This episode Doug gets to sit in the guest chair instead of the host chair for once to talk about a game in his journey to a fourth place finish at the Railroad Avenue Rampage, a 23-person 2-day Malifaux tournament held in Bellingham, Washington in April. Join us for quite the ride as we listen to Doug ramble on about how great Barkus is while everyone agrees with his invaluable nuggets of wisdom since he is clearly the most handsome and intelligent Student of Conflict and totally swears he wasn’t the one to write these show notes.
