The dam has burst, and the flow of large player-count games rushes without signs of abating. We are willing to be sufficiently foolhardy to gather in larger groups, so the demand for 6+ player games has skyrocketed; and with it, the chance to return to old favourites. Dare we call it... a party?

Def, Jules and Mike are back this week to explore the method to Jules' boardgame-culling madness, the experience of sharing the hobby with the Oz Comic Con community, and everyone's next favourite game from Vital Lacerda. Meanwhile Jules has been having a feast of fun with Bites, Mike has been navigating through the lies of Blood On The Clocktower, and Def is finally ready to talk about Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon.
In the Board Game Bracket we settle the last match-up, Quacks of Quedlinburg vs Too Many Bones, before we cue up the next battle: Gaia Project vs Raiders of the North Sea. To make sure your favourite goes through to the next round make sure you vote on our socials.
Finally, in Swear An Oath, Jules successfully played a multi-player game of Age of Steam, but failed to get Ortus Regni to the table. Meanwhile Mike is still yet to play Viscounts of the West Kingdom, and Def can't decide if he fulfilled his On Mars: Alien Invasion oath or not? New oaths include Root: The Marauder Expansion (Jules), Picture Perfect (Mike), and Railways of Australia (Def).
Sizzling Games: Bites (25:30), Blood On The Clocktower (40:10), Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon (50:50)
