Author: Hobby Night in Canada February 25, 2019 Duration: 1:45:24

The band is back together again, so that means it's time for some post-LVO chat! There's a section on scratch-building terrain sandwiched in between Steve and Ward's LVO rundown and a discussion about painting to a rubric for best presentation. As usual, we have some strong feels about that.


Gather around the table with five friends who’ve been rolling dice and pushing miniatures across maps for longer than they’d probably care to admit. Hobby Night in Canada is a weekly conversation from the Great White North, rooted in the shared, sometimes expensive, always passionate world of tabletop gaming. This isn’t a formal review show or a strategy deep-dive, though you’ll certainly hear plenty of opinions on new games and classic titles. Instead, it’s the sound of the hobby itself: the banter between turns, the triumphant (or disastrous) dice rolls, and the slow, often messy progress of painting a new set of figures. You’ll hear about the projects that actually get finished and the many that don’t, the thrill of a well-earned victory, and the camaraderie that comes with a shared pastime. The tone is unfiltered and conversational, matching the relaxed atmosphere of a real game night, complete with the occasional colorful language that comes with it. Tune into this podcast for genuine, unscripted moments from a group of dedicated hobbyists who are just as likely to celebrate a brilliant tactical move as they are to laugh at their own spectacular failures. It’s about the experience-the paint, the plastic, the cardboard, and the people.
