A Few Post-GenCon Thoughts

ByDankelzahn

I’m back in St. Louis and still recovering from GenCon. ย  A lot of the announcements and previews at the Privateer Press booth have already hit the various forums so there’s no need to talk about those again. ย  Josh, Jason, and I recorded a lot of interviews over the weekend which we’ll be posting as we get them cleaned up.

It was a blast meeting and talking to fellow Warmachine players from across the country like the SOBs. We recorded Episode 50 of the Iron Agenda in the Wabash room late Friday during open play and I think by the end of the episode we had cycled 11 people behind the microphones.

The downside of the Con this year was getting sick, missing the last Hardcore of MkI, and now I’m fighting off some sort of cold/sinus infection. ย  Still I had a great weekend and am already looking forward to next year.

We’ll be talking about the news surrounding Privateer Press, their Next Big Thing, the Retribution, and more here and on the podcast in the near future, so keep an eye open.

Where’s the WIP?

ByDankelzahn

Boy, have I been slacking as of late. ย  Part of that has been gearing up the Iron Agenda but everything started with the beginning of the summer Con season. ย  In preparation for Privateer Press Weekend at DieCon here in St. Louis (which I’ve written about already) I joined in with some fellow Podthralls listeners in starting our own version of the Gamer Journal that Privateer Press had featured in what was then the most recent issue of No Quarter (at the expense of posting my WIPs here).

I have added news feeds from Diminutive Denizens, my miniature gallery web sit, to try and make sure that I can keep producing some content, but when my camera got borrowed for a couple months even that slowed down. ย  I’m working on getting back into the swing of things… we’ll just have to see what sort of progress I can make.

Introducing the Iron Agenda

ByDankelzahn

Iron Agenda: The podcast about Warmachine, Hordes, and whatever else is on our minds.

We’re finally ready for an official announcement! ย  The Iron Agenda Podcast is an hour long discussion in which we will try to cover two topics – one strategic topic and one more meta-related topic – when discussing Privateer Press miniature games. That said we’re certainly going to stray from this format from time to time. In fact we’re occasionally going to stray from PP games entirely – we already have plans for a Pulp City episode for example.

In addition to the regular hosts you’ll hear other voices from time to time as we have some of the other locals on to provide additional views on whatever topics we happen to be discussing.

Our first episode has been released on our web site as well as an initial Episode 0 designed as an introduction to our show. Episode 2 and Bonus Episode 1 have both been recorded and are currently being edited – our feed will be updated as soon as they drop.

We’re still finding our voices and settling into things but we’d love to get feedback from anyone who cares to listen.
