Gamers Lounge Episode 56 – Composition? Restriction?

Episode 56 brings a new change and a new era to the Gamers Lounge. Bill brings in two new hosts, who are well known voices to listeners, Mike and Dan Awesome join the crew in the Lounge. In an effort to return to a more regularly scheduled podcast, the three hosts kick off Episode 56 with a lengthy Lounge Talk. This is followed by a message to another Podcast Bill has been listening to, followed by a short conversation about Composition within Malifaux. We follow that with a longer conversation and interview with UK Rocky on UK Composition overall. In efforts to push the length of the show to the extreme, we follow up with a new Rapid Fire Segment, then close out with an outro.

Hope you enjoy!

    Great to hear the old Theme Song again. BTW is that from an actual song or is it made for the podcast?

       Its one of the default songs in garage band.

    So you guys mentioned Papa Loco not being able to blow himself up anymore.  Did I miss something in the newest Errata.  I thought it was still valid since Take you with me causes Dg not Wds

       He can still use Take Ya With me, but cannot attack with his melee attack while at 1wd remaining, since that would kill him (and its fixed wd that reduce him to 0)

      • Nilus

         Ah that makes sense,   For a second there I thought I was going insane and missed something major.

    Lack of class?  Dan is much less classy then me… and Mike is… well… Mike…  Congrats on some new hosts…  your damned.

       lol!  Nah, you’re completely right there.  There’s a distinct lack of class that’s been added to the podcast now with Dan’s inclusion.  With me?  Who knows what Gamers Lounge gained (lost?).

       I am realizing this.

      Damned Damned Damned.

    Listening to the whole comp discussion. Never came across it during my 40k tournament years and don’t understand the need. If there is imbalance and you really want to win, take the nastiest imbalanced list you can. If you don’t want to take the cheesy lists then don’t expect to win, or find a way to win without it. The journey home from tourneys was filled with discussions about how to beat “that” list – therein lies the challenge. Play to win or play for fun, comp just muddies the water.

       It sounds like you agree with our standpoint on comp. Craig has done some great work on his comp pack, but I cannot see it getting traction in my local area.

  • Chris Smith a.k.a. Ozymandias

    Where can I find the Comp document?  I don’t see it anywhere on the Wyrd Forums, has it been released yet?  Great discussion and while Comp is a four-letter word to a lot of people, the discussion was great.

    Great.  Thanks Bill.  Now all of Chicago area hates me. Couldn’t just take the advice could you?  ;)

      At least if your plan works.

        Actually, I thought about it after I posted. I wonder if there is much threat of anyone in Chicago actually hearing the broadcast ;) . I’ll be happy to get a game in at GenCon This year or Adepticon next year.
