Two interviews and a game in this episode. Here's links to things mentioned this time around...

• GMT is changing their shipment schedule
• Mar Herman's Wargames According to Mark
• GMT December newsletter with pricing news
• Armchair Dragoons Digital Convention: ACDC

***A quick note about the live show. After recording was finished, I found out that the popular Chits show with Ardwulf and Dan was moving from Tuesday, to possibly Thursday. As many listeners may be interested in both shows, I may need to decide on a different time slot than Thursday. I'll let you know via the Event newsletter, the website, Bluesky, and Twitter when I have it settled.***
