Joined by Firelock Games' own Mike Tunez, Dan, Garrett and Joseph get a full update on the goings on at Firelock Games, including updates on Blood & Plunder, Port Royal and Oak & Iron.After getting the exclusive scoop, we have a great conversation on tactics in Blood & Plunder. Swarm lists (many cheap models) have been strong for a long time in Blood & Plunder, but Elite lists (fewer, high cost models) have been placing high at tournaments as well. Fighting against these extremes on the Force Building spectrum can be challenging! With Mike's great insight, we got over some of the strengths and weaknesses of the lists, giving tips and tricks for how to play them and how to counter them.

This episode I speak once again to Mike Tuñez of Firelock Games. Firelock Games are most renowned for their historical skirmish games set in the 1600-1700’s, thats the age of privateers, pirates, and freebooters to you and me. As this show is live Firelock are in the midst of a new Kickstarter campaign designed to produce a giant section of all their minis in plastic. I am a huge plastic fan, mostly due to the weight, ease of transport, the forgiving nature when you drop it, but also the customization that can occur between models within ranges. I also love the new plastic ships Firelock are beginning to produce. You can grab a 28mm plastic Sloop in this campaign, I have signed up for 3. I cant think of any other plastic minis in this genre on the market right now, or indeed a plastic Sloop of this scale so I am super excited, and not just about that but also because Mike and Firelock are superb people and they deserve every success.  As you know, the show isnt a sales pitch, Mike and I discuss beard maintenance, the broad range of products offered by Firelock, how difficult it must have been living in that era, an a whole bunch of other things as they occur.  If Firelock’s current campaign does appeal to you or to someone you know then check it out, its a great way to support great people and get yourself some cool hobby/gaming challenges too.  https://www.kickstarter.com/discover/advanced?ref=nav_search&term=firelock%20games%20
