Miniwargaming does a few batreps each month. They just posted a batrep involving three people and Skype. Basicly, the Chaos player is at the table, and the Ork player is disabled in a wheelchair and can't come to the venue, so a third player is serving as his proxy to move models for him as they play via Skype. I really, really like this idea and massive kudos to MWG for doing this.

I saw that video but haven't had a chance to watch it yet. I think it is a fantastic thing to do. I enjoy their work so far.

I've just started watching MWG's videos and I think they do an excellent job of covering what goes on in the games, showing moves and dice rolls to keep things in context. It's a much better approach than a lot of these videos that just show the board lay out after each turn.

I honestly find the MWG guys kind of annoying, but massive kudos to them for doing such a selfless act of kindness for this player.

He's a bit hyperactive yes. Be thankful he isn't doing muscle flexing videos like hes done in the past on the site....
