Can you believe the summer is almost at an end? Everyone is planning for ‘going back to school’, England are preparing to finally lose the Ashes series – and I finally get to go away on holiday!

 

However, as a parting summer gift, I’ve uploaded Episode 52 of the Meeples & Miniatures podcast. This is a look back at what I’ve been doing over the summer – the UK Games Expo and Manorcon mainly – but with a bit of extra chat about my favourite Gen Con highlights (I almost felt like I was there) and even some chat about a computer game that would make a great miniatures game.

 

I hope you enjoy the show, and look out for lots of new content coming in September.

This vidcast looks at historical miniature releases for w/e 14th August 2009, and includes new releases from manufacturers such as Warlord Miniatures, Campaign Game Miniatures, Hat Industries, HLBS Co and Gorgon Studios.

In this episode of Meeples & Miniatures, I chat with a man who is a playtester, rules author and reviewer, but is still probably best known for being part of the team of Wargames Journal - Rich Jones.

Incoming! is now on the RSS Feed

Welcome to Episode 14 of Incoming! - the weekly vidcast of historical miniature releases from Meeples & Miniatures

This week, by some strange quirk, all the featured releases are 28mm scale, but it's a real bumper crop!

This week I look at figures from the likes of Wargames Factory, Warlord Miniatures, Copplestone Castings and Tiger Miniatures, amongst others.

Welcome to a much-smaller-than-originally-intended episode of the Meeples & Miniatures Podcast.

In this show, I talk about the Society of Ancients - I chat with Richard Lockwood about the Society's aims and objectives and we chat about Battle Day.

I also review Slingshot - the Society's newsletter/magazine
