Sat, 2 August 2008 In this mega-super-sized episode (3 1/2+ hours!), Jason and Scott cover all those things they need to before heading off to WBC. They respond to some feedback (and offer some tactical advice), discuss their recent gaming (including Pseudocon), and discuss their respective WBC schedules. Jason interviews Alan Emrich, a legend in wargame design, about his history in gaming, Victory Point Games, his teaching, and his history in computer gaming. Then Moritz lays down a call to all wargame designers and Jason and Scott weigh in. What's NOT in this show??? The only thing they don't do is fit their show in its normal 2 hour time frame!

Great episode! The interview with Emrich was fantastic. I'd love to be a student in his classes. I hope you can have him on again to talk more specifically about how and what he is teaching.
The discussion started by Moritz is an interesting one and as a relative newcomer to wargaming, I am interested to hear more discussion about it and the current state and future of wargaming.
I would suggest, maybe, moving the feedback portion of the podcast to the end of the show rather than the beginning. And I'm am more interested in hearing about different games, mechanics, systems, etc. than I am about exactly what games you are playing currently.
Thanks!
