Have Games, Will Travel #88

Card-Driven Wargames and the GMT Weekend

0:36 - Today, I discuss one of my recent infatuations: the
card-driven wargames published by GMT Games. This episode is
dedicated to Jason and Scott of the Point 2 Point Podcast.

1:32 - This show is a member of the Gaming Broadcast Network.

1:40 - In one of my longest segments to date, I give an
overview of how card-driven wargames work, using Paths of Glory,
Twilight Struggle, and The Napoleonic Wars (plus a little about
Wellington) as examples.

35:01 - Fraser Ronald from Accidental Survivors says hello.

35:08 - I spent last weekend at the GMT Games warehouse in
Hanford, CA. In addition to playing some of their card-driven
games, I also got a chance to play Down in Flames and to try
GMT's new pirate game, Winds of Plunder.

41:30 - This show is part of the Gaming Podcast Network.

41:41 - I'll be at Gamex over Memorial Day Weekend, but
hopefully I'll have a new show for you before then.
