Description

00:00:30 Intro 00:09:34 Arkham Horror LCG Midnight Gala 00:12:00 Star Wars Unlimited 00:15:43 Altered 00:16:55 Toy Hall of Fame Winners 00:20:30 Oh Christmas Tree 00:25:18 Gas Can Rant Part 2 00:27:27 Taste Buds 00:32:02 Gametoppers LLC 00:33:38 Battalion: War of the Ancients 00:53:15 Thunder Road: Carnival of Chaos 00:58:04 Portal Games 00:59:10 Yro and Castle Combo 01:11:46 The Lie 01:17:17 Miniature Market 01:19:44 Outro Hope those that celebrated the recent holiday had an enjoyable and were able to get some board gaming in with the family during that time. Seldom do we get two similar games to the table at the same time, but we did for this episode. Both Yro and Castle Combo are very similar in style and mechanic, so it was nice for us to be able to compare to games against one another. The new Thunder Road expansion is out and this expansion takes you out of the wasteland and into the Demolition Derby arena where more chaos will reign. Maybe that is why they called in Carnival of Chaos. Since there is no finish line, it is nice that there is a “timer” to help end the game and not just wait on elimination of everyone but one player. Finally, there is a look behind the curtain as you will experience the pain that Marty goes through in trying to explain a game to me. We have all had the experience where the game isn’t clicking or you are explaining the game and you get nothing but blank stares back. Well, you get to experience it in RDTN style during our discussion of Battalion: War of the Ancients. Thanks for listening and see you during the anniversary show next time.
