Episode #26: An Ancient Wargame that Feels Appropriate: An Interview with Author Mark Backhouse (Strength and Honour)

from 20 Sided Gamified Podcast

Please enjoy the conversation I had with Mark Backhouse, author of "Strength and Honour". To me, this is one of my favorite ancient wargames, and one that has the FEEL of the kinds of battles described by authors like Polybius, Tacitus, and Livy. This is in stark contrast with other rulesets focused more on tournament play, list building, min-maxing, etc. Mark is a school teacher like myself, and we hit it off pretty quickly. The talk was informative, interesting, and I hope you get something out of it. Have a great weekend all! Get some gaming in! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
