Episode Details

On this episode Adrian, Jules, Def and Connor discuss the concept of economies in board games; closed economy games, open economy games, buying, selling, and auction bidding. The team discuss their favourite games, how they perceive value when faced with changing economics, and how they approach building their empire. What's your favourite economic board game? Share your thoughts in our Facebook Community or on our Discord channel.

In our Sizzling Games segment Conor has been teaching his niece how to play Super Fantasy Brawl, Def has been battling Mitch in Undaunted: Normandy, Jules has been trying to conquer the Doom Machine, and Adrian has been digging around in Archeology.

In the Bracket Battle 2.0 we check in on the current Battle: Castell vs Gaia Project. To make sure your favourite goes through to the next round make sure you place your vote on our socials.

Finally, in Swear An Oath Adrian continues to paint his Tzolkin wheels, he has also commenced Aeon's End Legacy, and he fulfilled his oath to get Abomination to the table. Meanwhile Conor's oath to play Destinies remains unfulfilled, Jules learned Too Many Bones from Liam, and Def is just in over his head in oaths. New Oaths include City of Crowns (Conor), Mysthea (Jules), Pax Pamir (Def), and more Abomination (Adrian)
