Len, Jon, and Mike are joined by Freehold Games' Brian Bucklew and Jason Grinblat to discuss Caves of Qud. In a world where rogue"lites" and rogue-adjacents have blown up, what is the niche of a true, traditional roguelike? We also dig into the procedural generation of its post-multiple-apocalypses world and dreamlike writing style.

Three Moves Ahead 622: Tactical Breach Wizards

Len and Rowan are joined by games writer Kris Lorischild to discuss Tactical Breach Wizards.

Metal Gear?!

We dig into the sources that are and aren't available for Bronze Age warfare, how the latest historical Total War feels now with all the bells and whistles, and whether or not Creative Assembly's grand apology tour might be a sign of things to come, or just a one-off PR move.

What gaming podcasts should be

Informed experienced strategy game fans talking about what they know. Unlike nearly every games podcast this isn’t the exact same discussion every week about the same 3 big budget games stating the same boring viewpoints over and over. These are genuine, informed, experienced fans and professionals discussing games they love in a genre they love. It’s detailed, interesting, and exactly what games podcasts should be.
Disappointing

It starts out well, until they reveal their crappy political agenda. Apparently, games with historical fictional settings are not allowed to portray slavery. It must be fun living in denial of historical facts...
Great gamer podcast

I’ve been a fan of Rob Zacny and his reviews and opinions of strategy games for years, in print and other podcasts. Although he isn’t on every cast the crew, Len/Ian/Rowan, are doing an excellent job. I’ve only recently rediscovered my love of RTS and strategy games and I’ve been binging on older episodes. Highly recommend this cast
I don't even like strat games that much

But I can't really find insightful game podcasts other than this and they sometimes cover stuff I care about.
