Author: The Hobby Guys February 16, 2026 Duration: 1:28:46
In this episode Stef and Will discuss what makes and good (and equally bad) scenario for wargames, both for narrative play and competitive play. Also, Stef's been doing a lot more hobby, they have a round of "Yourhammer or Warhammer" and somehow both are shocked by Games Workshop's prices yet again...

For a fortnightly dose of paint, plastic, and playful competition, settle in with Hobby Guys Hobby Time. Hosts Stef and Will, two mates who've been deep in the hobby for years, use their shared microphone to chat about everything that makes tabletop wargaming so compelling. Their conversations are less a formal guide and more like eavesdropping on friends at a local gaming shop, covering the full spectrum from the meditative focus of painting a single miniature to the frantic energy of a tournament hall. You'll hear them dissect the creative puzzle of kitbashing, turning spare parts into something unique, and geek out over legendary events like the Golden Demon awards. Whether you're a seasoned general or just curious about dipping a brush into this world, this podcast offers a relatable and entertaining look at the passion projects, the frustrating mistakes, and the small triumphs that happen off the battlefield. Tune in every other Monday for honest talk, practical tips, and the kind of camaraderie that makes the hobby about more than just the game.
