BGB Podcast #39 – Essen SPIEL 2018 Preview

It’s a Deutsche Mark episode.

Essen SPIEL 2018! Okay, we’re not technically at Essen SPIEL, but we’ve got that Essen FEEL. We’re each counting down the five games that we most wish we were in Germany to play this weekend. Before we hand over our Euros, we talk about SPQF, Le Havre, and Scythe: The Rise of Fenris.
