Behind The Shield – Episode 38 – “Talking a little bit about Commander”

Friday, October 28th, 2016

On this week’s show, we tackle some of the new Commander 2016 previews. I’m not always into the format, but every time I talk about it, you can head me get more and more into it. If anything, I’ve always found it to be a fun project to work on. I had a buddy who got out of the game a long time ago, but he kept one commander deck and of course it had all of the best looking cards in it. So I’ve taken it upon myself to build a really pretty commander deck. It may not win, it may not have any kind of strategy, but at least it will look good!

Behind The Shield – Episode 37 – “Prepping for a Grand Prix”

Friday, October 21st, 2016

I don’t know if you’ve noticed by now, but I don’t like to talk too much. However, I was surprised when Andrew wanted to ask me some questions in regards to what my experience was attending an M:TG Grand Prix. I think I rambled for quite a bit, but you may find what I have to say interesting. Hope you enjoy the rest of the show.

Friday, October 7th, 2016

On this week’s episode, Derek pays us another visit to talk about the amount of prep work that goes into DMing one of his DnD sessions. It’s great insight as to how to enhance your gaming session if you’ve been looking for insider tips and tricks. Of course, we have a lot of the usual: we talk about the games we’ve played, some gaming news, and star trek sneaks its way into the program. Remind me to fire our copywriter.

Behind The Shield – Episode 34 – “LFG”

Friday, September 30th, 2016

Playing games can be a lot of fun, but playing games by yourself can be quite boring. In this week’s episode we cover one of the most asked questions in the shop and that’s how can others find a group to play with? In addition to that we’ve got the latest in gaming news, talk about what we’ve been playing this week, and maybe some Star Trek nonsense. Enjoy the show!

Behind The Shield – Episode 33 – “What is a Vorthos?”

Friday, September 23rd, 2016

It was a slow news week, but Amanda treated us to some shared knowledge about what it means to be a Vorthos. She’s been keeping up with the stories they’ve been publishing on the MTG mothersite and clued some of us in as to what was going on in the world of Magic: The Gathering. It’s really great to hear how the story connects to the cards so many of us overlook as we play them. The next time you get a chance, maybe you could take some time and look into the current story of Magic: The Gathering and enlighten yourself as to what’s going on in the world of the game you play.
