The Periscope: Uganda Village Board Game Convention & Science Camp

We got a Periscope about a convention! We are posting this so that the episode can come out while the campaign is still available! Josh is joined by Ben, Lucky, Mercy, Arnold, and Ronald today to talk about the convention they hold in their village in the country of Uganda. They want it to grow so they can bring the love of board games, and science, to as many kids as they can. Ben helps facilitate the convention and is happy to help along the way! After a successful event in May 2022, Chrysalis will be running another Convention for children aged 8-15 at its Secondary School in Uganda.

The Torpedo! Votes for Women

Welcome to the Torpedo! A show where we give brief reviews and tell you whether the game is a hit or a miss! Our first episode features Votes for Women from Fort Circle Games.
Votes for Women is a card-driven game covering the American women's suffrage movement from 1848-1920, culminating with the ratification (or rejection) of the Nineteenth Amendment. The game provides competitive, co-operative and solitaire play, with co-operative and solitaire play against the "Oppobot."
To win, the Suffragist player must have Congress pass the proposed Amendment and then have three-fourths of the states (36 of the then 48 states) ratify the Amendment. The Opposition player wins by either preventing Congress from passing the proposed Amendment or by having 13 states reject the Amendment.
The game lasts for six turns - a turn consisting of drawing cards from the players' own decks, bidding on strategy cards, and then six rounds of card play where a player may play a card for an event or discard a card to campaign, organize or lobby Congress. If Congress has proposed the Amendment but neither 36 states have ratified nor 13 states have rejected, then the game goes to Final Voting.
