News #56 - X-Wing and Star Wars Armada - CANCELLED. What is going on at Asmodee?

Episode 83

mercredi 10 juillet 2024 • Duration 18:53

It's time for another deep dive on another member of the world's wargaming scene: Asmodee. And this time, the money get really big.

X-Wing and Star Wars Armada are toast, but why? Who are Asmodee? Where did their money come from and what's going on there that has led to these headline properties being dropped?

News #55 - Steamforged Games Buys Warmachine!!

Episode 82

vendredi 7 juin 2024 • Duration 27:32

Yes, Steamforged Games has bought Warmachine from Privateer Press. I take a look at the context, the background and history of Steamforged Games and what it might all mean for Warmachine and miniatures wargaming in general.

Design #23 - 3D Printing (Part 2) - How it will affect everyone else

Episode 73

lundi 18 octobre 2021 • Duration 25:58

I talked, two weeks ago, about how 3D printing would affect Games Workshop - TL;DR, they'll need to make changes to their business model eventually, but not in a way that will stop them being profitable. This week, then, I'm turning to the rest of the industry and trying to explain why small manufacturers, designers, artists and consumers need to be aware of the coming change and how it will impact them far more substantively than it will the Big Names.

Precinct Omega Podcast - News #49 - Another One Bites The Dust 1947

Episode 72

lundi 11 octobre 2021 • Duration 48:13

Paolo Parente announced last week that Dust Studio, the company behind Dust 1947 and related games is winding up. In this episode I take a look at the history of Dust as a gaming IP, its influence and shifting fortunes and why I think it's ultimately failed. Other related games: AT-43 Konflikt 47 Clockwork Goblin

Precinct Omega Podcast - Design #22 - 3D Printing (Pt 1) - What does it mean for Games Workshop?

Episode 71

lundi 4 octobre 2021 • Duration 36:43

I recently read/watched/listened to a few social media commentator types (a lot like me) who all seemed to be of one mind that 3D printing wasn't a problem for GW. I very much disagree. Sort of. In the first of a two-parter, I take a look at how 3D printing may affect GW's business model and why, look at why people think it "isn't a problem" and why they're wrong, and what GW could and should do to adapt their business model to 3D printing. In the second part, I'll look at the wider world of miniatures wargaming, where the impact is, I suspect, going to felt much more keenly.

Precinct Omega Podcast - News #48 - Sci-fi Skirmishes

Episode 70

lundi 27 septembre 2021 • Duration 14:45

Deadzone 3rd edition appears, as if from nowhere! What's going on and is this genius or a horrible misstep by Mantic? Meanwhile, other microenterprises are releasing cool stuff! Killwager from Enemy Spotted Studios is on Kickstarter, whilst Eisenfront has released its first 2-player starter boxed set. What does all of this mean for Precinct Omega? Well, it looks like I'm putting out a new game, myself, which you'll find available here. Patrons should look for their discount codes, coming soon! But it also reflects back on the fact that I'm going to have to take a slightly different approach for a while and that will mean putting my tie back on and hitting the office for some short-term HR contracts. The podcast isn't going anywhere, though, so watch this space for more!

Precinct Omega Podcast - Design #21 - Editions

Episode 69

lundi 20 septembre 2021 • Duration 51:01

All miniatures wargames seem to go through multiple editions, one way or another, but why? Why are new editions of miniatures games so different to new editions of other games and/or books? Why do we get so many, so often? Is it bad for the community or bad for the hobby? How often is *too* often for a new edition? I try to answer these and other questions in this week's episode of the podcast.

Precinct Omega Podcast - News #47 - In and Out

Episode 68

lundi 13 septembre 2021 • Duration 23:06

In this business, companies enter the market and companies leave it with a depressing regularity. But what motivates them to start and what leads to their departures? With the news that Impudent Mortal is back, IDW Games is gone and Freebooter's Fate is, astonishingly, still here, I dig into this question in a little more detail and ask what it means for Precinct Omega.

Precinct Omega Podcast - Design #20 - An Interview with Ivan Sorensen

Episode 67

lundi 6 septembre 2021 • Duration 01:01:01

So, earlier this week I accidentally deleted, just... hundreds of files. OK, so technically I had intended to delete the vast majority of them, but a mis-click ended up with me basically deleting my entire archive of podcasts and videos. For most purposes, no biggie. They're all uploaded to the Interwebz if I need them and, to be honest, I mostly don't. However, I kept them around because it makes it easier to copy and paste elements from earlier shows into later ones, like intros and suchlike. Yeah, well... those were some of the things I managed to delete. But part of the challenge of running a business is taking setbacks and turning them to one's advantage. So I spent a large chunk of a day this week creating brand new intros for podcasts and videos, so you get a brand new intro and outro from Bernard, with awesome brand new music and - to top it off - an whole hour-long interview with Five Parsecs from Home author, Ivan Sorensen. (And, for the record, it's EE-van, technically; but since he moved to the US he answers to EYE-van as well.)

Precinct Omega Podcast - News #46 - The Exaggerated Demise of Guild Ball and Other Stories

Episode 66

lundi 30 août 2021 • Duration 28:22

In this episode, I revisit the apparent demise of Guild Ball. No, really, it's dead. But only... kind of dead? Stuff happened. I talk about it. Also, Secret Weapon Miniatures is dead. Probably. Again, kind of. I talk about that. And Asmodee. Definitely not dead, but responsible for other things maybe kind of dying. But not really. Let's talk about that!
