In this special episode Sarah and Adrian welcome back to the show, and the team – Def!! It’s exciting to have him back after a brief hiatus and we certainly missed him. Def doesn’t waste any time getting back into the swing of the tabletop talk as the crew discuss Fantasy Realms, the potential of the video game Elden Ring becoming a board game, Stonemaier’s announcement of Viticulture World, and how much we love keeping stats. Don’t forget our Sizzling Games: Adrian loved exploring the historical roots of Prague, Def has well and truly fallen down the COIN rabbit-hole, and Sarah has been increasing the difficulty of one of her favourite games.
In the Board Game Bracket we settle the last match-up, Eclipse: 2nd Ed vs Marvel Champions, before we cue up the next battle: On Mars v Gaia Project. To make sure your favourite goes through to the next round make sure you vote on our socials.
Finally, in Swear An Oath, Adrian got his Jaws of the Lion Party back together, Sarah played Railroad Ink with the “Pluckman” Dice, and Def – well, no one can remember what his last oath was. New oaths include 1862 (Adrian), The Smoky Valley (Sarah), and Perseverance (Def).
