It's time for another episode of the wildly popular podcast Chasing Meeples. On today's show, we're joining you live from PhoenixCon 2 in Appleton, wisconsin. Chris and Angie discussed some of the games they managed to snatch from the vendor hall, and more, and brace yourselves. Angie has been put on the spot to create a spontaneous quiz. Will Chris bomb it? No pressure, right. So without further ado, let's cut to the chase and get this banter started now.
Speaker 2Alright we are recording. Alright, I'm going to kick us off. We got, we're going to fly through this. One cut One. Absolutely no editing when I get home whatsoever.
Speaker 3So whatever we say here, it's going on air.
Speaker 2Whatever we say is going on air.
Speaker 3There's no, yeah, there's no editing. Alright, no editing.
Speaker 2I got to get all the bad words off then. Okay, alright, alright, ready. Hello, here we go. Yes, hello everybody. This is Chris from the Chasing Meeples podcast, and we are see I already screwed this up.
Speaker 3We are in Appleton, wisconsin, with, but who's this person?
Speaker 2Okay, hold on a second, let's start.
Speaker 3I had to pick up.
Speaker 2Yeah, well right. I did.
Speaker 3This is all going in the podcast. Don't you love it?
Speaker 2No, you could have just rolled, edited, you could have just roll. I'm ready. Now we're going to start over for real this time. That was the warm up. Hello everybody, this is Chris from the Chasing Meeples podcast and I am with my lovely co host.
Speaker 3Hello, hello, it's Angie.
Speaker 2And we are recording live from the Paper Valley Hotel in Appleton, wisconsin, and we are live at PhoenixCon. It is the second annual, first second. How do you say that? Second ever?
Speaker 3Second Second ever. He did have one previous week, but it wasn't here.
Speaker 2Okay, there was a PhoenixCon last year. We are at PhoenixCon this year. We were there last year too and we are, like I said, we're recording our podcast on location. Something new Bought a couple of new toys. Hopefully it doesn't suck too much when I get home.
Speaker 3Well, yeah, here's the thing. A week ago, two weeks ago, we were selling our games at Heroes Veg, located to Rivers, and guess what? We bought more games than we sold that night.
Speaker 2Yeah, we did, we totally bought more games.
Speaker 3but they were half price.
Speaker 2Yeah, they were, but anyway. So, yeah, we came home with a good haul. We'll have to do like a haul video or something to our break and see the games that we picked up. Yeah, yeah, that would be cool stuff, very cool. These headphones in my ears are messing with me here, angie, but we're live and we're going to go.
Speaker 3We're going to go with it.
Speaker 2All right, so.
Speaker 3Don't know what it's going to sound like.
Speaker 2All right, don't know, yeah, whatever, so, okay. So what are you going to talk about?
Speaker 3We should plan this. We should have planned this, we should have planned this but I'm so busy, so busy coming and everything like that. So, coming here, I had to get prepared. I had to get the game big prepared. We had to make sure I had to make sure you got all the podcasts equipment in the bag.
Speaker 2If we're going to do this without editing. Huh, what you got to do is finish sentences. You can't just stop a sentence the way you did. I'm not even going to repeat that. So those that were listening, rewind it. Play it back, because I'm not repeating that.
Speaker 3So anyway, it wasn't that bad.
Speaker 2See, now you're making me want to repeat that. Anyway, okay, moving on, all right. So what did we do today?
Speaker 3What did we do today? What?
Speaker 2did we do today? All right, so we got here and we checked out the vendor hall. You know, that's kind of what we do every time. Hey, when we go to any con, first place we always got hit is the vendor hall. It's just the good consumer in us, right? It's a small vendor hall.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, not so much. You're not going to see the game companies and stuff like that. Here you are seeing, primarily, there are a couple local game stores that are here selling their games at a discount. A lot of artisan things, people that make things three, printing the last, etching the leather, all sorts of things, people, authors, people that have created their own art pages, so things like that.
Speaker 2Yeah, if we have some time maybe we'll walk through, go live and show everybody what they have in the vendor hall. For those of you that are in the Appleton Wisconsin area, if you haven't had a chance to get here, you should check out.
Speaker 3It's open tomorrow too.
Speaker 2So we got here, we did that, and then time flew right away, so we went and had some lunch.
Speaker 3We had some lunch.
