Dan Yarrington of Game Salute returns to the show to join Craig and Russ to discuss Trade Shows. How are they different than conventions, what are they like in the gaming industry?

Later we tackle the civilization building game "Clash of Cultures" from Z-man games. Does this 4-X game bring anything new to the genre? And does it have enough elephants?

And don't miss Total Fan Girl this episode as Nicole chats with some of the folks behind Pandemic.

All that and our other not-too-horrible segments including:
- Total Fan Girl
- Do You Ever Notice
- News
- Listener Resolutions
- & More

Please let us know what you thought of the show!

Finally! What happened between the last Lost Chapter and this episode if you don't mind me asking?

Been jonesing for some D6G, so can't wait to get my listen on.

Also, have you ever considered putting a link to the discussion thread for the last episode in each new thread you make (that way you could just 'jump backwards' through the D6G Dakka threads pretty easily)?

Obviously going back and adding those links isn't feasible, but you could always start from this point on...

I believe on Facebook they said it was delayed due to vacations.

YES! Been waiting for this one to see if I win the contest. Besides my usual desire to hear the show I actually have some skin in the game this time

ARG! So close!

Good stuff, as always.

One minor note regarding the rules to Clash of Cultures, and I've seen this come up in a few different places so don't feel bad.

When you issue a movement action to your troops, you are NOT allowed to move the same group of troops more than once per action. I believe Russ said that you can move 3 groups 1 time or 1 group 3 times. This is incorrect. You can move up to 3 different groups 1 hex each (as a base value, without any tech advances), but you can't move the same group more than once per movement action. If you want to move the same group again during the same turn, you need to issue another, separate move action.

Anyway, just a minor point. Keep up the great work!

Yes, the delay was due to a vacation. Sorry about that folks!

Ohhh, great catch. Can't wait to try with those corrected rules!!!
