Before shouting about toys professionally, Mark taught ethics at a health sciences university. He discussed matters of life and death, of cutting edge controversial technologies, of war and politics, and matters of fundamental rights and duties. He has learned two lessons from those experiences: never ever talk about animal rights with a pit bull owner, and his views on Mass Effect are vastly more controversial than any of his other views. In this episode, he is at least smart enough to stay silent about dogs.Games Played Last Week:01:54 -Street Masters (Adam Sadler & Brady Sadler, Blacklist Games, 2018)07:45 -The Barracks Emperors (Wray Ferrell and Brad Johnson, GMT Games, 2023)15:08 -Dune: Imperium--Uprising (Paul Dennen, Dire Wolf, 2023)17:58 -Tank Duel: Enemy in the Crosshairs (Mike Bertucelli, GMT Games, 2019)28:09 -Lunar Rush (Steven "Skippy" Brown, Dead Alive Games, 2023)32:27 -Regicide (Paul Abrahams, Luke Badger, & Andy Richdale, Badgers from Mars, 2020)News (and why it doesn't matter):34:44 Modiphius' upcoming Mass Effect game by Eric Lang and Calvin Wong Tze Loon36:49 Ares will publish and distribute new Mega Empires (further descendants of Mega Civilization)38:17 Heroscape: Age of Annihilation from Renegade Games--prepaints and all your money 44:57 Street Masters Kickstarter buyer's guide redux48:15 Feature Game: Leonardo da Vinci's Codex Leicester (Changhyun Baek, Flaminia Brasini, Virginio Gigli, Stefano Luperto, and Antonio Tinto, DiceTree Games, 2023)Our Sponsors:* Check out Manscaped and use my code SOWRONGGAMES for a great deal: https://www.manscaped.com/Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
