Ladies and gentlemen, it's Raef "Hollywood" Granger!

Yep, Raef joins us in the third chair and we get to talk about the games we're playing and enjoying.  Up first we discuss the "State of Miniature Gaming" as we see it, colored by our local scene.  Which games are sticking and why?

Later Raef and Russ discuss storytelling in video games.  Seems like there have been some great examples this year, and we dive into the techniques we like and make us feel part of the game.

And the Hollywood Miniute is back!

Mack Martin, who is now one of the big brains at Wyrd Miniatures working on the new version of Malifaux, joins us in the third chair this time!
Since Mack is working on the Malifaux rules update, we thought we'd pick his brain.  What are they doing? Why are they doing it? When will it be ready?  Does my stuff get nurfed?
And later Craig, Russ, and Mack dive into the Iron Kingdoms RPG. In this detailed review they cover everything from character creation to combat mechanics.   Stay focused and you'll learn everything you need to know to decide if this RPG is something you should check out.

Colby Dauch, of Plaid Hat Games, joins us in the third chair this time!

Up first Craig and Russ have all kinds of questions to ask Colby about what it's like getting a big game license, and Bioshock Infinite certainly is a big license.  Colby tells us how Plaid Hat got the deal and gives us a preview of the upcoming board game Bioshock Infinite: The Seige of Columbia.

Later Craig and Russ review the egyptian themed game Kemet.  Does the gameplay match the amazing component quality?

We're very excited to have Eric Summerer, of the Dice Tower Podcast, sitting in the third chair.  

Since Eric is a professional voice actor, we take the opportunity to grill him on what his profession is like and how does one go about recording an epic sci-fi audio book?

Later the three dive into a detailed review of Mice and Mystics.  A great family dungeon crawler that gamers of any age will enjoy.
