In this episode of Wargaming Recon, Peter Bryant step in as host alongside Robert Dunn as we navigate through listener-submitted questions gathered from our Facebook page. Jonathan, our usual host, has taken a break, and we make the most of this opportunity to engage with our audience by addressing their curiosities and thoughts about the gaming world. While the question pool isn't vast, we decide to maximize the engagement by discussing each query thoroughly. Our first round of questions comes from frequent contributor Brian Butler, whose inquiries spark lively conversations. We dive deep into the debate of dice types, favoring D6s for their iconic status and versatility, followed by a friendly rivalry between the D6 and D10. Robert shares fond memories of rolling heaps of D6s in early games, asserting the classic familiarity they bring compared to more contemporary dice. We then shift to a more hands-on topic: brushes for miniature painting. With Robert's love for wargaming and painting, we debate the merits of natural versus synthetic brushes. Through our banter, we touch upon personal experiences with painting miniatures, the differences in functionality of brush types, and the inevitable challenge of maintaining them during a creative session. As Robert prepares for an upcoming skirmish game called Moar Blood, he details the excitement of using specialized tools like dry brushes, indicating how they can streamline the painting process for repeated terrain features. Leading up to our next series of questions, Robert initiates discussions on various gaming themes and practices, segueing into a nostalgic reflection on his early gaming experiences. We reminisce about unforgettable moments, from crafting scenes for armies of miniature figures to the thrill of adventuring through beloved games like BattleTech and Car Wars. Here, Robert vividly recounts a particularly creative endeavor in his youth—transforming plastic army figures into a dramatic battle scene after a memorable shooting session. As we continue to engage with listeners' inquiries, we explore varied topics such as player dynamics in tabletop settings, the shifts in gaming popularity over the years, and modern game mechanics that reflect evolving trends in the gaming community. Our discussions touch upon the joys and frustrations of waiting for turns in multi-player games amid interactions with less experienced players, illustrating the balance of patience and enthusiasm that characterizes the gaming culture. We also address intriguing questions regarding logistics and feasibility for wargaming events, including the most effective strategies for transporting materials and miniatures. Robert shares innovative approaches to packaging and organizing gaming gear, which enhances the experience of participating in conventions and gaming sessions. As we wrap up the episode, we look forward to expanding upon these discussions in future installments. With Jonathan's return on the horizon, we encourage listeners to continue submitting their questions and topics of interest.

     Saul was persuing the internet looking at Steam Punk  RPGs and stumbled across  Carbon Grey a Diesel Punk RPG by Magnetic Press.  It uses a slightly tweaked version of the Classic Star Wars D6 system.  Its quick and easy to understand and play.   That Star Wars D6 system has always been liked for its playablity and fun.        Carbon Grey is set in a alternate world where the 1st Kaiser is saved by a shepard that was struck by a meteorite which gets lodged in his chest and games super powers.  The Kaiser makes him his bodyguard.   That shepard's children hand super powers though not as powerful as their father.  They are all female and are called the Sisters Grey.  The KaIser uses the Sisters as shock troops and special forces unit and they kick ass.   With the Sisters Grey the Kaiser is able to form an empire that lasts hundred years.   Early in the 20th Century some countries revolt and a war ensues.       This is the setting for Carbon Grey.  It was based on a set of comic books which are now available as graphic novels.  Also published by Magnetic Press.     Age of Steel also calls itself a Diesel Punk game.  Its setting is also around the 1920's in a very Earth like world called Neres.  But where Mechs are utilized in much of the world.  From mechs that are used to load heavy equipment to mechs made for war.   It is also uses a D6 dice pool system but it is unique to this system. You get to throw as many D6s as your attribute and your skill dictates what you need to roll for a success.  Seems super simple and easy to understand.     As Always Thank You All for Listening.    Web Art by Jim Foster     Episode Art by Michael Shean-Jones     You can download the Carbon Grey Quckstart here,         https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/367220/Carbon-Grey-RPG--Quickstart-Guide     You can buy Age of Steel here at Drivetrurpg,         https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/230642/Age-of-Steel    Music by Tim Kulig, song Steam Driven Trailer.    Available from Tribeofnoise.com    Used with CC license 4.0     https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode

Byron Hatfield's Public House Theatre has been a huge boon to the Chicago comedy community, and we're stoked to have a chat with Byron this week. In true nerd fashion, though, Byron lets the dice do the talking as we roll D6s to determine our topic from a list generated by Mr. Hatfield right before the show. What do we cover? Well, we can't take all the fun out of the journey, but be ready to hear about proud achievements, major frustrations, and, appropriately, a little more D&D. 

It’s time to get a set of D6s ready to navigate your way through a show made up of some of our favourite new releases and reissues. The show takes its title from a splendid new release by friend of … Continue reading →
