BGTG 159 - 100 Great Games, Epilogue (with Stephen Glenn and Mark Jackson)

As you may recall, Stephen, Mark, and I already finished our countdown of 100 Great Games in an earlier episode. However, for a long while we'd planned to do one more episode together--this one--where we talk about our own picks, surprises, disappointments, trends, and so on. I foolishly thought this would be posted before Christmas! Will I never learn?! :-)

That toward Caunterbury wolden ryde. We delve into the history and literary legacy of one of England's most famous cities by exploring 2 games: Canterbury and The Road to Canterbury. In one we are Saxon lords building the city district by district. In the other we are pardoners accompanying Chaucer's pilgrims, tempting them into sins which only we can absolve... for a price.

#28: Imperial Smog

30. April 2015 um 14:14

Sometimes Team SU&SD can be compared to a marching band, except instead of playing musical instruments we make awful mistakes, and instead of moving forward we stay in the same place forever.

Not today, though! Today, in podcast #28, we prove our competence. Paul discusses overcoming Panamax's awful manual to discover the fabulous game within, while Matt and Quinns discuss the great time they had leading civilizations in both Nations and Imperial Settlers. Finally, we discuss Paul's new, potent sex power in the game of Apocalypse World.

Don't worry. This can't last... can it?

Panamax, Nations, Imperial Settlers, Apocalypse World
