BGB Podcast #291 – Fantasy Draft: Reiner Knizia

 

Drafts are back, baby. And not just any old draft, no, but to celebrate the return of the greatest game, we’re drafting none other than the best of the only true and living doctor, Reiner Knizia. Who ends up with the best list? Vote for your favourite, you could win a $50 gift voucher! Before we doc it up, we talk about Empire’s End, My Favourite Things, and Four Horsemen.

This way to the PAX Unplugged Math Trade!
