On The Button (A Star Wars Unlimited Podcast)

Episode 42 arrives, which means we have finally achieved Douglas Adams' nirvana of knowing.  Homeworlds pre-releases are here, and the team of Wes, Ian, and Trey all have experiences to relate.  Turns out that maybe while everyone was focused on Hemlock, Tarfful turned out to be one of the best leaders in limited this set. The upcoming release schedule, recent attendance numbers, and supposed shortage/late shipment of Homeworlds product are all discussed before Trey imparts some of his folksy Twin Suns wisdom on us all.

We're down a man this week but the podcast soldiers on!  Homeworlds pre-releases are right around the corner; now that the full spoiler is out, what should you be expecting compared to Ashes of the Empire?  Wes does a bit of a deep dive and analysis looking at the card pool and pointing out some key cards to look for.  Trey combs through the leader list from Homeworlds with an eye towards abusing one or more of them in Twin Suns.

It's time to get caught up with the latest in SWU as the boys gather to talk about the latest Planetary Qualifier in Austin, the most recent Sector Qualifier in Fort Worth, and what's next on the horizon for competitive play.  The announced delay for Homeworlds carbonite gets some air time before we take our first look as a group at the Homeworlds spoiler list and highlight bits and bobs that have caught our interest - or our ire! - as well as pointing out some leaders that look particularly delectable in Twin Suns.  Last, but not least, Trey graces everyone with the first installment of his Twin Suns Corner.

It's been coming since the complete spoiler for Ashes of the Empire was released, but finally Cad Bane finds his head on the chopping block.  Wes, Ian, and Trey meet up to talk first reactions, whether they think more is necessary or warranted, and what the impact might be for Premier going forward.  The idea of players advocating for banning the very deck they are playing is explored, as well as "Tier 0" versus "Tier 1" or "Tier 2" decks.  Cascade is out as the head of the judge program, and Trey shares another round of the latest Twin Suns drama.  All this and more on this week's episode!

The time has come: an episode dedicated to one of our favorite formats, Twin Suns!  The boys spend a few moments at the top of the cast ruminating about the current state of Premier before spending the bulk of the time pontificating about the joys of multiplayer Star Wars Unlimited.  Everyone talks about what it is that draws them to the format before moving on to talk about dos and don'ts, and closing out with some TS deckbuilding tips.
