238: A Guide to People Mar 16, 2022

Show notes

Are you a new or experience player trying to find a new group to play with? Or are you scheduling a game and decided to invite a new friend to join your typical group? Maybe you're looking to play online for the first time casually or in a tournament. Well we hope this episode can be a resource for you. In it we discuss what it's like to join a game with strangers and how to navigate the tricky social balances of Twilight Imperium. The Superbowl of Board Games is a pretty wild way to meet someone, and we think it's helpful if you go in with the right expectations.

237: Theorycrafting Vuil’raith Cabal Mar 09, 2022

Show notes

Enter "Season....3? 4. 3?" It's a new arc of the show where we, you guessed it, dive deep into the board game Twilight Imperium. How deep? Well now we plan to do cover a single faction over the course of numerous weeks. We don't anticipate every faction getting the same structure, but we're starting with Vuil'raith Cabal and they're in a bit of a rough position currently. So, to begin their journey, we decided we'd need to throw the playbook out and theorycraft new and crazy idea. Join us, won't you?

236: The Prelims are Here Mar 02, 2022

This coming weekend will conclude the massive 2022 Patreon Tournament Qualifiers. 480 players have competed in 80 games and now those winners will match up against our 136 players who received a bye into the Prelims. So how will those Prelim games differ from the Qualifiers? And more important, how is one expected to WIN one of those confounded games? Well we got answers to BOTH questions today, so lucky you!!

235: Qualifier Report with Stads Feb 23, 2022

Show notes

The Galactic Council chose the right option this month! The Qualifiers have been raging in the background and we haven't done any sort of overview of how it's been going. But Stads over at The Qualifier Report has been keeping up with EVERYTHING and is here to spill the details. We chat statistics, share some stories, tell you some of the best games to seek out, and play a quiz show about some of the craziest things to happen in the tournament so far!

To watch almost every game of the 2022 Qualifiers so far, check out this YouTube playlist curated by BigAlCupachino: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvT90Ksrv-ArlfkAg0xWtxO0W0dW-L5Gt

234: Preliminary Guide to Xxcha Kingdom and Preliminary Guide Finale Feb 16, 2022

Show notes

This is our 17th base game faction to update for Prophecy of Kings and our 24th faction to cover since the release. Which means we've DONE IT. Consider this one a season finale for the "Introduction to Prophecy of Kings," which means now the real show can begin. It's a long winding road ahead, but let's make sure we give the Peace Turtles their time to show in this conclusion to the last year and a half.

233: Should It War Sun? Feb 09, 2022

Show notes

We're almost done with this phase of strategy guides and as we wrap up we though it'd be fun to take the temperature of something we've been thinking a lot about. Prophecy of Kings added a lot of things that made people excited for War Suns again, the question is if it actually fulfilled the promise. So today, we're going to explore the viability of War Suns for all 24 factions!

232: Preliminary Guide to Ghosts of Creuss and the Arborec Feb 02, 2022

Show notes

We're tackling some bottom tier factions today, which means it's time to let loose a little and have fun. You're probably not finding a win with these factions most games ANYWAYS, but how can you still have a decent time? Well, we'll question what it means to play ethically and I'm sure you won't be surprised which of us believes ethical play is important and which doesn't. Let's call this one "the episode where all of the die hard faction fans will get mad at us."

231: Expansion Wishlist 2 Jan 26, 2022

Show notes

The Galactic Council gave us a tall order this month. We are tasked with doing Dane Beltrami's job and designing a SECOND potential expansion for Twilight Imperium. Prophecy of Kings covered a LOT of ground and it's hard to say anything else even should be added, but here's some brainstorming for ya anyways!
