Description
I always liked the number fifty. Imagine five ice cream cones. Then imagine five ice cream cones 10 times.On our fiftieth episode, we review the formidable dice drafting game by Italian designers Danielle Tascini and David Turczi, Tekhenu: Obelisk of the Sun. To continue in our thread of bad board game titles, this roughly translates to Obelisk: Obelisk of the Sun. We really bring balance in our opinions of the game. Then we each look at our 10 most anticipated games coming out of Essen Spiel Digital.Leave us a review on Apple podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/y2eyvquxRead Tony's blog: https://boardgamegeek.com/user/maxlongstreet/blogsListen to more episodes on Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/show/two-wood-for-a-wheatVisit our website: http://twowood4awheat.com/02:25 Marco Polo 203:35 Race for the Galaxy04:52 Mapmaker: The Gerrymandering Game07:14 Stone Age: Style is the Goal/The Expansion, Fractal: Beyond the Void, Cape Horn, Batman: Love Letter, Siderial Confluence: Trading and Negotiation in the Elysian Quadrant09:00 FEATURE REVIEW Tekhenu: Obelisk of the Sun37:15 FEATURE DISCUSSION Essen Top 1040: 45 Rajas of the Ganges: The Dice Charmers, Super Skill Pinball: 4Cade42:06 Crash Octopus43:20 Velocity: Vanguard44:25 Renature & Almanac: The Dragon Road44:50 Seastead & Flotilla45:50 Furnace46:45 Lost Ruins of Arnak47:30 Renature48:38 The Castles of Tuscany50:38 Athaneum52:14 Super Skill Pinball: 4Cade53:24 Cafe54:48 Curious Cargo & Pipeline56:03 New York Zoo57:25 Cloud Age, Maracaibo, Blackout: Hong Kong59:14 Whistle Mountain, Manhattan Project: Energy Empire, Dwellings of Eldervale01:00:16 Hallertau01:01:34 Dune: Imperium & Clank: A Deckbuilding Adventure01:05:40 Venice01:06:34 The Lost Ruins of Arnak, Endless Winter, Tyrants of the Underdark, Supermotherload01:09:24 Tawantinsuyu01:10:50 Red Cathedral01:12:49 Pandemic Legacy: Season 001:13:49 Praga Caput Regni, Pulsar: 2049, Underwater Cities, Last Will, Maracaibo, Rajas of the Ganges01:16:16 Beyond the Sun01:18:30 Anno: 180001:20:20 Paris, Whaleriders, Bonfire, Scott Pilgrim Miniatures the World, Viscounts of the West Kingdom, Raiders of Scythia
