184: Unsurmountable, Barrage: The 5th Player Expansion, Dinosaur Island: Rawr ’n Write

Apr 5, 2022

On this episode Adrian, Mitch and Conor wax philosophical with the best pieces of advice that they have ever received, Mitch investigates Schnitzel-gate at the Castle Hill RSL, Conor wrestles with the dilemma of having too many games, and Adrian picks a fight with Mitch over his scathing Batman Returns review. But don’t worry – amongst all of this there is still plenty of table top talk.

In the Board Game Bracket we settle the last match-up, Gaia Project vs Lord of the Rings: Journeys in Middle Earth, before we cue up the next battle: Clans of Caledonia vs Too Many Bones. To make sure your favourite goes through to the next round make sure you vote on our socials.

Finally, in Swear An Oath, Mitch played Marvel United: X-Men and found he enjoys it solo more than with anyone (surprise, surprise!), Conor made light work of The Hood for the greater good of mankind, and Adrian successfully painted the four minis prior to his next game of Kingdom Death Monster. New oaths include Jaws of the Lion (Adrian), play Navajo Wars without the tutorial (Mitch) and Marco Polo (Conor).
