    This podcast is on my list of ones I have to listen to. I encourage anyone who has listened in the past and not liked it to take another listen. There have been a lot of changes in the last year or two with a new co-host, more guests, and a new format. It is a shorter show that focuses on specific topics ranging from army reviews, model reviews, tactics, tournaments, and everything hobby.

    In a crowded podcast genera that all have very similar formats, WiscoDice is trying to change things u... more

  • Good show

    These guys have known each other forever and it shows. Some of the discussions they have on the cast would go to blows with 2 other people, but they accept each other's opinion, which they are both equally as stubborn about. They have some strong opinions on the hobby aspect of Warhammer and do a lot of Midwest Tourney coverage.

  • A Great Start!

    This is a great podcast to get an overview of many aspects of the hobby. The host attened many tournaments, so if tournament coverage is your thing then look no further.

    The host also make a point to cover other topics, my favorite recent episode focused on painting an army. This episode had many gems of painting tips for beginners and even vets. I found the tip of starting to learn freehand by putting basic patterns on shields particularly useful and am now using it to hopefully end my fear o... more

Josh from Lone Colossus Games Interview
Q: Really interesting to hear how you balance accessibility with depth. How many levels does Wyrmlings go up to, and how does advancement work in a level-less system?
Wyrmlings uses a level-less system where advancement happens through boxes earned per session or adventure, allowing gradual growth without traditional level milestones. Players can earn multiple advancement boxes per session and upgrade or change talents as they progress, with dragon and friendship talents guiding group dynamics.
