Pulp Gamer Inside Track

It is with great pleasure that we were able to talk to Jeremy Stomberg. With Jeremy’s love for games, he is a natural fit for marketing at Fantasy Flight Games. We were able to spend some time with him during the last day of Gen Con to talk about Fantasy Flight and some of their treasures.

Tannhouser was talked about at good length. It is an alternate history of 1949 where World War 1 has not ended. Jeremy compares and contrasts it to the coming release of Dust, where World War II hasn’t ended and Nazi expeditions are uncovering some remarkable technology making the world a much different and very violent place.

From one game to another, the Mutant Chronicles live on. This time, as a collectible miniatures game from Fantasy Flight Games. Its set in a dark and brutal future. Megacorporations war across the terraformed planets of the solar system for resources. This game has caught a lot of attention and is expecting to be on shelves very soon.

The big games that had people lining up from around the corner at Gen Con were Tide of Iron and StarCraft. Like all of the big games by Fantasy Flight, these are an impressive armful of quality components.

We also had the honor during today’s show of announcing our acceptance of the Parsec Award for Best Gaming Podcast. We wish to thank the everyone involved with the Parsec Awards for the recognition, a fabulous ceremony, and their contribution to the podcasting community.
