This week we're talking about the current Kickstarter from High Level Games, a game called Army Men, and we're joined by the head of High Level Games, Josh Heath (also of Werewolf: the Podcast and the OpCast), and the lead designer for the game, Neil Litherland.
Army Men is a 5e driven game about playing in the world of those classic molded figures we all played with, and can still find so easily to this day. The system has been tweaked and prodded for the setting, and having seen the manuscript, the game just looks like awesomely good fun!
