Episode 247 – Top 10 Ridiculous Components in Board Games

To kick things off this week, we look at answers to our question of the week: Do you use the promos you get? If yes, do you have any criteria for which ones you will or will not use?

For Acquisition Disorders, Anthony looks at Flotilla and Chris looks at Tongaru.

At the table this week, Anthony reviews Old West Emprassario and Chris reviews Coloma.

Finally, in our feature this week, we look at 10 ridiculous, over-the-top, or otherwise unnecessary components in board games.
