297: History of Twilight Imperium 1st Edition

May 03, 2023 18:47 - 2 hours - 211 MB

We've been doing our part as historical record keepers recently by looking back and previous editions of Twilight Imperium and noting how the game has changed over time. Today, we'd like to dig deep with you and walk through 1st Edition's life-cycle. What are the Twilight Imperium "fundamentals" and what has been tossed out over the decades?

296: Translating a Root faction to Twilight Imperium

April 26, 2023 03:57 - 2 hours - 200 MB

The Galactic Council gave us permission to goof around this week and we couldn't be happier. We get to combine our two loves: Root and Twilight Imperium. Our task? To take a Root faction and distill it's essence into a crystal then smash that crystal against a treasure chest, open the treasure chest, and pull out a Twilight Imperium faction. We wanted to do this really earnestly, okay? But then really wild, funny ideas were too good to pass up... 0:00 Deciding Which Faction 30:04 - Transla...

295: Spirit Guides - Ocean’s Hungry Grasp and Spread of Rampant Green

April 19, 2023 13:37 - 2 hours - 197 MB

We're back with more Spirit Island! It's exciting to continue exploring this game and this week we're both tackling potentially more complex factions. But stick around after for plenty of TI talk, including another round of Prelims Reports! I did it three weeks in a row everybody! A new record! 0:00 - Errata for 290 (Spirit Guides - Vital Strength of Earth and Thunderspeaker) 13:49 - Ocean's Hungry Grasp 1:13:21 - Spread of Rampant Greent 1:53:58 - Homebrew Review: BradleySigma’s Test Si...

294: Dreaming of the Future of TI

April 12, 2023 05:01 - 2 hours - 191 MB

This week we got distracted and decided to run with it. We couldn't stop thinking about how we haven't seen a Codex yet this year and we just wanted to sit and dream up what sort of potential there could be to more Twilight Imperium content. We've done wishlists before, but this is a bit more off the cuff. Also we don't necessarily agree on most points, so come join us for a back and forth discussion about what we'd like to see added to TI! 0:00 - Dreaming 1:47:36 - Homebrew Review: Wekker...

293: 7 Player Games

April 05, 2023 18:25 - 1 hour - 129 MB

Since PoK, we've had two player counts that have gone relatively unexplored by this show. We change 50% of that today! We're talking about some of our recent 7 player games and our takeaways about the differences between 6 and 7 player (with some healthy chat about 5 player games sprinkled in). Also, there is a whole segment about Magi's Madness, the 7 player asymmetric map released in Codex 2 (https://images-cdn.fantasyflightgames.com/filer_public/ff/fe/fffe5e9d-33fb-4149-a3a2-cd6dfadb4de3/...

292: Portland Hootenanny Liveshow

March 29, 2023 05:21 - 1 hour - 82.5 MB

This was a live recording of the Space Cats Peace Turtles Portland Hootenanny Liveshow at Helium Comedy Club on March 22, including opening act Old Gamer's Almanac! Featuring: E.J. Sanders, Jamie Carbone, Steven Wilber, Katie Nguyen, Aaron Harleman, and Sun Sanders! Music provided by Ben Prunty.

291: Fog of War w/ Brassbird (feat. The Stars Beyond with Absol)

March 22, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour - 108 MB

We're in full prep and travel mode for our Portland live show and Hootenanny, but we have a special treat for you! We've been a part of a couple of "Fog of War" games recently and decided to bring resident Fog of War Weird Bear Correspondent Brassbird in to help us make sense of this very odd game mode. It's an adventurous, cutthroat, thematic way to play and there are a number of ways to try it out! Also, Matt and Absol read the first short story from The Stars Beyond, A Ghost of a Chance ...

290: Spirit Guides - Vital Strength of the Earth and Thunderspeaker

March 15, 2023 05:00 - 2 hours - 194 MB

NEW GAME NEW THEME. We've dabbled in Spirit Island as a show so far, but it's time to fully take the plunge. We've been practicing as some specific factions and we now come to you as two novices hoping to help you get started with two of the base game factions Vital Strength of the Earth and Thunderspeaker. Some of you definitely know more of us, but this episode is primarily geared to the people that don't yet! But also, this is the kind of episode where you get to jump over on the discord ...

289: Super Argent Flight Guide

March 08, 2023 06:01 - 2 hours - 196 MB

It's time to get back to trusty ol' faithful. Argent Flight just have a lot of things that make sense and go well together. Despite that, they've actually had a bit of a rocky history in competitive play. However, that rockiness is generally in relation to wins, but not necessarily total points scored. That's right, it's time to talk about how to reliably not stall out at 9 points as one of the more defensive factions in the game. 0:00 Argent Flight Overview 39:32 Problems and Strengths 4...

