This podcast, hosted by two legendary titans is absolutely stupendous. The insight that Vince and Adam give into game design, game play, narrative, and hobby is second to none. Can’t recommend this podcast highly enough.
Two experienced wargame players and designers sit down and discuss everything about that space in an engaging and informative way. I highly recommend this podcast for anyone interested in the topic.
Great addition to your guys’ YouTube channels. Always excited to support what either of you are doing!
Also, Vince - I swear, one more episode where you talk about Battletech and I’m gonna play. I’ll do it!! Don’t test me, because I’ll do it! :p
I love this podcast. It’s laid-back and extremely informative.
Love listening to this podcast! Two of my favorite YouTube/miniature painters having discussions about my new hobby and are from my generation. I have both Majestic 13 and Space Station Zero and of course the zines. Looking forward to the next game.
