Description
This episode I catch up with Joe McCullough and we talk through the reasoning behind and the tweaks involved in Frostgrave 2nd Edition. Frostgrave was one of my first delves into narrative wargaming once I began to branch out from Warhammer 40k. I found the stories that could be created, the time I spent thinking up narrative, and the memories of the games to be a massive benefit to the hobby for me personally, that gave the hobby so much more depth. I really enjoyed using the framework created by Joe to put my own spin on things and I mention during the show that I feel Frostgrave is a vehicle for me to create great experiences. It came at a time when I was looking for this exact sort of experience, I just didnt know it, the only thing I knew was that I didnt really get a good feeling from competitive wargaming, Frostgrave took me by the hand and led me out of the initial antechamber of the hobby to where I am now, and I cant thank it or Joe enough.  I always enjoy talking to Joe, we open with his roast dinner strategy and then delve into the nuts and bolts of the new edition which is you are a crafty old veteran of Frostgrave or a new apprentice it should give you an insight into the world, the rules, and the structure, I hope you enjoy the show.
