The On Board Games Roundtable
Some games contain a gimmick. Do these gimmicks make the game better, worse, or neither?
Don, Erik, and Scott discuss these types of games; what works and what doesn't.
Sideboard Discussion
Scott went to Origins and he and Erik discuss it and large conventions in general
Stoplight Reviews
Erik reviews the Z-man Games' B-Movie card games
Scott reviews Coliseum
I'd like to thank Don and Scott for being on the podcast and Philip Jacques for the music this episode.
Since, Don was moving, I got to do the editing. Any problems are my fault.
