26. The relationship between history and wargaming with John Stallard

On this episode, Mark welcomes Warlord Games’ John Stallard to the syndicate to discuss the relationship between wargaming and history. John discusses his recollection Brigadier Peter Young and his time in the Sealed Knot, to the writing of historical wargames for the First World War, the Boer War and into the realms of 'what ifs' concerning Konflict '47. The conversations revolve from Mark's interests in the Zulu Wars over to John's passion for simply having a good game. An interesting and enjoyable episode between two individuals who simply love history and wargaming.
