Welcome to Episode 5 of View from the Veranda Join Neil Shuck of the Meeples & Miniatures Podcast and Henry Hyde of Battlegames Magazine as they once again get together to discuss all things wargaming. This show is somewhat lighter in subject matter than previous shows, as Henry and Neil chat about some of theings that they have been doing since the last show...and they end up discussing Commands & Colours: Ancients in some depth, as Henry has recently started playing this boardgame from GMT. As you'd expect, tis is only one of several subjects covered during the show - others include creating battle reports for blogs, the Society of Ancients Battle Day and the current state of British Wargaming magazines. So, lots to listen to, in the usual slightly meandering format, so pull up a chair, a glass of your favourite beverage and enjoy the show. |
