Welcome to the third episode of the G*M*S Magazine podcast.
This is a different episode, though.
In this episode we have just one item. An interview with Jaye Sonia, the writer and creator of Rhune, Dawn of Twilight.
I usually try to have a review, and one more interview, but this one went on so well and Jaye is such an interesting guy that I felt it would be a disservice to both you and him to cut the interview short.
There is also very good advice on how to get your hands on a $20 voucher from Amazon every month if you’re a registered user and comment on any of the items on the magazine.
Hope you enjoy the podcast and please keep the feedback coming!

Welcome to the second episode of the G*M*S Magazine.
This is the non enhanced version of the podcast. It will play in your iPad and any other MP3 player more easily.
The G*M*S Magazine podcast brings you reviews, interviews and opinion pieces about the world of role playing games, board games, card games and wargames.
In this episode we have Jeff Mechlinsky, the creator and mind behind Age Past, a great new role playing game with a slick and simple mechanics that will keep you very happy for a long time. Jeff talks to Paco Garcia Jaen about the origins, the mechanics, thinking behind and future plans for the magnificent looking game.
If you don’t want to wait to listen to the podcast to find out about this game, head now to the Age Past website and you’ll be having a great time!
Our opinion piece this week is based on the recently published article “Judge a book by (more than) its cover”. A bit of a rant on how publishing badly designed books is no longer acceptable with the current computer and software technologies available to everyone
We also have a great review of Survive: Escape from Atlantis, one of the recent releases from Stronghold Games. Dale Medhurst, Kingsley Sayers and Paco Garcia Jaen take a close and practical look at this game and put it through its paces. Will it live up to scrutiny, though?
Enjoy the podcast and let us know what you think!
