We’ve played all three co-ops and this was our least favorite. The Paladins co-op is the best in our opinion- I’d like to see how you guys like that one! Still stressful but not as punishing when it comes to completely overhauling gameplay.
Please do the other two in co-op for the channel, this playthrough was great fun, specially when you did win when Naveen was so sure that you weren't going to. It made the win taste so much sweeter.
The mechanism of the Overlord really wants you to diversify your actions, meaning that if you both do the same thing it will punish you more. Looks pretty interesting. You both enticed me to play the competitive Tomesaga over the 3 games (it was really fun), now you are making me want to play the coop version too😱
Yes! I love Architects and received Age of Artisans this week in the mail. Won't be playing with the Tomesaga (yet!), but nice to see the expansion in play.
Great video! Your channel has quickly become one of my favorites on RU-vid. I know a lot of people are now requesting for you to review/play the Runesaga, but personally I think you should showcase a different Garphill game; the often overlooked Circadians: First Light. It has some mechanics in common with Architects, but it uses dice as workers instead of meeples and plays very well at 2 players. It’s definitely one of my favorites from this publisher and IMO deserves more attention than it’s been getting.
I am so enjoying your videos. They are so well produced and entertaining. Have you considered using a green screen like Rahdo does to show card closeups?
I remember if you're playing with variable setup (2nd side of the starting characters), the one with the highest virtue will go first. Moreover, no one will have extra starting coins (3, 4, 5 etc.)
34:46 since you already have a worker in the workshop when you placed another, you can buy the second card, meaning you only have to place a silver on that card to buy the next one. You can already skip the first card because you have 2 workers.
This looks so awesome! Can't wait to get a hold of Architects, Artisans and Tomesaga! Would love to see how Viscounts and Paladins work in co-op mode :D
This was really amazing, as I expected :) I did try this, but I did the wrong thing as it was my first play ever, so as one can expect, I got wrecked. I did make it harder on me (as did you) after I didn’t realise that the Overlord doesn’t count as a player for the purposes of Guild Hall and some of his scheme cards. So now you can brag that you built the co-op scenario on hard mode :) I’d real,y love if you could try the two other games in co-op mode, whenever you can, of course. Once again, this was truly great :)
Well, after watching your playthroughs I bought the whole West Kingdom trilogy, and now I'll have to pick up the tomesaga. I'm not sure I'm sold on age of artisans just yet... I'll have to look into it.
Hi I am new to this channel, thank you for the great educational material, thanks to you many games have revealed their secrets. Great job, great materials, great presenters. Greetings and thank you.
Slightly unrelated to this game play... (which was fascinating and I need this expansion now) Are there any details on Naveen's shirt? haha. I love it.
I think it might be from Threadless? Unless it was a gift lol. I think it's some sort of adventurer. We'll try to look it up later tonight and get back to u!
@@BeforeYouPlay i know you ended up winning which i think surprised both of you. I was a bit surprised, but since you got all the demand cards fullfilled, i thought there was a chance. I like the coop idea, especially the "share" action...(it wasnt called share was it?), but i could not figure out any way to combat the Overlord. he just took a broom and swept the board clean. Are there other "overlords" which have different play styles / mechanisms?
