It's time for another "What we love, what we hate", and this time we're looking at deck builders! Its been twelve years since Dominion blew things up, and since then you don't have to look very far to see a game that uses the mechanic. We look at the highs and lows of deck building as a mechanic, and discuss some of our favourite games that use it. We also talk about Bruxelles 1897, Elysium, and Can't Stop.

Marco Pecota, designer of Legions of Steel, discusses everything that goes into designing a miniature war game.
Marco has been designing these types of games since the 90s, and we go into combat systems, movement, metal vs plastic, and everything in between.
And be sure to check out Marco’s miniatures packs on Kickstarter HERE.

Martin G (qwertymartin) Patron Badge for 2009 through 2019
Martin returns to the podcast after five years to talk with me again about the year just passed. This episode we spend less time talking about the raw statistics for our games played, instead having more fun discussing a bunch of "best of" categories for the past year. Best artwork, party game, component, 2-player game, and so on. Fun to reflect on the past year in that way, and there's a special follow-along/participation geeklist for you all to use, as well. -Mark
Shelley and I take on an award-winning party game, along with two "write on your player board" titles:
Bloom by Wouter van Strien from Gamewright involves rolling & writing
Welcome To... and its expansions by Benoit Turpin from Blue Cocker Games involves drawing and drawing
and
Just One by Ludovic Roudy and Bruno Sautter from Repos gets us partying it up with words!