288: Ranking Factions Goodest to Evilest

March 01, 2023 06:00 - 1 hour - 145 MB

The Galactic Council finally got to vote on an episode again and they've chosen a very very odd one. Hunter and Matt are not ethicists or philosophers and yet we are tasked with ranking the 25 TI factions on the basis of their morality. Some of this will be based on their established lore, but some of it will be based on mechanical and strategic implications. Anyways, this is really stupid and please take none of it even remotely seriously. Music provided by Ben Prunty. Find more at benprun...

287: Super Naaz-Rokha Alliance Guide

February 22, 2023 15:14 - 2 hours - 175 MB

Hey look! It's a really good faction. That doesn't mean we can't sit around for 2 hours and talk about the "best" ways to win games as the Naaz-Rokha Alliance. Sometimes it's fun to crush your opponents with friendship and kindness, okay? Open your heart up to kissing that little goblin on your back. 0:00 - Component Overview 40:29 - Strengths and Technology 1:16:41 - Economics 1:32:30 Round 1 Strategy Cards 1:46:10 - Mid and Late Game 1:59:15 - Homebrew Review - Baldrick:  An unnamed ...

286: First Edition First Look

February 15, 2023 06:00 - 1 hour - 119 MB

One project we wanted to tackle this year on the show was doing more to explore the history of this game we know and love. So to start that journey, we wanted to learn to properly play Twilight Imperium: First Edition from way back in 1997. It's the game that launched this franchise as well as Fantasy Flight Games as a company and we were curious how many elements are central parts of the TI DNA. Turns out...it's pretty good! Go figure! 1:06:07 Homebrew Review - Absol's Relics 1:13:12 Agen...

285: What is the Midgame?

February 08, 2023 06:00 - 1 hour - 129 MB

Listen, y'all. I don't know what to tell you. Sometimes you've got questions and we've got answers. Sometimes we ask questions because we secretly have answers we think are clever. And sometimes Matt asks a question thinking he'll find an answer along the way and that answer never really turn up. The concept of "the midgame" is referred to in a lot of our commentary and faction guides, but it's hard to say what we specifically mean by that. So we THOUGHT it'd be good to try and define that a...

284: Super Mahact Gene-Sorcerers Guide

February 01, 2023 15:07 - 2 hours - 194 MB

Prepare to KNEEL! It's been two years since we last approached the topic of Mahact, and so much about our understanding of Prophecy of Kings has changed. So it's time to set the record straight, especially as we've seen Mahact's win-rate skyrocket in the last year or so. What makes this faction so complicated and how can you best control the reins? 0:00 - Mahact Component Introduction 40:53 - Problems, Tech, and Economics 1:16:39 - Round 1 Strategy Cards 1:27:03 - Mid Game and Late Game ...

283: Learn to Learn: Spirit Island

January 25, 2023 06:00 - 1 hour - 154 MB

It's our first strategic foray into Spirit Island, but we're still rookies over here. But we've got a good grasp on how the game is played now and we'd like to relay our experience of learning the game to you. Hopefully we can provide some tips to getting started but mostly we want you to not be intimidated by the many many words that Spirit Island is going to throw at you. But stick around if Spirit Island isn't for you, because we have a prolonged TI topic about being kind to each other an...

282: Our Friend Dane

January 18, 2023 06:48 - 1 hour - 89.2 MB

There's no codex or expansion or rules FAQ. Sometimes we just want to talk to our friend Dane and learn more about him and force him to be our friend. And we figured you all would want to be his friend to, so you get to listen in as we chat about his roots in board game designing, his love of Final Fantasy, and we also force him to answer a whole slew of strange TI design questions! It's a fun episode, y'all! Dane's 5 Year Anniversary Portrait: https://twitter.com/FFGames/status/16038198026...

281: A Guide to Setup

January 11, 2023 06:00 - 1 hour - 159 MB

We've taught you how to learn this game and how to teach this game, but we've never taught you the proper way to set it up! So today is a treat for relatively new players or players looking to change up their faction drafting and map building as well as different tools to help enhance the Twilight Imperium experience.

280: 2023 Premiere

January 04, 2023 06:00 - 2 hours - 168 MB

It's a new year! Our custom 'round these parts is to use this time to take stock of how the last year of episode and Patron bonuses went and what we can do going forward. This year is very little change in how things operate on the Patreon, but some big changes coming your way for the show. And part of those changes was our desire to hash out the next slew of episodes with you in the room and then get your feedback on what the next few months of the show looks like! So take a listen and then...

