In episode 18, the gang breaks out Vlaada Chvátil's masterpiece of intergalactic transportation, Galaxy Trucker. And of course, Tony T brings you the best gaming news in podcasting and the peanut gallery gives their 2 cents. Then the founder rant about all the things that tick them off about games and gamers and finish up the show with a discussion about technology to enhance tabletop gaming.

Sébastien Pauchon, co-créateur de la maison d'édition Gameworks se prête à l'exercice. "Nous sommes en 2011, une époque troublée où les écrans tactiles font de l'oeil aux tuiles de carton.

Plusieurs éditeurs ont porté leurs jeux sur ces plateformes... Mode ou nécessité ? telle est la question posée....

Welcome to Episode 87 of the Meeples & Miniatures Podcast.

In this show I am once again joined by Rich Jones as we have further discussion about Saga, Northern Fury and the latest faction: The Skraelings.

We discuss the new battleboards in some depth, and how these give specific 'feel' to each faction - but we also look at some questions that have been asked about the game, including morale and body count.

We also chat about other future releases for the Dark Age, including the upcoming rules from Too Fat Lardies.

I hope you enjoy the show.

Today we have an afternoon recording, in which we talk about recent gaming, some kickstarter arrivals, and of course the Avengers phenomenon. Did Gyroplay and GeekJock have a throwdown about another movie or will they agree this time? You will have to see! Thanks to all our listeners we have reached 25 episodes! We are excited about it and hope the next 25 go as smoothly as the 1st 25 did!

In this episode, Jordan sparks up controversy and lets us “know” that Milla Jovovich was in Paranormal Activity (yeah, I still don’t get what movie he actually meant) and trashes on Scarlett Johansson. Michael admits that he plays with dolls. Jeff attempts to put Jordan on “time out” and ponders how Felicia Day isn’t his

In this Session Report show, we "Point-5" one of the games we discussed during our Lord of the Rings Extravaganza of Show 19.0.

This Session Report is based on a friendly game of ICE's Lonely Mountain: The Lair of Smaug the Dragon, that we shared with our good friend Bill. This is a light discussion of some of the strategies each of the three of us employed, and also of some of the unforeseen events that threw a wrench into most of our strategies. While this play example was quite atypical for a couple reasons, we still got some fun insights into this game, and so we hope you enjoy hearing about some of the surprises that awaited us deep in Smaug's Lair.

We always love to hear from you, so please post a comment to this blog entry (at www.gameopolis.org or gameopolis.libsyn.com), or send us an email at info@gameopolis.org!

Stay tuned for Show 20.0, on its way to you very soon.

The Strange Assembly crew kicks off the Embers of War set review with Unicorn and Scorpion.

Look ma! A bonus episode!  We've got some great new serivces to announce, including new FREE iOS and Android apps and new ways to get the Lost Chapters.  But instead of JUST announcing that we thought it would be nice to include our interview with Mack Martin, co-designer of Dust Warfare! Mack was kind enough to sit down with us for a bit at Adepticon 2012 and give us the inside scoop on the how and why design decisions behind Dust Warfare, and what we can expect in the future.

Tom's trek across the continental United States is done, so we're back to blab about boardgames.

In an last-minute emergency change of game for April, Mags ran John Wick's Cat RPG for Kae, John, Steve, and Layne! Plus, wine tasting, folks (stay after for Layne's reviews)!

No specific recipe as such for April, because circumstances didn't really allow us to cook. So the Buffet decided on a tapas approach, with Mags bringing chicken salad, quinoa salad, crackers, and a sandwich platter from CostCo, John providing cheeses and wine, Layne provided assorted chocolates and wine, Steve bringing wine and fresh fruit, and Kae bringing fresh veggie platters and soda.

You can see our recommendations for a wine-and-cheese supper in the show notes from AGC Episode 54 in June 2007. If you're interested in how we Louisvillians approach finger sandwiches, take a look at this recipe for a local favorite: Benedictine spread.
