big inspiration to painting for me. I learned about sprue goo, using baking soda and super glue to lock in a pinned miniature, many ways to make cool bases like slime, lava, snow and rain/puddles, his Mixture for Black Templar armor is insanely good for how fast you can apply it which works for any black army in general... so much He also does alot of challenge videos, building terrain, model news updates. He does a bit of everything and I can't recommend them enough

Early in my time in 40k, I played with Skari and he's still one of the best opponents I've ever had. he was basically my first impression, and it was probably the best you could get, much love.

Snipe and Wib are fantastic and it's a crime that they have less than 50k subs.

What do they specialize?

That’s an incredible list of amazing creators. Warhammer hasn’t ever had so many great options to watch and learn from. Very aspirational for a small channel like myself! Keep up the great work chaps!

Massively recommend Seige Studios podcast, they run a painting commission business and talk about all things hobbying with lots of actionable tips, great while you're painting and can try them out. As a Brit I enjoy their understated demeanor and delivery and the feeling of three mates just chatting. They are pros but content doesnt at all require you be a pro yourself

Thanks for the recommendation!

I never get tired of the little visual gags in the youtube videos. I was cackling at the flashbang. Also in absolute agreement that the universe is determined to make the wheel of misfortune combat patrol series as amusing as possible (at one of the host's expense).

EonsOfBattle has tons of videos for basing and terrain if there was a specialist in that it’d be him. Weshammer also deserves a shoutout. You’re missing out on some of the best lore videos ever made

I'm much more of an AoS guy. Here are my thoughts: HeyWoah - I saw a battle report where I witnessed how strong Chaos Chosen are in Slaves to Darkness. I watched his S2D deep dive and fell in love with the faction. I painted my free Vindictor at my local Warhammer store, so I watched HW's Stormcast deep dive and sort of fell in love with the faction. I have watched those two videos and his "Every faction" videos wayyy too many times and they never get old. Season of War - yep, among the best AoS battle reports out there. Top tier production value with a great balance of detail and speed. My recommendations: Battle shock Wargaming - My other favorite AoS battle report team. Still solid production value and they seem to be very competitive players. Stormkeep - Focused on Stormcast, but they do deep dives on just about everything as it comes out. It's just a PowerPoint while a handful of friends analyze everything to death from a competitive perspective. Juan Hidalgo - He attempts to replicate 'eavy metal style. He reminds me a lot of the war hipster but he goes in a little more detail. Don't try to copy him exactly. He will do 5 progressively brighter edge highlights. You only need to do one.

Pancreasnowork is probably my favourite 40k loretuber. Great sense of humor that I click with, loves the Eldar, loves the elves, talks about fantasy and AoS, shits on the imperium and the emperor every chance he gets. Man of culture. His non warhammer videos are also nice, as he occasionally takes a little dip into halo and star wars. The other youtubers from Pancrease's Lorecrimes podcast are also incredible loretubers. Deadlifts for the Dark Gods mostly makes lore shorts but they're pretty nice. And both The Amber King and The Rememberancer have really high quality, good production lore videos. The Rememberancer particularly has SO MUCH 30k content, its kinda insane. In the same vein as Pancrease though, another loretuber I highly recommend is Live! From the Black Library. Chrono is so good at finding these really cool obscure lore tidbits that I think some people would really enjoy. I've rarely seen people go into the older lore of 40k so well. He is often very critical when it comes to 40k literature though, and can rip certain narratives apart, but usually when he does that its honestly pretty warranted.

highly recommend Alfabusa's if the emperor had a text to speech device series very good comedy lore bits and just pretty entertaining
