Question: for woodland alliance marshall law. If there's 1 bird, 1 cat and 1 vagabond, does count as 3 warriors of another player for marshall law to get activated? Or for 2 birds and 1 cat? Or does all 3 warriors need to be from the same faction since its said 'another player' and not 'other players' ?
Or a fun review that (like all RU-vid videos and channels) would love to have people click on it. Instead of dying on the algorithm. Go buy a pony and criticize it for not being a horse.
JOTL and Oathsworn have both kept me occupied for months now and are two games I constantly think about. I’ve been loving them so much, I have yet to make time to play some of the new games that got delivered to me recently like Flame and Fang, Fall of Lumen, Legends of Void, and others. Backlog for ages which is a beautiful thing dare I say!
My friend has Caverna, but I have Agricola All Creatures Big and Small and Ora et Labora. Agricola ACBS is a good 2 player game. Only 8 rounds and you have to hit the ground running. All those Rosenberg games make me feel like I have no time tho. 😅
Hi! Great video. I have one question about ship facilities. You say that the first action you take (lab, barrack and so forth) is for free. I Can’t find that in any rules. Can you point me in the right direction?
Miss you Jess. Praying you can get the money you need to go back to the channel full time again. Can't wait to see those Root videos. I play Root solo all the time since all my friends and family think it's too hard T_T. I actually just got Arcs. Cole Wehrle's new game. It's a space empire game where you are trying to gain the most power (points) by achieving the ambitions that are valuable that chapter. It's simpler than Root but fun in its own way. I still need to try out the small campaign mode. I just unboxed, punched out and organized the Campaign box. I just have to get someone to play with me now since it doesn't have a solo mode. But from what it sounds like, the base game is about these four different empires battling for control of the Reach. While the Campaign takes place years later when that victorious empire has begun to crumble and a horrifying Blight has begun to consume the outer planets of the Reach. So you take hold of various fates that give you powers and goals to accomplish that tell branching storylines depending on how well you achieved your fate. It's only 3 games long too. So it's a much more manageable campaign.
For me the game's I've been thinking a lot about lately are Frosthaven, my group finished Gloomhaven a couple of months back and have just started Frost. We're only about 4 scenarios in and really enjoying it, but I'm stil lthinking about it and how it differs. I'm thinking about Dragon Eclipse from Aaken Realms. I backed it so me and my niece could play it. She's a huge Pokemon fan and thought the game looked like fun so I fighured it would be worth a shot. Outside of this, I'm spending a lot of time thinking about a couple of RPG campaigns. I'm writing a D&D campaign that's set in modern Dayton Ohio that is shaping up to be a lot of fun. I'm also putting together notes on a Through the Breach campaign that's a gothic/drawing room mystery. Beyond that I just got the PDF for X Crawl Classic and its one of my favorite settings so I'm spending so time digging into that one.
Its awesome that youre picking up new jobs to support the family. But do you have the owner’s permission to shoot inside their home? Some ppl may not like their privacy invaded even if theres nothing there
Reasonable question. No location or address location was shared and nothing being shown goes beyond what you can find on Zello or other home posting sights with photos and videos breaking down the full space. If there was personal information or items around I would never film and post a video walking through someone’s space.
@@Quackalope I think it's more about engaging in something other than what you were hired to do in that space. If I was the home owner and somehow found out that you're doing something other than what I hired you to do, I wouldn't be pleased. It's certainly not illegal but I wouldn't hire you again. Here's an extremely extreme example. Would you be comfortable if you hired someone to do work around the house and later find out that he had sex in every one of your rooms and uploaded to pornhub? There's no damage done to the house, nothing private was exposed but it's not quite ethically right.
5 Games I keep thinking about Crokinole (we literally just bought a board at Origins) Vailed Fate Kinfire Chronicles Nightfall Arcs (we picked up a copy from our FLGS and really want to dive in) Faraway (this little small box gem is getting so much love lately)
Thank you for sharing this glimpse of your life and dreams :D The past month I have been overrun by the arrival of so many delayed Kickstarters that I have no Idea where to put them aside from getting a new apartment or even house :P There is too little time and opportunity to play enough. So I sit at my home office computer and have some videos like yours to listen too. Really liked the title :D The games I am currently dreaming of while working: - Slay the Spire (this is currently the most played but can't get enough of game :D ) - Frosthaven - somehow I want but don't want to continue after 53 scenarios ... the scenarios have such a different style, are a bit clutterd and have to many hidden parts that the constant looking up of new numbered sections makes me not want to play it ... loved the simple streight forward all can be seen from the beginning system of Gloomhaven. - Kingdom Death Monster - I have primed all necessary Gambler's Chest but not painted yet and now I also have Black Knight and Frogdog is on its way ... - Agemonia - really want to get this to the table. Love how colourful it is in imagery and story - Harakiri - watch the early videos and preview plays that pop up and think this came out fabulous :D
Man, you gotta prioritize your family over board games, not finding a job that can fit into your content creation schedule. Make fewer, more thoughtful, higher quality board game videos once a week. SU&SD has been doing it that way for years and they're the cream of the crop.
Happy you are finding a way…keep grinding. I have made 100 videos as of my last and your channel was the one that inspired me to start. I found you when I was looking to learn more about this “amazing” ;) game called wingspan where I found your interview with Elizabeth then found this game called ROOT and all your play throughs that I am obsessed with to this day. You introduced me to many wonderful games and I know you will do the same for countless others. Just keep walking forward…
Have always dreamed about getting a twilight game, just only two in my group that want too. Knocked out two of my solo games, legacy of yu and undaunted Normandy, finishing bugs and buttons, so solving that itch. Always thinking about either brass, feast of odin and arnak. And when all else fails, list building and turn zero against meta lists for star wars legion
We just started with Root. We bought the expansion set. Just saw the bot. Haven’t played the bot yet. Can you say more about version two of the bot where to find it? Do I have to buy some thing to use it or is virgin to the box, just some download of a PDF?
Currently painting at a Barnes And Nobles that is being renovated... Thinking about this upcoming weekend - getting a game of Twilight Imperium in! I'm so stoked for it
Hey! Weird question, but in your earlier videos you had a gray felt/wool blanket or mat on your table. Do you know what it was or where i can buy something like that? Thanks!
I’m at the end of working 61.5 of the last 72 hrs… I’m dreaming of these 5 games -7th Citadel (gonna power through this solo) -Revive (can’t get enough of it) -Clank! Catacombs (soooo fun trying to escape with tons of loot!) -Gloomhaven (my group is a blast to hang with) -Beyond the Sun (just got the expansion!)
Just a short story about Quackalope and me:"For years I have Q in my subscriberList since I watched Zombicide vides. Most of the times I read the headlines about boardgames, then I saw you going to Israel and your marry, that was intressting but I still did not really watch your videos. And then there was you scandal, which turns out to be a very human missunderstanding writing and reading mail (ohh that was horrible). And now it comes. That was the turning point for me to watch your videos and I really liked them, I still do. I just wanna bring you some light in your life, show you that this was not allaround bad." I really love your vids. My prayers to you and to your wife (I hope that is okay, prayers from a christian, but I guess god will know)."
