A brief introduction to our newly rebranded podcast (following the huge success of the Paladan podcast in early 2024). In this episode The Paladan, Rich and Loz discuss the dreams for the podcast, what we will talk about in future episodes, and we even managed to have a mini-quiz. Tune in to find out just how little these 3 know about MESBG.

This episode sees Dan, Loz and Rich exploring list building, strategy and how to (potentially) successfully run The Depths of Moria legendary legion.

An episode where Loz and I caught up with the legendary Harry Parkhill of Entmoot fame. Harry shares his hobbying history, the details of his latest tournament and some tips for new starters. He also goes head to head with the me (the Paladan) in a quiz organised by our resident quizmaster Rich.

An episode all about proxies. My guest, Jon and I talk about all things proxies. Except long philosophical debates about the morality of it (just kidding).

A guest episode with Loz and Rich, who share what they’ve been up to in the hobby recently as well as answering some of the FAQs new players have. We end with a 10 question quiz which may become a regular part of my podcast!

General life and Paladan MESBG updates, a discussion around the recent Warhammer Community post featuring Arnor Knights and some top tips (sent in by Loz AKA The Morgul Babe)

A post GBHL 80 doubles tournament episode featuring the TO Natalie and my doubles partner Jack.

After attending a tournament at Sanctuary near Nottingham, listen to the reflections of some of my fellow teammates from Fellowship of Steel and get to know two more members of our Sheffield based team.

My first interview with a real person! Jonny from our GBHL team talks about all things MESBG. You’ll also get a sneak peak of my and Jonny’s list for our upcoming tournaments.

A good half hour ramble about how I paint and my little-to-no experience at it. I’m surprised it’s even coherent! Even if you just listen to catch me out.. check it out.

This episode focuses mainly on the things I wish I knew earlier on in my time playing MESBG. Mainly game prep & list building with a bit about playing the game too.

Welcome to my podcast! In this intro episode I talk a little bit about myself and share my top tips for new or prospective MESBG players.
