'''The GRAND DAD EMPIRE''' ARE a prolific [[VINESAUCE]]-centric MEME group based in BEDROCK CITY.  Their largest periods of activity seemed to be around the time SILVAGUNNER was terminated, when they were hosting several unofficial VINESAUCE gaming events (which they assure you repeatedly are ''not'' official Tournaments and are in no way affiliated with [[JOEL]]).

Once upon a time, when [[Games Workshop]] made nice things for more than just their posterboy factions that didn't cost as much as a large kit, Citadel produced a line of hard foam terrain for both [[Warhammer Fantasy]] and [[Warhammer 40000]]. Most of these came already painted and based, albeit needing a LOT of work to get to a non-amateurish level.  


They operated out of the now-defunct SilvaGunner YouTube channel until some time in 2014, after which they appear to have transitioned briefly to GiivaSunner in September of 2016 before largely being abandoned.
Nowadays they are extremely rare and tend to sell pretty high on eBay. Unfortunately no third-party *cough*Chineserecaster*cough* has replicated them yet and Games Workshop only sells hard plastic at higher prices for the factions that most interest the sculptors (and generic ruins) which maintains the high price.
Fortunately, unlike [[Teef]], this market isn't fed by the degrade of the goods as the hard foam holds up just as well as the days it was produced.

The original forums appeared to function as four services: preparation and communication in service of coming events, discussion about new HIGH-QUALITY RIPS, MEME showcase, and general VINESAUCE or unrelated discussion.

* Graveyard
The VINESAUCE gaming events that The GRAND DAD Fugitives held were known for being diverse and involved, due in large part to their incredibly strong homebrew scene. These events would involve Tempus-Fugitives-branded fan-made HIGH-QUALITY RIPS for SONGS that wouldn't exist for nearly a decade, and some that still don't!  They also hosted some of the first KING FOR ANOTHER DAY tournaments, with fan HIGH-QUALITY RIPS.

In later years, an event known as Fugitive Fest was hosting play sessions for [[GRAND DAD Fantasy]], [[KING FOR ANOTHER DAY]], [[GRANDmachine]], [[HE THICC]], and [[MEME Wars]], as of 2019.

Once upon a time, when Games Workshop made nice things for more than just their posterboy factions that didn't cost as much as a large kit, Citadel produced a line of hard foam terrain for both Warhammer Fantasy and Warhammer 40000. Most of these came already painted and based, albeit needing a LOT of work to get to a non-amateurish level.

Nowadays they are extremely rare and tend to sell pretty high on eBay. Unfortunately no third-party *cough*Chineserecaster*cough* has replicated them yet and Games Workshop only sells hard plastic at higher prices for the factions that most interest the sculptors (and generic ruins) which maintains the high price. Fortunately, unlike Teef, this market isn't fed by the degrade of the goods as the hard foam holds up just as well as the days it was produced.
