#278: Check Check Check

We're lucky to have covered wide swathes of the board game world, but there was a time when some of those things were aspirational. Like achievements to cross off on the great board game check list ... or like that Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson movie. You know they invented that phrase? Wild. Before we make our list, we talk about Municipium, and Yucatan.

Timecodes:

02:27 - Municipium
12:47 - Yucatan
29:38 - Board game checklist/bucket list
31:17 - Twilight Imperium: Fourth Edition
35:15 - Diplomacy
35:57 - Playing landmark games
38:39 - Blood on the Clocktower
41:05 - Board game conventions
45:24 - Board game meetups
48:10 - You don't need everything for a game
48:29 - Dominion
49:52 - Guards of Atlantis II
50:38 - Two player and abstract games
52:26 - Designing a board game
