Summary

On the third installment of First Round Strategies, Matt Martens and Hunter Donaldson try to crack the puzzle that is the Clan of Saar. How strong can a glass cannon be in Twilight Imperium? What IS a Saarball? And afterwards, we follow up on community discussion about The Yssaril Tribes. Also, next week's episode will be out late, so please be patient with us as we work through the holidays. And expect it to be a bit rough around the edges as well! Sorry in advance, but it's also sure to be a very fun episode.
