I'm busy working on the Saar script, but I just wanted to post a quick update here concerning something related that script which has bothered me ever since I really dove into TI lore.
The "Middle Factions" (races introduced in 3rd edition, like the Saar, Winnu, and Arborec) really aren't well integrated into the lore, or fleshed out in a meaningful way. The only sources we have on them are their faction sheets, and the occasional action card. Which makes my job particularly difficult, as there is way less to go on for these factions than I'd like. For instance, we know from action cards the Saar and Mentak have some sort of relationship, and are potentially even allies. But that's it. No further details. Please Dane, help me out here!
Honestly, I'd love an upcoming Codex to, instead of focusing on the PoK factions, instead work on better integrating the Naalu, Saar, Winnu, Yin, and Arborec into the setting. The Embers and Ghosts don't really need the same treatment, as they both have been tied into the setting quite well (especially in the Ghost's case). But the other Middle Factions are just sort of...there. Nonetheless, I will do what I can to make a compelling and interesting Faction Explained video about the Saar this week! Nothing can stop me!
In the meantime, I've received some new board games, and I filmed some unboxings, which will go up this week, and I am recording the Warhammer v. Twilight Imperium narration currently (its a long one). So look forward to all that, as well as the promised Dune video, which I just need to get around to filming properly... Alright, I think that's all the updates I have for now, so I'll see you in a bit with more videos! Cheers!
