In this special episode of The Long View, I'm pleased to offer my report from two August Conventions, The World Boardgaming Championships, or WBC from Lancaster Pennsylvania, and GenCon from Indianapolis. In this episode, I share my experiences and impressions of these conventions, and offer reviews of games I played, or demoed, or viewed during my time at these great events. For those who may want to skip my convention musings, the following time index should prove helpful! Thanks for listening!
