  • Excellent Wargaming Podcast

    I’ve been listening since the very first episode. The game reviews are excellent.

    I find that I am in general agreement with the rankings that have been applied to various war games. Specifically, I’ve played GCACW, LOB, OCS, the US Civil War, and Empire of the Sun.

    I also enjoy the book and podcast recommendations as well as the rpg discussion.

    Highly recommend!!

  • Lounge back, listen and learn

    For a board gamer who wants to get into war games, but didn’t know where to start, this podcast helps me find my way. And it’s a pleasure to listen to. The passion and knowledge they both share for these games is contagious. I enjoy the war game guessing game, the discussion around what they’re playing, the deep dive into one game each episode and also really like their other chatter- expect discussion around cocktails, historical war books, game cons, and more.
