BR 6 Ep 147 The EPIC Episode

The Ministry Of Dice: A Dice Masters Podcast

Welcome to the 147th Episode of the Ministry of Dice – the UK based, bi-weekly best in Dice Masters podcast chat.

With the release of the new Secret Wars expansion, we have the introduction of a new card type – Epic Basic Actions. We’re going to take a closer look at these in this week’s episode, making it the EPIC episode.

We’ll start by explaining why these are Epic, both in terms of their position from the Marvel comics source material AND from their game effects. You’ll get a bit of a rundown of their comic book lore, and some chat about their game texts.

Then it’s onto to how those game-texts could be used. There’s some barmy stuff going on with the Epic Basic Actions, and we have a little chat about our initial thoughts on the pros and cons of each card’s game-text. We’ve not got to full combos yet, so drop us a line because we’re definitely coming back to this.

All this, and find out a little about how ruthless the Trial of Champions Fighting Fantasy book is…
