Episode 172 - Altay, Ponzi Scheme, Gwent, Burnt Moon, and Compile

Published: Sun 17th Aug

In Episode 172 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, we share our highlights from PeachCon (and meeting Chris Peach from Peachy Tips) while diving into Altay, Ponzi Scheme, Gwent, Burnt Moon, and Compile—all with the usual mix of board game chat and PhC nonsense. Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider In Episode 172 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the lads return fresh from PeachCon, where they finally got to meet the legend himself—Chris Peach of Peachy Tips—and, naturally we've played a mountain of games since last episode. This episode is jam-packed with board game reviews - as we discuss deck building area control on Altay, make questionable financial decisions in Ponzi Scheme and round off the episode with a two-player lane-battler extravaganza. We discuss Geralt of Rivia's favourite card game in Gwent: The Legendary Card Game, hack the planet with Compile, and carefully co-ordinate drone strikes in Line of Fire: Burnt Moon. Alongside the gaming chat, expect the usual Collider mix of nonsense, tangents, and a lot of laughter. Tune in for board games, hobby highlights, and more than a few questionable financial decisions. And don't forget—you can join the discussion (and maybe pitch us your own con name) over on our [Discord server]!    Podcast Contents 00:00:00 #Ramshackle 00:17:18 PeachCon, Peachy Tips, Necromunda 00:14:53 Altay: Dawn of Civilization 00:32:00 Ponzi Scheme 00:43:46 Gwent: The Legendary Card Game 00:53:22 Compile: Main 1  00:58:13 Line of Fire: Burnt Moon For a 10% discount at Tabletop Dominion (the amazing makers of the dice cubes), go to tabletopdominion.com/POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER or use the code POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER at checkout Show Sponsor: Kienda When you sign up to an account with Kienda use this link to bag yourself a wee discount and help support the show.  Let's face it, you were going to buy a board game anyway Follow Us on Social Media Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PolyhedronCollider Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/polyhedroncollider Threads: https://www.threads.net/@polyhedroncollider The latest episode is available to listen on the following pod-cast services: iTunes -  https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-polyhedron-collider-cast/id1087398150  Spotify -  https://open.spotify.com/show/1rAPFNc5rE6JURNYakNzA3  Amazon - https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/eba45bc5-0a1d-493c-bbbd-024fe5714147/the-polyhedron-collider-cast YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@polyhedroncollider  Player FM -  https://player.fm/series/the-polyhedron-collider-cast  Podbay -  http://podbay.fm/show/1087398150  Or you can add the http://polyhedroncollider.libsyn.com/rss Polyhedron Collider Cast RSS feed to your favourite podcast player  Intro and Outro Music: "Ouroboros" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com).
