Fighting Sail - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 42

Two Shelves of Gaming ·

2025/09/01

This one is a podcast of opportunity.I had a gap in the holiday schedule to get something recorded which should act as a precursor to my eventual podcast about Avalon Hill's 'Wooden Ships and Iron Men'.Also it's to fill the gaps created by the current erratic recording and upload schedule. Life still a bit unsettled, but let's not dwell on that.Jumping the gun slightly on this one. Partly due to me bringing a Hornblower novel with me to Slovakia plus some posts on Facebook by like minded souls

Terence Stamp - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 41

2025/08/30

Just a very quick one today.To mark the passing of Terence Stamp I thought I say a few words given he appears on the thumbnail to this podcast channel.I felt it would be remiss if I didn't put something out there given I've been using his image for a few years. Plus of course he appears in one of the Star Wars films. Although I'm not sure if his image from said movie appears in the RPG book Wizards of the Coast put out around the time of the prequels.Well, it's a tenuous link to

2025/08/23

As promised a little video of the walk I sometimes do during my podcast recordings in Slovakia.Only a short film, and a bit jittery too despite my best efforts at controlling the shutter speed. Not sure why my Samsung camera renders the image like that, but it is what it is.A peaceful place that maybe belies all the bears, boars, deer and traumatized migrants I often fret about.Enjoy!

I'm Back! Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 40

2025/08/04

I'm Back!Greetings listeners and thanks for tuning in. It's been a while and it's been a long haul - literally. Since my last audio effort I've been driving back and forth between Switzerland and The Netherlands with our belongings, unpacking, assembling furniture and...well...you get the picture.As such I thought I'd record something before I go the way of many expired podcasts. I recorded this one on yet another walk along the Hungarian Slovak border, and while I was not set

Boxed In and Surrounded - Two Shelves of Gaming...

2025/04/18

Welcome listeners.Help! I'm surrounded. Surrounded by boxes that is. Today's episode comes from the Man Cave where this humble podcast began over four years ago. Yep, I'm back in Holland for a few days as part of my family's move from Switzerland back to the Netherlands. The last couple of days saw me renting a HUGE van / truck and moving all our household items out of storage and back into the family home.Of course, as part of this logistical operation, were lots of boxed containing my games.

Greetings one and all.Time for another podcast. But this time recorded against the backdrop of some big changes.In spite of the uncertain times I find myself in, I've been merrily crafting away bushes, trees and hills. Plus I've found the time for regular beach combing on the shores of Lake Geneva. Alas, all my efforts are destined to be placed in a box until the can be placed on the field of battle. Ashak Rise to be precise.Yet, the wargaming Gods do smile upon me and presented with a great

Hoarding 'v' Trimming the Fat - Two Shelves of Gaming...

Two Shelves of Gaming ·

2025/02/06

Welcome listeners and belated happy new year.For this first podcast of 2025 I thought I would outline my rough plans for trimming down the gaming paraphernalia into a more manageable pile. While driven by circumstances in my case, it's good practice and prevents an innocent and joy bringing hobby descending into the pits of obsessional hoarding. After all who wants to end up like Smaug? Also a few words about game books and how handy they can be when space is a premium. As if you didn't

Welcome to the Hobby Room - Two Shelves of Gaming...

Two Shelves of Gaming ·

2024/12/17

Time for another video!As alluded to in the previous episode, I thought I would take you on a tour - if that's the right word - of my bijou hobby space. There is barely enough room to swing a cat around, yet alone a camera, within the confined space of the apartment's store room. Yet this is the only viable space I can leave things left set up without fear of them being disturbed. And so I made it my own. They say necessity is the mother of invention. Amen to that.

2024/12/11

Greetings all and once again humble apologies for not getting to this sooner. Despite vowing to get a new podcast recorded and uploaded by the 18th of each month, I once more failed in that deadline due to the usual excuse of life getting in the way. Anyway, better late than never. This episodes has me recalling my Bond related experience earlier in the year . 'What's that got to do with gaming?' you ask? Well, it inspired me to get into the James Bond RPG which I - ahem *cough* - still haven't

Caverns and Wolves - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 33.5

2024/11/01

Caverns and Wolves? Sounds like a new and non-alliterated RPG.Nope, this is a short video about a couple of the items I picked up last week in Italy. Even though I've been aware of laser cut MDF gaming aids for some time, I'd never seen these before. Anyway, have a look and see what you think.

