Like a soothing salve on the burn of 2021, the lads return after an unexpected hiatus. With them come gifts in the form of their intended lists for the Australian Clash of Kings tournament this coming weekend.
So come and join them as they discuss the ins and outs of unit choices, leaving you in awe, confused, bemused, or inspired (maybe a combination of all 4?).
Enjoy!
PS. A short, sweet episode this may be but fear not they will return, live from the tournament itself in just a few days! :o

Hold on to your britches because a bumper interview spectacular is dropping! Rob and Kyle join the fellas, on separate occasions, to earn their keep with Mantic. (Are you listening Ronnie, they're both doing their job).
First up is Social Media Mogul Rob to explain what's going down at the end of the month. TLDR: a worldwide narrative games weekend, that's what. All aboard the hype train as it's about to leave the station.
Following that Kyle, the guy from the US who also works for Mantic (sorry, I forget your title... something about sales and distribution?) dials-in to talk all things Halflings. Not only that, he answers some very interesting questions about the upcoming Clash of Kings update. Listen as he nimbly deflects shots aimed to spill some juicy secrets, while giving us some new info that'll sure blow your mind!
*surprised pikachu meme*
Enjoy!

"If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" a philosophical thought experiment that Bensome, Sellick and Huw absolutely devour during our new review of the Sylvan Kin Army!
You voted for it, you get it! We talk shrubs, small tree's, big tree's and big daddy tree's and provide detailed guidance on how to plan your next garden...errr.. army list!
Listen along if you agree, disagree you're content or outraged - let us know on facebook, twitter or email!
Cheers,

Hey-ho Champerinos!
After a bit of a time off Bensome and Huw thought it might be nice to touch base.
Joining them on this base-touching episode is #1 fan, Andrew (known from such works as "guest on last years Cancon casts") as they chat about what's been going on and what's coming up.
Enjoy!

Happy New Year! We're back with a bumper special to kick off 2021. Join us as we chat about the year that was and the year to come.
Also on the menu are the previously unreleased Kings of Fightclub episodes, including the semi-final and grand finals.
That's not all!
Special guest Ronnie Renton joins the cast for yarn, answers some questions (including planned releases for 2021) and we test the KoW knowledge of Ronnie and Huw in a game show we created for the occasion.
All that and more in the very first cast for the year.
Enjoy!

As with all life, there's winners and losers and the Clash of Kings 2021 update is no different!
Join Bensome, Sellick and Huw as we bypass the campaign & lore to dive into the changes that impact your army!
Will undead get the nerf everyone required? Will Huw love the new Ratkin character? Does the Wiltfather pay childsupport? Our very detailed and slightly intoxicated review has the answers!
Give us a shout out on facebook or twitter if you agree or not!
Cheers,

The Direct Misfire cats talk through how they see the relative power rankings of the Kings of War armies, just prior to the release of Clash of Kings 2020.
We're interested to hear what you think. Are they way off? What tier would you put the armies into? Are auto-wound dwarves actually fine? Does Morgoth need a buff? Share all your bad ideas on the Direct Misfire Facebook page!
