The real gamers game face-to-face tag line is pretty catchy. That is one of the explanations I give quite often when talking about tabletop gaming, the face to face / camaraderie aspect that WH offers.

To see the pain and defeat in your opponents eye as the final round approaches and he is striving to salvage the game from a massacre to only a solid victory….mwhaaaa

What is a youth? Impetuous fire.
What is a maid? Ice and desire.

Sorry, it's NOT the first ever GW commercial in the USA. There have been brief TV ads in Maryland over the past couple years. They had very limited runs, only on certain cable channels, and generally only at times the rates were somewhat lower, but it has been done before.

Too late I'm afraid. The madness is spreading. I saw this same topic posted in an almost identical way on another forum. I took the trouble to post there just as I did here early on that this is NOT the first time GW has run an advert on TV in the US. On the other hand, this isn't anywhere near the craziest rumor topic related to GW we're likely to hear, I'm sure there will be others with far more "madness" involved coming along shortly.

Here's a working youtube link of it.

As if on cue, you hear two people singing from the stairwell, and the door is opened and a pair of very smelly, very dirty guardsmen stumble in, completely drunk, and covered in vomit, and immediately collapse unconsious on the porch. You drag them to their beds, realising that they will not be waking up for some time.
