Alex joins Ben, Ray, and Jon to discuss King Beyond the Wall 666, which took place on August 9th and 10th in Brantford, Ontario. Ray and Jon recap their game in which Abyssal Berserkers went head-to-head with a shooting Northern Alliance list. Our recommendation to the rules committee is to make the sacrificial imps either worth more (10 points for the regiment/15 for the horde) or remove them altogether as an option for the berserkers. Also, who was right most often on the match-up cast? Listen to find out!
