Thanks to everyone who has been listening in whether this is your first episode or your 161st, we’ve come a long way and it has been a pleasure to spend my time with you all.

Read MoreThis week I speak to Leandros of Parabellum Wargames. Parabellum recently fully released their tabletop fantasy game Conquest, The Last Argument of Kings. I mention this throughout the show but one of the overriding features of this tabletop massed battle game is how developed it appears to be on its initial release. Also which is really refreshing is that they went straight to market and did not crowd fund. There is nothing wrong with crowd funding per say but it is refreshing to see a game eschew this and go through more traditional methods. Alessio Cavatore of River Horse is the chief rules writer and in a pretty competitive market there are enough things in the game to make it stand out.

I speak to Caleb from Krakenships. Krakenships is a new company that seeks to fill gaps in fantasy RPG and skirmish model sets. If you are looking for non traditional models as you avatar for your RPG and skirmish games then Krakenships might just be for you. Turtle dudes, cat people, and non traditional wood elves came up in our chat as well as the opportunity to visit their website and request certain things. They are also on the last couple of days of their first kickstarter campaign as this comes out (October 13th) so if this sort of thing interests you then toddle over and have a look see.
Read MoreThis week is the 4th and final episode in our mini series where we go into greater depth in what we feel we mean with the term sustainable gaming.

Read MoreThis episode is the first of 4 episodes that will be released over the next month on the topic of sustainable gaming. Doing something in a sustainable fashion is something that I am incredibly interested in, along with why people do the things they do, plus also the external and internal pressures we put on ourselves in our personal and professional lives.
