Matt is back with an episode we recorded before Gen Con. This week we're catching up with him on all of the new components introduced with Codex 4. His premium takes are finally bestowed upon us and we will learn the good stuff finally! Also Hunter comes to you twice from a post-Gen Con universe to talk about the expansion announcement and give you some taste of what was a Gen Con for the ages.

Today we're rounding out our Codex Four coverage with our final new Galactic Event (It's actually kinda old) Minor Factions! It's a super solid mode that I recommend whole heartedly to anyone who might be a little squeamish about these alternate game modes. It's not too much craziness and there is still plenty of room for classic Twilight Imperium strategy. My guest today is Jadiim Jedi who you might recognize from the Tournament 6 online Finals and the Portland Intergalactical finals from this year.

This week we're talking about what is likely the goofiest of the new Galactic Events! It basically blows the lid off the tech game and enables everyone to lend each other into an apocalypse of SHARING. Our guest this week is El Blasto who was featured in the Finals of our online tournament this year and is also an accomplished streamer and commentator of our beloved game.

This week Hunter sits down with community member Andcat (and frequent merch collaborator) to talk about our experience with the Age of Exploration Galactic event. This is one of the more reasonable events and I think it brings a fun chill experience to the game. We moved the rundown to the end with this episode and you might want to stick around for it if you have missed having Matt in these episodes.   For Twilight Imperium Tournaments and SCPT live-shows, click here: https://linktr.ee/spacecatspeaceturtles   Music provided by Ben Prunty.

Hey there friends! We had a lot of plans blow up on us last week so we've had to pivot a bunch of plans, I promise we'll be back to normal next week! For now I've got an experimental episode for you. Hunter is going to listen to episode 26 of SCPT and give you his PODCASTER'S commentary. It's a weird thing we've done once before and it's a great nostalgic way to listen to our old ideas and compare them to the current SCPT paradigms. This old episode was originally called "Kingmaking and Support for the Throne" and it features Matt, Hunter, and our buddy Alex. It's a fun old episode to think about in the context of our current talk around winemaking.   You can buy tickets to our LIVE SHOW in Portland OR on June 27th at 8:30pm right here: https://kickstandcomedy.crowdwork.com/shows/space-cats-peace-turtles-live?date=2025-06-27T20:30:00 You can buy tickets to the Portland Intergalactical Tournament here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2025-twilight-imperium-intergalactical-tournament-portland-tickets-1350685680229 You can join the Intergalactical Discord here: https://discord.gg/j5FwYsRW99   Music provided by Ben Prunty.

This week we continue an SCPT tradition and provide advice for the listeners out there in the congregation that do not actually play TI. It's a great time to get into this game! Especially before the homework INTENSIFIES maybe? In this silly episode Matt and Hunter walk you through all of the different angles you can approach Twilight Imperium from. It's a newcomer invitation with a lot of our go to common sense advice baked in. In the second half of the episode the boys audit themselves and explain exactly how the business works.
