Critical Encounters - Issue 231 - Supervillain Roundtable - XII - RRG 1.6 and More
Welcome to Issue 231 of Critical Encounters, a podcast about Marvel Champions, a Living Card Game by Fantasy Flight Games. Here we take a good look at that most critical piece of the game, the Encounter Sets. We’ll discuss those poorly understood characters, unfairly labeled Villains, and their various plans to shape humanity and benefit the planet, as well as those so-called heroes intent on thwarting them. In this Supervillain Roundtable Issue we take a look at the RRG 1.6, Weekly One Shots and touch on that traitor (?) Magneto.
