Description
Join Andy and James as they play an unfinishable board game to completion, or die trying.
From the first 14 episodes figuring out how to play, followed by their near 100-episode practice run of 6 Turns, the guys are eyeing up the full 111-Turn game that will take them maybe the rest of their mortal lives. With weekly doses of game recap, listener mail, Andy's History Corner and tangent-friendly "Common Ground" segments, this playthrough is only achievable for the Subtle, Humble and Brave.
SPI's The Campaign For North Africa is a comically complicated board game that feels like a practical joke. Published in 1978, with no evidenced completions of the 111-Turn game, this is a behemoth board game like no other.
Learning the ropes - Ep 1 - 14
Practice Turn One - Ep 15 - 37
Practice Turns Two to Six - Ep 38 - Ep 87
Hiatus - Ep 88 - Ep 99
Full Campaign for North Africa = Ep 100 - Heat death of the universe
