We're in our Action Card arc! Hopefully we'll finish it someday but today Hunter and Alec decided to jump over to the Twilight's Fall zone so that we can start ranking and discussing how good all of those cards are. This is the first of only two parts though so you won't have to wait quite as long for us to get through all of it! Very excited to dig into the TF tournament starting right around the corner, stay tuned!

Looks like we've gone right back into the meat! Today we're getting back into the Action Card deck and I gotta say this series is looking to be our first 8 part series. I promise I will try to edit it into one supercut whenever we finish because this is shaping up to be an absolutely GUARGANTUAN topic that our panel is fulling giving our full attention to. Seriously hats off to these guys: Me, Jadiim, and Blasto. These are probably best listened to in order but if you like to attack these based on starting letter I see you!

Alright we're getting a little different with it today. Today Hunter and Patty sat down to talk for 2 hours about a very important TV show that we love so much.
WATCH DEEP SPACE NINE. I BEG YOU.
Also we spoil many details of many episodes in season 1 so if you get intrigued at any point please just give the show a watch.
Also I reference a slimmed down watch order for DS9 and here it is:

This week Hunter is on the road and very busy working on personal and professional assignments! So instead of the usual episode Hunter sat down with Jadiim's daughter to talk to her about her experiences playing TI and having a dad who is so into the game. Consider this JJ's victory interview haha.

It's Hunter and Blasto week as we sit down to talk about the big bad nasty boys of the TI Universe. The Gene-Sorcerers have long been the go to choice for hardcore players of Twilight Imperium so let me stress to you that this episode is absolutely essential for playing the game at a high level since even if you aren't playing the Mahact, it's a Mahact world out there so you better get ready. Have a great Gen Con to those that are attending!

Okay so this is a little bit crazy but Hunbun, Jadiim, and Blasto sat down recently to begin a long journey where they evaluate every action card and rank it on a tier list. They did not fully understand how big of a lift that would be and they only were able to cover Ancient Burial Sites through Divert Funding. There will be many more episodes on this but you should expect this one to take a while. Personally I think this is our magnum opus.
