025 - San Diego HistCon and Jason Matthews

74 min • 16 november 2023

Pushing Cardboard starts its third season with a look at Grant's recent trip to SD Histcon as well as an interview with designer Jason Matthews.

Plus: newbie tips, books, news and all the usual wargaming chatter.

*** In this episode I strayed from my usual infallibility and made at least two factual errors. Brian Train’s game on RTT is of course Algeria, not Angola. And the most recent Shakos Nappy game is 1815, not 1817. I inadvertently gave the piker two extra years. Mea culpa.***
