Gamers Lounge Ep 158 – BRW / Marco Montanaro

Episode 158 has arrived and Bill is joined by Marco Montanaro, creator and author behind Black Rose Wars by Ludus Magnus Studios. Marco and Bill chat about BRW, the background, the inspiration, and the game in general. Marco shares his favorite school of magic, the philosophy and ideas behind the design of the game, and insights into general game design. We also get some teasers of things to come in the game.

I hope you enjoy this fantastic episode!

Gamers Lounge Ep 157 – Tapestry

Wow, this has been a challenging episode to get out. Not this recording specifically, but the multiple attempts prior to this one to record this show.

In episode 157 we have John, Benjamin, and Bill talking about the new HAWTNESS, Tapestry. Tapestry is the new civilization game from Stonemaier games. As you, the listener, already know, the Gamers Lounge loves Stonemaier games. Could this be the one that the crew doesn’t gel with?

Take a listen and see what they think!

Gamers Lounge Ep. Damn

Every once in a while when podcasting for any length of time things happen and entire shows are lost. This is one of those times. What makes it worse is I’m the primary culprit and sole reason the next episode is not on time. Damn. Sorry folks, Ep. 157 is going to be delayed. I’ll have it out as soon as we can re-record and get it uploaded (possibly 2 weeks due to work schedules).

Gamers Lounge Ep 156 – Folklore

In episode 156 we cover the campaign game Folklore by Greenbriar Games. Bill and Mrs. Gamers Lounge really enjoy campaign games, Bill more than she. That said, this is one where we roped in friend of the show Josh to a series of weekend games to play thorugh a full campaign.

This review comes after 6 stories, 14 “chapters”, and multiple play sessions. We each played the same character through that series and have a very good feel for what we like and don’t like in the game.

Gamers Lounge Ep 155 – Rising Sun

Episode 155 has Bill joined by Benjamin and newbie Lamont. This was Lamont’s first game of Rising Sun by CMON, and they boy’s thought it would be a good time to give it a review.

Listen to a new player’s take on the game and mechanics. Benjamin comes around after not really being taken with the game for the 2 previous plays, and it’s hard to tell if there’s a game Bill doesn’t like.
