Direct Misfire - a Kings of War Podcast

DM Missive: CoK 24 updates!

The seers have spoken and the curtain has been lifted. Have the the prophecies been fulfilled or shall the whining continue for another year?

That's right, it's time to unwrap the gift Mantic has given to see if the last three episodes made any impact at all. Inside this ep the lads cover a whole bunch of their favorite goodies found in the imminent release of the latest Clash of Kings book. 

Also in this episode the fellas take a punt at who'll win this years Australian Masters tournament.

Enjoy!

PS. Thanks again Mantic Games for the review copy of the book... if only we had checked our emails before recording the first wish-listing episode >.<

DM Missive: CoK wish-listing Pt 3

It's here! The final part in the long awaited Whinge-Fest Trilogy!
Wrapping up this epic saga, the lads attempt to find the imperfections of the Evil aligned armies and take a backseat driver approach to resolving them. 

There's not much more to be said really, so I guess I won't. :)

Enjoy! 

DM Missive: CoK wish-listing Pt2

What's this?! An episode being released within two weeks of the previous one? Yes indeedy.
The guys have come good for once and are back again to whinge about the current state of the Neutral aligned armies and what needs a "fixin'".  

Enjoy!

DM Missive: CoK wish-listing Pt 1

Ho Ho Ho! Yes, we may still be a few months out from Festivus but it won't stop us from acting spoiled and asking for things. So we have. 

Join us as we run through all of the Good aligned armies and point out their flaws and how they could be improved. While this will have no bearing on the upcoming Clash of Kings book, it's always nice to dream. 

Let us know what's on your wish list for the armies being discussed. :)

Enjoy!

DM Missive: NA changes, US Master list review, Convic 2023 wrap up

Brrr... It's cold in here. There must be some Northern Alliance updates in the atmosphere!*

Yes, that's right. The new Northern Alliance changes have dropped and we're here to go over each and every change. Here's hoping you've stocked up on frozen tokens; you're going to need them.

Not only that, we take a look at the winning US Masters list, isolated from the pilot in control of the thing.
The lads also attended a two day tournament "Convic 2023" and break down their failing and successes. 

Enjoy!

*It's unlikely that the Northern Alliance are the reason for the downshift in temperature and more the fact that it is Winter in this part of the world. 

Convic 23 - Tournament lists & how to beat them!

We're back!   Bensome, Sellick and new guy Andrew run through 10 lists from the upcoming ConVic 23 tournament. We discuss the units, strategies and  where we think some of the weaknesses are!  Will the new changes to nightstalkers make them the ones to beat? or will the new look army and guile of Jeff Traish take it out again?

ConVic 23 has an extremely strong field with 8x 2022 Aussie masters players attending so the battle for the top spot will be fierce... but quite relaxing for the rest of us,  with 1970 prices beers to guide us through the two days.  We all know the real winner is Kings of War.

Slap the headphones in and give us a  listen.

PS:  Forgot totally about convic but want to attend even for one day? Feel free to contact Geoff,  Sellick or Andrew Goodman and we'll get you a game.

Direct Misfire: Nights ep feat. Spoon

No need to double check if you're listening to an episode that was recorded back in 2016... (have we really been recording for that long?!) Yes that's right, in this nostalgia trip of an episode, former co-host Spoon makes his return!

Following up that old-timey goodness is the fact that we chat Warhammer 6th edition of all things. 
The trip doesn't stop there; this episode was recorded using the very first mic purchased for the podcast. Such memories. Much wow (and ambient room echo).

The trip doesn't last that long, it's a pretty short ep, but good things come in small packages. 

Pull up a very squeaky chair (apologies in advance) and enjoy!
