BGB Podcast #373 – Fantasy Draft: Two Player Games

It’s been a while since we’ve done one of these! Bored from our recent bouts of co-operative board game drafting, this week’s episode sees the return to the competitive format, where we pit our games against one another, and let you decide who did it best. This week, two player games. Also… did we mention you can win $50 just by voting? Before we revel in democracy, we also talk about Rolling Freight, and Six-Sided Seas.

Gangs der Häuser Escher und Goliath treffen in der neuen Starterbox von Necromunda erneut aufeinander. Neben Miniaturen enthält das Set Gelände, Spielmaterial und ein umfangreiches Regelbuch für die neue Edition. Doch gelingt damit auch ein überzeugender Einstieg in die gefährlichen Tiefen der Makropole?
Necromunda steht für erzählerische Kampagnen, individualisierte Modelle und eine lebendige Spielwelt. Gleichzeitig galt der Einstieg bislang als komplex und regelintensiv. Mit Warhammer Necromunda: Skirmish verspricht Games Workshop nun einen schnelleren Spielablauf, ohne den narrativen Kern des Systems aus den Augen zu verlieren.
