Our question of the month in March was, "What's the coolest bit of terrain you've ever made?". On this episode we'll hear the many great answers, as well as reveal the QotM for April. I also talk about a solo/coop ruleset I've been working on, and the knee-jerk decision to buy and play Blood Bowl!

Dan of Paint All The Minis returns for a hobby chat about various things, including what we're playing, how much we're playing, and keeping up with the hobby in general.

Ronnie Renton, the founder of Mantic Games, joins the podcast to discuss the world of tabletop miniatures, game design, and the company’s evolution.

Ronnie shares his journey from working at Games Workshop to starting his own company, his thoughts on the state of the hobby, and how Mantic has carved its own niche with games like Kings of War, Dungeon Saga, and their latest licensed projects, including Halo.

We discuss the challenges of creating accessible wargames, the importance of growing the hobby, and how Mantic is embracing new technologies like 3D printing. Plus, Ronnie teases some exciting upcoming releases!

I'm joined by Casey, writer of the cult classic Space Weirdos. We talk about the game's origins, its popularity, and a few of his other titles.

What were your last three hobby purchases? That was our question of the month in February, and the response was great.

Our question of the month for March is to tell us about a terrain piece you built that you're particularly proud of. Here's where and how to submit!

Michael Lovejoy is co-creator of the cult anthropomorphic animal skirmish game Burrows & Badgers. On this episode, he joins me for a chat about the history of the game and miniature range, running a company in the hobby, and the upcoming second edition. Also mentioned was this written interview with Michael on Goonhammer.com.

I'm joined by Curtis of Ramshackle Games, who talks about an eventful couple of weeks at the venerable indie miniature company!

On the latest episode of the podcast, Glenn Ford and Mike Hutchinson discuss their new book, The Fundamentals of Tabletop Miniatures Game Design: A Designer’s Handbook.

The pair need little introduction in our corner of the hobby, and their show, The Rule of Carnage, was frequently mentioned in our episode last year about the best hobby content channels on the web.

Mike was also on the show last year, talking about some of his games, including Gaslands, A Billion Suns, Chess 28, and Hobgoblin. The latter is one that I recently got hold of and played for the first time, too – it’s a cracker.

Our question of the month throughout January 2025 was for you to tell us about your named characters and their (mis)adventures on the tabletop. As always, we got a great mix of answers, and it was a pleasure to hear all of these fun anecdotes.

The tabletop miniature hobby has no shortage of sub-hobbies, most popular of which are collecting, painting, and gaming. Less discussed but no less important is the artwork that forms the backdrop of the worlds we play in. In this episode, we talk about art and its delivery in analogue formats such as coffee table books and magazines.
