Behind The Shield – Episode 33 – “What is a Vorthos?”

Friday, September 23rd, 2016

It was a slow news week, but Amanda treated us to some shared knowledge about what it means to be a Vorthos. She’s been keeping up with the stories they’ve been publishing on the MTG mothersite and clued some of us in as to what was going on in the world of Magic: The Gathering. It’s really great to hear how the story connects to the cards so many of us overlook as we play them. The next time you get a chance, maybe you could take some time and look into the current story of Magic: The Gathering and enlighten yourself as to what’s going on in the world of the game you play.

Behind The Shield – Episode 30 – “A Short Attention Span For Games”

Friday, September 2nd, 2016

In this episode we get a little nostalgic. We take notice of some of the 80’s resurgence in gaming and talk about some of our favorite games growing up and even discuss some we’d like to see remade today. However, it all goes to hell and our conversation goes from gaming to Star Trek. So apologies ahead of time if you’re not a Star Trek fan. But if you are, get yourself a snack and a drink, and enjoy the show!

Behind The Shield – Episode 29 – “Another Player Has Joined”

Friday, August 26th, 2016

In this week’s episode Andrew and I are joined by a familiar face, and she’s here to stick around…I think. Well, she’s always been there, but not in an official capacity. Now that I think about it, I’m still confused. Ah. Anyways, it’s a fun episode and there’s even a story about someone’s first experience into the world of table top miniature painting. Enjoy the show!
