Tyranid minidrama i made :)

[DukeMantis]

For a recent tournament we were asked to write out our fluff and stuff for 1 point. We were told an EXTRA point would be awarded if we did something 'above and beyond the normal' to support our submission.

I recorded this at home with my girlfriend for fun, i think it got me a point




Thanks for listening!

[Squire]

Haha, nice work ;D, you clearly put some effort into that!

You're obviously a Brit. What made you end up in Canada, if you don't mind me asking?

[DukeMantis]

I dont mind at all Squire, your powers of deduction are strong

I emigrated here to live with my Canadian girlfriend, been here since 2010!

Nice one. I tend to like Canadians I come across. I've got a friend from Ontario actually, he has an unusual sort of accent. He pronounces his o's in a very distinctive way

Anyway, yea... my powers of deduction. I expect if I was at a remote listening post in the Imperium somewhere I would have received that message, listened intently, then concluded- 'Huh. He seems to be British', before perhaps switching off the receiver and continuing whatever it was I was doing. Maybe painting miniatures

Wow, a Tyranid audio drama is a great idea Maybe I can convince my friends of doing something like this with that old tyranid story of mine.

Great voice acting and sound effects! Sometimes the message was hard to understand with all that shooting and explosions, but I guess that's just how a transmission from a battlefield has to be!

Haha thanks for your comments guys, it was just a bit of fun we threw together on the spur of the moment! I would LOVE to hear some of the other nid peeps try this kind of thing, especially if you have some written stories, my distress call was basically improv with the sounds and structure filled in afterwards...

I was trying to make little parts of the broadcast inaudible, to make it seem more 'real'. But hopefully not enough missed words that the overall story was lost!

That was awesome Mantis. I got chills when he was yelling "bring it down" and you heard the cry of the beast. Awesome work. Now I am requesting a 75min audio drama. Please and Thank you! Oh and more batrep videos!

[DukeMantis]

Thanks jhussey, i had to yell from a bit further away from my mic so i didnt break my speakers

Im in talks with the club over starting our own website this week, one of the things i would very much like to do is start a audio drama miniseries of some kind!

[jhussey]

That would be awesome man. I've youtubed all of Dorklords videos, you guys do amazing stuff. Your batrep narations are superb so I had no doubt the mini drama would impress. Two big thumbs up brother.
