The original three: Socerton, Beale, and Sir Nevels are back all together for the first time in a long time to take a trip down memory lane and discuss what the biggest improvements for the game have been. They also talk about what they want to see added to the game and apparently Socerton thinks horsemen stink in Feudal Age.

The Ottomans are crazily powerful right now. We talk about that and more with the one and only CrackedyHere who joins Socerton, Beale, CalerbCalmari and Askallad for today's show.
