As always on the show we delve into Tim’s back story along with talking about the core and key mechanics for Ragnarok and also the Morpheus engine that Tim has created which hints at many more games to come.
Read Moregame and the upcoming Assassins Creed game. Triton Noir is a company formed by Thibaud in Montreal Canada, their first game V Commandos was kick-started & off the back of that Assassins Creed Brotherhood of Venice, which sees an evolution and refinement of the V Commandos dynamic, came to Kickstarter recently and saw over 1.3 million Canadian dollars pledged. The late pledge is open until November 2019 so I encourage you to take a look at the game if you haven’t already. Paint All The Minis is an independent entity and that is my opinion, just my opinion alone but anything I felt that was missing in V Commandos, which is fantastic by the way and you should check that out too, has been addressed by the Assassins Creed game. Thibaud came across as an intelligent, kind, open, and enthusiastic person and it is always a delight to find someone behind something you love is such a great person too. I wish Thibaud all the best in the future and I cant wait to see what he comes up with next.

Seb is an amazing painter and is currently a studio painter for Mythic Games, you have probably seen his work for Time of Legends: Joan of Arc, Solomon Kane, or Reichbusters. You may have also seen his work on Moonstone from Goblin King Games which was featured recently on the podcast. We cover his personal history and chat over anything interesting that came up along with some more painting focused questions on his preferences and experience.
Read MoreThis week I speak to Robert Nelson who has been playing tabletop games for a good number of years. We talked about his first experiences of tabletop games & then also what motivated him to get involved creating a local gaming club & how he has been involved with this on and off for over 25 years. Ribble Warriors is the name of this club and it would be my local gaming club if I was living in the UK right now so I have been interested in following along with their activities and I hope I can meet them and get to know them in the future. Gaming clubs really interest me and it was great listening to Robert’s experience and insight into them. I thank him for taking time to talk to me and I am keen to speak to more people like Robert in the future, so if you are involved in your local gaming club then you can fire me a message.
Read MoreThis episode I talk to Dan about all of the reasons why he loves Moonstone. You may remember in episode 123 I spoke to Tom Greenway about his personal history and also Moonstone from a creators standpoint. As you know Paint All The Minis is about generating and sharing goodwill in the hobby community and it has been great to put together 2 Moonstone podcasts to try to get more people aware of this game as it is one I have a genuine interest in. It is always great when you have an interest in something and when you look a little closer it only pulls you further in. Tom seems a really genuine and positive person. Moonstone is innovative and engaging. I wish the game all the best and it has been great learning more about it over the last 6 - 8 weeks.
Read MoreThis episode I talk to Tom Greenway of Goblin King Games. Tom created the tabletop skirmish game Moonstone. It features a number of innovative features and components that make the game truly stand out from others such as the melee and arcane components along with some amazing minis full of character. I won’t spoil any of the conversation but I will say that there is a current Kickstarter for Moonstone available and will be until April 12, so if you are a prompt listener you can take a look, and if you are listening to us in the future then there is still an opportunity to hear if Moonstone is for you and you can take a look and see if it is for you.

I wont spoil the story about how all this came about but what I will say is that the minis that are created for Stoessi’s Heroes are brilliant and would certainly take pride of place in your armies and give you a brilliant painting challenge.

As you will hear Trenchworx are a company creating mostly 1:56th scale resin & metal armoured fighting vehicles for WW2 games such as bolt action & Chain of Command but also do a lot of work for other games and companies in terms of creating master moulds and casting models. It was really interesting hearing from Dave how Trenchworx evolved and developed. It is always interesting hearing of how a company has moved from inception to current activity. I dont want to spoil any of the chat but there are some great points made by Dave and it was a genuine pleasure to spend an hour with him.
