After that we talk for a short time about Under the Lily Banners, the game from GMT. After that, we talk about Iron Brigade, an American Civil War miniature ruleset. Then we talk about how to make cheap man made wargaming terrain for your battlefield. After that we have a shootout, or a one sided volley, concerning plastic wargaming miniatures. All wrapped up in a 50 minute podcast. Just wait for the next one!

Thanks for listening!

This is the shortest episode of Noisemaker yet. But still, we cover some good ground. We examine some news, we take a look at what will come next in the podcast, and we also make mention of some rules and games that we will review fairly soon. Then, we have a special historical treat, along with a review of the old classic game "Wooden Ships, Iron Men" from Avalon Hill, way back in the '70's. It's only 38 minutes, but we'll make sure to make up for that on future casts!

First Segment : USS Constitution vs. HMS Java historical overview...

Second Segment : Interview with Ryan, Bert's long time friend, concerning wargaming vs. eurogaming.

Third Segment : Bert talking about his new ship game, Sail and Shot.

Reader Note: I'm actually thinking about trying to put this game into a book that I'm writing about wargames. Please do not "publish" thse rules. Use them if you want to try a neat, quick ship combat game.
