Episode 27 – Nobody Gnomes the trouble I’ve seen, nobody Gnomes but Rodney!

It’s a special episode this one, with a few podcast firsts. We have the first ever picture quiz (yes I know, it was Shipaz idea). We have our first deep dive on the new Gnome Team and their stars. We also have the first introduction of the new Gnome community. We also have the news, Tell me the odds and of course a run down of the Cup of the North including the grand champion of Season 2.

Episode 26 – Which skills would the podcast pick if the podcast could pick skills?.

Episode 26 – Which skills would the podcast pick if the podcast could pick skills?.

In this episode we have a fun discussion about creating skills for Blood Bowl. There is no reason for this other than to see which of us could come up with the best ones. We don’t have any news this episode (It was recorded before the Gnome release/spoilers) but we have a different Tell me the odds where Shipaz asks “What can a snotling do?”

Bucky gets to put on his quiz which is all rather pointless and we have a quick catch up of the Cup of the North.

Episode 16 - They played the Monster Bash, It was a graveyard smash!

We’re back and can you believe it we are back up from three to four, the musketeers and once again whole. Bucky has returned. We celebrate his return by looking into the stats from the NAF website, discussing whether we believe a tournament organiser should play competitively in their own tournament (Like Bucky did) and also give a low down on the upcoming Monster Bash Tournament hosted by yours truly. There is an in depth tournament report from the recent Block on the Tyne event as well as the usual stuff. We have Peo’s corner, a Bobster special in Tell me the odds, and Peo gets (tournament) personal with the quiz.

Episode 14 - “Buzzers, Blitzer’s and Biguns. What more do you Waaaaaaaagh-nt?”

We’re back with a slightly later episode this time around but to make up for it we have a very special guest in the form of Breakmonker, the TO of the CCC team tournament and winner of this year’s Water Monkey Trophy. Considering our guest and the fact that this year has been one full of tournaments, not one of them the same as another, and as a cast full of avid attendees, we decided to discuss what we think is both the best and worst aspects of tournaments as a whole. The Team Talk means we take a deep dive into the OG team (That’s Original Green Skins for those not down with the kids) that is Orcs. We then up the tension in this episodes Quiz by adding a buzzer.

Of course we have all the usual segments with Peo's corner answering all your questions and thoughts. Shipaz tells us the odds of a fantastic play involving our guest and a host. TheCowDaddy will also tell you what’s coming up in the realm of table top tournaments with more information on the upcoming Monster Bash tournament.
