Just jumped on here to take that out. You were too fast for me though Johannes!
Also, Greed was mentioned but the actual link to the game Tom was talking about is Greedy Greedy

Eh, sorry, no...
It was on the list (which Jim had) and then we cut it at the last minute due to time constraints. Since we record two shows together, it won't be in the next one either. So hopefully it will be in the following show, though.

For what it's worth, Fantasy Flight has suggested that you can use those new painted minis in Arkham Horror as well. I guess the base was designed to also hold Arkham Horror's cardboard monster chit too. Not that you would be able to really fit more than one miniature per neighborhood, though.

Anyone else think that Kingdom Builder, Troyes, and Trajan deserved a little more time than less than a minute each?

did they skip 240? There is something about it on The web page, but can't find any links to it. I really wish these were easier to get too, usually have to go through 3 or 4 pages to find a link that actually plays the episode, and the way seems to change all the time. At least 241 works, but whats up with 240?

Mmmmm... just Trajan really deserves more time. But not necessarily from Tom & Eric. Methinks it's a fine candidate for Ryan....
