This week I speak to Graham Davey of Grey for Now Games. Graham has a deep, progressive, and interesting history in the hobby world. From working in a GW store, to Editorial, to White Dwarf, to writing his own games such as Test of Honour, 0200hrs, and most recently Guards of Traitors Toll. Such an interesting chap with so many insights and stories, hard to fit them into one episode! I hope you enjoy this one and maybe we can coerce him on to another episode with the promise of a pack of hobnobs.

Thanks to Graham for taking the time to speak to us, we hope you all enjoy the show.

This week I speak to Tom Greenway of Goblin King Games, the creators of the excellent Moonstone fantasy skirmish game. He and it need no introduction, its a fantastic game, he is a fantastic guy!!

Hope you enjoy the noises we both made and the recording of them.

This week is the second conversation with Randall from the Imperial Minis Youtube channel. We pick up from the chat we had in episode 228, go and listen to that one if you havent already so you are up to speed before this one. In this show we talk about his YouTube channel, we talk about how he loves it when people call him Randy, his love of Moonstone, and much much more!

I feel fortunate to meet people like Randall, the world is better, and the hobby is richer and deeper because of people like him, thanks Randall. Check out his YouTube channel and you can also check out the Paint All The Minis website where you can see an article from Randall about painting eyes.

This week I talk once again to the amazing Mike Tunez of Firelock games. Firelock develop awesomeness. Their games are fun and engaging, from their settings to their mechanics, and all their interactions with us. I find them amazing. One of the biggest reasons why I love this hobby is that where in other hobbies you wouldnt dream of or have access to the big cheese at the top. For example you wouldnt dream of just contacting the guy who made Ping, the golfing company, but in this hobby, people like Mike actively seek interactions with us, its pretty special.

I always enjoy talking to Mike, and knowing who he is, how he is, and they way he would like to deal with us in the hobby makes me what to play the games more and recommend them to others. Great games, great guy.

You can listen to episode 71, 101, 190 before this one if you want so you can get all of the story so far.

Always a pleasure. Thanks Mike.

This week I talk to Vampz, and we talk about how much different things cost. A while ago I started to revisit the idea of value. This something close to my heart and something I have written articles about on the PATM website and we also have around 5 episodes dedicated to this subject, you may remember the sustainable gaming chats we had around episode 150, a group of 3 episodes on the subject. I wanted to revisit the idea and when I was doing my research I checked out a video by Count Vampz Painting and Wargaming where he had plotted out the off the shelf price of getting involved in various tabletop wargames and their comparative costs.

Neither of us are here to poo poo any game purveyor, but it was interesting to see the “buy in” cost of various games we may consider. A game being a thousand AUD less than another is a pretty distinct difference.

I hope you enjoy the chat and remember we dont talk about A in the detriment of B. If you enjoy what you play then do it, we arent trying to change opinion, only offer up some fact. I had fun talking to Vampz and hope you enjoy the noises we made during our hour together.

Hey,

I have a chat with Matty Mac about how we find out about new things, Hobgoblin, and some other bits and bats/odds and sods.

Hope you enjoy!

This week I talk to Tim Prow of Diehard Miniatures. Diehard create old hammer inspired miniatures for us to enjoy. They use traditional sculpting methods and offer unique, interesting, and often quirky sculpts for us to use in the games we play. The minis ooze character, so take a look at them if you enjoy that style and ethos.

In the show Tim and I wend our way down his very own memory lane. We talk about his first steps, writing a letter to GW to help in the eavy metal studio during one school holiday, to his first foray into the hobby industry, to his move to the US, his potential career swap to be a DJ in a strip bar, to the modern day as the leader of Diehard.

It was a pleasure to speak to Tim, I hope you enjoy the show and hearing all his hi jinx and capers.
