Episode 52 Underwater Cities, Zombicide Invader, and more

Thespokentoken's podcast

Intro Banter - This is the (mostly) unscripted intro to the show! We catch up, play games, talk about games that perhaps did not make the main show, and just gab, Welcome!

How much Space you gonna need?: How big is it on the table? How much space does a game actually need to be played. This Episode Underwater Cities and Funkoverse!

To the Limit - The guys push a game to the actual limit based on what the rules actually allow. This could be min maxing a particular strategy, to exploiting a particular rule, to playing games at their full player count. They recall their experience and discuss the results again all within the confines of the rules.

This time we talk about which games should or should not be played at their full player count:

Shouldn’t be: Wingspan, Root , Rising Sun, Terraforming Mars

Should be: Sidereal Confluence, Between Two Cities, Captain Sonar, Kemet , Dice Throne, Kings of Air and Steam, Settlers of Catan (with Expansions; 5-6 Player: Cities & Knights, Seafarers)

On the table - We will examine what the game is like when played, we need to personify that experience, this should be impersonal experience wise, but cover angles and what to expect from the title, cover components, setting, rules and the overall atmosphere. This Episode Zombicide Invader !

Points to hit:

• Components

• Table presence
• Smoothness of play
