- It’s all pounds, shilling and pence this week at War With A Mate, as the guys cover a lot of big money topics in both Andy’s History Corner and Common Ground. The game recap tackles the combat section of the rules which is refreshingly unproblematic and the Audio Mailbag makes its Sophomoric appearance with Rick.
For those who enjoy board games and good causes, we highly recommend checking out The Spiel Foundation, maintained by swell people like Rick.
https://thespielfoundation.com - The guys reflect on an out-of-the-ordinary week for their hijinx, and recap their play of Pandemic; a game they swore to god is easy. The Mailbag exhibits some unexpected record keeping, Andy’s History Corner reminisces on some strange agricultural choices and Common Ground sees the guys try to let go of the past. I DON’T LIKE THE BEETLES.
- Why did they have to make palm oil so tasty? The guys have been working hard on the logistics of showing off their many spreadsheets to everyone come the full game. The mailbag covers some long awaited “hate” mail, Andy’s History Corner covers the British Empire post-Great War and this week’s Common Ground pries open the truth about lying morally.
- The spreadsheets are looking nice and well-formed following some hefty prep work, and the guys relax after such prep with a quick and friendly “game” on-mic. The Mailbag looks at the origin of Andy and James as friends, Andy’s History Corner unveils a super overt smear campaign and Common Ground asks that we call a spade a spade.
Announcement is now up for the grand beginning of the full game in all its glory, via a live-streamed Episode 100: https://youtu.be/Jy61r6e1YSw?is=IeRm4tVjxJVUffFv - The guys delve into this chapter of the hiatus with a bit of Viking adventure; which in this context means playing a board game of Viking origin. Alongside setting the no-AI expectations of WwaM’s journey, Andy & James cover some vows and animals in the Mailbag, Andy’s History Corner sees the end of the First World War and Common Ground tweaks a previous agreement, because we’re obligated to do so.
