Lead Pursuit Podcast

If you haven’t seen the Crimson Skies table from Skirmishers Guild around the interwebs, you must be living under a rock! But that game board is about more than just looking pretty, it is at the heart of a gaming crossover. Steffan, the brains behind Skirmishers Guild, has been using a modified set of Gaslands rules to play out his Crimson Skies-themed dogfights and the team talks to him about how and why he created this crossover

You’re right, you caught us playing something OTHER than aerial wargames! This week we talk to the designer of Outside the Wire, a squad-level TTRPG set in the frame of modern counter-insurgency operations. Even if roleplaying isn’t “your thing” you ought to give this episode a listen, simply to hear what an absolute TTRPG dork Doug is. But you long time listeners probably already knew that by now! (We’re pretty sure he’s going to steal some of these ideas for his Taxila Coil campaign…)

You can go back Outside the Wire on Kickstarter at:

Blood Red Skies is dead? Wait, nobody told the Lead Pursuit Podcast! Seriously though, the guys all talk about the long, slow slide that BRS has been on for the last few years. But more importantly they talk about what the future likely holds for BRS and Lead Pursuit in an era where Warlord Games walks away from the license.

Look, we know this episode will offend half of you, and the other half will ask blindly “what is the big deal”. Nothing polarizes people more than a discussion of AI these days - and we expect no less. But if you can put your personal feelings aside and listen to what one man is doing in the Gaming space with AI, you just might find yourself hating it a little less. (Okay, who are we kidding, you’re all going to cancel us after this episode!)

And yes, the thumbnail was AI generated, did you really think Doug looks that good in person?

Why does it seem that every time our LPP team gets ready to enjoy an upcoming event, some Grognard, Gatekeeper, or Gadfly just has to stir up the negativity around the event? Doug and Steve explore some of the biggest complaints around Historicon and bat them down like flies at a 4th of July picnic.
