Five years ago, three geeks walked into a pub, and several fine ales later decided it would be a great idea to start a table top gaming podcast. We've now recorded many episodes of board game and RPG reviews, discussion and ramshackle nonsense.

To celebrate our 100th episode we choose our top ten best board and roleplaying games to review and discuss, and get well wishing messages (kind of) from folks like the Broken Meeple, The Secret Cabal and Who Dares Rolls.

Games Mentioned

00:09:04 Teotihuacan: City of Gods
00:20:44 Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game
00:29:36 Waggle Dance
00:40:00 Neuroshima Hex
00:46:35 Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition
01:03:10 Mansions of Madness: Second Edition
01:13:50 Eldritch Horror
01:21:50 Tiny Towns

Its been an odd few weeks. Lockdown may be drawing to an end but we still can't meet up to play games so our exploration of all things tabletop gaming is even more reflective and full of random nonsense than usual. We talk about using an airbrush to paint your miniatures, look at books based on our favourite board games, talk about Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) again and answer questions from the mail bag.

00:01:55 Andy bought an airbrush
00:15:37 Aconyte Books - Arkham Horror Novels: Tales from the Crucible, Wrath of N'Kai and The Last Ritual
00:30:50 Astartes is now endorsed by Games Workshop Astartes
