Kerley takes the first player throne for his first time and rounds everyone into the ring to talk about the super middle-weight division of board gaming....the mid-weight game

FIRST PLAYER: Kerley
OTHER PLAYERS: JP, Tambo & Becky

OVERVIEW
In this episode you'll learn:
- how the team are excited that Kerley has taken the first player token
- JP gives us his thoughts on Voidfall by Mindclash Games after playing it 4 times
- Tambo discusses his win in the latest Twilight Imperium game by Fantasy Flight Games
- that Kerley has a dinosaur fetish and that Becky doesn't like using her posh Crokinole board in front of people
- about our thoughts on mid-weight games, what they are, why we like them and some of our favourites
- about the new "would you rather" which is deciding whether we would learn only by video / google OR by the rulebook alone.
