Ep 253: Scott Wainwright (Brutality games & Let's Talk Tabletop Youtube Channel)

This week I talk to Alex of the Alex Paints Tiny Things Youtube channel. We have the usual rambly chat about his hobby history, likes, and highlights. We dig into a big of competitive painting, and a whole bunch of other stuff. I am pretty sure I mention it in the show, but I generalise Scottish people a little in the show, I just wanted to ensure that I mention that this is in jest, and I am totally and fully aware that you cant generalise people, it was just a lighthearted bit of banter. I dont think it was too savage, but I just thought I would throw it out there.  It was great fun talking to Alex, he was insightful and interesting and his video work makes for a positive learning experience.    PATM Discord Link: https://discord.gg/eHYTf4Z7t4

This week I talk to Stephen Baker the world renowned game designer. Stephen’s work includes but is not limited to Heroquest, Battle Masters, and Space Crusade. This is the first of….some podcasts Stephen and I will have.  I wanted to take the time to get to know him and really discuss things as opposed to rushing or just him feeling like we were superficially pumping him for click baity answers to questions that he has probably been asked a thousand times. So in this show we get to know him, his hobby history, and any interesting tid bits that popped up as we chatted. We end this show ready to discuss Heroquest and its genesis.  Thanks to Stephen for coming onto the show!  PATM Discord: https://discord.gg/eHYTf4Z7t4  

This week I talk to Chris from the Offbeat Builds Youtube channel. Chris creates videos of himself kitbashing Warhammer 40k models and his videos are slick and he is also a chipper and funny chap so his work is always good value. Chris came across as a really nice guy and I was very fortunate to be able to spend a while with him, I had a good few chuckles when I was listening back during the edit, I hope you enjoy listening to it also. Thanks Chris for coming onto the show, I hope we find common cause to chat again in the future. If you are into kitbashing, or want to be, go check Offbeat Builds out.  PATM Discord Link: https://discord.gg/eHYTf4Z7t4

This week I talk to Tom of Warriors Table Wargaming YouTube channel. Tom and accomplices put together a whole bunch of stuff for us to watch and listen to from The Walking Dead All Out War to Malifaux, and Moonstone, amongst others.  It was fun talking to Tom as he has very clear opinions and ideas about what he does and that made for an interesting conversation. I wont spoil any of the content here as you can follow along like you were there with us, but you may want to look up what a pie butty is, and also what pea wet is! Thanks to Tom for coming onto the show and for all the effort he goes to for the community. PATM Discord Link: https://discord.gg/eHYTf4Z7t4  

This week I talk to Ed about why he loves the tabletop skirmish game Space Weirdos. I love these shows, they are the purest form of our podcast. Ed didnt write the game, he’s not got anything to gain about selling it to you. He just loves is, and wants to share that with us, and thats amazing!!!! Thanks to Ed for taking the time to come onto the show, it was a pleasure to meet him and to speak to him. If you are a Space Weirdo then I hope you feel happy that your common love is getting some world attention. A little like Patrick Swazye in Dirty Dancing “No one puts Space Weirdos in the corner” Anyway listen to the chatter, we start out talking about Southern Softies and we go from there.  PATM Discord Link: https://discord.gg/eHYTf4Z7t4

This week I talk to Scott Wainwright, the creator of the Brutality rule sets, he also has a Youtube channel called Let’s Talk Tabletop. Let’s Talk Tabletop is a reflective and philosophic inquiry into our hobby and Brutality rule sets give you the ability to play lots of genres with a similar set of guiding principles. Its always great to talk to creative people about their mentalities and ethos’s and Scott was no exception. I wont ruin or spoil any of the chat here by signposting it, but we hope that you enjoy the show and I must thank Scott for coming onto the show and giving up an hour of his consciousness to chat with us.   PATM Discord Link: https://discord.gg/dAYXASPJ

This week I talk once more to Mr Roger Yates of the Duncan Rhodes Painting Academy. We spoke back in episode 230 so if you haven’t listened to that one you may want to as this is a continuation of that chat and we delve into what has been happening in recent times with the paint line, and also a lot of chat into the future. It was another fun chat with Roger and it was nice of him to give up another hour of his time to chat to us, thanks Rog.  I talk about it in the show but I exclusively use the Two Thin Coats range of paints now, and I wouldnt throw your current paints out the window to go and buy all 180 of their paints, but if you are in the market for a new red, or a new leather brown or what not, then give a couple of their paints a go. I painted all of my Baratheons with Two Thin Coats paints, you can check out the article on paintalltheminis.co.uk and see the results. I do a lot of yellow there so you can see how the paint deals with my mediocre talents! PATM Discord: https://discord.gg/dAYXASPJ

This week I talk once more to Ronnie Renton of Mantic Games. We chat about what Mantic have been up to recently and also what they are up to in the near future. We chat about The Walking Dead All Out War, Halo, Epic Warpath, and a bunch of other stuff.  Ronnie is just a great guy who is infectiously enthusiastic and positive about our hobby, and he works extremely hard. He is always going somewhere or doing something. Great guy. We hope you enjoy the show.
