Essen has been and gone but we've got to play many of the hot new releases at GRIDCON 3, a Gaming Rules run convention primarily focused on the playing of games rather than the commercial presence.  We have a jam-packed expansion pack episode for you!!!

FIRST PLAYER: N/A
OTHER PLAYERS: Adrian, JP, Davey & Kerley

OVERVIEW
In this week's expansion pack, the group get together to chat about their experiences at GRIDCON 3. The convention based in the South West UK ran by Gaming Rules! In this episode you'll learn:

- Which games we've managed to play on each day and our initial thoughts
- That Lacrimosa could do with a "Simply Red" expansion
- What everyone's "Game of the Weekend" was
- that even the fry up gets a review
- how to navigate the bring & buy just like TKMaxx
- how personal GRIDCON feels to attend (spoiler it's awesome)
