Thu, 9 October 2008 The next show is slightly delayed because I ran home to visit my
family. But we should have a new show soon. We will be HOPEFULLY
moving to a weekly show instead of bi-weekly. In addition we will be
tightening the format and maybe even getting a few business allies! We
call them that instead of sponsors! I know... crazy! The site will also be going through a few changes in the next few months. It will serve not only as a podcast site but also a center for my Game Design and 3d art projects. That's a bit down the line though. Our new "tighter" hour format will be as follows: -Big News of the Week from a "Tactics" standpoint. -Tactical Discussion on a specific topic. -In depth unit discussion of one or two random units. -Battle Report (shorter form). -Rant of the Week The changes are all done to make the podcast over all more professional. News is self explanatory I think. But we will focus on how this new information deals with specific armies. This will probably be short every week. I'll simply link the full article in the show notes for people to read on their own. Tactical discussion will deal with topics like "Unit Footprints" and "Unit formations". Things on the table top that really help make us all better tacticians. The "pacing" show has been very popular and I think this needs to really be part of the overall podcast. Unit discussion will focus around one or two units and how to best utilize them in an army. Depending on the unit we could cover one (tactical squad) or two (sentinels) in a week. Battle Reports will be recorded in a shorter form. While I liked the two podcast system I felt that information was just being lost because to much time went between recordings. Instead we will discuss all the same things in one session. Rant of the Week... well it turns out people actually like it when I rant... who knew! So the end of our show every week will be a rant... or an interview once we get things really swinging. So our new show format promises to be much stronger and more professional. We are going to shy away from doing any more "codex reviews" because other podcasts do that all the time. We want to cover more armies in a week so it is more likely we will talk about something individual listeners want to hear about. If the battle report is between Eldar and Necrons the Tactics will be about Deep Strike and the units discussed might be Assault Squads and Seraphim. It all ties in together but deals with as many armies as possible. Ok I've rambled on enough. Look for the new show format soon. Our update days will probably shift form wednesday too. Maybe mondays instead! Category: general -- posted at: 2:49 AM Comments[5] |