279: Holiday Spectacular 2022

December 28, 2022 06:00 - 31 minutes - 43.1 MB

We played a game on Dec 27 2022. There were 7 of us. That game should be on Youtube. It was a good game! You should go watch it. This episode is what we recorded right after that game, when we were all quite tired. Happy Holidays, Happy New Year, we love you, see you in Tournament 5! Music provided by Ben Prunty.

And you all thought we'd learned to listen to you. HA! Don't forget who steers this ship. There are only two opinions that matter and they are ours and they are absolute. You are just lucky enough that we grace you with our guidance and thoughts! Our yearly faction ranking is here and it has never been more correct than this... Music provided by Ben Prunty.

277: Sidereal Confluence

December 14, 2022 06:00 - 1 hour - 109 MB

December had two Galactic Council polls, the latter of which was for us to feature ANOTHER non-Twilight Imperium board game. They chose the space negotiation game Sidereal Confluence. It's a wild, non-violent game about slinging cubes and makin' deals as fast as you can before there's no deals left to make. But the bigger question is how would SCPT cover a game with so much math and interpersonal conflict? We're good at neither! Music provided by Ben Prunty. Find more at benpruntymusic.com ...

276: Codex 4 Wishlist

December 07, 2022 06:00 - 1 hour - 115 MB

The first of your two December Galactic Council episodes is another opportunity for us to make a list of demands for Dane before the holidays. The dust from Codex 3 is beginning to settle, and rather than be happy with what we've got, it's time to beg for more delicious board game content. So we sat down and thought through what we'd most like to see in another Codex if Dane were ever to make another. Music provided by Ben Prunty.

275: Tournament 5 Signups and Spirit Island

November 30, 2022 06:00 - 1 hour - 110 MB

THERE'S IMPORTANT BUSINESS TO TEND TO. The Tournament 5 Signups email is going out December 10 at 20:00 UTC. This is to all members of our Patreon who were active during the months of October and November. We also detail our hopeful schedule for this year's tournament and what everyone can expect. Then it's time to have fun. The Galactic Council wanted us to play Spirit Island, and I bet only a few of them knew we'd like it as much as we did. So let's talk about WHY we liked it and what that...

274: 2022 Homebrew Overview

November 23, 2022 06:00 - 1 hour - 116 MB

Matt's been playing games with the Homebrewer's Guild this year and he had a very specific project in mind. Today's episode is a sort of Abstract of the findings of that project. We were after a sort of "Tournament Mode" or some set of rules that could shake up that conventional Tempo of a game of Twilight Imperium without too much rules overhead. Was any of it successful? Well here's your report. Music provided by Ben Prunty. Find more at benpruntymusic.com or benprunty.bandcamp.com To le...

273: Guide to Technology

November 16, 2022 06:00 - 2 hours - 220 MB

This is a major part of almost every faction guide, but it feels like a very long time since we last checked up on and took stock of how we feel about Technology. What's good? How much should you expect to get per game? What are some of the trends we see in competitive play? The answer to all of these questions is of course "Blue Tech." Music provided by Ben Prunty.

272: The Veiled Masters Review (w/ Absol197)

November 09, 2022 06:00 - 1 hour - 114 MB

Hunter's got the week off while Matt and Absol talk about the third and final novel in Tim Pratt's Twilight Imperium series! All of the main characters from our first book are back in this spy adventure and this might be the best book of the whole set! Save for some Arborec nits Absol desperately needs to pick, this book has a lot of fun in it and feels more political than any of the previous entries. Our first half is a spoiler-free review if you'd like to check the book out, and after that...

271: Alliance Mode

November 02, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 81.8 MB

The Galactic Council decided it wanted us to spend some time this month playing and researching Alliance Mode, the variant provided in Codex 2. It's a silly variant that isn't even fully play-tested, so expect hiccups and a lack of rules clarity. But if you're willing to allow your Twilight Imperium to be fun, instead of a serious no-fun cage match, it's probably worth checking out! Although it's not for those looking for a shorter playtime. (without some modifications that we recommend) Mu...

270: Super Naalu Collective Guide

October 26, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 97.3 MB

With this episode, we put a sort of wrap on Codex 3 required update episodes! A few factions drastically changed, and none more than the Naalu Collective. Naalu's "ranking" amongst the factions has been quite a roller coaster, but with these recent additions the snakes are back on top. So, how do you wield the raw power of such a strong faction? How much gas is too much?? Similar to our recent Win From Ahead episode, we're going to talk a lot about tempo and how to pump the breaks today... ...

