Show notes

Hunter, Matt, and Dane are all here to talk about the big elephant in the room for the new Twilight Imperium expansion. What exactly is Twilight's Fall? Is it simply an official take on frankendraft? How wildly does it differ from regular Twilight Imperium? Is it the new "real" way to play the game? Did Dane make us two expansions???

ALL THIS AND MORE, WITHIN!

421: Blood on the Clock Tower Appreciation Podcast (ALSO THUNDER'S EDGE TEASERS ARE BACK, ALSO ALSO TI DIGITAL ANNOUNCED WOW) Sep 17, 2025

Show notes

This is easily one of the craziest episodes of this podcast we've ever produced. So first up we're going to cover FOUR new Thunder's Edge component teasers because I got to make it up to you for all the weeks I wasn't able to share the new stuff. Then we're going to talk about the new announced Twilight Imperium game "Twilight Imperium Digital" and only after all of that will we get into the meat of the episode where Hunter, Matt, EJ, and some fun guests talk about our shared love for the social deduction game BLOOD ON THE CLOCK TOWER. If you've never played this game before hopefully you'll get a good idea of why people love it and what kinds of gameplay experiences you can find within!

Show notes

This is easily one of the most important episodes of SCPT since the very beginning. This week Hunter and El Blasto sit down to talk piece by piece about every single new component that Fantasy Flight Games has revealed for the upcoming TI4 expansion, THUNDER'S EDGE. Buckle up because this is a long one and there is so much to talk about. Also keep in mind that not all of the components discussed in this episode are fully confirmed however, we tried our best to note each time we talked about the less "concrete" examples.
