Banter includes a bit about Halloween and a Trip to the Kenosha Civil War Museum to hear author and historian Lance Herdegen discuss his new book Opening Manassas. What we have played lately is Scenario FT206: FDL Chaung. And a little D&D. Some letters from listeners are read. In the Box is Journal 15. And we wrap things up with a little Box Art Review of the cover of Journal 15. Rally Phase Records Presents!A.T.T.

Episode 375: What We Reveal Will Make You Question Everything!
What we reveal will make you question everything. Why are there so many ASL rules? Why is there still banter on this show? When will it all end? Be warned. The lack of surprising answers may shock you. But we do discuss our recent games of Stargrave, Frostgrave and a look at Dave and Dave's game of FT 205 SCRAGGY from Le Franc Tireur. We also take a look at The Song of Medusa Scenario by Scott Mullins. And we wrap things up with a little Box Art Review of the cover of Mannerheim Cross. This review was written by Dennis Donovan.

Episode 372: The ASL Authorities Need to Investigate This!
It's a rip roaring show that will give you cause to open up an investigation of this terribly illicit and nefarious episode. That is most likely because we are joined by Mike Ryzy and Dennis Donovan!Our letters segment begins a bidding war between listener's who don't want Parody Songs, and those that do! Please send us your bid. We accept Cash, services, and Patreon Donations. We are highly recommending the two books, that we review. They are ANGEL DOWN and 60 DAYS IN COMBAT.
