  • Absolutely Essential Kings of War listening

    Long time listener who just keeps coming back for every episode. Really appreciate all the effort put into sound quality on most episodes. Someone tell Rob there's a terrain crate owlbear he can use as a Guardian Brute

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

878 - Rocks and Cows with Terry Erickson
Q: What are your hopes for the event and what makes Rocks and Cows special?
The hopes are to attract enough players to qualify for Masters, grow the local scene, and offer a unique, enjoyable experience that isn't found at other events, including the Running of the Cows and alternate deployments to refresh standard gameplay.
868 - Ryan Lampien and Nic Murray Chat
Q: How do you feel about the transition to fourth edition overall?
People generally feel that the faster, cleaner rules make it easier to learn and play, while preserving enough depth for experienced players to craft nuanced lists and strategies.
868 - Ryan Lampien and Nic Murray Chat
Q: What standouts from the fracture book do you think will influence games the most?
The standout elements include the individual loot tokens scoring, the pathfinder changes, and the new generic commands that increase tactical possibilities and terrain interaction, which together push players to rethink deployment and timing.
843 - Midwest US Masters 2026 Update
Q: Why was Saint Thomas Academy chosen as the venue for the US Masters this year?
The hosts explain that the venue offers a large, centralized space with easy access from parking and hotels, room for live streaming and adjacent rooms for commentators, and on-site food options to keep players in one location and reduce travel fatigue.
832 - Q&A at Clash of Kings Australia with Ronnie Renton
Q: Will we get new units along with the heroes?
Initially, the champions will be released as is, but there may be future additions based on the success of the champions.
