Nice playthrough! I have played 2 games so far and Newt was revealed in the same square as this playthrough each time! I am pretty sure that's her favourite hiding place!
Hahahahha!!!! It she did have a favorite place to run to in the movie. It’s amazing the game played out that way. Thanks for the awesome comment and thanks for watching 😃😃👍
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I am having a blast. And your right this game has got me excited. I hope you get your game soon. Thanks Ken V for watching 😃😃👍
40:02 - Newt can go like this: i.imgur.com/spFRCAA.jpg 1:03:44 - They cannot be seen, because the door is closed. Hudson is actually not next to the door. I've watched all the Aliens movies again when I purchased my "Aliens: Bug Hunt" board game few months ago. I also PRE-Ordered "Aliens: Another Glorious Day in the Corps" and my copy came few days ago, but I didn't played it yet. I will any day now. But first I will watch your video of Mission 2. I love your enthusiasm and excitement playing it. Aliens is one of my favorite movies too.
Your right newt could have gone around Riply and ended up in the same spot. Also you are totally correct missed that door being closed. Didn’t effect much but you are absolutely Right. Glad you are enjoyed the playthrough and thanks for watching 😃😃👍
This is really great, Thanks! My kids and I have been trying to decipher the rulebook but it leaves alot of questions, and this clears up most of them!
Your welcome. It was important to me that people see the game without the errors to make the 2nd mission aweosme!! And I am super excited for the second mission it has been a blast!!! 😃😃👍
Painted up everything and played the first scenario. Amazing thematic experience. The intro game is to get you up to speed with the mechanics as it isn't too difficult. Can you believe Gorman actually drew the "You always were an a**hole Gorman." Event card. I played Gorman and Hicks as heroes and tried to barricade just about everything I could. Onto the next scenario. The expansions are on their way. Thanks again for this instructional play through, it helped hugely in getting things moving.
Brilliant video and I am glad to see you corrected the mistakes in your first playtrough. I just finished playing the Newt mission and made quite some mistakes too 😊 One question: do doors open when you pass them or only when you end your move in front of them? I think they only open when you end your move in front off them but I might be wrong.
Thank you. The doors open anytime you are adjacent to them. You don’t have to stop your movement as you move to them. They are on issue with LOS. That’s the biggest thing. Thanks for the great question and thanks for watching 😃😃👍
2 questions: 1) Do aliens that spawn right next to a marine after a motion tracker event immediately attack that marine, or do they have to wait until the next alien phase? 2) What happens to a knocked-down character when another alien is next to it and takes its turn? Is that character killed or kidnapped? Is a character only killed when you roll a 10 on a defense roll? In all other cases they are kidnapped?
Those are great questions. The first one aliens only attack during the first two phases of the aliens phase. The third phase when motion tracker cards are drawn they don’t attack even if they move or spawn adjacent to a marine. The second question from what I understand they will will still attack a downed marine, but not until the start of the next alien phase will the marine be taken away. I hope that helps thanks for the great question and thanks for watching 😃😃👍
Hello, I have a small question. The rules state what a character can have. Experts in their hand. ze. You can remember. does it apply to all characters?. hicks has the ability to hold cards in hand, the others can have, no one has the ability to hold cards in hand, you need a drake or an apone
On turn 3, after Vasquez misses with her second attack action, you did not move the aim dial down to 5. Shouldn’t this have been done? So then if she gets attacked she has aim dial of 5...not 6 as stated.
@One Stop Co-op Shop I’ve seen many play thru’s on this mission and most of them miss a ton of stuff. The rule book is horrible. But your videos seem to have way less mistakes and explains things better than many out there. Good job👍🏼
Thank you I hope to return to this game soon. I’m trying to get the expansions so I can explore the entire mission. I think it would be a ton of fun. Thanks for all the great feedback and thanks for watching 😃😃👍
@@OneStopCoopShop I got all three games in a couple weeks ago. Just got done painting core minis plus the queen and Ripley loader. Also got assets and hazards a while back. You may have a rough time trying to find the expansions because I think most stores sold out pretty quickly on the second reprint that just came in from GF9. And I have heard they have no plans for another reprint in the near future. It’s a shame because it seems like a very popular game and sells out quicker than they can make it. Going to start the first mission finally tonight.
That is a great question. All the grunts activate each turn. after a hero activates they activate a grunt equal to their rank. So hick goes activates 2 grunts then Vasquez activates and then activates a grunt. After both heroes have activated then the last 2 grunts go and the highest ranking person has the final say as to what they do. So Hicks isn’t really activating them but gets the last word on what they do. Hope that makes sense I’ll explain that better in the next video. Thanks for the great question and thanks for watching 😃😃👍
Great question. I only have them on if there is an error that I need to have in the video I’ll be adding some later today for the three errors I noticed after launch.
