#248: Serge Laget

Our favourite Serge Laget game is Senji. "Senji" is a contraction of "Sengoku Jidai," or Warring States Period, which refers to over a century of near total civil war in Japan that started in 1467. Scholars differ as to when it ended, but mostly we can agree that it started when I traded Huey my grandpa in exchange for boats and then he shipped ol' gramps to Louis' estate. I found this out the hard way when my armies marched on Château Louis to be met with my ex-grandpa. I was a bit miffed, but I was able to use Huey's boat to steal his best stuff, so I guess I got over it. Besides, Dewey gave me Huey's son in exchange for some weapons.01:19 AYURIS: The Red Cathedral (Israel Cendrero & Sheila Santos, Devir Games, 2020)Games Played Last Week:02:35 -Autobahn (Fabio Lopiano and Nestore Mangone, Alley Cat Games, 2022)08:57 -Soda Smugglers (Reiner Knizia, Bitewing Games, 2022)11:11 -Woodcraft (Ross Arnold and Vladimír Suchý, Delicious Games, 2022)12:37 -Chinatown (Karsten Hartwig, Z-Man, 1999)15:21 -Atiwa (Uwe Rosenberg, Lookout Games, 2022)20:39 -Eclipse: Second Dawn for the Galaxy (Touko Tahkokallio, Lautapelit.fl, 2020)23:15 -Karate Tomate (Reiner Knizia, AMIGO, 2018)23:31 -Monikers (Alex Hague and Justin Vickers, CMYK, 2015)25:45 -Herd Mentality (Rich Coombs and Dan Penn, Big Potato, 2020)26:50 -Senji (Bruno Cathala & Serge Laget, Asmodee, 2008)News (and why it doesn't matter):27:00 Pearl Games closed by Asmodee, but Sébastien Dujardin might resurrect it28:37 SVWAG Videos!
