I've been witnessing with great enjoyment Rodney Smith (host of Watch It Played) slowly falling in the COIN series rabbit hole for the past couple of months. This game series, created by Volko Runkhe, is one of the most popular wargame systems today. I invited Rodney to come on the channel and discuss his journey into GMT's COIN series, what he likes, what he struggles with and get some tips on how to learn and teach COIN games.
