LHRep49: Pointy-Eared Lunatics

2012-02-26T00:06:00.000-05:00

It's been a while since we've turned our collective gaze towards Ios, so this time Gdaybloke and Northblade thought it was time to take another look at the Retribution of Scyrah... and who better to drag on as a guest than someone who gave up playing Cryx competitively, to take up exclusively playing the Retribution for over a year? Oh, and the master of jean shorts managed to sneak his way in to talk about those filthy Cryxians as well. Join us, won't you? Download the episode on iTunes or by clicking the link: LINK!

LHRep48: Templecon Afterglow

2012-02-15T23:21:00.000-05:00

It's the first convention of the year for the Lost Hemisphere crew - Templecon! Much to everyone's surprise, Rhode Island is still there, pillaging was kept to a minimum, and no Dunkin' Donuts were harmed in the making of this episode. Northblade, Gdaybloke and Faultie all butt their heads against each other as they try to remember what happened on which say, and just for the heck of it we sat down with a couple of Privateer staffers for some short chats as well.

Yes, Ladies and Gentelost, it's another episode of your favourite podcast with the words "Lost" and "Hemisphere" in the title. This time your stalwart hosts Northblade and Gdaybloke have wrangled No Quarter editor Aeryn Rudel back into the guest spot to talk about the niftiness that comes with No Quarter #40. IKRPG, Black Dragon Iron Fang Pikemen and War-Torn Alliances? Why not!

LHRep46: A Whole New Year

2012-01-17T22:25:00.000-05:00

We've had our little break for a couple of weeks and now it's time to jump into a whole new year of bloggery... and what better way to start the year than helping a pal? THACite, retired Podthrall, and current Titan Dale Kunz joins us and for some reason expects us to be able to help him decide on a Legion of Everblight list to run in Templecon's Blood, Sweat and Tiers tournament. Clearly he's delusional... but he's in good company as your hosts Gdaybloke and Northblade settle in after the holidays.

Oh, and we talk about possible New Years gaming resolutions and some other malarkey as well. Get your mitts on the natterings on iTunes, or from the linky: LINKY!

LHR 2011 Jinglesode

2011-12-24T10:12:00.001-05:00

Merry Happy Ho Ho, Losties! After another year of Lost niftiness, your charming and dashing hosts decided to toss together a little listening pleasure for you... or torture depending on your perspective. It's half an hour or so of shout-outs, nods, and some festive tunes, with some vague references to our beloved Warmachine and Hordes tossed in. Download the episode on iTunes or by clicking the linky (Linky!) but above all, have a fantastic Christmas, Hannukah, Festivus, Solstice, Noodly appendage thingie, or whatever it is that you choose to celebrate.

LHRep45: Templecon 2012

2011-12-20T19:00:00.000-05:00

As we move into the last few days before Christmas, right before the kids are all out of school to bug their parents for the holidays, snow for those up North and of course, balmy summer days for those Down Under, I'm reminded of one thing... Templecon's just around the corner! Time to stop being all wishy-washy with faction preferences, time to lock in lists and cram in as much practice as you can before the Lost crew invade our adopted "home" convention.

For this episode of Lost Hemisphere Radio, our intrepid hosts brave the fury of the man known only as Hacksaw* to get the skinny on the tournament formats at Templecon, a rundown of what sort of goodies await those who participate, and to generally natter with one of the driving forces behind Steamroller 2012.

LHRep44: Swan Song

2011-12-07T20:03:00.000-05:00

We've had three back-to-back episodes talking about Hordes, time to bring a little robot action back, donchathink? Who can guess just how much Northblade had to bribe Gdaybloke to let him do a whole episode about Cygnar... Yup, it's an all blue, all electric, all swan episode as Gdaybloke tries to restrain his urges to wrack both his co-host and their guest for being filthy Morrowans. All in all, I think he behaved pretty well... but we'll see what ended up in the Easter Eggs.

