7LandHand: Episode 113 – Azul

It’s time to stick tiny coloured porcelain bits to the walls of your Portuguese palace…don’t have a palace, don’t sweat it. Michael Kiesling has you covered with his hit board game, Azul. Aaron’s back on the board game podcast with Matt and David. Much geek discussion occurs, a Matt’s quiz (which is half-decent), and an Aaron’s Top Ten (Twenty). Much of the show becomes a discussion of board games across the ages. Something for everyone in this month’s show.
We announce the winner of Photosynthesis, plus everything you need to get hold of your copy of Azul.

7LandHand: Episode 111 – 5th Annual Beer and Pizza Show

It’s the 5th Annual 7LandHand Beer and Pizza Show. This year, LIVE from Good Games Cannington. We reflect on the year that was (2017) with thirty of our closest gaming friends. Discussion includes: MTG Sets from 2017, Essen board game recommendations for 2018, and we even check in with the Mirror Online to see what garbage board game recommendations they made for Christmas presents. Kai does forty-seconds of 40k LIVE…and Matt baffles everyone with a series of questions he called Matt’s Quiz.
Lots of beer, lots of pizza, lots of laughs.
Happy New Year, everyone.

7LandHand: Episode 110 – Photosynthesis

We’re wearing Firs as we Maple some ‘Sick Amores.’ Trees, Light…chlorophyll, it’s time to photosynthesise. It’s the most beautiful game created, which we then litter with a Matt’s quiz. Jaime stretches a Photosynthesising Top Ten to include synthetic beings (much better), and we announce the winner of last month’s GOTM: Queendomino.
You are the sunshine of my life…

7LandHand: Episode 105 – Lovecraft Letter

You have a cousin in Egypt, and they’re in trouble…sound like Love Letter to you? Of course, it does. Lovecraft Letter reinvents Seiji Kanai’s card deduction classic, and with a new spin, changes the dynamics of this short-game favourite forever. Matt gives us a love letter inspired quiz, and there’s Jaime’s Top Ten. Plus, discount passwords, and the winner of Unearth.

7LandHand: Episode 103 – Unearth

It’s all above ground like a post-hibernation rodent, but this is no groundhog day. Unearth is here, brand new and sparkling, straight from Brotherwise, to 7LH, to your ears. We have a new segment: Jaime’s Top Ten (with an incredible theme tune from Danul), Matt’s quiz, a winner for our Tokaido give-away, and Matt thinks out loud…several times.

7LandHand Extra: Episode 102 – Nine Alan Spoilers

Here’s a podcast to give all other podcasts +1/+1, it’s the pre-pre-release Ixalan spoiler show! It sounds like poetry read by a warrior named, Huatli. We do listener questions and give-away our last ‘Hour of Devastation’ booster. Aaron and Kai lock Ceratop horns in MTG Card Quiz and Flavour Text. As with all good Magic the Gathering shows, we have 40 seconds of 40K with 40 Kai. Big news in Neets and Twooze…and Hot garbage and Premonitions are a bust, for different reasons.
