## Resource

Welcome to Joshing Around in Eä! We're just three mates drinking student cider and chatting about Conquest...This episode, we give our first impressions on First Blood 3.0. After having played a couple of games, we have misplayed pretty much every rule and gotten a decent feel for it.The TL;DR version is that we liked it - listen in to find out why, and some lessons we've already started to learn. You'll get our thoughts on narrative play, the state of the current ruleset and how it sits in relation to The Last Argument of Kings. As always, thank you ever so much for being a fantastic listener to our podcast. If you have any questions you'd like us to wrestle with, or if you have a drink to contribute that we can audibly enjoy, please do get in touch at joshingaroundinea@gmail.com. Also, please consider purchasing our book, The Tabletop Miniature Wargamer's Handbook: An ideal companion for the modern wargamer. Find the ⁠⁠Amazon link⁠⁠ below:⁠⁠ https://amzn.eu/d/5dOUmlZ⁠⁠
