‘Sword and Shield’ – Episode 2 – “It’s a Conspiracy!”

Friday, February 26th, 2016

Hey everyone! We’re back with another episode of Sword and Shield. I guess some of you actually liked it, so we did another episode. This week, we’ve got Andrew Pegg-Wheat. If you’ve ever ordered a card from the store and recieved it by mail, Andrew is the guy who probably packed the card for you and shipped it. On this week’s episode, we talk about some Pokemon, Netrunner, and then tackle Conspiracy 2: The Empty Throne. However, Wizards has been having fun and changed the name again. Now it’s Conspiracy 2: Empty Throne!

 

Also in this episode, my mic sounded low. I’m always working on perfecting the sound quality, so let me know if you have any suggesstion (or if you want to buy me some professional equipment). Anyways, sit back and enjoy the show. Don’t forget to share it with your friends as well!

Sword And Shield Ep.1 – Are We On To Something?

Thursday, February 18th, 2016

It’s been a while. But we’re back and we’re trying something new here. We all know it’s impossible to get a minute alone with Derek Lloyd. Somehow, we were able to get him alone for almost an hour! In what could be a continuing series, Derek takes time from his busy day to talk about the store. We touch upon games we’re playing as well as some upcoming events at the store. Some of the other subjects we tackle include Eternal Masters, PAX East, and the move from Plainville to Norton.

 

 

Here’s a picture of the trophies he mentions for the 2HG tournament happening this weekend.
