TorTR #55 - A Field in Corona

Published: Aug. 16, 2013, 4 a.m.

b'The nerd train rolls on. An executive order was handed down and a last minute change in the film pick of the week was made. We expected to be in a sound studio, but ended up in A Field in England, as we review the latest Ben Wheatley film. Also, part II of our DemonWars: Reformation interview series continues with Game Designer extraordinaire, Bryan Salvatore. We talk about wicked nerdy stuff and it's a fantastic discussion about game systems, balance and old school gaming. We also have voicemails, tangents, offensive comments, character impressions and perhaps a psychotropic drug or two. Don't miss this action-packed episode, or else we'll send Ravenshadow after you!
