I’m stunned and terribly saddened to hear of the passing of longtime listener Andrew. He helped to give the show the name Wargaming Recon. Andrew was a kind soul who selflessly gave of himself to help those around him. Despite being legally blind he taught children how to wargame.
Wargaming Recon has lost a good friend in his passing. I ask all listeners to join me in a moment of silence in Andrew’s honor.

PATREON
Patreon backers get newest episodes FIRST
Changes are coming January 2016! Patreon backers will support the show on a monthly basis instead of per episode. It should work out the some financially. This new method is more transparent and easier for all when budgeting.
As a thank you to those backing the show on Patreon I will be releasing episodes to them before anyone else can get the episode.
Don’t want to wait? Why not support Wargaming Recon through our Patreon. It costs just $1 per episode roughly $2 per month. That is less than a cup of coffee.
Thank you to:
