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!

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.

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.

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!

Bensome, Sellick and Huw navigate life to record the much awaited 2023 Kings of War power Rankings!
Do you play with a current heavy weight of the Kings of War or dominating with an underdog? Listen in as we run through our tiers assigning armies and discussing differences in our SABCD!
Let us know what you agree or disagree with!

Hey, do you happen to know what time it is? Correct, it's podcast-episode-released-o'clock!
We thought we'd ring in the New Year a month late, because that's how we roll... and by ring I mean talk Kings of War.
Stop attempting to fulfil your New Year resolutions and have a listen as we talk about the recent Aussie Clash of Kings, and drop a few tasty morsels on the mid-year Convic tourney. Not only that, we run through the details on the National Kings of War slow-grow which is currently taking place.
Enjoy!
PS: Don't worry, your resolutions will still be there laying all forgotten and neglected once you're done with the podcast. ;)

It's beginning to look a lot like... the Australian Masters! That's right, just around the corner is perhaps the best event since the last one that happened.
Ten of the nations' most competitive / lucky / accidental winners are gathering to decide who will take the top spot as Australia's best. The lists have been submitted, the first round already drawn, and so all that is left is to take a look at what each player thinks is a winning army.
Cast your votes, read over Ken Ferris (competitor and event organiser) Form Guide for the odds (see link at the bottom of this post), take a punt, and join in on the action!
Don't forget, the narrative event which is taking place the day before is still accepting generals. It's set to be a tip top weekend so don't miss that one. https://fb.me/e/2XKvT0VQl
Enjoy!
