  • Episode 17.5: Jack McBastard Plays Star Trek: Ascendancy

     
    Episode 17 ran significantly longer than we’d expected, so we pulled out the board game portion of this week’s episode and present it here as its own track. Listen as Jack McBastard talks about Star Trek: Ascendancy made by Gale Force 9. Ascendancy is a Star Trek themed 4x strategy game which has (surprisingly) measured up favorably to Twilight Imperium, the gold standard for space strategy games.
