Intensify Forward Firepower Episode 10: A New Host smashes through your shielding and launches a boarding party as special guest Michael Gernes (the producer of Star Wars Armada at FFG) heads to the bridge of the Flesh Star Destroyer. Joining him there are, as always Drunk Tarkin, Dano, Easy, and Steve Skyshuffler - not that he can pronounce it. In Episode 10, the guys chat with Michael on the design process behind Armada before getting him in front of the interrogation droid in an attempt to extract information on future Armada releases. The episode is rounded out when Michael joins the crew to talk about Easy's squadron-led victory, DT's hard-learned lessons, and Skyshuffler's use of Garm's Gups.

My favorite part so far is your official designation as the Premier Armada Podcast.

(and also the only, but hey we're gonna run with it!)

I imagine you're going to still milk it for all it is worth.

I know I would.

vv - It's good advertisement, tongue in cheek or not.

I'm not really sure how to respond to that, since I can't read sarcasm on the internet.

But yeah man, so far these $0s of dollars we've got comin' in have been really great!

Great job guys. Keep em coming!

Some great spoilers too ;)

Sometimes less is more, right? I'm thinking not THIS time as well.

. . . Must. . . Listen. . . To. . .

This is a great thing to wake up to in the morning.

OMG that new song is hilarious.

That. . . Intro. . . Leave it to R1H1A.

IFF making it mist lightly with that $0 compensation package!

Sippin' on Bud Light all night!

I love the fact he talks about sifting through information. . . Makes the Navy Intelligence Specialist in me happy. . .

. . . To squee. . . Or not to squee. . . I can't believe I got up there. . .

Ohhh the fabled IFF TeamSpeak. . . One day. . .

R1H1 Rocks!!!

"GenCon Special" - I think I was watching HBO's Ballers with The Rock... I submitted the list as "Shotgun Brawlers" to pun off Ballers. :)

Great intro song!

Song is hilarious (good job R1H4). And the rest of the show was great, also. The interrogation got a little tense when you were asking Mr. Gernes about the apparent lack of value for squadrons right now... but I'm glad you brought that up. Squadrons do seem a little underwhelming right now, and I hope the FFG folks are looking into it.

Thanks and great show!

I'm about 1/3rd of the way through interesting stuff so far.

@Gads well, we had to ask about it or risk our journalistic integrity! However, we're asking about the controversy and don't NECESSARILY think it's entirely true. We're pretty divided on the issue. I, myself, a huge "all ship" advocate am starting to think of ways to get fighters back on my table, and I think that can happen without sacrificing the flexibility I enjoy.
