2D6 Dungeon - Level 1: The Entry playthrough 

Hi Ceephour! I live in Canada. I love these gaming books! Can you please show me how you placed your order for this particular level? Thanks!

​@@chadua76the paid version includes levels 1-10. any of the links in the description should get you there :)

Hi Toby, thank you so much! I am so bummed I didn't get around to doing this while the 2D6 Realm crowdfunding campaign was running as I had intended, but late pledges are open! The "permission" thing was a big moment for me when reading the rule book, I wanted to make sure I mentioned it. Now that I had a chance to get some time with the game I'm going back over the rules and clearing up any lingering questions I may have had (turns out playing a bit helps internalize rules, who knew?).

No problem Craig, the coverage you're doing now is fab. I'm very impressed with your production by the way. Oh and I hope that email came through! Cheers, Toby]@@CeePhour

Yes sir it did! Thank you so much! Having the bookmarked PDF is a massive improvement for me. I think I know how I have the no-bookmarks version (I explained in the email, hopefully clearly). @TobyLancaster_DR_Games

I hope your adventures are going well! :)

I have heard of people taking their softcover versions in to Kinkos or OfficeDepot and they can cut the binding off and put a spiral it. I am really tempted to try this with the Tables Codex.

Five days ago I found my 3DS XL in the closet. I have 100%'d 1, 2, and 4 (I didn't play 3) but forgot I had bought 5 and Nexus! So I fired up 5 with a fresh save and am currently on the 4th floor in the first stratum and having the greatest time 😁

That guy was a monster!

Holy cow, good work! I'd love to hear about a memorable moment from your adventures.

@@CeePhour There are times when the deeper levels have you on the edge of your seat! We spoke on BGG a few weeks ago, if you remember.

Yes, I do :)

Long time no see friend! It was a bit to get all this going but it works great for my purposes: "screwing around on the internet" 😁

I completely didn't even think about the pouch I was search was something I COULD TAKE. I was wondering how I could get more - buying them in town or whatever. This should be called out in the rule book! :) The Chessex mats are great! I don't care for the new ones (hex OR squares, and dark colors). Maybe I'm missing something about them.

I do have a 4-panel screen that would be great for me playing off camera. Thanks for the suggestion! Anything to keep from flipping back to the beginning for the common charts. The levels charts are all in a group (2 levels per group) so it would be convenient to stay in that section.

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate the feedback on the look. I spend way too much time thinking about how to make everything visible 😁 I haven't played Rad Zone Totality but it does look really fun. I'll add it to the ever growing list 😅

Thank you! I enjoyed playing, and and grateful you took time to comment. :)

100%!

I bet. I looks amazing.

This is a really good idea, I have had this in the back of my mind for some time - I need to stop buying binders... :D

They look amazing!

Absolutely. I'm great at forgetting useful things like that! >

I hope your adventures in Coradine are going well!

Exactly! They were a wonderful fresh vision of that style of dungeon crawler, and best of all - portable! I managed to 100% Etrian 1, 2, and 4, but I never really played 3, 5, or Nexus. I recently unearthed my 3DS from the depths of my closet and started playing 5 and having an absolute blast.

I'm glad to know I'm not alone in spending too much time on my comments :) I always type too much and it takes like 45 minutes longer than it should due to my obsessive edits and corrections. I don't think I can definitively answer, but I can certain share some of my thoughts, right or wrong, on both. The good news is that both are less expensive than your average game. Neither are "table hogs", however UFS has a long skinny board when assembled "correctly", so it can be a bit awkward, but the board is assembled from multiple pieces, so you can arrange it however you need. You also need space to roll dice. I have very limited experience with UFS - I have only ever played "level 0" a bunch of times, but I LOVE it. The setup time is two minutes, and the game takes a lot of thought and tough decision making to win. I adore tough decisions and "stakes" in my games. And UFS delivers "stakes" in that when you place a white die (two are white, three are grey) you have to reroll the remainder of your dice pool. If you like all of the numbers you have you have to plan out what order to place them in to have the least amount of re-rolling. There is a campaign mode in the box, I've never looked at it, but it looks fairly straightforward (instead of the Roswell base you have different bases, so your action spaces are laid out differently). There are different sections for the board, so that changes up as well, but ultimately, the dice decide the flow of the game. I can imagine how it would feel like solving the same puzzle at a different angle every time. Like most deck builders Warp's Edge feels like there is "a clear best move to make" every time you pull your hand of tokens - and priority is not getting yourself shot (you die, you lose), unless you can take down a section of the Mothership (you blow up the Mothership, you win). The puzzle of the game is sorting out where to spend your tokens to accomplish those two things. There is always "best token placement" which is great fun to try and figure out (another game that gives me that feel, Mage Knight, comes to mind). It has added twist of using your power cards to spice things up, enemy ships are random, your ships are all different, and each Mothership has their own twist. My gut feeling is that it offers a lot more variety and replayability than UFS. And after 38 minutes of talking myself through my thoughts as I typed this (over and over and over) it appears I have talked myself into perhaps Warp's Edge would be the better choice. :) Also, the "Anomaly" expansion for Warp's Edge adds incredible value. I don't have "The Viren Invasion" expansion, so I have no idea about that one. edit: 14 hours later... Ok, so I posted the UFS level 0 intro video and the comments there make it very clear that playing through the UFS campaign is very much worth playing and it opens up the game a ton more by unlocked all kinds of other boards (and more?) - so apparently "there is more research to be done!" :)

The door die is 0, 1, 2, 3 EXITS, (not entrances:) ). Also, you can't have 0 if you walked into the room. You can only have one exit on each wall, and not the same wall from your entrance, so it's either a dead end, one/two/three (all walls if possible) exists.

This helps a lot! It makes sense even numbered floors have a boss blocking the next section. I just wish this was a little clearer.

Not that I am aware of, but maybe you could homebrew something.

In the video description I put the link to the files on itch.io for the "demo version", which is the Floor 1 tables. Floors 2-10 are from the Tables Codex of the purchased version. I got the bizarre large die from "Dollar Tree". I went back today looking for a black one and all they had was yellow! :(

Who knows what is in these tables! I have barely scratched the surface :) I'd wager not, but who knows. What I think you have is a really good idea for Toby to explore in a future expansion.

Are you looking for this link: drgames.co.uk/2d6-3rd-party-licence ? drgames.co.uk/dr-games-online-shop/ should have everything (first party) currently available. If any 3rd party stuff is being made, it's "online, somewhere".

This is a part of the "D&D Campaign Case: Terrain" set, which I picked up for twenty dollars.

As of the time of this reply (2 days late, sorry, busy weekend) it appears so. It's on Kickstarter as 2D6 Realm, and there is a ble Late Pledge button that takes you to a Microsoft form to fill out (I believe you will be emailed directly after that). www.kickstarter.com/projects/drmgames/2d6-realm-a-classic-overland-crawler-solo-player-game

I just updated the video description with 3 links to where the game is sold, maybe one of them will work for you. The PDF is USD8 (core rule book + tables codex).

@@CeePhour Thanks! But the problem is the payment, beacuse Russian cards are not accepted outside of Russia, so to buy anything foreign you have to use some sketchy middleman services

No.
