The Surgeon is in! In this episode we dissect some Blood & Plunder forces, chatting about potential weaknesses and ways to improve or modify. We take a look at three forces submitted from community members:

1. Native American Creek Land 200pts
2. Spanish Sea 150pts
3. English Militia Land 150pts

We also chat about hobby projects, recount tales of glory and shame, review upcoming events, and look at some of Firelock's upcoming projects.

Have Amphibious games of Blood & Plunder been hard to balance or set up well? Join Garrett, Dan, and Joseph for a discussion on making amphibious games fun and balanced in this episode.
Other segments include:
Hobby Desk
Tales of Glory & Shame
Adepticon Prep
Peek Behind the Curtain
Painting Contest Update
and, shamelessly stolen from Tales of the Sale, New Year's Resolutions (henceforth to be referred to as "Plunderlutions").

The big errata episode is here! The core rulebook is getting some corrections, updates, and balance changes and we're here to guide you through everything!
With the whole podcasting crew on, we hit all the hot topics, breeze through the little fixes, detail any rules changes, and reflect on our experiences playtesting some of these new rules and pontificate on how we see this update affecting the meta in 2025.
We also recount Tales of Shame & Glory, review our painting projects, talk about Dan's piratical experience at the Texas Renaissance Faire, and peek behind the curtain at some of the active projects we're working on for Firelock Games.

It's a packed episode!

Garrett, Fernando and Joseph are back with more Blood & Plunder news, updates, and a big conversation about playing "convention" size 3-10 player games of Blood & Plunder.

In this episode, Garret, Joseph, and Daniel talk about their Top 3 Favorite Sea Factions for Blood and Plunder. There are some sudden twists, as well as tactics that many players may not have realized are possible!

In this episode Garrett, Dan, and Fernando go over their top 3 favorite Blood and Plunder land factions.

In this bonus episode, Joseph sits down with Bartosz, Commander of the Native American team in the 2024 Summer of Plunder. Since Bartosz wasn't able to get in on the big roundtable discussion, we caught up to him later and got to chat about how the campaign went from the Native American team's perspective.

In this special episode, Joseph and Jason host a roundtable discussion of the 2024 Summer of Plunder with (nearly) all the Commanders and 2nd in Commands for the 6 nations participating in the campaign this year.
Each commander is asked how the campaign felt for them, what they focused on in their national chats, and why players should fight for them next year.
Then we have a bit of open time for interaction and review of the diplomacy aspect of the campaign before touching on some possible changes for Summer of Plunder, 2025.
Congratulations to the Dutch, led by Matthew Doerr this year for winning the campaign this year!

Thanks to all our special guests for coming on!