LHRep43: Domination Pt3 and NQ39

2011-11-29T23:29:00.002-05:00

It's time to finish up our waltz through Domination, and we saved the Minions to chat with a guest who actually plays a Blindwater Congregation... and he just happens to be the Editor in Chief of No Quarter magazine as well, so we thought we'd drag him through the latest release of our favourite periodical.

It's time, ladies and gentlelost, to once more don your headphones - the Lost Hemisphere boys are back to complete their initial overview of Privateer Press' newest expansion, Hordes: Domination. This time, Skorne and Legion are on the table as Gdaybloke and Northblade make their guest justify all those darn spikey bits. Did I say guest? I meant guests - plural - as we sneak in a bonus pal to chat with after the break.

Will Northblade keep his pants on? Can Gdaybloke stay awake? Will either guest admit to secretly enjoying painting Cataphract flags? Download on iTunes or click the link to find out - LINK!

2011-11-14T23:50:00.000-05:00

Somewhere deep in the wilds of Quebec, Northblade runs free... leaving Gdaybloke to shanghai Boots as his co-host in Lost Hemisphere's first look at Hordes: Domination. Spending some time with the Circle Orboros and the Trollbloods, is it any wonder that after all was said and done they just wanted to tear down civilisation? Though that could have been sleep deprivation speaking...

LHRep40: All Hemisphere's Eve

2011-10-30T23:32:00.000-04:00

It was a dark and stormy night, and all across the Hemisphere, Losties were gathered with their families behind shuttered windows and bolted doors, hoping to keep out the terrible, horrible, and downright unpleasant things that were lurking in the darkness... ominous footsteps through the puddles, the pitter-patter of raindrops falling on corroded carapaces, and high keening of Kenny G.... yep, it was just that scary.

Good thing everyone had a festive episode of Lost Hemisphere Radio to listen to! Join Gdaybloke, Northblade, and their guest as the Nightmare Empire dominates the discussion. Pick up the episode on iTunes, or by clicking the link... SPOOKY LINK!

2011-10-21T20:52:00.000-04:00

Some podcasts like to use a numerical system to order their episodes. Well, we here at Lost Hemisphere Radio found ourselves having a nice big discussion about Unbound with the King of All Media, Norbert Brunhuber, and it occured to us - why should we be bound by such petty things as numbers? And why *wouldn't* Norbert be holding a fish??

Ladies and Gentelelost, welcome to Episode Norb of Lost Hemisphere Radio, wherein we talk Foodmachine, Unbound formations, and a bunch of other malarkey. Won't you be our neighbor?

2011-10-09T21:38:00.000-04:00

What's more fun than a podcast episode with a title full of acronyms! Well, many things, I'm sure, but for now it's time to once more get Lost with your hosts Gdaybloke and Northblade as they rake their guest over the metaphorical coals in the quest for some details regarding the Breast Cancer Brawls being held this year, and compare notes on how to survive three-day conventions without lapsing into a sleep-deprivation-induced coma. Oh, and we got our hands on the current draft of the Templecon 2012 tournament schedule as well. Ain't we stinkers?

LHR ep37: What Agenda?

2011-09-27T20:41:00.000-04:00

Seriously, I googled "No Agenda" and got a pic of fighting Squirrels... HAH! Anyway, the Lost Hemisphere boys are back for another round, flying by the seat of their pants and dragging their guest along for the ride. This time, it's renowned lover of tiny land sharks and laser engraving, PG Ravyn, to natter about Legion in Hardcore, fill us in on the dirty details behind Advanced Deployment, and to make a weird little purring noise at every opportunity.

2011-09-21T22:53:00.000-04:00

ZOMG! We're late! I blame Faultie. Why? Cos Norbert said to. See, we had this wonderful epic 3 hour chat about news, map leagues, and starting out with models other than the battleboxes, and then BAM! Audio Gremlins promptly ate two hours worth of superb niftiness.

