058 - HEALTH TRUMPS MANA

Chris and Euan are on their lonesome for this week's board games episode, which covers a couple of games that they've enjoyed for a few years now, starting with Mage Wars, a deckbuilding mage-battling game with a huge difference in that all your cards and abilities are available to you from the off. They then go back to Xia: Legends of a Drift System, the sci-fi sandbox game of customisable ships battering around a dangerous galaxy, and have a look at the new expansion for it, Embers of a Forsaken Star, and all the delights that it adds. Enjoy!

020 - PLAYING DICE WITH THE UNIVERSE

The lads are back with a milestone episode! In this episode Pawel tells us all about Banner Saga 2 and his absorption into that world, Chris loves repeatedly dying in Running with Rifles, and Euan is confused by the Twin Peaks-esque PS3 game Deadly Premonition. We round off the episode with a lengthy discussion about the board game Xia: Legends of a Drift System and the problems with dice. It's a belter!
