Moving on to the News section, more details of Captian Sonar’s First expansion have come out, Gloomhaven’s reprint gets announced, and CMON hires a head artist. In Kickstarters, all the money is being thrown at CMON’s Rising Sun, and a “new legacy” game, Legacy Tic Tac Toe, is discussed. Our hosts then sail on to the Review of the Week, Le Havre. Does Uwe Rosenburg’s game use it’s euro mechanisms to upgrade itself into a glorious game, or does its’ art and game length make it just another box on the harbor? Find out inside! At the end, some questions from twitter are answered and Friend of the Show, Edward from Heavy Cardboard, chimes in with an update of his Review from 2014. Finally,a couple emails close out the show.