Much scrambling, and after taking Spud out behind the garden shed and shooting him for his insolence, we grabbed Norbert, Seraphsong and Boots to rerecord the segments as best we could. You miss out on the original awesomeness, but hey! Now you get Norbert and Boots! That's almost as good as a Coke Zero! Find us on iTunes, or click the link to download! Linky!

LHR ep35: No Quarter X

2011-08-28T14:52:00.000-04:00

Ten years ago Privateer Press started the journey that has led them towards becoming one of the premiere miniature gaming companies in the world. Constantly raising the bar for gaming excellence, it only makes sense that Privateer celebrates its tenth year by... giving us a bonus magazine, chock full of fiction, hobby articles, behind-the-scenes peeks, and the single biggest battle report ever to appear in the pages of No Quarter.

Given the significance of this release, it only makes sense to grab NQ Editor In Chief Aeryn Rudel by the earlobe and pull him in to chat with Lost Hemisphere Radio host Northblade... the only question is, who's the surprise cohost filling in for Gdaybloke while he's off recovering from the dreaded lurgy? Who's to blame? Who's fault is it??

Know what makes for a fascinating episode of Lost Hemisphere Radio? Listening to two guys who didn't even attend, talk about it for an hour or two. Bugger that! We were lucky enough to have three roving reporters at GenCon 2011, so I think it's only fair that we let them do most of the natterings! As we break all of our normal rules about the number of guests, please welcome back to Lost Hemisphere Radio Ayden "Boots" Boutilier and Craig "Lonelymonk" Caton, and we'll toss in interviewer Andrew "Faultie" Bailey as seasoning. He's a little like oregano.

Because you demanded it - no, not you, you there in the back, with the weird facial growth - YOU demanded it, so JDWhitee's back to join us for another episode of Lost Hemisphere Radio! This time around we take a few chunks out of No Quarter 37, toss a few lists together, and spend far too long talking about a question from one listener. Just one! Imagine if we'd had TWO people sending in questions!

Will Naaresh inspire JDWhitee to get a plethora of piercings? Will Haley's new theme send Northblade into Storm Strider spasms? Will Gdaybloke actually put a NON theme force on the table to test out the Ogrun Assault Corps? And in the end, what would three guys who don't play Khador do with Strakhov? Tune in to find out!

2011-07-19T21:33:00.000-04:00

One more time, boys and girls! Gdaybloke and Northblade are back with the third of their triumvirate of Wrath discussions, and we''ll be darned if they aren't dragging the King of All Media through the muck and mire with them as they sully their hands with talk of Cygnar and Khador and what their Wrath releases portend for the forces of Leto and Ayn Vanar.

Recorded on July 15th, LHR ep32 may or may not have been recorded in a snowstorm, and may or may not be infested by audio gremlins because someone fed the mogwai after midnight. You can partake of the wintery wonderland by downloading the episode on iTunes, or by clicking this here link: LINKY!

Gdaybloke and Northblade are back with the second of their triumvirate of Wrath discussions, this time delving into the Nightmare empire and nattering about Cryx, and then seeing if Gdaybloke's still awake to talk about Menite stuff afterwards. Darn these long, late-night recording sessions!

Recorded on July 2nd, LHR ep31 may or may not be powered by caffiene, fruit loops and whatever Australian candy Northblade's wife managed to smuggle into the country. We admit nothing. You can make up your own mind by downloading the episode on iTunes, or by clicking this here link: LINKY!

Ladies and Gentlelost, after a hiatus we're back, and ready to celebrate all that is Warmachine: Wrath. Now, full disclosure, we've gone through a few changes behind the scenes and we're still working out out all the kinks as we work to find a new groove and shuffle the formats a tad, but we hope you'll bear with us as we get all of our ducks in a row.

2011-06-02T23:26:00.001-04:00

One of the coolest things about our rotating guest format is that, odds are, every once in a while we'll end up with someone who actually knows what they're talking about. For episode 29 of everyone's favourite audio iteration of our usual wacky Lost shenanigans, MenothJohn and Gdaybloke are joined by a guest known for his competitive acumen, so naturally we pick his brains while dealing with godawful satellite interwebs lag, and then call in a ringer late in the piece.

