Hobby gaming as a Podcast
EpicTurn is a podcast about the Hobby gaming industry, what we love or hate about it, how it's evolving and changing, and other things that as gamers we're passionate about. It is hosted by Bryan McLemore (@Kaelten) and Tim Aldridge (@Telshin).
On this episode we're joined by special guest Jason Hardy from Catalyst Game Labs. We sit down and discuss some of his history with Shadowrun and other games. He also gives us some great details about the future of Catalyst and what they're doing next.

In this very special epsidoe we sit down with Todd Rowland from AEG. He was kind enough to geek out with us for a while about all the awesome things they're doing.
We want to thank Todd again for his time, it was great to have him on.

In this episode we sit down and discuss large group games, and we give our own personal top ten list. For a few we didn't have a common point of reference so we presented a few options.
We also have one honorable mention due to it's sheer capacity to sit players: Village Wolves.

We again try something different, and this time maybe we shouldn't have, but we did it anyway.
We tried to sit down together and actually play a game of the DC Deck-builder from Cryptozoic as we reviewed it. The review went off well enough, but the sound quality was definitely subpar.
Timing Apology: We are again needing to apologize about the tardiness of this episode. Life got the better of us for the last few weeks, and we didn't post, despite having episode 13 and 14 recorded. We're back to our normal schedule now though, and we're back with big plans over the next few weeks.
Audio Quality Note: Due to the experimental nature of what we did in this episode, the sound quality was not up to our usual standards. Before we attempt any more episodes like this we will be revamping the setup to allow for better sound quality.

Review Notes:
On the box itself and its quality Tim gave it 3 Pows and Bryan gave it 4 Pows
On game mechanics Bryan decided it was worth either 3.5 or 4 BAMFS, while Tim thinks it's a solid 4 BAMFS.
Both Tim and Bryan gave it a complete 5 KERSPLATS for how completely accessible the game is.
Overall though, all things considered, Bryan gave the game 4 KaPOWS, and Tim believed it should receive 4.5 KaPOWS!
If you haven't had a chance to pick it up yet, you should definitely find a copy and go for a spin.
