Cheated Fates Radio
About the Podcast
Cheated Fates Radio is a positive, upbeat cast focusing on all aspects of the game of Malifaux by Wyrd Miniatures™. Hosts Joe and Adam have been avid Malifaux players involved in the game since it broke into the miniature wargaming scene in 2009. Each episode features unique topics covering tactics, rules and Malifaux fiction. Claiming to be the longest continually running Malifaux podcasts, the show’s goal is to excite and inspire all player types; from the Iron Painters to the Avatars on the battlefield the show provides a unique perspective.
The shows format is that of friends reminiscing about recent games over a few beers. Hobby, Announcements and Gaming are covered as part of a the HAG™ (Mama Zoraida would be proud). Topics that are hot in the worldwide Malifaux scene as well as a dedicated rule of the episode are discussed. Occasional guest hosts from Wyrd Miniatures™, others players, Tournament Organizers and Wyrd Henchman will stop by and discuss new rules, events, models, and releases.
…And remember when you don’t have time to Cheat Fate, listen to Cheated Fates Radio!

Cheated Fates Radio Podcast – Episode 6: Then There Were Three
Joe and Adam are back with a new episode. In this episode we talk about upcoming events and what we’ve been up to in a very open format. We introduce a new addition to the show, Arash Afghahi (@Arash_Suri). Our main topic is a little bit all over the place, but we do discuss what Arash is planning for NoVA and how well we expect him to do. We also spend a fair amount of time lamenting what we think needs a few changes in the game. And last but not least we weave in a few comments about the Wave 5 models/upgrades. Hope you enjoy and as always look forward to any feedback.
