    Episode #43 - Marvel Champions Oct 18, 2019

    **EDITOR'S NOTE** There's an obnoxious tapping noise that starts around the 6:00 mark. Our mic stand was tapping against the laptop, and we didn't notice it for several minutes. If it's too annoying for you, it stops at 13:20. If you skip to that point, all you'll miss is the news and our coverage of the game's components. Spoiler: They're mostly fine. The cards are standard quality, as are the tokens and dials. The only thing that's not great is the insert, which I whine about at length and recap again at the end of the episode. The meat of the review is after that 13:20 mark. Sorry about that, folks! We'l watch out for this problem in the future. *** Welcome to Solosaurus, a podcast about one player board and card games.
