Episode 99: Battle Card Review + Meet The Lads of “War With a Mate”
Drink of the Week (1:53)
A buddy stopped by on a road trip and left me a bottle of Kansas City Whiskey from West Bottoms Whiskey Co. I hit it a few nights ago and it hit back and now we’re friends.
Games of the Week (5:39)
• I’m through the first two of the six maps in Postmark Games’ Battle Card, which turns WWII strategy dilemmas into accessible puzzles for a casual player and a fun diversion for hex-and-counter fans.
• An excerpt from my chat with James and Andy of War With a Mate, a podcast that documents their cold start up wargaming’s most fabled peak: SPI’s monster, The Campaign for North Africa: The Desert War 1940-43.
Track of the Week (35:50)
Bring back the megamix: Namely “Megamix ‘88,” from Mantronix’s 1988 LP, In Full Effect. (I kept citing ‘87 on the segment, but that was wrong.)
May I Send You a Custom Cocktail Booklet Full of Bad Ideas + A Frog That Warns Against Such Things?
Support the show with a one-time $10 pitch-in and I’ll send you cool stuff in the mail. (There’s also an option to pick something from my vintage ‘80s comic book box, peep the details.)