Yay! John's back! The Dynamic Duo of Lost Hemispodcasting, along with their dreamy guest, return to meander their way through the pages of No Quarter #36 (that's three dozen issues - milestone!) and to apply their collective ponderings to Unbound, the new rules for ridiculously large games of Warmachine and Hordes.

You do realise, of course, that Gdaybloke will have an excuse to field 6 (!) Allegiants in an Unbound game? Why, it's enough to make a guy giddy. Tune in and get Lost, people! Download the episode on iTunes, or via this here linky: LINKY!

2011-05-06T07:03:00.000-04:00

Not long ago on the Lost Hemisphere blog we discussed the issue of game burnout and ways to avoid it; one method discussed is cleansing the palette - taking a brief hiatus from your normal hobby fascination, indulging in something else, and then coming back to your main game refreshed and revitalised.
In this episode of Lost Hemisphere Radio, aside from the usual Warmachine and Hordes mutterings, Gdaybloke spends some time with pals James and Kevin, taking an overview look at Spartan Games' three fleet games Uncharted Seas, Firestorm Armada and Dystopian Wars, and Soda Pop's super cute Super Dungeon Explore and impending Relic Knights.

Every once in a while the planets align in some sort of conjunction that some folks assign a mystical meaning to, and most of the rest of the world don't really seem to care about... now it's our turn! With Gdaybloke suffering from the dreaded lurgy, it's the return of the Fez, co-hosting with MenothJohn to bring Lost Hemisphere Radio and Fell Calls together once more... but the title of the episode says Triune, no? That means... Oh Dear Lord in Heaven, the Losties have shanghai'd someone from another Warmachine podcast as their guest! What could this mean?

Hi. How are you? Did you miss us? We've been well, thank you. Yes, the weather has been rather mutable. At least we've been able to pass the time with a brand new No Quarter... Oh yeah, and editor Aeryn Rudel was kind enough to drop by for tea and elevenses. He totally brought a flan. It was very tasty. Ahem...

Yeah, that's right folks, the Lost Hemisphere boys are back to wander through No Quarter 35, seeing what we can squeeze out of Privateer staffer and No Quarter editor Aeryn. Who's really responsible for the Berserker MkII, Aeryn? And remember, you're under oath...

Join us as we discuss model previews, new theme forces, and find tease Aeryn about his closet Khadoran tendencies. Oh, and JDWhitee joins us after the break to share his insights on the Dawn's Talon and some other random malarky.

We've been at this gig for almost a year now, and every step of the way we've managed to avoid 'em, but now MenothJohn and Gdaybloke finally turn their thoughts to the armies of Cygnar. Golden boy Stryker leads the charge as the Lost Hemisphere Lads and their special guest natter a tad about those who bear the Cygnus, toss out some 50pt army lists, and then bounce a few thoughts about the IK RPG as it stands, and some hopes for the future.

Return of the Bloke! That's right, the border police couldn't keep him away, and now that he's back in the Frozen North, it's only appropriate that we talk about the Frozen North! Yup, harkening back to the early days of LHR, MenothJohn and Gdaybloke drag a one of Ayn Vanar's military advisors from his war cabinet (which looks surprisingly like a drinks cabinet) to talk about Khador's evolution in MkII, and how to disassemble a Winterguard Death Star without needing to fire a torpedo down an exhaust port.

But wait, there's more! Gdaybloke gets to unload on some of his favourite moments of Templecon 2011, and since we're talking about giant warjacks, the lads track down the Holloway boys and make them spill the beans on constructing the Colossal scenario board at Templecon. What was it made of, why did it only have one arm, and just which of the two did all the hard work!

