Saturday, November 16, 2024 • Duration 41:09

Owen and Chris talk have resorted to the lowest levels of shillery and talk about Owen's new game, Sunshard:Embren, which is running a Kickstarter starting on November 19th. In all seriousness, if you liked Dark Age, it's worth giving this game a look.

Season 2 Episode 1: Riot Quest

Season 2 · Episode 1

Tuesday, July 9, 2024 • Duration 46:33

Riot Quest. Riot Quest. Riiiioootttttt Queeeesssstttt.

What more needs to be said?

Oh, I guess a little bit more! We're back, with a seasonal set of releases rather than appearing in pog form. Why? Beyond not having Privateer Press licensing off the majority of their IPs to Steamforged Games on our Keno cards, because we felt like it. Look forward to some episodes released in clusters as our time allows.

And remember, you can kill a wargame. You can't kill a podcast about dead wargames!

Episode 23: (Not Quite) Dead Podcast Society

Season 1 · Episode 23

Wednesday, May 25, 2022 • Duration 35:47

We're back!

Our intrepid hosts return after 9 months of solitude. Hear about Chris' visceral hatred of Chicago cuisine because a deep dish pizza went all Al Capone on his finger. Owen's pretty much the same. We're pretty sure that's not in the "pro" column of things.

Episode 22: We'll Be Right Back

Season 1 · Episode 22

Friday, August 13, 2021 • Duration 12:07

Owen needs to go out and get some smokes. He'll be right back...

Just kidding and in all seriousness, we're sorry to do this, but Chris and I have a lot of "life" stuff going on right now and need to press pause on the podcast for a few months so we can, collectively, get married, sell a house, and potentially move. We're planning on being back around Thanksgiving. In the mean time, come hang out with us at ArmourCon and CaptainCon, post pics of minis from your favorite dead game on our Facebook page, and/or come chat in our Discord. Thanks to all of you who have been listening thus far; we hope to be back on the digital airwaves soon!

In the grim past of Games Workshop's intellectual property, there is only (narrative) war(gaming).

Avid narrative wargamer and hobby legend Dave Taylor joins us again to talk about the Games Workshop game Inquisitor and the fan movement it sparked called "Inq28". If you've seen that term around wondered where it came from, this episode is for you.

Also, we talk about seafood. If you're Australian, prepare to get mad.

Season 1 · Episode 19

Friday, July 2, 2021 • Duration 35:34

"We can get this game picked back up; Blood Bowl did it!" is a refrain most players of dead games have heard before. But what did the Blood Bowl community do to get GW to pick the up after 7 years of no support? Nate Beem, president of the NAF (Blood Bowl tournament organization and very large Blood Bowl community) joins us to tell the story of how Blood Bowl became the most famous "resurrected" dead wargame and shares some tips on how other communities can move towards that.

Friday, June 18, 2021 • Duration 01:00:49

Did you know that AEG made a miniature wargame to go with the Legends of the Five Rings collective card game and RPG? Well, keep it on the down-low. We can't promote this episode too hard or we'll get sued by the Olympics.

Episode 17: Confrontation ft. Kyle Gibson

Season 1 · Episode 17

Friday, June 4, 2021 • Duration 01:10:07

The summer of Rackham continues with a discussion on one of our all-time favorite games, Confrontation. Kyle Gibson, moderator of the Confrontation 3.5 Fanatics Facebook group page and owner of Temple of the West studios, came by to help us give players unfamiliar with Confrontation a quick overview of the game. He also had some great insights into the potential future for Confrontation!

We'll probably talk about Conf more in the future, but we wanted to give listeners the basics of the game so they can decide if something they'd be interested in checking out.

Useful Links:

Temple of the West - Kyle's studio, which is putting out some great models (the Legends line) for Relic Blade. They'll also be dropping some inspired-by Confrontation models soon!
