On top of that, special guest Kenny from the Combat Phase Podcast and Dustin are in studio and help the hosts elaborate on not only Game Hole Con but also dig into the mechanics and structure of mega battles.

In episode 41 there is plenty to talk about as our hosts catch up on another long break between recording sessions with plenty of events and gaming going on. Hobby projects are talked about and like usual, Conesy’s couldn’t sit on one army project for long so find out what’s new that he’s been working on.
In other news, the Dark Elves which were just released before recording are talked about with all of the new kits that came out at launch and the cool models and some early thoughts about the list are covered. We try not to cover the new books this much when they first come out because there are plenty of other shows that do this all at the same time but if you like us to do this for other books, please let us know. Conesy couldn’t contain himself in this episode.
Finally we catch up on our progress after another day of hobby and terrain projects is in the books.

In episode 40 our hosts are finally able to get back to more of our standard format with special guest and original host Paul Wagner in the studio. On top of that, we talk about the new Lizardmen in our Cheesecurd segment and for our main topic we discuss techniques that you might be able to employ to find time, or at least to make time, when your constantly busy and you just don’t feel like you have enough of it.
We also have an Awesome Models you might have missed where we talk about Scibor Miniatures, and in particular their dwarf range. You can check out Scibor Miniatures and see for yourself why Conesy is so high on these models.

This is our second episode in our How to make terrain series. Conesy goes into describing steps to make a forest stand. Don’t worry, there is a lot more here then just talking about cutting a board and putting some flock on it! While a fairly basic project at face value, this video takes you more into the little details that help take your terrain piece from just a basic piece to something that really starts to pop and come to life on the wargame table.
