Rebels & Patriots – Wargaming Recon #244

Jonathan and Adrian are together to review Rebels & Patriots & Song of Drums and Tomahawks, thoughts on hobby hoarding, feature another Lumber Mill segment, provide a Kickstarter update, reveal upcoming guests, and ponder why the Purple Shirted Eye Stabber isn’t more prevalent in gaming.

 

LUMBER MILL

Sponsored by Things from the Basement

The  Lumber  Mill  focuses  on Things from the Basement’s Vertical Tanks from their Industrial line of kits.

When you buy this kit, make sure to get the small soda cans from your local grocery store.  This kit will NOT work with standard size cans.  We also highly recommend using Rust-Oleum Painter’s Touch 2X Aluminum Metallic spray paint to paint the soda cans and the circular MDF piece that goes on top of the cans.

Most DIY stores will carry this.  There should also be a similar type product by Krylon.  That is another great brand, but Rust-Oleum is easier for us to get.

 

We’re a project Kickstarter loves and we fully funded in under 3 days.  We will use the money to make the 2020 season really amazing.  We are now working to unlock exciting Stretch Goals.

With the Kickstarter now underway Jonathan goes into detail about the extra backer levels that have been added. We are $170 away from unlocking our first stretch goal, and $670 away from our 2nd.  The first will let us produce a full season.  The second allows us to add another con to our schedule.

Please back the Kickstarter.

The Kickstarter ends 8am EST on February 19, 2020.

Upcoming Guests:

As part of the 2020 season we’ve arranged some extra interesting guests to help us cover some of the bigger topics…

Dr. Allan G. Hunter – counselor, PhD from Oxford to discuss mental health benefits of tabletop gaming.

Gordon Firemark esq. – to discuss copyright law, trademark law and intellectual property laws as they pertain to recasting in the hobby industry.
