Frostpunk The Board Game

Here we go, Season 2! Steph, Tom and Max are back together after their winter break and ready to talk more about board games, role-playing games and everything geeky. In this episode we find out what they have been up to, what's the deal with lettuce,  game production values and gelatinous dice!

And we're back after a week break! We're still holed up in our homes due to the global pandemic, so once again apologies for the sound quality, but we are working on finding a solution for it. But on with the show!

This week we discuss our new found love and passion for Tabletop Simulator and a few games we tried on it! Max explains what it truly means to be Finnish, Tom defends his favourite movie and Steph mistakenly ends up talking about postmodernism.

This week we discuss about games during social distancing. It can be hard to get your gaming crew together, so we look at what games can be enjoyed via various means such as play by mail, the internet or even via text message! We also touch upon the growing trend of single player modes for board games. We then digress into games we used to play as kids, with Tom lecturing us about the esoteric histories of Snakes and Ladders and the Satanic Panic, Max talks about pig chucking and Steph regales everyone again with a boring story from his past. Finally, we return to fixing Monopoly, with Tom giving us an amazing idea...

This week we conclude our special two part series of Paranoia! The infamous tabletop RPG from Mongoose Publishing! With Infra-Red team showing their worth in last weeks mission, they are sent out to do an even more perilous task! Unplug... The Plug! Pirates, sea monsters and betrayal are abound in this thrilling and insane conclusion to our Paranoia! game.

In this episode we discuss the importance of gaming etiquette and how not to be "that guy" during games. We also talk about the length of play in general and how that too should be considered when picking a game for game nights. Among other things, Steph tells a story about how his wife almost dumped him due to picking the wrong board game to play, Tom expresses his love for Tiny Epic Games, C.J. proves how she's the most emotionally mature of us all, and Max comes up with an idea on how to improve a classic board game.

In this episode we are joined by our good friend and fellow gamer and artist Cherie (C.J), as we discuss grandness of scale in board games and good rule books. Tom explains why he thinks T.I.M.E Stories is pretentious, Max and C.J discuss reading rules books with dyslexia or having English as a second language and Steph goes on a tirade on why he can't watch "learn to play" videos.
