Space Cats Peace Turtles ·

2024/10/30

This is a very excited start to what is going to be a very long ARC of Matt and Hunter talking about space games.

374: Super Barony of Letnev Guide

Space Cats Peace Turtles ·

2024/10/23

Here we are with our penultimate Faction guide and this one is a bit rough, Barony seems to struggle a lot in the data and the boys don't quite get to the bottom of it. There is one thing we are sure of, they're good at fighting, but is it enough? If all else fails I do hope that we inspire someone to figure out exactly how to reliably succeed with our Irish space warlords! Tournament 7 is open for signups now!

Looking forward to returning to it sometime in the coming years. Music provided by Brian Kupillas. Check out more of his music at: https://wanderinglake.bandcamp.com/ To learn more about our
