UNLUCKY FROG GAMING

No jokey name for the episode this week as the main point of discussion is a recent incident where a participant of a Warhammer 40,000 tournament was wearing Nazi symbology.

Since we recorded the episode Games Workshop have issued a formal statement on their stance regarding hate groups. We will talk about this in next weeks episode, but I thought it was still worth providing the link to their statement, along with the article from Spikey Bits that Tom was referring to in the episode.

If you wish to skip straight to the discussion it starts at 15:07.
