About this episode
The episode discusses competitive gaming strategies in miniatures games, featuring a battle report and analysis of a unique list.
Welcome to Joshing Around in Eä! We're just three mates taking a while to get onto drinking grappa...again...and chatting about Conquest... This episode, we procrastinate by talking smack about our professional nemeses, before going all creative about miniatures games that are DEFINITELY NOT Conquest, and to be honest don't exist and most likely never will. But there's always hope! We also go into a battle report and analysis of a sweaty Hundred Kingdoms list facing off against a Spires list containing literally only two regiments. If you want an excuse to always get the advantage for having fewer cards, after listening to this you'll have the exact how-to for precisely that. You'll honestly never look back. As always, thank you ever so much for being a fantastic listener to our podcast. If you have any questions you'd like us to wrestle with, or if you have a drink to contribute that we can audibly enjoy, please do get in touch at joshingaroundinea@gmail.com.
