If you haven’t seen the Crimson Skies table from Skirmishers Guild around the interwebs, you must be living under a rock! But that game board is about more than just looking pretty, it is at the heart of a gaming crossover.

Look, we know this episode will offend half of you, and the other half will ask blindly “what is the big deal”. Nothing polarizes people more than a discussion of AI these days - and we expect no less. But if you can put your personal feelings aside and listen to what one man is doing in the Gaming space with AI, you just might find yourself hating it a little less. (Okay, who are we kidding, you’re all going to cancel us after this episode!) And yes, the thumbnail was AI generated, did you really think Doug looks that good in person?