Speaker 2And after lunch we sat down and played first. Yes, and I love that game. It's a good game At first when I'm okay.
Speaker 3You're okay with it, I liked it better than my first play of it, and I did. We played the starter game the first time and I was pretty disappointed with it and I had mentioned it to Brandon from All aboard Gamer that I was not happy with it. So this time we drove right in the starter game. You just take away some element cards environment card, which I don't know why you take that away.
Speaker 2I know it's not that difficult at all.
Speaker 3Right it gives you an end game goal. So starter games. I have an issue sometimes with starter games, but we did the complete game. It was a good game. It was longer than it was supposed to be. We tend to do that when it's just the two of us. Well, when it's the two of us that really not worried about another table full of people having AP.
Speaker 3Right, when we play wingspan, I will try to just roll it around, okay, okay, I'm going to tell you. I'm going to tell you the truth. I lengthened the game. I did not lay all my games With Earth. You're building a tableau, four by four grid, and once somebody completes the grid, that is end game. I did roll long and I put an end to the game a couple turns, but you know what do you try doing with the end of the game? You're going for those points, you're trying to get those points and so, min max, I'm going to get as many points as I can.
Speaker 2Are you saying that you could have beat these? Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3I didn't add the end game points. I did not end up. Oh, whoever finishes the game gets an extra seven points. Oh my gosh, that's right. I had 219. I think it's seven, I don't know if it's seven or 11 points. Oh, I did, there is, there's. There's points at the end of the game for whoever finishes.
Speaker 2It'd go. You beat me even more.
Speaker 3Well, I love this game, it's okay. It's okay. It needs a reference sheet, a turn order sheet. Yeah, those are just those little things that people, when you're creating a board game, you're doing kick starters, you have to remember, especially if you have a decent size game, you're doing a Euro game, something like that, you need a turn order sheet, reference sheet. They did have on the game boards of the slower. On the game boards they did have a reference area where I told you what the icons were, which is great. But turn order I mean just what you do in your turns, even though you don't always need it, it's nice to have, it's nice to have. I'm just gonna say that's nice to have. And you know what? It doesn't hurt anything because, like little sheets of paper, it won't hurt anything.
Speaker 3They have like 12,000 cards. All they had to do was like take a couple of those cards and just write the turn order or a reference, some sort of reference on it.
Speaker 2Although the iconography, once you kind of understand what it, what it means, it's not true.
Speaker 3It is nice and it's printed on the board, but I'm a reference sheet type of person.
Speaker 2You are, you're a player, aid person.
Speaker 3A player aid. That's the word Player aid. Player aids yes.
Speaker 2So I'm just gonna rub my eye here for a second, because it's not images.
Speaker 1Sorry.
Speaker 2You scared the crap out of me when you're like Ah, but that's okay.
Speaker 3That's what you get with us. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2Yeah, but yeah. So I was really cold to that game when we first got it. Like Andrew said, we played the beginning mode and I was ready to get rid of it Like after one play. I was like I don't understand the hype.
Speaker 3That's it. It had a lot of the hype, and that's we. Fall prey not to the hype but to anti-hype, Like with wingspan. When wingspan came out, everybody loved it. We were kind of like it took us a while to try wingspan. It did, because the more it's hype kind of.
Speaker 2Yeah, we try to stay away from the hype. The fact that we have, you know, but see, that's.
Speaker 3it's weird, because your Kickstarter hype though.
Speaker 2So that's just it, right. But it's weird Like we stay away from games that are like super hyped, right. But we're totally called to the new.
Speaker 3FOMO and I found games here on the, because some of them are Dinger Dent, some are just markdowns, but I had been looking for a glass row by Uwe Rosenberg and I found it and I passed it up. It was here, I'm getting it. But we just found Blue Moon City. Haven't seen that anywhere, but it's like grab it.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3You know, grab it.
Speaker 2Dinger Dent, like K of the Box, has got a little bit of a ding, not much, no, wait. No, that one wasn't even a Dinger Dent, that was just a con special basically 50% off.
Speaker 3Yeah, too many of them, whatever, which is neat because at Stockpile Games last year they were here. Everything was MSRP. As a smart retailer, they realized Camira was right over there. Let's take our overflows and bring them here, that's pretty good.
