Interviewing Jonathan.

Ever wonder what makes Jonathan tick? Listener Aaron Bostian turns the tables, takes the mic, and serves as host for this special episode.

Jonathan is in the hot seat while Aaron interviews him about his life and gaming. We hope you enjoy this peak behind the curtain.

Aaron’s Questions:

  • How did you specifically develop an interest in historical wargaming, especially with those 10mm tall figures?
  • Do you remember a particular moment when you saw a miniatures tabletop wargame for the first time? Do you remember your first impressions?
  • Why are you particularly interested in the American War for Independence, or, as those of us living in the States like to call it, the American Revolution?
  • You’ve talked about not being a very good figure painter. What are the reasons you don’t like to paint figures? Have you tried any of the quick painting methods?
  • How to you divide your hobby time into percentages? I know most divide their hobby time into painting and playing, but you spend a lot of time thinking and talking about historical wargaming, particularly with your podcasting efforts. How much spent painting figures, how much time spent playing historical wargames, and how much time spent thinking/writing/talking about historical wargames? You put a good deal of effort into promoting your podcast—how much time in a given week do you spend on these efforts?
  • You spend a good deal of your free time involved with wargaming. But what are some of the non-wargaming activities you enjoy?
  • The bunnies have been in the background of some WR episodes. Why do you keep bunnies as pets and what do you like about them?

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
