Specialist Games Podcast
« on: May 26, 2015, 02:51:45 PM »
Hi guys,

I have been thinking alot recently about trying to set up a Specialist Games orientated podcast - looking mostly at EPIC, BFG, Necromunda, Warmaster, and Mordheim. There is definitely a gap in coverage and I think it would help to bind together the rather disparate communities that are still keeping these games alive. I don't really have much experience in this area beyond listening, but I would welcome any thoughts or suggestions (I've put a post up here if you want to comment etc - https://epicaddiction.wordpress.com/…/podcasting-specialis…/ ).

I think it could be a really good resource for sharing campaigns, rule developments, proxy models, looking back at old material etc etc.

Let me know what you think

I think its a great idea, as long as you can keep the momentum going. It takes a lot of 'behind the scenes' work to do a podcast (I tried a few short pieces a while ago). I would be happy to support/host for download here.

Sounds like a great idea to me too. I can't really think of anything I have to add though.

Thanks Cybershadow, I know it will be alot of work but I think it would be something useful to the community. I am planning on taking it slow and recording a number of pieces before finally "going live" with it.

There are a few Blood Bowl podcasts, some have been running for a few years.  I don't listen to them myself (don't enjoy the podcast format) but it might be worth talking to a few of those creators, at least to see if they have a link of do's and don'ts.

If that is of any interest to you, either contact them direct or give me a shout and I'll try to put you in contact with some of them.
