History to Hobby Episode 7: Mr. Steal Yo’ Green Stuff - Kit-bashing Chat with Scale History SLC
Jordan from Scale History SLC joins Evan and Ben to talk all about kit-bashing WWII in 28mm. From the ordinary to the exotic, Jordan is on a mission to never repeat a pose. Here’s the real question, can Evan trap hobby butterfly Ben before he’s also kit-bashing Folglore Paratroopers? Ben is so young and impressionable after all… Scale History SLC YouTube — youtube.com/@scalehistoryslc Iron Dice Gaming — irondice.org

Drew joins the cast to chat about the build process of the wintery Senonchamps board. Terrain board building in all its glory!

History to Hobby Episode 5: Pivot like Rommel - Iron Dice Eyes the Dyle
Evan and Ben are back and much to no one’s surprise the IDG gears have shifted from late war to early war. The crew uses the episode to do a shakedown of the new recording software while musing on the French and German conflict in 1940. The origins of the new plan are revealed and prattle about early war armor abounds.  Check out Evan and Ben’s early war forces at Irondice.org

History to Hobby Episode 4: A Squabble at Senonchamps - Adepticon 2025
In Episode 4 Evan and Ben recount the “rigorous” playtesting of the “A Stand at Senonchamps” Chain of Command scenario and the effect of the streamlined forces. They also reflect on the startling lack of memory surrounding their convention games players’ names. Apparently tank and airplane statistics take up a lot of brain space. All jokes aside the boys divulge the excellent time they had hosting two of the Chain of Command games at Adepticon 2025.   For more History to Hobby and Iron Dice Gaming shenanigans check out Irondice.org!

History to Hobby Episode 2: Star Spangled Banter - Evan's American Bulge Force
Join Evan and Ben as they dive into TO&Es and the history books as they chat about Evan’s American Task Force Browne.
