Mack Martin, who is now one of the big brains at Wyrd Miniatures working on the new version of Malifaux, joins us in the third chair this time!

Since Mack is working on the Malifaux rules update, we thought we'd pick his brain. What are they doing? Why are they doing it? When will it be ready? Does my stuff get nurfed?

And later Craig, Russ, and Mack dive into the Iron Kingdoms RPG. In this detailed review they cover everything from character creation to combat mechanics. Stay focused and you'll learn everything you need to know to decide if this RPG is something you should check out.

All that and our other not-too-horrible segments including:

- Total Fan Girl
- Do You Ever Notice
- News
- & More

WOO! NEW EPISODE!

Good show, but I have to say something about the incorrect news reporting about Spartan Games and Uncharted Seas. They are NOT cancelling Uncharted Seas. They are cancelling sales of UCS through retailers. The game will still be available direct through Spartan games indefinitely. Reread their press release. I am part of the Spartan Beta Test group for some new UCS rules updates, so I can say that they have specifically said it is not dead, just direct only. I would think since one of the cast works for them, this would have been reported correctly.

That's a good point, Mordante, if a bit stridently stated

Although I haven't done any work for Spartan since the last official push of theirs for Uncharted Seas last June, I chat with Neil often, and was well aware that this was a 'move-to-direct' issue, however, many of our segments are worked on individually, and what might be known by one is not necessarily known by all. I have not yet heard the News segment, so I'm not sure how it was couched, but if it was, in fact, wrong, we will make an upfront correction, as we always do when we make a mistake . . . which we have been known to do . . .

Thank you for bringing it to our attention.

Let's all just blame this one on the guy with the giant head

Just a note on reading materials. Loved achievements, and as always no have to pare down my "I'd like to" list to what is achievable without forgetting the rest of my family.

Under a looong audiobook that, paraphrased from what was said for another book "takes a while before you see where the story is going" - and you suddenly realize you were in the story all along, may I recommend Anathem? Or Reamde? Both give me the feel of the Bill Cosby line "I told you this story so I could tell you the next one" - except you realize it's always been one story.

Thanks, Darius! Added these to my wish list, so I don't forget them!
