Ep 018 | Luck be a Lady Tonight!

1 hour 12 minutes

"Luck be a lady tonight, just be a lady tonight"

- Sky Masterson

Description

Luck, Randomness and Variability are spread throughout board gaming as what they bring to the table leads to many interesting board states and challenges we have to overcome. However, these can also bring problems and headaches that gamers just have to put up with. So let's discuss the difference between Luck and Randomness, the positives and negatives and all that comes with it.

We also had a chance to try the tabletop simulator mod for the game Drift designed by Australian James Allen. Without spoiling the podcast you are in for a treat with this discussion as we wish we have played this BEFORE our racing game special because it may be our new favourite racing game.
