Ced__ ,

Great guide to an amazing game

I’ve got to episode 13 so I’m writing a review. I started playing LOTR LCG in 2022 when the revised core came out. It’s been fantastic to listen and learn as Jon and Em have taken me through each of the cards and the quests so far. The show really makes me think about he cards and how I can best use them. Keep the episodes coming both!!

Great show

Perfectly pitched...not too Dol Guldur, not too Passage Through Mirkwood. The Journey Down The Anduin of podcasts. Great rapport between the hosts makes for great listening!
