Welcome to Joshing Around in Eä! We're just three mates drinking some specialty mead (remotely joined by the absolute gentlemen from Just Roll Ones) and chatting about Conquest...

This episode, get yourself strapped in for the single worst introduction to any podcast ever created. If you can get through that, you'll love everything else that comes.

[HEALTH WARNING: This was recorded with five microphones spread across three locations using a digital platform that decided to stop working. Please do bear with the unavoidable audio challenge it may present at various points. We love your ears more than our tools do.]

Be the first to hear about JRO Aaron's plan for a meadery. Wonder with us about what the topic for the episode ought to be (spoiler alert: Conquest). Listen to some of the most embarrassing mispronunciations of Weaver Courts regiments around, to protect the rest of the world from sounding racist. Allow your mind to run wild with theories about how to improve the game, how the existing factions work together, and the deep psychological impacts of our collective addiction to the game.

As always, thank you ever so much for being a fantastic listener to our podcast. If you have any questions you'd like us to wrestle with, or if you have a drink to contribute that we can audibly enjoy, please do get in touch at joshingaroundinea@gmail.com.

Welcome to Joshing Around in Eä! We're just three mates drinking some homemade mead (generously gifted by JRO Aaron) and chatting about Conquest...

This episode, it's the collaboration you never knew you wished had never taken place. All of the classic ingredients are there. Listener questions! Compliments about brewing processes! Historical inaccuracies cleared up! And we even (eventually) get to talking about Conquest.

Game by game, opponent by opponent, army by army we dissect the London Grand Tournament. The official UK Conquest podcast rivalry is well and truly revived after the shambles of last year's trial run. Who won? Which factions are actually the best? Is there a way for Spires to get to Chios? There's only one place to find the answer, and it's in this podcast episode.

Seriously, if you've reached this point in the show notes without having started listening to it, you're in the wrong place. Just press the play button, ignore this, and get back to painting those minis.

But if you are still here, please do send in your listener questions to joshingaroundinea@gmail.com, and please consider purchasing our book, The Tabletop Miniature Wargamer's Handbook: An ideal companion for the modern wargamer. Find the ⁠⁠Amazon link⁠⁠ below:⁠⁠ https://amzn.eu/d/5dOUmlZ⁠⁠

Welcome to Joshing Around in Eä! We're just three mates drinking some herbal Spanish liqueur and chatting about Conquest...

Entirely apart from allowing our tastebuds to travel across Europe, we grapple with important topics in this episode. Tune in this time for out of context text messages!

Wondering what to do for a Birthday party? The answer is here.

How many other Conquest podcasts give you the experience of sending kissy face emojis live on air?

And there's a genuinely compelling listener question from someone whose name begins with R. For the record, please send us an email. Please. We're begging you.

Eventually, there's even an in-depth discussion around a reasonably important topic. It's literally already out of date. And it reveals the extent to which our addiction to plastic crack is something to be concerned about. If you want to feel better about your own pile of shame this is definitely one for you.

If you've ever wanted to hear three people who still don't know the rules of Conquest: The Last Argument of Kings giving away all of their secrets and making you feel a whole lot better about facing them across a tabletop, this episode is for you. We'll break down each of the scenarios we'll be playing at LGT, the way to play them depending on faction, and getting ourselves sweaty as we listen to Josh's list.