Speaker 2So, those of you that are listening and those of you that are watching live, question for you. I don't even know how this thing works, if I can see their answers or not, but that's fine, Okay. So, Dinger Dent, there was a copy of Freshwater Fly and I'm intrigued by that game. I'm not much of a fisherman myself been out there but the game looks pretty neat, right, I digress, Anyway. So this one was. It was.
Speaker 3Touched on the inside.
Speaker 2More than dinged and dented. We're talking hole in the box like I can touch everything.
Speaker 2I can touch everything on the inside. So everything on their shelf was marked at 50% off. Okay, totally get it. Big sign, ding and dent 50% off the label. But we're talking a mangled box again and I can, like, touch everything on the inside. So I walk up to the counter with like three other games and I say, all right question for you, look at this, look at this big gaping hole you have in your box, I guess if you can have it marked down even more, just like 10 bucks.
Speaker 2Any more than 50% off that you can give me on this, and like they were like nope, sorry, Wasn't she?
Speaker 3the only store she didn't own store. Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2I think what it is is. It's because it's a retail store. So, anyway, those of you that are watching, what do you think? Should I have gotten a deeper discount or was I just that guy who shouldn't have asked for it? So I've been to other cons and I've been able to wheel and deal with the people when I'm buying, like video games and things like that. Like, hey, how about? You know, I'll give you all this for 50 bucks. You know, give me all this for 50 bucks and it's like, you know, five bucks less or 10 bucks less than what they were asking for. What do you guys think?
Speaker 3It's, it's not, it doesn't hurt to ask. You know it doesn't hurt to ask, but she did not own the place. So unless you're kind of given permission, because where I work we kind of know that if somebody is on the edge there we can give them a discount up to a certain amount. So that was that's because our owner told us that and Big hole in the box.
Speaker 2What, there was a big hole in the box.
Speaker 3I'm looking at you through the big but she wasn't the owner and she may not have gotten permission to do that.
Speaker 2All right.
Speaker 3You know she's a worker bee. She's a worker bee and she's part time. Well, she does this work at CAD.
Speaker 2So yeah, well.
Speaker 3I mean yeah. I don't know, we didn't need another game, so it's okay. It's okay. You should have bought cold country, though.
Speaker 2Yeah, I posed with a picture of cold country.
Speaker 3If anybody's ever watches the dice tower, they did kind of a tongue in cheek the ugliest board game covers last year and everybody watching. It was like a live stream. Everybody watching was voted on it and the game that won no, it was close.
Speaker 2Yeah, it wasn't cold country it was.
Speaker 3oh you know what If we were seeing that one. It was another bizarre game. I can't think of how ugly it was. The cold country was up there, cold country's up there. It was like the second maybe.
Speaker 2It's an awesome cover. It is an awesome cover. I'm glad I am now immortalized with the box in my hand. So all right, we're 13 minutes in Ange and we've got-.
Speaker 3Was that our banter?
Speaker 2We've got a game of wingspan coming up in about 20 minutes or so. We should probably wrap her up a little bit. Make sure we get there. I don't know exactly where we're sitting to play. It's 416. 416? 416. Yeah, it's 416.
Speaker 3It's 416. It's not bad. How long does it take you to get that stuff all wrapped up? I was going to talk to. Scott Green with Game of Games but he is off playing a game right now, so we can have him in as an interview.
Speaker 2I'm sorry, I was talking over you. What were you saying?
Speaker 3I was saying we were gonna bring in the Angry GM, but he's busy right now.
Speaker 2The Angry GM. Yes, the Angry GM. Yes, he is busy right now. He is actually playing his own game of wingspan right now, Mm-hmm. So we did bring a bunch of games to the con that we didn't get a chance to play, so it happened, lash.
Speaker 3Okay, I am here with this giant game table bag and we've already had emptied out once. Okay, just part of it, but I did bring along Earth. I brought along plate catacombs, we brought along Trekkie through history.
Speaker 2We brought along Fistful of Meeples.
Speaker 3Fistful of Meeples, and and here we are Think of Blacks. See, I thought this would be a cool one, just to kind of pull out and you know it's an eye-catching little dexterity game. You know, maybe you get people that say I wanna play. We did have somebody come up to us and ask us about Earth and we asked if they wanna join us. I'm sorry I am shaking that in front of the microphone on our day. I am sorry. He asked how long the game was. He only had an hour.
