This week we continue an SCPT tradition and provide advice for the listeners out there in the congregation that do not actually play TI. It's a great time to get into this game! Especially before the homework INTENSIFIES maybe? In this silly episode Matt and Hunter walk you through all of the different angles you can approach Twilight Imperium from. It's a newcomer invitation with a lot of our go to common sense advice baked in. In the second half of the episode the boys audit themselves and explain exactly how the business works. It's not complicated lol but you wanted to know!

SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY! Prepare yourself for the high octane action of probably something like 12 to 14 hours of TWILIGHT IMPERIUM!

We play some normal TI, but also some very strange TI, and this episode is all about breaking down those strange games. It’s a strange episode, but IT’S THE HOLIDAYS and we’re going to stream literally all day on Dec. 23...so bear with us...
