They release every other monday. One of the better podcasts regarding regularity (and I bet it's Craig we have to thank rather than the two follicly challenged fools we listen to :p )

Ah-ha. It's up.

One thing I would have liked to cover better is tempo. My idea, that I don't think I conveyed right, was:

1) If you kick first, try to take away and score as fast as possible. If you've done it once, you can do it again. And besides, 1-1 at halftime, receiving, is better than 0-0 at halftime, and that's a success in my book. If you have a lead at halftime, you should try to score in 3-4 turns in the second half. 5-6 turns with a 2-score deficit is pretty much impossible, so you'll face a hurry-up offense or a demoralized opponent. They can go into kill mode ... but ... you're Orcs.

2) If you receive first, do an 8-turn grind. This doesn't have to be an OSPT, and doesn't have to take all 8 turns if your Cas machine is really going. If, say, you knock out a Dwarf Runner and both Blitzers in your first quarter of offense, score at will. Likewise, if your opponent has a reliable 1TTD mechanism, like a Skaven thing. But if your oppo has a good offense that can't reliably 1TTD, hold on for eight.

I don't want to say, "you should always hurry on O with Orcs." That wasn't my intent.

I am so glad they are going back through the 'Spotlight Team of the Week' and also finding new areas to talk about with the team.

Don't hold your breath. :lol:

Glad you guys enjoyed it! Matt did a great job and we hope to have more players from around the world on to give their ideas about the teams as we take our 2.0 tour through all the BB teams.

Thadrin is right - you can all thank Craig for the shows getting out in time! And while Pauly may be folically challenged, I am not. I'm bald!

I really enjoyed hearing mattgslater's thoughts on positioning and playing defence.

It helped crystallise some of the things I'd been reading, and I was able to apply some of those lessons recently to help me against opponents I'd been struggling with.

Thanks, Chance! Looking forward to it! I really was impressed by your second run through on Orcs. Gave me a few more tricks to try.
