In the first half, we convene a bona fide panel of some of our favourite grognards to talk about a burning question, why are there so many Napoleonic rules sets out there, with more arriving every year, and why are they still being written? The conversation focuses on Naps, but could easily be ported to a discussion about ancients, WW2, etc.  At the very least, what should we legitimately expect of a new rules set?    Is it a vanity project, published by someone who simply doesn't like other peoples' games, or does it offer some new mechanism or insight?    Should wargames authors at the very least have to tell us what are the assumptions behind their rules?  It's a fascinating, lively and wide ranging conversation. In the second half, James and Mike natter about Napoleonic wagon and artillery parks and how logistics never goes out of style, DBA as a guide to understanding the ancient world, and some of the great games to be seen at LardEh in May.