Speaker 2Yeah, a game of Earth that normally doesn't take three hours did take us three hours, but that's just because we were enjoying the atmosphere. It's like 90 minute game In here.
Speaker 3You know, everybody knows that that's not accurate, but we took our time. Yeah, you know, looked at the rules, kind of had a replay of the rules. We had some people stop by, we're chit-chatting a little bit, kind of laughing at stuff, and so yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2So we brought more games. Wanted to play them, but I'm cool with just playing one game and being here.
Speaker 3You know, checking it out, that happened to us last year. That did.
Speaker 2Last year we played Arc Nova.
Speaker 3We played Arc Nova here. Yeah, that's the first thing we did. That's the first thing we did.
Speaker 2Yeah, because, like we said earlier, we don't play into the hype or anything. I mean, arc Nova wasn't the newest, hottest thing and Okay, I, but I don't remember the hype around it.
Speaker 3I remember that Tom Vassal rated like his top game of the year before it was ever released, before it was ever released in the United States. He had it because he played it somewhere. He had it at his number one before anybody else even touched it. So that may have swayed my opinion a little bit, you know.
Speaker 2Sure.
Speaker 3I mean I don't play everything that Tom Vassal plays. I don't agree with him for everything, but the fact that he pushed off some of his really Mahab. He's had it number one forever and I think that got pushed away for Arc Nova, so Kind of gives you this idea that maybe it's. Maybe Maybe and it was good it was good and I enjoyed it I do have. Did we get the expansion Did?
Speaker 2we, we, oh, the water one that they just released. No, I don't. I don't even think it's available to buy yet Silly.
Speaker 3I think you'd pre-order it.
Speaker 2Yeah, well, sorry, oh wait.
Speaker 3Okay, well, I'll just pack up my Tinder blocks and go home.
Speaker 2Oh, yeah, okay. Anyway, you're silly, I know, but no, you brought up a really good thing. I'd like to talk to you a little bit about it. So you mentioned Tom Vassal and how you don't necessarily agree with.
Speaker 3I don't always agree with Tom, so much you know. He's not of the dice tower, he's not the one I connect with most.
Speaker 2So who would that be then? Oh?
Speaker 3absolutely, mike D'Alicio. Woo-hoo-hoo, that's cool and Z.
Speaker 2Garcia yeah, I think, mike and Z, you're right, they're tasting games, do Kind of matches, yours.
Speaker 3Although I have to say that one of my other favorite podcasts is sporadically bored with Mike and Dan, so I'm a little You're a little biased, I'm a little biased.
Speaker 3I do wish sometimes I could speak with an English accent so I could talk to Dan Hughes properly. Yeah, that's it. If Dan Hughes walked in here with all people from the dice tower contributors, it'd be Dan Hughes. Would anybody think that I'd be like hey, dan, I love you. He's got that sense of humor, he's got that dry English humor that I dig you dig, I'm down with that, I'm down with that.
Speaker 2Cool, cool, cool. Yeah, I would say Z and Mike Chris Yee also his.
Speaker 3He does. I'm sorry, Chris Yee, I forgot about you. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2When I don't want you to when.
Speaker 3Yeah, I'm so sorry. I don't want that Because Chris and Wendy they love the beige, beige Euro games.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3So you know, Tom, you're falling down there. If we're like going who we really like for games, Tom's down like drop down four spots.
Speaker 2Ooh, ooh, that sounds like fighting words there they are.
Speaker 3Come on, Tom.
Speaker 2All right, where are we at? We're tying here. We're at 416. I think it's been three minutes.
Speaker 3It seems like an hour, but we've been talking for three minutes. It's the last time you look at it. You're sitting around. I have to get her off of here.
Speaker 2I can't stand talking to her anymore, so okay, so a question for you Do we get a quiz today?
Speaker 3Holy shmoly. Holy shmoly. A sporadically-bored, a sporadic quiz, oh, my goodness, spontaneous, oh.
Speaker 2I thought for sure you would have had a quiz planned out this whole time you planned on going and recording.
Speaker 3I got one.
Speaker 2Oh, all right, Two published plain catacombs. Oh my God, direwolf games.
Speaker 3Oh, for heaven's sakes, you didn't know that I did. You did not know that I did.
Speaker 2I did. Is it Direwolf games? I?
Speaker 3totally knew that Damn a Direwolf should be sending us.
