Episode 116 :: BGGcon 2019 Recap

Brawling Brothers Boardgaming Podcast

Recorded in War Room Studios - Albuquerque, NM : 12/10/19

This episode is brought to you by PowerMeeps.com, Academy Games and Van Ryder Games. Year and year out, BGGCon is one of our favorite boardgame conventions.... We look forward to it so very much, even calling it our "Home Con". We had some concerns going into BGGcon 2019 because of a new downtown venue, but a little bit of alcohol and a whole bunch of gaming have washed our worries away. BGGcon 2019 was absolutely outstanding and we spend this entire episode telling you WHY! Despite our 25+ games played, we've narrowed down our discussion to our 12 favorites - tune in and hear all about: Marco Polo 2, Ragusa, Discworld: Ankh-Morpork, Smartphone Inc, Deep Blue, Skull King, Babylonia, Paris: New Eden, Bora Bora, Bruxelles 1897, Egizia: Shifting Sands and Crystal Palace.
