TMAT Talks
By Tell Me a Tale (TMAT)
So were we. And then we found each other. Now you've found us, and the circuit is complete.
TMAT (Tell Me a Tale, Great or Small) is a community of American table-top wargamers who enjoy the Middle-Earth Strategy Battle Game by Games Workshop. Perhaps there's something useful here, as well...

TMAT Talks: Episode 22 - Ranking (Evil) Legendary Legions (Sorta...)
Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt continue with their snake-draft style discussion of legendary legions, this time tackling the legions for the forces of evil. Did your favorite legion make the cut, or was it left standing at the altar?
Now available on Anchor, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, and wherever you listen to podcasts!

TMAT Talks: Episode 21 - Ranking (Good) Legendary Legions (Sorta...)
We're back!
It's been a hot minute (okay, more like a year), but Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt are back in action and ready to... rank legendary legions?
Personal preference controls in this snake-draft style discussion that's sure to entertain (we hope). Which legion will be selected first? Which will be left standing at the alter? And is a conversation Centaur had in an elevator single-handedly responsible for the state of the Dale legendary legion in Defense of the North? The answers to these burning questions--and more--lie within. So pick up a brush, get those drinks ready, and prepare to scream at your phone.

TMAT Talks: Episode 20 - And the Oscar goes to...
Happy Friday! Have we got a show for YOU today!
In preparation for TMAT's upcoming Grand Tournament, Tiberius, Centaur and Rythbryt have stumbled on THE hidden gem of MESBG. Having trouble with wizards? Blinding Light? Huge heroes? Elves with sneaky cloaks? Those annoying forests that pop up everywhere?
Well, no more.
Curious? We thought you might be. So join us as we devour some spilled beans.
It's a labor of love, from us to you. Happy Friday!

TMAT Talks: Episode 19 - The Ultimate Uber-Slayer Podcast (Part 5)
One year from when they first began this gargantuan project, Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt are back, attempting to do the impossible: rank the top-50 slayer profiles for the forces of evil.
(No, really... it's very hard!)
In part 5 of their uber-slayer podcast, the TMAT crew discusses their top-picks in three underrated categories (all of which purposefully exclude the likes of the Witch-King, Azog, and Smaug): best budget slayers (under 101 points), best unmounted (man-sized) slayers, and the best generic (spammable) slayers that evil can field. There are some surprises (and surprising omissions, not all of which were intentional).
Did your favorite slayers make the cut? And what does this tell us about how the final list will shake out?

TMAT Talks: Episode 18 - The Fall of the Necromancer Legions and All-Hero Lists
Centaur, Tiberius, and Rythbryt discuss the newest flavor of the month: the Fall of the Necromancer legendary legions, with a special emphasis on what those legions do to make all-hero lists competitive--and how one might apply those lessons to other all-hero lists that are... less competitive... to improve them (like poor Thorin's Company).
Also, is magic OP? (That is the question.) Oh, and there are also some Black Riders hanging about. (Because when are they not?)

After going through the top-10 monsters, casters, supports, snipers, and big honkin' things, the TMAT team is going to attempt the impossible: rank the top slayer models in the Middle-Earth Strategy Battle Game.
The epic journey comes to an end (for now) in Part 4, as Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt roll out their picks for Good's top-10 slayers. Did your favorite model finish on top?
For more on our methodologies, and for further discussion on just how hard it is to rank heroes like this, you can also check out both Rythbryt's and Tiberius's take on Jay Clare's top-10 slayers for the forces of good.

In Part 3, Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt finally crack the top-20... before stalling out at #11. There are a bunch of big names here, and more than a few disagreements. Who's claim to "top slayer" ran out of gas? And who's left standing as we finally approach the top 10?

Centaur, Tiberius, and Rythbryt take a break from rankings to discuss some lists from TMAT follower Daniel! If you've been kicking around 700 point list ideas for Minas Tirith, Mordor, or the Grand Army of the South, perhaps this is the podcast for you?
If not, there's an extended discussion of which wraiths to mount on fell-beast, Citadel Guard vs. Rangers, and the best wing-men/trolls for your Mumak. Plus, Tiberius surprises with a bonus-list of his own!

In Part 2, Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt work their way through Good's honorable mentions, getting all the way to number 21. There are plenty of surprises, a few head-scratchers, and more than a little hair-splitting. Who made the cut, and who was left on the outside looking in at the top 20?

In Part I, Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt preview the tournament's escalation rules, muse on the three scenarios, and discuss the six armies that will take the field before making some (very reluctant) predictions about the weekend.

Well, it's finally that time.
After going through the top-10 monsters, casters, supports, snipers, and big honkin' things, the TMAT team is going to attempt the impossible: rank the top slayer models in the Middle-Earth Strategy Battle Game.
In Part I, Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt begin by going over their various metrics for evaluating these models, then turn to three "special achievement" categories for the Forces of Good: the best generic slayers, the best "under-101 point" slayers, and the best slayers who can't take a mount (we have thoughts on this).
They also spend some time talking at the beginning talking about their methodologies--for more on that (and more discussion on just how hard it is to rank heroes like this), you can also check out both Rythbryt's and Tiberius's take on Jay Clare's top-10 slayers for the forces of good.

TMAT Talks: Episode 8 - Top-10 Snipers (Good and Evil)
Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt take a break from throwing nasty monsters at under-powered heroes to finish their long-delayed discussion of the top-10 "sniper" profiles in the Middle-Earth Strategy Battle Game. Surprise, surprise: they hardly agree, and that's fair. Also, Centaur hates magic.

TMAT Talks: Episode 7 - The Hunters Red October (THRO) 2020
It'd been a while since TMAT's last tournament, so Red Jacket was like, "gotta shake off some cobweb legs, dudes." *
If your tournament scene is quiet (or you're looking for batreps involving Barad-Dur, Hunter Orcs, Angmar, all-mounted Rohan, or Easterlings (with Shagrat)), Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt are back to give you some before-action predictions and post-action breakdowns from our recent 700 point tournament. It's a time-travel miracle! **

After a long (editing-induced) hiatus, Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt dive into their top-10 "Big Honkin' Things" for the forces of evil, which of course means some time in the sun for everyone's favorite evil war beasts and siege engines (plus a couple surprise entries). After giving their rankings, they top things off with three more ally-able army lists (450 points or less) in the pocket-full-of-power segment!

Tiberius, Centaur, and Rythbryt return to discuss their top-10(ish) "Big Honkin' Things"... which turns out to be a whole lot of siege weapons, war beasts, and other giant machines of war. If you've always craved an extended soliloquy on the [Censored] Bolt-Thrower from Minas Tirith, or a dissection of the Khazad-Dum Dwarf Ballista... well, you may need help--but this is the podcast for you!

TMAT Talks: Episode 2 - Top-10 Spell-casters (Good)
In the second episode of TMAT Talks, Centaur, Tiberius, and Rythbryt give their top-10 spell-casters for the forces of good in Games Workshop's Middle-Earth Strategy Battle Game (and had such a good time of it that we ran out of time to discuss evil's spell casters).
This episode also features the debut of a new segment: "A Pocket Full of..." where we offer you mini-lists based around some of our favorite casters that you can incorporate into other armies for some added pop. And it even incorporates the then-most-recent FAQ changes because we care about you (though not the actual-most-recent FAQ changes that reversed some of the prior-recent FAQ changes--not because we don't care but because we're not Time Lords).
