Audience -

Jon Moffat @JonTexMo, of Stone Circle Games - “Please no new edition of Cosmic Encounter! I don’t want to have to buy it again, and I would!”

[Joke’s on you, there IS a new edition coming out!]

https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2018/5/25/cosmic-encounter-42nd-anniversary-edition/

Tony Miller / @beardedrogue, co-host of Breaking into Board Games, co-designer of Fire in The Library says “I’d like to see a new edition of Castles of Burgundy with better art. That game deserves to look better on a shelf than it does.” and “Android the board game could use a 2nd edition to tighten it up a bit. It was a super ambitious design that could use another development pass”

Join the core strike force crew as we try and get into the swing of this new format, figuring out what TCbH Hangouts is all about. Sorry for any audio weirdness on Jack's part, recording group interviews with the three of us in separate locations is proving a challenge, but a pleasant one to be sure!
