As this is a test video not much to say, but check the next post for the full follow-up game.

Late night Xwing
Russell Thayer Opens a new channel and the first of his videos to upload is a battle report featuring a very casual game using generic only pilots.
The camera is nice and low and close to the play field which makes it easy to make out all obstacle tokens, dice rolls etc. The only downside being that ships on the far edge of the table disappear out of view of the camera, this happens with a TIE Defender at one point.
All in all the video presentation is very good considering the ammateur setup involved, in the future correcting the dutch angle that he has going on should make for some excellent videos.
The commentary is very sparse, as I mentioned before this is a very casual game between two friends that just happened to be recorded and uploaded to youtube. There is occasional conversation and in fact the host discusses his musings on the posibility of uploading these videos to YouTube. There are occasional long pauses in conversation and as the video hasnt been edited the planning phase can be a bit slow at times.
On the whole this video is a good example of how easy it is to record your game to create X-Wing content for the whole community. A good idea to improve the format would be to edit out the planning phase and maybe have the host and his opponent (or a neutral third party) record a commentary track.

X Wing
Don't expect much of this video. Particularly amateur in its approach and cuts off part way through turn two.
BoLS Battle Report #200 | X-Wing Wave 5 NetLists Battle
I saw this video last week but didn't get round to writing a blog post for it.
Bell of Lost Souls channel published a video where they try out some netlists of the Wave 5 ships.
The video is well presented with the gameplay played back at a slightly elevated speed, but not too fast to make it difficult to follow alone. The channel host also does a good job at solo commentating/narrating the match.
Overall this is a very good video, it's just a shame that Bell of Lost Souls don't produce more X-Wing content as they are a mostly 40K channel.
