Dan I have a very interesting idea for a show!

Really enjoyed this episode, actually upgraded my PC to experience “Hell let loose” myself!
I hope you don't mind my question, but just out of curiosity and transparency, was this a sponsored episode?
Bob can I Venmo you money for a haircut?

Didn't you release this back on the 5th?
Most fun I've had in Hell let Loose was firing a Russian artillery piece in defense of Stalingrad with the help of an observer. At least in the Australian servers, Max's comment about appealing to an older demographic rings true. I've noticed a higher proportion of 'older' sounding players than in other shooters or even team-based shooters. Typically they are the squad leaders or commanders, giving a stereotypical 'grizzled-veteran' vibe to the squad dynamic
Not ever giving up board wargames, but I will check out Hell Let Loose.

Oh man I need to listen to this. I love Hell Let Loose

Oh snap, this dropped as I'm painting 15mm Russian infantry. Well timed.
I strongly recommend Hell let Loose
