In this episode Jonathan is joined by co-host Robert Dunn. Robert writes the show notes. He has been on the podcast before and travels with Jonathan to conventions.
Jonathan and Robert get into a very long talk about what they think about the multitude of eras available in our wargame hobby. They use the list that from the Wargaming, Soldiers and Strategy magazine’s Great Wargaming Survey 2023. The survey has been ongoing for about 10 years now. We do take a few liberties on how we organized some of the eras, but we talk about all of them; we did almost miss Pike and Shotte, but we caught it before the end. We recap our favorite eras and add the one era that we would add to our collection if we could. We would love to hear your favorite eras to play in and hope you reach out through social media or email.
Before we end we talk about our upcoming trip to Carnage 26 on October 27-29 at the Killington Grand Resort in Killington, Vermont, USA. Preregistration will be over by the time this podcast is live but you can still register onsite.
The Wargaming Recon crew will be doing a live recording on Saturday October 28 from 10am-11am in the Roundabout. Our topic is going to be figure (or miniature) agnostics rules. If you are at the convention come by the live recording or say “Hi” if you happen to see us around.