2024/10/31

Greeting all and thanks for tuning in. I'm a bit late with this episode as the last few weeks has been a blur of travel with a filming job in Germany, a flying visit to the UK and a family holiday in Italy. In spite of the carousel of Planes, Trains and Automobiles I managed to find and pursue my gaming urges in all territories visited (apart from Germany as I was wearing a gas mask, but that's another story) In the UK, despite drawing blank in all the charity shops I visited I did pick up

Aging and Gaming - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 32

Two Shelves of Gaming ·

2024/09/17

Hmm, bit of a different one for this episode as I try to articulate the slight challenges that may occur as we get older.This is in response to the slight change in my eye health a couple of years ago when I became a glasses wearer. Not the biggest thing to happen to someone over their life, but the way it's affected my painting, gaming and general hobbying has been noticeable. Alas, I'm not the first gamer to articulate this general subject. I'm following in the wake of Rob Salters,

Moss, Minis and Trees - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 31

Two Shelves of Gaming ·

2024/09/02

A quick little show and tell today.Thought I'd take my camera for a little test drive ahead of a filming job and make a little video of my moss preservation activities, two small pieces of area terrain plus some 'curious' minis. Also, shown is a potential gaming surface that was damaged in an unfortunate ironing accident. Such is life. Enjoy the video, enjoy the view and cover your ears when the jet goes past.

Small Footprint - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 30

2024/08/17

Greetings all!A bit late with this episode due to the busy summer schedule. Excuses, excuses! This episode's topic is coming from an article I recently got published in Issue 496 of Miniature Wargames. The theme is small footprint wargaming, or more specifically how to wargame if you've got limited space. Something I've found myself having to do since moving into a moderate sized apartment after living in a large house. I'm happy to say I'm not the only one and there's been

The Citadel of Chaos - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 29

Two Shelves of Gaming ·

2024/06/18

Time for some actual gaming!Yep, there comes a time in a gamer's existence when it's fine to talk the talk but even better to walk the walk. In other words I thought I would play one of the Fighting Fantasy books I picked up in Edinburgh and see if I could brave the perils of the Citadel armed only with steely determination a sword and spells. Turns out the book is rather more challenging that I remembered. This is probably in part due to the fact I was playing the game honestly. Basically

Back in Black - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 28

Howdy podviewers and welcome to another episode of the show. As you can see I’ve opted for another moving image contribution to highlight some of the goodies I picked up during my recent visit to Edinburgh. As per other video efforts this one taps out close to 10 minutes as this is the maximum record time for the camera I’m using – sure I could do something longer with my other video camera, but that’s a decent amount of time for a little show and tell video methinks. Following on from my previous

Hail King Theoden - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 27.5

2024/05/08

Just a quick one today. To mark the passing of an actor many of you will know from his role as King Theoden in The Two Towers and Return of the King, this mini podcast is a few words about Bernard Hill. While not exactly a gaming personality, there is a link as he features in an RPG released in conjunction with the films. 'The Lord of the Rings Role Playing Adventure game' was full of still images from the movie series and the boxed set I have is dedicated to the 2nd movie in which King

"It's Role Playing Jim, but not as we know it".Welcome to another episode of the podcast and thank you for dropping by. This one is inspired by another random event in my life. Not so long ago my wife purchase something online and was rewarded with a three month free subscription to Amazon Prime. As a result I watched all 3 seasons of 'Picard' and it made me realize that over my life, in spite of not being a huge Star Trek fan, I've always steadily consumed the films and

What’s in the Box? - Two Shelves of Gaming Episode 26

Two Shelves of Gaming ·

2024/03/18

Greetings listeners (and viewers),It's time for another podcast and this one is a little video. As mentioned in previous episodes I will occasionally be dipping into video occasionally and when I do it'll be something on the short side. Today I lift the lid - literally - on my paint collection. The reason? I was all ready to start a long overdue painting sessions a couple weekends ago, but disaster struck! My Abaddon Black had dried up. Not only did this mean I couldn't undercoat
