Many of our steady readers may be aware of a great new game called that many of our NDNG staff helped play test. The first wave of the game came with the big battlewagons of the dreadnought era and now the game includes the light cruisers which played a major role in the war doing everything from commerce raiding, blockade operations and scouting for the main battle fleet.
The light cruisers were part of our original play test and we loved playing these fast ships with their deadly torpedoes. Game wise they add so much to the flavor of the game and I feel gamers will love this addition to the game.
Once again we sit down with Mike Tunez, to talk about solo play, upcoming releases (Raise the Black!) and what we’ve been painting in quarantine.
Like many of you I am under lockdown and I am itching for some gaming relief, well the good people at have finally released a PC port of their iconic board war game Lock and Load called . This project is one I was following for a while since it seems to been in development for a long time and now it is in early-release and has been giving me hours of fun while at home.
Ed and Tom practice Social Distancing and hit the air-waves from separate locations for a “locked-down” installment of No Dice No Glory’s BattleVault podcast.
Now that has hit the streets many gamers are starting to learn the mechanics of the game, they are trying to figure out what armies they will play in the game. While gamers have a lot of armies to choose from the basic composition of the forces in the game and the basic capabilities they possess are very balanced. This article will go over how to build a list that fits your personal playing style and maybe win a game or two.
Glenn, Tom and Tyler are joined by new hire Sean to discuss Cold War’s upcoming events and what they’ve been up to.
Mark Walker from Flying Pig games joins us again to talk about his recent Kickstarter project, Le Resistance and other games he has been working on.

My first army for was a Canadian infantry list. I swore at the time it would be my only army. My Bronze-Green Canucks were soon joined by Germans and many other lists but my love of playing Commonwealth armies has never abated. As Late War started to go under the V4 treatment I eagerly awaited the first dedicated British book and the new British D-Day book that will be released in March has a lot to be excited about. Airborne, Commandos, Canadians, Cromwells and multiple versions of the Churchill will no longer collect dust and now see a table and based on my first impressions of the book they should be a competitive and fun force to play.

Many of you know that I am a huge fan of Great War gaming, and this month we have some great new games being released or in the works that gamers should take note of.
I find the history of the Great War fascinating and I have always wondered why it is not more popular and prominent in our hobby. I think some of these new games may change some minds over the next few months.
