Steam Powered Scoundrels #79 - Mail Fraud
Saturday Jan 25, 2025
Saturday Jan 25, 2025
Well we thought the last episode was a bit too short, so we went ahead and put this one out early for you. In this episode Doug, Vic, Roman, and Nate reveal our 'fixes' for Henchman Hardcore, as well as reveal several cards from the upcoming Bonanza Brawl expansion. 2024 saw us hard at work flexing our game design muscle, and this is what we have to show for it (besides the keyword rewrites).