Ladies and Gentlelost, it's time to once more bend your delicate shell-like ears as we regale you with tales of adventure and derring-do in Rhode Island as Lost Hemisphere invades Templecon 2011! Think you can handle the awesomeness as MenothJohn takes control of the Good Ship LHR and covers for Gdaybloke's absence with a guest co-host? Who could it be? Well, if you gotta get a co-host for a Warmachine/Hordes podcast, why not shanghai one of the dudes who pioneered the concept? That's right, MenothJohn done found hi'self a Podthrall!

Ride with the boys as they ponder just how they survived 72 hours of non-stop gamery, whether or not Fez's are cool, and just for a lark, ripping Dicewraith out of his cocoon to talk about the Blindwater Congregation seemed like a great idea at the time. Oh, and just so you're not left completely high and dry when it comes to Gdaybloke's accent, turns out he managed to corner a few folk to chat with at Templecon, and the sneaky bugger managed to record the conversation...

Can Menothjohn, Dicewraith and our secret guest convince Gdaybloke to try Cygnar? Or maybe just something a little Cygnaresque?

Random speculation is just the beginning as we look at some league models, contemplate Epic Baldur, and try to recover from a terrible, terrible opening. Who the heck let Gdaybloke rewrite the lyrics?? Get the goodness on iTunes, or through a direct download: Linky!

LHR ep18: ChristmaTempleRahnisode

2010-12-30T17:10:00.000-05:00

So what happens when Skype's outage scuppers our Christmas Rahn-themed episode and we really really want to talk about Templecon? Why, we just jam it all together! It's possibly our rambliest episode yet as we try to cram too much awesome into one episode, and stare aghast as it all detonates into pockets of nonsensical shenanigans!
MARVEL as Gdaybloke tries to kinda sorta follow an agenda! GASP as MenothJohn tries to adopt our guest! SNICKER as you imagine just how badly our guest will need to pee by the time it's all done!

LHR ep17: Aeryn Rudel and the Goblet of Fire

2010-12-09T19:39:00.001-05:00

Today we bring you a super special slap-yo-gramma episode and who's on the grill? None other than Privateer Press' Gator-lovin' Aeryn Rudel, big head editor type dude of No Quarter, the periodical that portends perspicacity for the pernicious participant in Privateer's pastimes. Oh, we ramble about a few other things as well, but let's face it, it's all about Aeryn this time around.
Fair warning this episode did have a few technical difficulties, which I assure you we feel absolutely terrible about, but re-recording the episode would mean we'd have to come up with a whole new set of lightning round questions for Aeryn, and then you'd miss out on the original magic.

LHR ep16: The Circle Orboros

2010-11-25T18:04:00.000-05:00

Ladies and Gentlelost, after taking an extra week off to recover from episode 15, MenothJohn and Gdaybloke are back to crack the spine on Forces of Hordes: Circle Orboros, along with their special guest who knows more about Circle than the two of them put together. He may not say much, but pay careful attention when he does speak, for indeed, he's dropping a heavy vibe that may well harsh your opponents mellow.

From JohnCon2 to Templecon 2011, from a tree with a vote (take that, suffrage movement!) to a everyone's favourite jumbo shrimp with a lazer beam, this is Lost Hemisphere Radio episode 16. Download via iTunes, or right here by clicking this very link.

LHR ep15: The Hobby Side

2010-11-04T20:04:00.003-04:00

We spend so much time working on miniatures before putting them on the tabletop, isn't it about time we talked about it? Join us for another episode of Lost Hemisphere Radio. This time Gdaybloke, MenothJohn and their special guest talk about painting, modding, sculpting - paintbrushes and power tools, people...
... oh, and we take a stroll through some new release news, stand in awe of the sheer audacity of those participating in Privateer's Impossible Dream challenge, and just for the halibut, review Fantasy Flight's Death Angel card game.

LHR ep14: Legion of Everblight Review

2010-10-21T20:01:00.001-04:00

What's the best way to celebrate the release of Forces of Hordes: Legion of Everblight? Why, sitting down and listening to over two hours of MenothJohn, Gdaybloke, and their special guest going over new models and theme forces!

