Episode 2: Lone Battles, Cold Ruins, Bad Choices

This week on the Paul and Wayne Show, hosts Paul and Wayne dive into the rise of solo wargaming in Tales from the Tavern, discussing systems like Five Leagues From the Borderlands, Warriors of Athena and why solo campaigns and random tables are gaining popularity. In the Lore Lounge they explore Frostgrave: the frozen ruin of Felstead, its catastrophic magical winter, the thaw revealing vaults, undead and arcane treasures, and the narrative possibilities for warbands, wizards and modular table layouts. The D&D Diaries recount a tense session of Curse of Strahd’s Death House, the party uncovers a haunted attic, faces a vengeful nursemaid spectre and rescues Throm before they descend into the house’s cold, chanting depths. On the Hobby Desk Paul and Wayne talk painting and projects: Orcs & Goblins for Oathmark, undead skeletons, commission work and fast painting techniques (washes, drybrushing, contrast and layering), plus where to find their content on UG Hobby channels.
