Subject: Dave from Miniature Wargaming and Dark Potential takes paintball shots to bare chest
"Orkses never lost a battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!"
I dig how in a setting where giant, muscled fungus men ride Mad Max cars and use their own teeth as currency, the concept of little engineering dudes with beards was considered a step too far down the aisle of silliness.

Not to get all tough-guy, but I fail to see what the big deal is. I've been hit at close range on bare skin with paintball guns before. It stings like a bitch, but it's part of the game. Hell, usually when I paintball, it's too hot out to wear much more than jeans and a t-shirt anyway.
Actually got hit on the knuckle once, got so swollen from it I couldn't move the finger.

This. It really isn't anything to get scared at. It'll hurt, but on the pain scale, it's not even close to a kick in the balls.
Once took a paintball to the ear. Yeah. Incidentally, I learned that ski masks are in no way an appropriate replacement to a full helmet.

In which case, posting this into the existing thread for that kickstarter rather than starting a new thread that has no explanation or link to the project might have been more useful...

Nice public service for Dark Potential !
But thats not fun, leave your youtube message to have Matt shot instead
Welp thats exactly what it was. A Public "fan"service to get people interested in Dark Potential as mentioned, also explained in the video.

And without some sort of explanation as to just what this 'Dark Potential' is, what reason would anyone have to think that a video of some guy with his shirt off is anything whatsoever to do with wargaming?
