Hello and welcome to the FIRST EVER Rally in the Valley Interview Special! Also, the biggest downgrade in audio quality this podcast may ever see (Tom and Michael are working on it for next time...). In this episode, Tom and Michael talk briefly with Harold Buchanan, designer of Liberty or Death. They begin by discussing his background in gaming, what lead him to design a COIN game, and design choices in Liberty or Death. Then, the juicy bits! Harold talks at length about his upcoming South China Sea and Saratoga endeavors (different titles, not one mega cross-centuries extravaganza). After that, the strange bits! In which our guest graciously answers Michael's attempt to emulate the great James Lipton. 

  Apologies again on any audio issues. Thank quick thinking on Michael and Tom's part (also Michael's laptop and Tom's phone), Tom's editing skills, and mostly Harold's infinite patience.   Check out Harold Buchanan on Twitter (@HBuchanan2), buy Liberty or Death from GMT games because it is SO good, and watch for his upcoming South China Sea and 1777 titles!
