“So I was introduced to this podcast through the Paradox forums when TMA previewed HOI4 in the Summer. After that I found out they reviewed Order of Battle Pacific, then they talked about and questioned long time Strategy mechanics, board games which I never managed to experience, told amazing stories from the games they played, and so much more.
I have loved strategy games ever since I was kid, playing iconic games like Warcraft 2 (on the PSOne), SW Battlegrounds, C&C Generals, Rome Total War, COH, World in Conflict, Hearts of Iron 3, and so on to this day.
It's my favorite genre but I never really found people who I could talk or listen to regarding strategy games. If anything, it's usually about Starcraft 2 or MOBAs :/
But TMA fills that void and more. It has made me become more aware of gameplay mechanics, how gameplay or factions are designed, what's going on in the board gaming section, and the stories they tell keep me enticed.
I listen to them while I play games (usually Strategy games :P ) or when I go for a jog.
The podcast is filled with very interesting, smart, and engaging hosts and guests and they have given me a lot of insight and enjoyment since the Summer.
Thank you! :)
