Gamers Lounge Ep 71 – Nephilim Episode 71 is here and on schedule. The outro of this episode may be a little explicit, but that should be the only part. We kick off as typical with Lounge Talk, discussing recent games of Malifaux, Malifaux on Vassal, IKRPG, Infinity, and Assassins Creed 3. Really the normal rambling Lounge Talk everyone is used to. We follow that up with some listener email and our response. It’s a long one but we thought it made a good topic to respond to as it touches a lot of current concerns in the Malifaux community. M&SU Bar returns with some Nephilim talk, followed by the Outro. Content at: 00:00:36 – Lounge Talk 01:08:24 – Listener Email 01:45:58 – M&SU Bar: Nephilim 02:02:58 – Outro

Gamers Lounge Ep 70 – Malifaux Mini-topics!! Episode 70 has arrived and its on time! This episode starts out with a nice long Lounge Talk as we get caught up from our break over Christmas and the New Year. We cover games and trips and other fun for nearly an hour. We continue on to award the prize(s) for the contest we ran, reading the winning character concept and then award the prizes. Following that we jump into Mini-Topics! During the Mini-topics segment we talk about the Through the Breach Kickstarter, the Battlefoam Breach Bag, Vassal, Our 2012 best gaming experience, and the Vassal Podcast Challenge. This is a true Gamers Lounge style topic, lack of editing and all. Our main topic for the episode is advice for moving from a beginner to a competitive Malifaux player.
