AOWdu 115.1 Random chats with Tony V Oct 18, 2022

Show notes

With the dataslate looming (and overdue) I was unwilling to put out any game content such as retrospectives or such and have it invalidated immediately! So instead i reached out to AOWdu's most faithful man of violence Anthony Vanella! We talk a fair bit about WTC, some of the psychology therein, game theory and meta stuffs, it's very free form and i didn't have a single note written to guide us! Hope it's a fun time
