  • TGT 165 On Topic: Fantasy Flight Games
    Chris does a LOT of the talking in this episode.  Yes, yes, we know what you're thinking, "he always does a lot of the talking."  But this time, it's a LOT.  Anyway, he's talking about FFG and what makes them FFG.  From the early days of TI1 to LCGs to Unique Games.  He covers it all, sort of.  We never do get into the digital side of FFG and we only touch on the story stuff they do.
    Oh, and if you're wondering what Chris's top 3 FFG games are...

    KeyForge
    Arkham Horror: The Card Game
    Star Wars: Rebellion
