Space Cats Peace Turtles

It's a Muaat Guide! Embers of Muaat is one of those factions that some people in the community insist is "actually really good." I haven't been convinced, but they do have tools that can FEEL good if everything else went right. What does it take to get this faction from their bad start and to a game that feels good?

More Arcs! And this time, we've got Hunter around. He's been thinking about the Overseer for months now and is ready to get it all off of his chest. Meanwhile, EJ and Matt are back, this time with the Upstart and Rebel. It's a mix of Leaders that all seem to want to strike very early in different ways which honestly made it incredibly difficult to play them against each other so many times! Some games of Arcs are all about chapter 5 and it turns our some games the whole game gets played in the first two chapters and the rest of the time you're just living with your mistakes...

Sit your butts down and get ready to be schooled in the classroom by your god-tier Winnu player: THE MATT MARTENS. Jk Winnu is bad and we'll cover in depth the why and the how. There is a lot of useful information here for those of you that feel the determination to pilot them regardless of their ineptitude.

We've got one more episode about the big Championship match we had back on May 4th. When the Finals finish, everyone involved is always so exhausted that it's impossible to squeeze in any post-game report or interview. So instead, we decided to wait a week and take a full hour to hang out with this year's winner! See, good things come to those who wait. Music provided by Ben Prunty.

In this episode we talk about the Finals of the SCPT 2024 Twillight Imperium tournament. THERE ARE SPOILERS. So don't listen if you don't want the outcome of the tournament spoiled. We also talk generally about how the tournament went and what we see as the future of our events. It's a bit of a beach episode, but one that could have future consequences.   Music and Sounds by Brian Kupillas. https://wanderinglake.bandcamp.com/   To learn more about our Discord, Patreon, Merch, and more, visit https://spacecatspeaceturtles.com/

Board game enthusiast Tom Brewster joins the hosts to discuss the Agitator, Quartermaster, and Noble Leaders in Arcs. They explore strategies, card importance, faction insights, player count dynamics, and meta evolution in an engaging and humorous conversation.

This week we're back to our classic formula and doing a deep dive on one of our favorite aggressive factions: THE L1Z1X. This one has a fun energy and we really go to town on these guys, I wish we had more positives to say but I think spiritually L1 is too cool to be the best so let's just enjoy them for what they do best. Watch the Semi-Finals this weekend! Game 4 and 5 will be on Saturday and Sunday starting at 10AM central US time. https://www.twitch.tv/spacecatspeaceturtles   Music provided by Ben Prunty.
