This was such a fun episode to record. There was a lot of energy and some great discussions. We tackled some Pokemon Go, Magic the Gathering, and even took a DnD Quiz. the quiz is something I think most of you will have an opinion on. You’ll either love us or hate us. Whatever your feeling is, we had a blast taking it and will do more activities like it in the future. Enjoy the show!

Friday, July 8th, 2016

We’ve got a really good episode this week. Andrew finally got Sam on the show and we picked his brain about RPGs. If left alone, he would go on for hours about this stuff. His knowledge base must go on forever, sadly these podcasts only run for so long. While we didn’t have enough time with him today, rest assured, we’ll have him on again. Sorry about the audio this week. It’s my fault cause I told Andrew that his software was lying. Oops. Anyways, we’ll be back to our usual sounds next week. Enjoy the show!

This was a week of firsts for the cast. We had quite a setup at the Norton store and so Andrew and I had to learn some tech to get everything working correctly. Thank goodness the internet exists. Other than that, we returned to the Norton location because the “go ahead” to open was approved the new store’s first day will be July 5th. So if you’re nearby, come check us out at 175 Mansfield Ave, Norton, MA. Thanks for listening!

Another podcast without Sims. Turns out he was available this week but due to miscommunication he accidentally got excluded and we recorded in the new Norton location without him. Lots of talk with Derek and Chase about the new location, plans for opening, and what’s going to be happening in both Battleground locations over the next month. Don’t worry Sims fans, he will return next week!

While Simeon is way out west taking part in E3 Andrew is left to his own devices. Today we have on the podcast somebody who has been around Battleground practically since the very beginning: our friend Serena. She and Andrew talk about the state of Role Playing Games, the impending move of our Plainville store to Norton, and games we’ve played and look forward to playing. Enjoy!
