Oh my days. How to incur the wrath of Benji from Osprey Games. I am joined by the delights that are Trevor Benjamin and David Thompson and we talk about Undaunted  : Battle of Britain and General Orders, Sudden Orders, Under Orders, and I pretty much call it everything except the correct name. Absolutely wonderful people.

So a Special one, where Sam Turner from the wonderful Staying In Podcast and Sherwin Matthews from Steamforged Games get together to delve a little bit more into Sherwin's history as a designer, where we talk about designing for IPs, painting, cutting the grass, fan boy moments and we quite literally put together a game about running a coffee shop. All while having the best time.

This review is based on the retail version of the game provided to us by the designer and publisher. We were not paid for this review. We give a general overview of the gameplay and so not all of the mechanical aspects of the game may be mentioned.
 
The majority of the games that we are play are going to take a reasonable number of sessions and playthroughs to fully understand every possibility that they offer. We hope this write up gives you an idea of whether or not this game is something that you will consider playing or even add to your collection. Our Six Degrees of Expectation have been written to make it easier for you to find out what is important to you as a player. Even if we don't like something, hopefully it helps you to decide if it is something that you should find out more about. We always suggest you check out a gameplay video to give you a better understanding of the game as it is played.

Joined by Richard Lawton, who is currently very successfully Kickstarting his game Crown of Ash, and as a Graphic Designer, their approach to both their game design and campaign has been slightly different from the norm. We talk about his field of expertise before diving into his game. It's a very interesting listen indeed.

Ronnie Renton is no miniature in the world of wargaming. (see what I did there) As the owner of Mantic Games, him and his team have continued to bring gamers a range of exciting and different tabletop skirmish games, and he joins me to chat about the return of Dungeon Saga in the form of Dungeon Saga Origins. 
We chat about Mantic, his day to day running of the business, selecting the right talent, a bit about Armada, and we even mention my local game store, Accent Gaming.
