Nice little interview. I think you guys asked all the right questions.

Greg-have fun with Aeronautica! Don't get hooked. That came out right when I was ending my time in the hobby for awhile and it nearly sucked me right in. I never owned t but a few of my friends bought in big and it was really great.

Glad you enjoyed the interview!

I've been telling Greg about AI as well. I regularly played BFG at the old Seattle GW Bunker when it hit, and there was a lot of excitement there about it. However, it seems like it was a "one and done" kind of book, and never really went anywhere after its initial release (somewhere around '07 or '08 IIRC).

I'm about halfway through the podcast, but it's great so far.  I like the idea of having the TSF tokens on magnets.  My grandfather was a scout pilot in the pacific and your mention of the images showing the catapults made me think a set on magnets including at least the same class as my grandfather's ship, the U.S.S. Chester, would make a great birthday present for my dad.

Thanks for all the call-outs Greg, but your and the other guys' painting is easily surpassing mine these days.  My sea monkeys and I are honored to be your Nemesis!  :)
