The Art of Wargaming
09/14/20 • 156 min
In all the best fiction, there is a kernel of reality. This is true of many stories, but the one we focus on today is that of Star Wars and the epic combat styles of the Jedi and Sith that make the franchise so enjoyable. Within the teachings of the Jedi, we can find tools to help us be better fighters, more mindful of ourselves and in harmony with our communities. Within the writings of the Sith, we have the will to power and all the pitfalls that come with it. Join us as we explore how the teachings of these 'ancient' orders can aid us in our quest to be better fighters and community members.

Episode 31: Master of Destiny
The Art of Wargaming
08/17/20 • 103 min
The episode begins with a brief dive into the rules changes for 9th Edition Warhammer 40k. The changes are subtle in most cases, but definitely worth going over. We then transition into looking at the final conclusions of Frederick's book, where he specifies what opportunities present the best odds for joining battle. Of course, opportunity is nothing without having the advantages to seize them, which he also defines. Misfortune is a constant comrade in war, however, and a commander must always have contingencies in place to deal with them. In his final section, Frederick then details the best use of downtime between campaigns; advice that is useful both in the winter time and during pandemic.

Episode 30: The Importance of Where
The Art of Wargaming
08/03/20 • 73 min
As a commander, Frederick was daring and dynamic. As an author, he was methodical and thorough. After a brief recap of how to handle armies of different sizes, the hosts of TAOW then move into a larger exploration of location before a deeper examination of oblique tactics. Any strategy must adapt to the shape of the field, therefore the amount and type of terrain are paramount considerations. To top it off, for the battle report this week, Malark and Thumbs take a look at an unexpected feather in Frederick's cap.

Episode 29: Surprise and Prevention
The Art of Wargaming
07/20/20 • 92 min
A siege is a messy business for all sides involved. Brutal close-quarters fighting and high casualty rates on both sides make the prospect a daunting one, regardless of whether attacking or defending. The tactics for these two roles differ greatly even though they fight the same battle. The attacker wants to end it quickly and with as little loss of life as possible. The defender wants to hold out and delay, hoping to break their assailant by force or nerves. In this episode, Thumbs and Malark examine what it takes to storm fixed positions of any sort, as well as what is required if you are called to defend them.

Episode 28: Danger Zone
The Art of Wargaming
07/06/20 • 120 min
No plan survives the first encounter with the enemy, and yet there must be a purpose to a battle to give it structure. Whether we be attacking or defending, all of our movements must be done with certainty and forethought, as armies can be large and ungainly things. Yet within this maneuver, there is peril, for when we move against the enemy we often leave ourselves vulnerable. In this episode, we explore movement with a purpose when considered against the concept of the "River" and the ever present danger zones lurking on the field.
