Absolutely correct: back in the day, we were 'gamers'...which meant video games, board games, RPG games, TT wargames, etc., etc. All types were loved and appreciated for what they brought to the table. Some we liked more than others, but we appreciated (and played) them all.

Dude is a legend, great interview.

Great interview 👍🏼

Thank you for making this happen! Big McCullough fan!

Love this interview, thanks for making the time for this! Joe is amazing. I was thrilled by each discussion topic.

OK, with a supplement for Silver Bayonet being written by Ash (GMG games) I suspect a definite narritive feel to it - guess SIlver Bayonet is moving into my 'purchase when the funds allow' list (i.e, when there is another Osprey sale).

Great interview

Very cool interview 🎉

That was such an awesome interview! Really enjoyed the casual chat format, and you nailed it as far as an interviewer guiding the conversation goes. Good ole Joe McCullough seems like a great guy to talk about pretty much anything with too! Dude needs to stop taking my money, though 😂

Really dug your process questions. That was cool to hear

Okay, making a movie about Frostgrave sounds like an awesome idea. While I haven't played the game I started reading about it and about the game's lore (which I gather is mostly created by the players), watching videos quite a bit, and I love the world it's set in and the stories that came out of it.

That was a really cool interview. I look forward to more expansions of Rangers of Shadow Deep and Stargrave

Well how cool is that? Very awesome interview. 😁👍

Great interview. thx! As a huge J McC fan I think an RPG set in the world of The Silver Bayonet would be amazing.

The 5 Parsecs/5 Leagues campaign structure does have a narrative arc that drives the subsequent table rolls. In some ways it mirrors some of the campaign arc supplements Joe has written for Stargrave but with a bit more randomization. But I can totally see from a design perspective where one would not want to design random tables.

I’d love to have a bat phone to Joe. I’ve never written a story and I’m in deep building a fantasy based skirmish game.

Now you are best buddies with the amazing Joe McCullough can you influence him to make an asian themed game system. SamuraiGrave or a 7 kingdoms table skirmish game or just something set in the far east. It would be nice to see a project that is less centred on Europen themes.

a hero interviewing a hero! +10exp for both of you!

Great video! Joe McCullough is a legend! If you need a leatherworker for the Frostgrave movie, give me a shout (like yourself, I actually work in film and TV too hahaha)

Would be really interesting to know what Joe thinks of: - 1) Infinity? 2) Brawlmachine? Infinity is so different to a lot of wargames, but has the d20 and the responiveness (and the lethality!) that Joe seems to like. And Brawlmachine seems to me the BEST incarnation of Warmachine - perhaps what the game could always have been as they severely cut the points but also banned some of the most powerful casters in the game to even out the power, and for all the issues with PP the fundamental game system is still good imo.

I’m getting Frostgrave. What a twist!

Stargrave is one of my favorite skirmish games. I've really noticed a push in both RPGs and skirmish games to not only simplify rules and distill them down to what is needed to facilitate fast and fun play, but to explore really different genres and worlds. Especially in indie style RPGs and miniature games.

Silver Bayonet is sounding more interesting. So many rulesets, so little time and money.

Great interview until the last bit.

3 hours of interviews in 72 hours............. I KILL YOU!!! (now I have got the Achmed off my chest) Actually, I'm not entirely sure what to say, both were good, but for different reasons. I think the interview you controlled here was better than the one you gave, but I would chalk that more up to being in the direct "public eye" rather than anything actually being wrong. I think there is a certain amount of control as an interviewer rather than an interviewee you find more comfortable, and that is much of a stylistic decision, or imperative, choose which one fits better. The Director Vs the Actor? I don't know, there is a fan around here covered in brown goo, we'll see what sticks😂😆 I do feel you interviewing and having creative control is a far better format........... at this stage simply because that seems to be what you are more familiar with. I have no doubt you are capable of getting to the other side of things. As for the content. Fantastic questions, fantastic answers, throw in some hot wings and you are on a roll (or perhaps some of your brothers tapped kegs.........) Fantashtiq (hic)
