Joel and Greg sit down to talk about the Mission Critical Narrative event (back in May), the upcoming 2 day narrative event at Renegade Open, and talk about the perceived power of killer hackers and some nuance of hacking in the game. Greg also discusses a bit of StarCo as he has been running a very heavy hacking focused list.  Renegade Open Registration Anthemusa Outpost Narrative Facebook Event Page Contact us: Joel@rempresence.com Greg@rempresence.com

A long time ago (last fall) in a galaxy far far away (Iowa), Joel met up with Mr. Jeremy Kinser and James Chauvaux to record a little episode at the Iowa Incident. This ones a little long, but its definitely an interesting listen.

Coming back to the world with another episode! We're a bit behind the times, but something is better than nothing! We discuss the info out of LVO and CanCon regarding "upcoming" releases, the new Dire Foes box, and Druze Bayram Security. Some of the info is now outdated, but hopefully the conversation is still worthwhile!

We've been Immobilized for some time, but we finally made our reset roll! In this episode (recorded about a month or so ago) Joel talks a bit about Iowa Incident before we get into discussing a bunch of random stuff.

After some technical difficulties with recording, Greg and Joel return with a shorter than usual episode. We discuss the Cube Jager, Bit and Kiss with their new home of CA, single combat group lists, and some other random riff raff. There is still a small amount of background noise (which we're working on, I promise) but it shouldn't be that noticeable. 

This episode, we go over our initial reactions to the changes in Season 9 of ITS. We also talk a bit about piece trading, irregular orders, and try something new and go over the deployment and first turn of one of our recent games. Basil (Joel's dog) also gets in on the conversation a little.  Contact us: Joel@rempresence.com Greg@rempresence.com   Show Notes: Renegade Open Iowa Incident Mk4 Baltimore Brawl Arizona Armageddon 

Joel and Greg get back in the saddle after our Triad becomes a Duo with the loss of Sean. We discuss some game theory and tactics as well as some stuff from the Gencon and Interplanetary seminars as well as chat about the future of the cast.    Notes: Renegade Open Limited Insertion Podcast White Noise Podcast

No real show notes breakdown today folks! Joel is away in Europe, something about a foot massage for his wife and then he was gone!  Twinfinity is in the books and was an amazing experience, apparently both for people who played in it as well as for Sean. Today we invite our friend Tor Swanson into "the studio"(now that it's not full of Twinfinity stuff) to talk about his Twinfinity experience with Sean and Greg.  We also spend quite some time talking about a number of our great sponsors, as well as about the event from Sean's perspective.   I'm sure that we will revisit this topic upon Joel's triumphant return, assuming Trump lets him back into the country.

This one got caught up halfway through the editing process, because Sean is incredibly busy with life, work, getting ready for his brothers wedding, and Twinfinity(which is in one month!). To that end, I'm not going to give a notes rundown for this episode, because I just want to get it published! Topics covered: Twinfinity 2017 Selling out! Joel and Greg taking over responsibilities for Infinity at The Renegade Open 2017 Gutier Meme Contest Some final thoughts on Adepticon "Affinity and Bane" models Joel wraps up on his Tohaa love, and how to deal with Tohaa Warning: LOTS OF MORAT CHAT!!!

First we took him out, wooed and plied him with sushi and alcohol in the way that a true suitor should.  Then, once he was nice and lacking in personal boundries and faculties, we got him to agree to sit in front of a microphone with us! VICTORY! In this very special episode of Remote Presence, we are joined by two very special guests: Carlos "Bostria" Llauger Lorenzo James Chauvaux of the Lhost podcast We get to talking about quite a bit of things.  We ask Carlos about his role at Corvus Belli, and his history within the company.  We ask about the process that goes into the creation of new units for Infinity: The Game.  We expand upon the role that data collection plays in helping game manufacturers shape their game and releases.   We absolutely do not talk about release dates, new units or sectorials, or anything like that.  Our goal in this conversation was to focus on the company and game that we love, and to try to glean some insight into its dark inner workings. Thank you again to James for sitting do

WARNING: We get kind of crass, explicit, and downright rude in this podcast. Would you like to know what happens when four Infinity podcasters from three different Infinity podcasts all come together at a convention, consume adult beverages, and record the ensuing madness? How about if we add in special guest painters and Warcors?  What about if we also give you a live studio audience? SHEER MADNESS!!!  This is Part One of our ongoing series: "Infinity @ Adepticon: The darkness stares into you"   Dramatis Personae: Sean Poeschl, Remote Presence Joel Vaughan, Remote Presence Tom Schadle, Mayacast James Chauvaux, Lhost Angelina Curka, RiotGrrl Painting Tommy Back, Studio Ultramega Painting William Thompson, Iowa Warcor Live studio audience:  Jay and Sam from Warsen.al Tim Toolen Nestor Medina I know I am forgetting someone... We will be back later with Part 2, which includes what I suppose you could call "an interview" with Jay from Warsen.al

Welcome back to Remote Presence: An Infinity Podcast! Today we start by talking about the new releases for December and January and move into a conversation about dedicated ARO pieces and board control. We read some listener emails about transitioning away from Ariadna to one of the more "high tech" factions as well as one on the topic of model proxies in ITS. We also give some information on Twinfinity 2017 Registration, which is coming up in just FIVE DAYS!  SO MUCH EXCITE!!!

Here's a short outtake recorded towards the end of Episode 18 wherein we gripe about the holidays. Don't worry, we also talk about a game.  It just so happens, that game is not Infinity!  It's Zombicide! Seriously though, if you haven't checked Zombicide out, go do so.  It's pretty damned rocking fun.

Ok, I was drawing a blank on naming this episode.  Sorry for that! In this offering, we discuss a few things: Our somewhat "disjointed" last episode(even though it didn't seem to bother anyone else, it bothered us!) The eternal topic of "Expensive and Survivable" versus "More dudes" Lack of Buzz/Buzz around AP Rifles/Breaker Weapons and BTS. The Renegade Open 2016 ITS Tournament I'm keeping this description fairly bare bones today, because I also have a short After Hours episode to release right after this.   As always, we hope that you enjoy this slightly shorter episode.  We will be trying to get one more in right before the Holidays, but if that does not work out we will be right back with you immediately following New Years in early January!

Hey all!  Don't be a... This time around we spend some time elaborating on what we went into last week, because BOY OH BOY DID WE GET SOME FEEDBACK ON IT! ;) A lot of it was due to either misunderstanding our message, or us not conveying it as well as we should.  A lot of the misunderstandings came as a result of what we feel is "baggage" from other games and play environments.  It lead to some great chats with listeners on the subject of "being competitive" so we wanted to spend a little more time elaborating on what we think that is: putting your best foot forward in giving your opponent a good game, while still trying to win the game and not being a dick while doing it. That is kind of a mouthful, but it sums it up about the best way I can think.  In doing this, we kind of re-affirm the purpose of our podcast, and what it means to us as podcasters. We talk a little about winding down our Escalation league, and about Community building a little. We also go into the concept of "Rules that win you games" and
