This Week’s Tabletop Podcast Reviews 5/21-5/27
Hey all, Bahkara here for another week of reviews!
This week we are seeing a lot of talk about Death From the Skies and more Warmachine Mark 3 talk. So let’s get on with the reviews!
Combat Phase Episode 146 – This week they interview author Guy Hayley again. Although last time they talked in general terms, this week they focus more on his latest book for The Beast Arises series, Throneworld. Again, they discuss the work that goes into the writing of the book and it’s relation to the other books in the series. If you are interested in the author, subject matter or the whole series, then this episode is worth a listen.
Forge the Narrative Episode 147 – This week they have Reece and Frankie from Frontline Gaming on to discuss the potential effects the new GW FAQ may have on the game once they go final. It’s an interesting conversation as you have a couple of people that have a large influence on the competitive side of the hobby. Even if you don’t play, or like, the ITC, it is a good listen to hear their reasoning behind some of the rulings that had been made in the ITC and to get their initial thoughts on how it will affect them.
Life After the Cover Save Episode 177 – The duo have a talk with Carl, from the Independent Characters, about their recent trip to the UK, Salute and Warhammer World. An interesting note, to me, was that at one point both Blake and Ed discuss their current lack of enthusiasm for 40K and the resulting shift of focus that this has caused. Burn out happens to everyone at some point and you can sometimes hear it, or not, in their most recent episodes. That’s not necessarily a bad thing as they still seem excited to be playing other miniature games. I’m curious where this new direction leads.
NGC40K Episode 18 – This episode concludes their coverage of the Shield of Baal Campaign. Nice overall coverage with an extended episode of their audio drama this week.
Signals from the Frontline – Always a good listen for new and rumors on 40K and other miniature games in the industry.
