"Blueprint for Armageddon" is apparently the title. I'm betting WWI, please be WWI

I heard that he said on twitter a while ago that it was about the events that led up to WWI.

Is it just the build up to the war or does it have actual battles in it too? Dan's always at his best when he's doing military history. Describing battles, arms, armor, formations and tactics and what not. It's by far the best part of all his shows and it's clear that it's his favorite part too. You know for sure he's a huge Warhammer nerd at heart. Hell, I'm pretty sure he's actually made some subtle Warhammer/tabletop gaming references in a show before.

Sounds like hes going to get into it in the coming episodes more. He went into the German Belgium battle for the last hour of this episode.

Just finished the new HH and holy poo poo, the christmas story was perfectly placed to break up the grim depressing stretch at the start. No such luck afterwards though, death and genocide all the way to the end. Probably the first HH I've had to actually pace myself listening to because the subject matter got a bit too grim to listen to for hours in a row.

Yeah it was really bleak, I felt the same way. Going from the gas attacks to the Armenian genocide, the last half of that podcast was depressing as hell.
