Customer Reviews
Excellent takes on games that need more coverage!
This is much needed content!
I would love to hear y’alls take on This Quar’s War and Patrol Aegis (Ion Age).
Great show!
This show is a valuable resource to learn about new war games in a hobby that tends to focus entirely on Games Workshop.
Meh
If you don’t mind podcasts that use words like “problematic” or ones that end in “..ist” then you will probably find this one mediocre.
However, if you are annoyed by gaming podcasters who can’t go one hour without pushing their political views on you then stay clear.
