#272: Masters of the Universe and Civilization Games

Episode 272 starts out with an oldie but a goodie, Chris' Movie review segment in which he kinda talks about the Tetris movie and trails off into something else. Then the gang gets busy with the games they've been playing including Yokohama, 51st State: Ultimate Edition, Core Worlds, Starship Captains, Revive and a feature review of Masters of the Universe Clash for Eternia from CMON. Then after Tony T goes ape with the best damn news segment in the third Galaxy, the Founders discuss what makes a Civilization game.

Feature Review: Masters of the Universe: The Board Game – Clash for Eternia

When Eternia is threatened by Skeletor and his vile minions, the noble Prince Adam holds aloft the Sword of Power and proclaims, "By the Power of Grayskull, I have the power!", transforming into He-Man! Masters of the Universe: The Board Game - Clash for Eternia is a competitive one vs many or fully cooperative action-driven board game. Choose to play as the Heroic or Evil Warriors, use unique abilities on the battlefield, upgrade skills, and by the power of Grayskull, win the fight for Eternia! Players use dice rolling and character stats to move over a hex grid board and control Castle Greyskull.
