Rolling Dice with God

12/07/2023

There's new a version of Warhammer 40K out, and hosts Dom & Tom got together to try it out last night. They also took the chance to chat about possibilities for the future and maybe a new edition of RDwG. The thinking is to explore the possibility of making the set-up a collective rather than just a double-act - hopefully meaning more content overall while not necessarily requiring so much commitment from any particular individual. So, if you're someone of faith who is also into games that involve dice-rolling (whether wargames, TTRPG, or boardgames), and who might like to help contribute to conversations about how those things overlap, then give us a shout!

Okay, so it's the last Friday in the month. That means we should have an episode out today. Alas, we haven't. The reality is that co-hosts Tom & Dom are both somewhat like these two models and not at 100% for a variety of reasons. That means no recording has been possible - a prime example of rolling 1s real life! We're really sorry about this, but rest assured we will be back and looking to bring more reflections on faith and tabletop gaming as soon as possible. In the meantime, we pray your rolls are doing better than ours currently!

We know things have been somewhat quiet here over the last few weeks. The truth is it's been rather quiet on the hobby front for both our co-hosts, for a variety of reasons. However, has now got his Tau finished. And do you know what's also finished? Our next episode, which will go live tomorrow!

Latest on host 's shelves are a couple of Tactical Drones for his . Latest on the podcast shelf is Episode 2 - go check it out if you haven't already!

Episode 2 is out there! Listen to it on Podomatic (see our bio) or on numerous other podcast sources - if we're not on your favourite let us know and we'll see what we can do. This month we explore the fact that tabletop games, even wargames, aren't just about who wins and who loses. They can be about the fun of simply rolling dice, and about telling stories. This latter point in particular leads to some reflecting on how storytelling matters not just on the tabletop but in life and faith too.

So, what have we been up to since the last episode? *Loads* of stuff - including much hobbying! Playing both in events and casually, painting a variety of stuff, getting delivery of Kickstarter terrain. And, of course, recording a new episode, which is out tomorrow!
