Summary

Okay kids, it's time for a good clean fight as we talk about our favorite skirmish games! This is the last episode we recorded before we all went into lockdown, so next month may be a little different...but we'll see how it goes. In the interim, stay safe, wash your hands, and try to get some games in (Tabletop Simulator is a lifesaver in times like these). We discover that the "father of science fiction" may also have been the father of miniature wargaming. (Here's a link to a nice article on this book.) We talk about a copyright controversy that wasn't really FASA's fault. PSA: Please don't confuse these Crunchberries with these Crunchberries. Mike just wants somebody to love the Tau, Brian just wants to talk about Malifaux, and Jayson just wants a giant, blue...  As always, we appreciate your listening and would love to hear your comments on any or all of these items, and especially a review on iTunes if you have the time and inclination!
