Yarkshire Gamers Reet Big Wargames Podcast

Yarkshire Gamer

A wargaming Podcast covering that modern day rarity, The Big Game. No 10 figures a side on a 3ft square table here old chap. All scales, all periods, so long as its BIG. You know what they say ”Go Big or Go Home” We, my friends have gone Big ! Each episode will look at a different aspect of the Big Wargame and do a little bit to bring them back into fashion. Is it a coincidence that Warlord games bring an Epic scale box set out just after this podcast went to air ! I don’t think so, so get on

2022/01/21

Welcome back and a Happy New Year to you all. The first episode of 2022 features the two original members of the Plastic Crack Podcast, a live Monday Night stream of general gaming chat which is growing and growing in popularity. Starting in March 2020 with my guests the show has featured a number of Hobby Glitterati as guests but is probably best known in its current format as 4 gamers chewing the fat over the most important and quite often least important topics in the hobby. The show features all

Its Christmas Time, there's no need to be afraid, or maybe there is as Brews in the Binyard returns for a Xmas Special. Sadly there is just me and Alex as the third 6 from the unholy trinity Sean Clark couldn't make the recording. Its a typical end of year episode with a review of 2021 and a look forward to 2022, as usual there are 14 swear words in the episode so please don't play aloud near children or nervous goldfish. Which is better, Worcestershire Sauce or Henderson Relish, Yazoo or The Flying

Episode 17 - Jason Weiser - Military Miniature Magazine

Yarkshire Gamers Reet Big Wargames Podcast ·

2021/11/12

Back to the usual single guest format for this episode and I am very pleased to be speaking with Jason Weiser who is the Editor in Chief of a new, yes I said NEW Wargames Magazine, based in the USA. As usual I speak to Jason about his own Wargames story in the first part of the Episode, before moving onto our usual Big Game Chat. Then after Sean and Alex tried to destroy the Yarkshire Gamer Quiz in the last episode we get into further problems with translation and somehow manage to upset the State

Episode 16 - Wargames Room 101 with Alex and Sean

2021/10/23

Here we go with Part 2 of the Brews in the Binyard Episode. PARENTAL GUIDANCE - This Podcast contains at least 14 naughty words. If you missed Episode 15 I was talking to Alex Sotheran of Storm of Steel and Sean Clark of Gods own Scale, it took us nearly 2 hours to get to the end of what is normally the first section of what is normally my first section of the Podcast, so a strategic decision was made to cut the recording in half and present it in two separate episodes. So we start where we left off

Episode 15 - Brews in the Bin Yard with Alex and Sean...

Yarkshire Gamers Reet Big Wargames Podcast ·

2021/10/08

I want you to think of this as more like a Magazine Episode, obviously not Hello Magazine, more like Hey Up, Love. I've gathered together my own little Wargaming "Supergroup" and managed to persuade the Giant of the Utubes Alex "Storm of Steel" Sotheran and the Podcast Legend Sean "God's Own Scale" Clark to appear together in this episode. We chatted for that long (nearly 4 hours) that I have had to split the recording into two parts, the first half would be the introduction section in the normal

Yarkshire Gamers Reet Big Wargames Podcast ·

2021/09/18

I'm back to the normal format with this Episode when I talk to another stalwart of the North East Wargames Scene, Robbie Roddis. My guest has been gaming for most of his life and will be well known to many on the show circuit by the wonderful display games he and his gaming chum John Reidy used to put on. Robbie has a number of different websites but it was his love of the Borgias and his site dedicated to building his Cesare Army that inspired me to get into the Italian Wars and I think we all know

Episode 13 - A Grand Old Catch Up

Yarkshire Gamers Reet Big Wargames Podcast ·

2021/08/27

Not wanting to lumber a single guest with Episode 13 I decided it was time to introduce a new, occasional format for the show, The Catch Up. One thing I noticed with other Podcasts I listen to is that, a guest comes on and announces a game or a new range of figures or an event and that's it you never hear from them again ! I thought it would be interesting to "catch up" with old guests and see how something they spoke about on their Episode went. Such a chat probably wouldn't need a full episode so