Speaker 2Okay, yes, earth, oh God I recommend-no the question is the age range of Earth.
Speaker 3What is it Blank up? You know?
Speaker 214 and up.
Speaker 3You know it's just because you've been suck in the bag.
Speaker 2I can't be honest, it's like I'm sorry. How can I not edit this podcast?
Speaker 3Come on, wait Was.
Speaker 2I right, yeah, so far I got two Right.
Speaker 3Okay.
Speaker 2Who does Blu-Won City? Oh jeez, Like what do you mean? Who does it? Like you published it. I'll never guess that. Is it a? Is it a big publisher?
Speaker 3Yes, very big. Seaman oh my gosh, you got it right as.
Speaker 2Everybody in the whole convention just goes okay, okay, okay. That lady on the culture over there. Okay, she's beating up that guy like 20 minutes ago, and now she's a designer. Well, there's two people who designed it. I'm gonna say Bruna Cathalia is one and the other one is somebody who I don't know. Oh, it's right, I don't know. Oh, it's Reiner Knitzia. That's right, that is a Knitzia game, because I pointed that out, I'm a Knitzia, that is Knitzia. Our Germany listener three out of four.
Speaker 3Thank you very much, reiner.
Speaker 2Three out of four so far.
Speaker 3I thought you're gonna get them. We literally like talked about that.
Speaker 2How do we do that? Three out of four I.
Speaker 3Really thought you had that one.
Speaker 2I should have. I should have because I was like hey, it's a Knitzia game, okay, one last game.
Speaker 3Oh, do you remember? Okay, need one of the designers on troll fest, troll fest. We got a game called troll fest.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's a fiduci Bruno, fiduci Well.
Speaker 3Okay, we got it.
Speaker 2Well, that game seems really awesome. Hey, let me see that. Oh, okay, picture my.
Speaker 3It's gonna be a lot of so sorry, troll fest.
Speaker 2I've only seen this. Well, I've never seen this anywhere, but I've heard some pretty cool stuff about it.
Speaker 3It doesn't matter what it looks like, it's kind of cute, it's cute.
Speaker 2She's cool, art, art. So the whole, the whole thing behind this game is you. You create a rock band. Oh, and three to six players you met. Oh, had I not Fail, fail, fail. That's right, we actually have one friend that we could probably bring out.
Speaker 3We got two.
Speaker 2Yeah, we have a couple friends that could price yeah that's a shame. Why would that not be a two player?
Speaker 3You know, it's probably so old that they didn't do a variant or something. Oh, it's 2021.
Speaker 2That's not that old sweet. Oh, I thought it was older than that and.
Speaker 3We'll find a friend.
Speaker 2So yeah, come on over, come on out to Phoenix gone, and now we'll figure out how to play together.
Speaker 3Hmm.
Speaker 2That's a shame.
Speaker 3What other games do we do by? I'm so tired about that why don't you tell everybody what games we bought?
Speaker 2Well but are we still doing a quiz.
Speaker 3No okay. Let's see that you got five out of four, four to five.
Speaker 2I got four out of five. Yes, yeah, that's pretty awesome for a spontaneous, it is.
Speaker 3It's just good for it was you've been, I've been not doing, not well.
Speaker 2I've not been doing well on quizzes. Always a good quiz when Angie jumps out of her seat. Hold it this way, okay. Paris new Eden I've been looking at this one for a while. So post apocalyptic games are my jam. I just I just like that theme and this one it seems like it's a dice placement that's my jam seems to be a game that people are a little bit wish you.
Speaker 2Well, I don't want, not the wish you wash. That's not it. Either you like it or you hate it. Almost right, I'll like you. Let you guys know how I feel about it, but it seems pretty neat.
Speaker 3And then, as I said before, we got boom-boom city. This is something I heard a lot of people talking about, and then not in the bag, we also got an acronym.
Speaker 2All the essential edition. Oh god, that was a steal it's. He got for like 30 bucks.
Speaker 3And then we got I got glass road Uve. Maybe he's our germy. Listen, we haven't figured that out could be.
Speaker 2Could be, could be.
Speaker 3And oh, ten, I picked up ten the card game. And I picked up that because the Murph brothers like it okay. Because I, you know, I roll in with the Murph's, rolling with the Murph's, and I probably owe something to Nick.
