Episode 179 – Managing the Wasteland

We get Jeff Romo back on the air this episode after a whirlwind journey through some of those less-than-enjoyable periods of life. He comes back with tales of his multi-table “All Bards” D&D campaign. The players of those games have known for ages the joys of singing lizards and keytar-wielding dwarves – but now the rest of us can enjoy them as well. Jeff will be updating a video playlist with both tables appearing each Friday.

We also talk about the trick-taking game Nyet! in our archive dive, before taking a long look at the Fallout board game from Fantasy Flight. Specifically, we address how having expectations of what that game is “supposed” to be will ruin that experience for you.

Hope to see you at Tavern Con if you’re in the area!

Episode 120 – A Triumphant Return to the Wide World

As the title of this episode suggests, this episode Mike has stepped back to the mics after his journeys through the lands of Administration. He kicks off with stories of bear related games (Nyet! and Samurai Spirit) before the rest of the guys get going, as well as an update about the state of the Tavern Con 2016 prize pool with donations from Chara Games, Funhill Games, Tasty Minstrel Games, and more.

We also talk about the concept of the moral will of God and the global will of God – the understanding of doing right and being good in our own little box in our own little way versus the desire to step into the wide world and make connections with people from all walks of life.
