(62W) Sixes to Win

Leisure EN ↓ 35 episodes

Sixes to Win is a podcast about Competitive Wargaming out of Brisbane, Australia. We aim to bring entertaining and informative conversation to Warmachine from a competitive perspective. We plan to explore all aspects of list design, competition psychology, statistical and contextual evaluation skills as well as touch on the softer topics of the hobby, including social interaction, painting and modelling and travel as all of these are intrinsic to the wargaming experience.