Join us as we revel in the niftiness that is the latest Hordes Mk II release, including much discourse on what's possibly the most innovative warlock in the game to date! Can Gdaybloke be bullied into making a Wizard of Oz Flying Monkeys list? Can MenothJohn find some real beer to drink? Can our guest survive all these shenanigans?? Oh, the humanity!

LHR ep13: Keeping it Pink

2010-10-14T21:42:00.004-04:00

Miss us? I know you did... well, miss us no longer - it's time for another does of Lost Hemisphere Radio, recommended by 9 our of 10 dentists who like Lost Hemisphere Radio. This time around Menothjohn and Gdaybloke drag on their special guest to mark Breast Cancer Awareness month by discussing the Breast Cancer Brawl tournaments, including the granddaddy of them all (or should that be grandma?), BCB: Boise.

We take a mental meander over some Retribution (Invictors are good), Trolls (Dannon & Bull killed something!) and Mercs (Roulette is a dirty, dirty feat), and let's not forget our first mini-interview as one of our roving reporters corners PPS DC and makes him answer the questions no-one else would dare to ask...

LHR ep.12: Forces of Hordes: Trollbloods

2010-09-24T07:24:00.001-04:00

Did you miss us? Cos we're back! Gdaybloke and MenothJohn have had enough of your foolish shenanigans, it's time to get tough! Forces of Hordes: Trollbloods has been released, and what better way to celebrate it than raking a super secret special guest over the coals! Seriously, who the heck owns six freakin' Pyre Trolls???

Fiction and background fluff, the careful application of a bazooka, just how far *can* Pyg Bushwhackers shoot on turn one, and we even touch on taking your existing collection and making a theme force out of it with minimal impact on your wallet.

As usual, the incarnate niftiness can be found on iTunes, or downloaded directly right here: Linky!

BONUS EPISODE: John's a Chipmunk

2010-09-15T21:08:00.000-04:00

I don't know why, but for some cray reason, it looks like there's a bunch of you out there who really want to hear the original recording of LHR ep11, in which MenothJohn chitters like a chipmunk. What's wrong with you people???

Regardless, for those of you who are actually either addicted to Alvin or just really want to punish your ears and battle your way through a three person discussion when one's completely unintelligible, we present Lost Hemisphere Radio's first bonus episode...

Seriously, if this is your first episode of LHR, please go listen to one of the other ones. This one's goofy as all heck. If you actually do listen to it, and make it all the way to the end, you deserve a cookie.

LHRep11a: Warstore Weekend

2010-09-14T07:04:00.001-04:00

Ah, dear listener, how we mourn Episode 11. You see, Episode 11 was the epitome of podcastery, with discussion of impending events, Summer Rampage, and other joyful verbal meanderings... but it was eaten by audio gremlins. So as not to leave you completely bereft of our voices, your noble hosts Gdaybloke and MenothJohn valiantly rescheduled their guest, fired up the mics and went for Round Two... but one of your hosts exploded in a puff of illogic and feathers. It was kinda pretty really.

Enjoy this shorter-than-usual episode as one of your beloved hosts rakes our guest over the coals to extract the secrets of the impending Warstore Weekend, Foodmachine, and a li'l announcement concerning Lost Hemisphere's planned shenanigans at our favourite convention, Templecon!

LHR ep10: Castigate This!

2010-08-28T16:34:00.001-04:00

When MenothJohn's away, Gdaybloke will play! Well, will record another episode for your listening pleasure, at least. Tune in as Gdaybloke tries vainly to fill the gap left by MenothJohn's absence with a little dose of Moonova.

Not quite willing to let go of the Skorne yet, we once more visit the empire as Moonova natters about Xerxis, then we discuss Menite heavies and ponder the red-headed stepchild of the 8pt Protectorate warjacks, the Castigator - and Gdaybloke, addicted as he is to theme forces, postulates on using them with different casters as part of a smokescreen... or flamescreen, whatever.

