344: Super Mentak Coalition Guide
Uh oh, it looks like we've saved a lot of the "bad" factions for last which means all of these Super guides are about to get a lot more FUN. Mentak, the most autocorrected faction, is definitively COOL and NEAT, but can struggle to score points... Let us examine why!

343: Most Anticipated Board Games 2024
Beach episode time! This week we've taken the Galactic Council poll results and really ran with it.

Get your pen and paper out because you about to get a big ol' list of interesting suggestions from people with excellent taste, also EJ is in there.
Special thanks to Cole, Nick, Brooke, Ted, and Alita of Leder Games.

342: 8 Player Games
This week, we're tackling a much requested topic. 8 Player Games! Matt and Hunter have both done some research and are reporting on strategic differences they found in their limited experience. Lot's of talk is devoted to why we don't prefer the player count so prepare yourself.
We've also got an excellent discussion with Tactic Blue on the upcoming Discordant Stars Twilight Imperium Homebrew Expansion that you'll definitely want to hear about.
At the end of the episode we have some surprise guests you'll definitely want to hear from.

341: Arcs - Resources and the Court Deck
More Arcs! We're having a lovely time learning this new game and before we start diving into guides for different Leaders and eventually getting into the Campaign expansion (where we'll spend most of our time), we needed one more episode covering the basics. We've talked about the limited action economy of the game and alluded to the fact that you are able to improve upon it, but it's time to discuss that in depth! Resources and the Court Deck are your key to improving your action set and taking better control of the game, so let's learn about them!

The best Twilight Imperium (unofficial) podcast in Sweden
Imagine how much work it takes to make the best Twilight Imperium (unofficial) podcast in a country with as many (or as few) as the ten million people which lives in the Kingdom of Sweden. Add to the fact that none of the hosts even lives in the country. This is what makes Space Cats Peace Turtles so special.
Every Tuesday millions (probably) of Swedes and without a doubt Norwegians, Finns, Icelanderd yes even the Danish gathers around for a ”fika” and some ”hygge” by the fireplace, to listen to the long wave radio from Arkansas. It’s incredible how these two guys have kept the faith in America alive for the last couple of years for us in Scandinavia and how their passion for the best board game ever made (except hnefatafl which probably inspired the move action in Twilight Imperium), will make us believe both in America and that we all can win a game of Twilight Imperium for decades to come.
No matter if you are out skiing cross-country, downhill, freestyle, telemark or mogul, this podcast is what gives us up here in the North light and warmth during the six months of winter and for that we are eternally gratefull.
Thank you SCPT!
