Great episode! Grey Ranks retains one of the top spots among my “games I haven’t played but really want to play” :sweat_smile:

I’d love to chat about Grey Ranks if the episode prompts questions for you.

In terms of inspirational media I highly recommend Andrzej Wajda’s films Pokolenie and Kanał. Pokolenie has a more early chapter Grey Ranks feel to it, and Kanał is just an astonishing film set during the Rising.

Exactly my sentiments!

Me too. This is one of the top games I’ve wanted to play for years but never had the chance to do so. Someday! I’m very keen on it.
