In our Bunker Hill episode we were honored to speak with Karl Warner, the chief of education programming for the Army Heritage & Education Center in Carlisle. Today we're bringing you an extended bonus outtake where he talks about how Stephen Ambrose researched a specific scene depicted in Band of Brothers. It's a fantastic insight and a great example of the kind of primary source material available to the public in the archive.

Over on our Patreon page we shared our Gettysburg video, filmed 12 years ago. We're hoping it provides a little inspiration for you to film a game at home with your friends. There's a learning curve (clearly) and you can see our first attempt was not nearly as polished as our videos today. That's ok! This video is now a brilliant piece of club history and part of our scrapbook of memories. 

Start building your own scrapbook and jump in with our 2025 Quick Strike challenge! Below, you'll find an even OLDER photo--this one from 2005. Twenty years ago, we were playing the Longstreet's attack on the Union left flank at Gettysburg. 15mm scale figures, Fire & Fury rules, and some pretty basic terrain. Back then, we weren't filming any video footage of games. We should have! It's a shame we didn't start until much later. 

Happy July 4th! If you enjoyed our Vicksburg "what if" operational game, you'll probably also enjoy the full length debrief discussion. Join Keith, Mark, and Miles for an in-depth chat about the game and what they could have done differently. Do Miles and Mark think they could have managed to win WITHOUT Longstreet's troops? Why didn't Keith go for Jackson? All those questions will be answered right here on the Free Stuff page. Thanks for stopping by the LWTV website to visit us.

This week on YouTube, we brought you along as we crashed Alan Perry's game room to check out his amazing garage set up. But we also had the chance to sit down and talk to Alan and Michael for a wide-ranging chat. Parts of that interview appear in this week's YouTube video, but we wanted to upload a great bonus segment here on the 'Free Stuff' page. This segment is all about campaigns--how to run them, how the Perry's play them, and tips for improving your tabletop campaigns at home. And if you're wondering what these guys are playing on that lovely, 28mm Napoleonic table in Alan's game room....it's "Valour & Fortitude," of course! It's a free Napoleonic game we've been talking about on our channel and you can check it out for free right here.

​Who was available? Ranger Nathan talks about the would-be contenders and how Robert E. Lee soon found himself tabbed for a field command. WATCH NOW!

We're officially wrapping up our Tombstone series with an in-depth discussion about the historical firearms used in the Shootout at the OK Corral. Chal and Tony sit down to talk about black powder weapons, one of the few Old West personalities who was known to make time for target practice, why Doc Holliday dropped his shotgun, and much more. Join us for a bonus video, available only on our Free Stuff page! Thanks for joining us.
