John is a very thoughtful wargamer and his insights on rules and the approach to the hobby make this an very good way to spend a couple of hours. Sean is producing excellent content and is chalking up some notable scalps in terms of his guests and interviewees. If you haven't listened to these podcasts, why not? I have plans. I am dangerous when I have plans... |

One comment I would make about Johns podcast is his lack of a lead pile (well, being able to paint it in a day is pretty much the same). That works fine if you live in a country where you can order models and have them delivered a couple of days later. If you live on the other side of the world with lead times of 2-4 weeks it is essential to have a strategic lead reserve. |
God's Own Scale Episode 13 - John from Heretical Gaming Whirlwind 26th Aug 2020 02:54:40 I have had a slightly bigger lead pile when I lived abroad (about 6 weeks away for posting typically); but not that much bigger: realistically, how much painting was I going to get in? So I just had a rolling programme of when one batch arrived, then I would order the next batch, and that 6 weeks was the window to get the first lot done, with a few spare extras in case there were additional delays. The 'paint in a day thing' is very much 'if my life depended on it and I did absolutely nothing else'; that amount would probably be a ten days to a fortnight of normal painting time (maybe 20-30 minutes per day). |
