    Episode 11: Historical...ish
    Aug 4 2025

    Calvin and Eric chat about the idea of Historical-ish games - games that, while not actually historical, have the right "vibe" to feel like they do. We discuss some games that fall in this category (cough Quar cough) and some that don't, even if initially they feel like they should.

    Feb 25 2025

    Calvin and Eric chat about how to plan a wargaming project - from defining your scope and really drilling down into what it is you want to do to preventing things from spiraling out of control. We talk about what to do, what not to do, and go through a worked example of Calvin's new War of the Roses project.