LHR ep9: GenCon and Skorne

2010-08-12T21:24:00.005-04:00

Those wacky lads MenothJohn and Gdaybloke are at it again, this with an overlength episode tackling both GenCon and the newly released Forces of Hordes: Skorne.

Who's the bigger masochist? Which beers are fueling our hosts and their unsuspecting guests? Gasp as they compare new releases! Wince as MenothJohn makes everyone drink! Shudder as the witty banter begins to show the effects of simultaneous late night podcasting and beverages!

Bear with us as we plow through two heady topics and leave Norbert wondering why, oh why, despite his super nice efforts, Henry is still Chris' favourite SOB...

Lost Hemisphere Radio ep8: Hordes MkII Primal

2010-08-05T21:20:00.003-04:00

With the release of Hordes MkII: Primal, those of us who enjoy getting all feral and beastly on the tabletop finally get the update we've been waiting for in oh-so-pretty full colour splendiforousness.

Join Gdaybloke and MenothJohn as we speculate wildly about the fiction, the map, the possibilities for new factions, and wade through the factions, adoring the art and postulating on just which models most tickle our fancy.

As always, swing by the blog at http://losthemisphere.com, joins us on the forums, and generally have a good time. Pie for all!

Lost Hemisphere Radio ep7: Retribution of Scyrah

2010-07-22T10:34:00.004-04:00

Yes, Ladies and Gentlemen, it's time to finally look back at where Warmachine MkII really started - the Retribution of Scyrah. Gdaybloke's back from vacation, MenothJohn's still dashingly handsome, and our guest this week? Well, we kept him from chewing on the furniture, at least until we'd finished recording.

Ride with us as we discuss some of the new releases, speculate briefly on those flying things in the top right corner of the Legion book's cover art, and dive headfirst into Ios to discuss the history of the reclusive nation, Kaelyssa's mage hunter strike force swarm, and even talk about getting some use out of the not-overly-popular Nayl.

Lost Hemisphere Radio ep6: Mercenaries

2010-07-08T05:00:00.000-04:00

What happens when Gdaybloke takes a week off for a vacation? MenothJohn steams ahead anyway! Forces of Warmachine: Mercenaries has been released, and dagnabbit, the lack of an Aussie isn't going to stop LHR from charging on in all its niftiness!

Join MenothJohn and his TWO special guests as they try to combine forces to counteract the loss of the sexiest voice in Warmachine podcasting.

Lost Hemisphere Radio Ep5: Terraining It Up

2010-06-25T23:46:00.004-04:00

Almost two hours of chattery and ramblification on scenario boards, terrain, and coordinating events with your FLGS! Feel free to fire up Free Time Black Hole episode 7 to check out the maps and read along as we look at a handful of particularly awesome scenario boards with special guest CaptainSpud.
Zombies attacking two armies as they tried to hide in the same farmhouse?
Objectives in the middle of a frozen lake that's rapidly cracking?
One little bag of treasure hidden in a clustered townscape?
We got that.

Join John and Chris and two (two!) special guests as they discuss the brand spankin' new Forces of Warmachine: Cryx book, and marvel at the dizzying array of background noises!

Mysterious heavy breathing! Cat on a piano! Baby babble!
Oh, and we just may have achieved the most in-depth discussion of the pros and cons of Cephalyx ever to be recorded. Wacky floating dudes in PVC longcoats!

Welcome back! Time for some more Lost Hemisphere Radio shenanigans. We can't spend all our time blogging over at losthemisphere.com can we?? Pffft, sure we can.

Time for another injection of Lost Hemisphere goodness. I'm sure, like all loyal Lost, you've been dutifully reading the blog at losthemisphere.com on a daily basis, but we're more than happy to let you have another audible taste of our special brand of insanity.

This time we take a brief look at the Khador book and theme lists with the help of Rich "Orcasaurus" Godwaldt, and we discuss the difficulties of roleplaying Menites in a heroic setting, and talk about the possibility of homebrewing something based on the Dogs In The Vineyard RPG.
