Feature Topics: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 12:25, 6 December 2023

Feature Topic discussions are at the core of the Board Game Barrage episode format.
The Tanks look out at the wider board game hobby and in at themselves, they look up to The Only True and Living Doctor and down on objectively bad games and they consider ... the name of a specific species of wolverine? Some things are impossible to categorize but that hasn't stopped us trying!

Typically each episode is tagged with one or two of the following categories to reflect the content of the Feature Topic conversation:

Convention - admired from afar or up close and personal

Deep Dive - single topic, singular focus

Game Design - the Tanks examine multiple facets of design

Hobby - a look at the wider board game hobby

Ranked List - ordered, refined and delivered

BGBBOB - Fight fight fight

Draft - Who has the best list?

Look Back - hindsight is a wonderful thing ...

Look Ahead - ... but the Tanks prefer to look ahead

Player Dynamics - behaviour, and misbehaviour, at the game table

Mailbag - listeners question, tanks answer