269: Clash of Cultures, Innovation, and more! (Featuring Shelton and Shawn)

October 19, 2022 03:38 - 1 hour - 62.3 MB

It is a wild one this week. Matt has been away on vacation and so Hunter has been left to his own devices! So obviously, it's beach episode time. Hunter brought his buddies on to just talk about various board games we like as if this is some normal boring regular cool podcast.   Music provided by Ben Prunty.

268: Super Win From Ahead

October 12, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 85.2 MB

This is us revisiting a classic SCPT topic. When we first asked "How does one win from ahead?" I don't think we even fully knew what being "ahead" truly meant. Not only that, but an expansion and multiple codices have released since then, so it seemed an important time to make another attempt at an answer. More important, winning from ahead seems harder than ever and it's time to get to the bottom of WHY Music provided by Ben Prunty. Find more at benpruntymusic.com or benprunty.bandcamp.com...

267: Tournament 5 Announcement and Asynchronous TI

October 05, 2022 05:18 - 1 hour - 87.5 MB

Oh my dear, another year is upon us. It is officially sign-up season for the next SCPT Patreon Twilight Imperium Tournament. The first half of this episode is most of the things you need to know about the upcoming sign-ups as well as new Patreon Goals, followed by a discussion of our experience with the Asynchronous TI Discord server (https://discord.gg/vY3nBkegkn) Async TI begins at 42:47 Music provided by Ben Prunty.

266: Guide to Exploration

September 28, 2022 05:00 - 2 hours - 124 MB

We've been taking some time recently to revisit old topics deserving of an update. One of those is surprisingly recent: Exploration. We've only had this mechanic since Prophecy of Kings was released, but we've learned a lot since we first introduced it, and it's about time we cleaned up our thoughts a bit. So, here we'll read the exploration cards for every deck, including Frontier and Relic, and analyze what a player is meant to do with all of that. Music provided by Ben Prunty. Find more ...

265: Twilight Inscription Review

264: Super Xxcha Kingdom Guide

September 14, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 98.4 MB

We're making our way back through all of the factions, starting with those that got recent updates in Codex 3. Xxcha only received a new hero, but it seems that simple change was enough to make us reconsider everything about this faction. It's now an economic powerhouse if you play it right and it's time to explore how to do that and what it means for the faction!  Music provided by Ben Prunty.

263: Root - The Marauder Expansion

September 07, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 67.1 MB

It's been so long since we've tuned into Root, and there's been a new expansion out for a while now! This isn't a strategy guide, but we do intend to do some down the road. Instead, this is an overview of all of the things that came with the Marauder Expansion, as well as what Root even looks like these days. There's more than just these big box expansions and it can all be a bit hard to follow, so consider this your guide to Root in 2022! Mentioned in the show: Woodland War Machine Podcas...

August 31, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 97.2 MB

August's Galactic Council Episode is the season wrap on GC episodes that fit this kind of vibe. For a while now we've been doing GC episodes off the cuff, and for the next batch we want to put in a bit more time on each episode. But for this "Improv Finale," we've saved the best for last.

I know you just loaded up this episode and saw that timecode. That ain't no joke. This episode is nearly 3 hours and 35 minutes long and it's because we have to talk about every single Action Card in the game. Yes, we HAVE to. Never forget that this is our job and we will treat it as such. Prophecy of Kings and Codex 1 both introduced a lot of new cards that we have not talked about in depth so prepare your mind and body.

We were finally able to return to GenCon for the first time since 2019, and this time we got to hold a a real live show at the local Helium Comedy Club. Our other podcast, Old Gamer's Almanac, opened for us because they are incredibly kind and to be honest they went kind of long. But once they were done, we had some time to also do some live SCPT shenanigans. Listen, this isn't your normal episode, but it is an extra fun one, so please enjoy.   Music provided by Ben Prunty.

IT'S A BIG EPISODE! The tournament Finals are literally upon us, but that doesn't mean we can't bring you fresh, dense, gritty strategy talk. We've been playing with Yin since their Codex 3 update, and it's time to talk about where the faction is. Newflash: they're still not very good.

Well we brought Darrell on to give us the scoop! In here, we talk a bit about Darrell, the old TTS mod, what TTPG has done so far, and where we think things could go!

252: Can Anyone Be Good?

June 22, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 120 MB

The Galactic Council chose violence this month. It's a question that apparently gets asked from time to time, and it's now OUR TIME to settle the score. Can anyone be good at Twilight Imperium?
