It's an Arkham Horror love-fest when Conor and Adrian join the show! The team hits the ground running with some important breaking news before launching into their Sizzling Games for the week. Conor and his partner have been working through Machi Koro Legacy, Adrian explores the card drafting mage-maker that it Res Arcana, and Steve falls in love all over again with Terraforming Mars.

Many of our listeners in Australia and overseas are still in isolation so the team discusses the pros and cons of playing boardgames online - specifically TableTop Simulator. How does it compare to Tabletop Arena, Tabletopia, or even dedicated gaming apps? With more virtual gaming conventions on the horizon, and even our regular online gaming on the BoardGame BBQ Discord, we discuss the easiest ways to overcome the entry barriers and get amongst the online gaming action.

The Board Game Bracket is going off! We resolve the match-up of Sheriff of Nottingham vs Great Western Trail, before Conor and Adrian go toe-to-toe in two separate battles: Spyfall vs It's A Wonderful World, and Arkham Horror (3rd Edition) vs Mysterium. And finally Adrian and Conor get to join forces to pump up Arkham Horror: The LCG, while poor Inis goes unsupported. Or does it?

In our Kickstarter segment Conor has backed Dead Reckoning and is eyeing off The Shivers and Perseverance. Meanhile, Adrian has backed the dice-drafting game Daimyo: Rebirth of the Empire.

We never thought it would happen, but Steve finally has a clean slate by fulfilling his oaths on Ecos: First Continent and Forgotten Waters. In fact, it's clean slates all 'round because Adrian brought Deep Madness back to the table (but found that his gaming tastes have changed since buying it), and Conor fulfilled his oath by playing SteamRollers (even if it was a few hours before he started recording). The team then swear fresh oaths by committing to Chronicles of Crime (Adrian), Euphoria: Build A Better Dystopia (Conor), and in a dramatic podcast-definig twist - Arkham Horror: LCG (Steve).