Episode 12 - David Marshal - TM Terrain

Yarkshire Gamers Reet Big Wargames Podcast ·

2021/08/14

This episode sees us return to Gods Own County after a trip round the world in the last episodes. Todays guest is David Marshall who runs the company TM Terrain. He is an outstanding terrain maker and very kindly gave up his time to chat about how he got interested in the terrain aspect of our hobby as well as talking about his techniques and methods. We had a cheeky idea to visit Games Workshop, buy the smallest thing in the store and then when asked what we were into, we would reply with the most

Episode 11 sees me refueling the Yarkshire Airlines Pigeon and going Hey Up and Away to Adelaide Australia to talk with Steve Wold. Better known by many as Old Wargamer from the Twitters, Stephen was one of the first wargaming trailblazers on that social media format and his following today is over 6,000. We cover many topics during the two hours we chatted, from the Wargames Scene in Australia to the Yarkshire Gamer Quiz. We even find time to talk about Contrast Paints, yes those things, as well as

Yarkshire Gamers Reet Big Wargames Podcast ·

2021/07/09

Episode 10 sees me one again, crossing time zones and continents as we tick off Kentucky USA from our World Tour of Wargaming. I had to name this episode as a homage to the Knife quote in the first Crocodile Dundee film, if you think you are a big gamer or you think I am mad saying a 6ft table is a small table then the games John does might just change your perspective. We chat and cover many topics as usual, including some you might not be expecting, US Heathcare and the boring nature of the names

Episode 9 is my first face to face interview with a guest, everything being previously done on Zoom. Peter Morbey has been running Elite Miniatures since 1985, the company is still going strong constantly producing new figures and expanding the existing ranges of miniatures. I was very kindly invited across to Elite HQ (still in Yarkshire) and using my new Zoom H1n Voice Recorder had had a chat and a brew with Pete about all things Big Game. If you haven't seen Elites ranges before make sure you pop

Episode 8 sees me going a long way south of Sheffield, in fact we've gone as far as Cape Town in South Africa. Simon Hall is a self confessed Big Gamer who also has had a very successful time writing rules, initially as one of the team on Fields of Glory before more recently publishing his own set of Ancient / Medieval rules Mortem at Gloriam. Over the course of the show we cover many topics, Simon admits to owning over 60,000 figures and claims not to me mostly a collector on the Venn Diagram of

The John Lennon to Rich Clarkes Paul McCartney, the slayer of Black Puddings and Judger of Breakfasts, the one and only Nick Skinner. In between talking about Cricket and Avocados we did manage to occasionally discuss wargaming. Nick does a great effort at the 4 minute challenge, we chat about his entry into rule writing and his thoughts on the big game. After a dip

Welcome to the first episode of the second season, not a lot has changed to be honest, its the same mix of Wargames chat and fun with the emphasis on the Big Game. Todays guest is Fraser the You Tube star of the channel Von Ketteringham, his channel is one of the foremost in the gaming hobby and is a mix of tutorials, army showcases and general hobby chat.

In this Episode I talk to the owner of The Wargames Holiday Centre, Mark Freeth. Originally started in Gods Own County by Legend of the hobby Peter Gilder, the WHC stayed in Yorkshire for many years until it moved somewhere south of Sheffield. I catch up with Mark on the history of the centre and how it has thrived in its new home near Basingstoke. With in excess of 40,000 mainly 28mm figures the games are a joy to behold and the Centre gives everyone the opportunity to play in a BIG GAME. A great

Today my guest is Dr Chris Brown, author, historian and of course Wargamer. Chris is an expert in Scottish Medieval History and the Arnhem Campaign of WW2 and has many books in print on both subjects. We covered many topics and it was fascinating to hear a Historians perspective on our hobby. Not afraid to speak his mind his review of the film Braveheart during the Podcast is worth the entry fee alone ! Chris runs two Facebook pages one, S.P.I.T (Stupid Projects in 28mm) covering the Big Games he
