At The Table with The Dice Tower - To Go Order

About this episode

The hosts discuss games to bring while traveling, share news, and tell a boardgaming horror story.

This time, Julie has some news, Tom's excited for Summer, and Eric wants to play games on vacation. We discuss the various games that live in our bags, just in case there's a chance to play them. Plus, we have a new Tale of Boardgaming Horror, and a heaping helping of Roses, Thorns, and Hula Hoops. 00:50 - Spring and The Christmas of Boardgames 01:51 - Dice Tower East and Library Changes 03:04 - Cruise is Live 03:42 - A Mythical Game Bag 05:09 - Julie's Big News 06:45 - Traveling With Games - Game Bags 09:02 - Wandering Merchants at Gen Con 10:15 - Stashing Games In Non-Gaming Bags 13:51 - Why Button Shy? 16:11 - Making Play Seamless 17:16 - Trying to Make Friends on Trips 19:20 - Footprint/Table Space 21:42 - Any Lost Games, Rules, Boxes? 22:25 - Eric Is Quivering Wrong 24:15 - Tale of Boardgaming Horror? 34:22 - Bare Bones 39:00 - Coming of Age 45:20 - Jewel Box 47:55 - Sanibel 51:07 - For Northwood! 44:49 - Rising Cultures Questions?
