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 board the Big Game Train and let’s ride it down a 30 foot table.

Episode 85 - Summer Brews in the Binyard 26

Hi all,
Its been a while since the last podcast but I couldn't miss a Summer Brews in the Binyard !
I'm joined by Alex Sotheran from Storm of Steel and Iain Mcdonald of Flags of War for our half yearly loo at the Wargaming World.
WARNING - This podcast contains naughty words and jokes about Wargaming, if you are of a nervous disposition I would turn off this podcast and go and do something more interesting instead !
We start the show with our usual catch up, a chat about Salute (Alex mentioned the award, not me) and Partizan before discussing if too much terrain and not enough figures is an issue on some tables.
Then its the draw and general chat about the 2026 World Cup of Historical Wargames Rules. I may mention my despair at the standard of replies in the Preliminary Round, once or twice.
With the draw done its onto Ask Our Nora when we get stuck into your questions. I have to admit I was absolutely overwhelmed with questions this time and had to close off the question posts 24 hours before the show. We didnt manage to get through all the questions, I have 7 A4 pages of 12 point text of questions we didnt get too.
Apologies if you are one of those, we will try and get to them at a later show.
Sit back and enjoy
Until next time, Sithee
