Since I've now reached show #11, I thought that I'd better introduce a little more order into the show. Therefore, I have now divided the show into several sections: Rumblings - I discuss anything that has recently caught my attention in the world of boardgames and miniature wargames. Boardgame Ballyhoo - I review a boardgame that I have recently played Wargames Rules Ruminations - I review one or more sets of rules for wargaming with miniatures. This is usually themed for a particular period/genre each week. Musings about Miniatures - I review a range of figures. These are usually figures that can be used with the rules reviewed in the 'Ruminations' section of the show.
In this, episode 11 of the Meeples & Miniatures podcast, the main topic is wargaming the Vietnam war. I discuss two rulesets for gaming the conflict: "Charlie Company" & "FNG", and then review what miniatures can be used to game this conflict in 28mm.
The Show: 00:00 - Intro 02:00 - Rumblings. This week I discuss news of releases from North Star, HLBS, Tumbling Dice and Hasslefree. 08:00 - Boardgame Ballyhoo. This time, I review the boardgame 'Hive'. 12:25 - Wargames Rules Ruminations. Review of rules for wargaming Vietnam with miniatures. 13:40 - Review of 'Charlie Company' by RAFM 25:25 - Review of 'FNG' by Two Hour Wargames 43:40 - Musings about Miniatures. 28mm figures and vehicles for gaming Vietnam. 64:00 - Closing comments
I hope that you find the show useful, informative and entertaining. Enjoy!
Neil.
