Join Conor, Jules and Adrian in this “all-aussie” pod as Adrian celebrates his citizenship.  No longer a Brit, but an Aussie through and through … as if he wasn’t already! Adrian has been revisiting an old favourite and curing himself of the plague in Bristol 1350.  Jules has been wooed by a game about picnicking on plaid with ants in the new Bitewing Games title, Gingham. Coincidentally, Conor is also corralling six-legged insects in March of the Ants.  The crew also give a rundown on recent game days in all three states, their obsession with Riftbound and Conor chats about a small box hit he’s discovered. As usual there are lots of laughs and all-round gaming goodness!   Sizzling Games: Riftbound: [34:52] Castle Combo: [50:51] Question of the Pod Recap: [59:52] New Question of the Pod: [1:04:34] Fired Up: [1:12:57] New Question of the Pod: If a TCG requires hundreds (or thousands) of dollars to stay competitive, is that a design flaw… or just part of the hobby?   Check out our Eventbrite page for all of our upcoming Game Days: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/o/board-game-bbq-32833304483   Has this episode left you with a thirst for more?

Episode 341 – Post-Play Con Catch-up: Gen Con, Ladies’ Gaming Weekend & Mic Chaos In a post-Play Con world, the BBQ crew is back behind the mics — well, most of the mics. Jules shares tales from his big trip to Gen Con, Dana recounts her epic ladies’ weekend away full of board games, and Adrian… well, let’s just say his microphone wasn’t having a good day. Blame him for any dodgy audio — we sure are. This week’s sizzling games: Dana – Wondrous Creatures Jules – Wroth Adrian – The Castles of Burgundy 🎲 Whether you love convention stories, new game chatter, or laughing at Adrian’s tech troubles, Episode 341 has you covered. 🔗 Links & Community 🌏 Board Game BBQ Linktree
