Summary

Are you a new or experience player trying to find a new group to play with? Or are you scheduling a game and decided to invite a new friend to join your typical group? Maybe you're looking to play online for the first time casually or in a tournament. Well we hope this episode can be a resource for you. In it we discuss what it's like to join a game with strangers and how to navigate the tricky social balances of Twilight Imperium. The Superbowl of Board Games is a pretty wild way to meet someone, and we think it's helpful if you go in with the right expectations. Music provided by Ben Prunty.
