This week the boys pull from some VERY recent person experiences to discuss why it's so friggin difficult to learn a new edition of a game you already play. If you yourself have had thoughts like, "How far away do I score an objective, 3 inches or 6? How do secondaries work? Heavy weapons give a minus one to shoot...except when they don't? What the hell's a command phase?" Then this episode is for you. So kick on back, relax, grab a cool drink, and prepare to share in our small brain frustration on another episode of Kentucky Fried Wargaming.  Wanna vent about how hard it is to make your brain adjust to a new addition?
