Boardgame Babylon returns with a new episode in the In Depth series. We've covered Power Grid, Ra, Agricola and Caylus. Add to that list one of the most elegant designs in game history: Rock-Paper-Scissors. Join me and RPS strategist Rob Pirone for a discussion of the game's mechanics, strategy, and many variants. Rob promises to teach you how to win every game of RPS you'll ever play.

A word of warning: I recorded this over Skype and it would appear that there is some bug through the VOIP that makes it sound like I am breathing heavily whenever I am not speaking. It's clearly not me using a sub-standard microphone for this one podcast but an actual bug in Skype. They apologize for the excess noise.

Thanks for downloading and listening to Boardgame Babylon.
