Episode 9 - Jurassic Plastic

Welcome to Brainwaves a fortnightly podcast bringing you the best in Tabletop Gaming News. On this Episode Iain, Jamie and Sam cover monopolising the Grim Dark of the Future, withcy goings on in RPGs along with a whole host of other news. In our Brainstorm segment we discuss the rise and rise of large miniature focused kickstarters and whether they are always as luxurious as they seem. The podcast gets interrupted once more by a transmission from Bunker 42.
