For acquisition disorders, this week, Anthony discusses his Gen Con hotness list and Chris looks at Era: Medieval Age. 

At the table, Anthony reviews Villagers, and Chris reviews Agricola the Revised edition and discusses his first place of Le Havre. 

Finally, in the feature, the guys run through the current top 15 games on Board Game Geek.
