Arcs (with Leaders & Lore) - 4p Teaching & Play-through by Heavy Cardboard 

That was really kind of you to say. Thank you and glad you liked it!👍🏼

I agree. I have both, and found that the wooden pieces are easier to move and are better for indicating damage. I may find a solution to make the plastic ships work better, but for now I’m sticking with the wooden ones

I thought the same thing. I'm gonna give everyone the chance to use the plastic because we have them but the wood has a better shape imo. Leder should stick with wood, they have nice pieces.

And then you have me who love both the wooden and plastics. ❤️😍

My go to for learning games. Love his style

I appreciate that. Thank you!

It clicked for me too once I learned how to set myself up for victory. 😊

LOL - always watch until the end kids! :D Kyle did the same clarification I just did 😄 Anyways, I will leave the comment up, so everyone can see what happens if you judge too soon and take me as a bad example 🤣

​@@spectrumunitI really appreciate your second comment! I can relax knowing they correct themselves eventually 😁

What do you mean?

The game takes awhile to explain, 20 min seems to be the usual time it takes to cover the core rules. The game is really complex. Dont get me wrong, your explanation was perfect! Learning to teach the game myself to my group

@@lumitic77420 minutes is super short compared to what‘s usually played here on this channel

@@ilqrd.6608 I was looking for Heagemony games, found it in your channel. indeed... 20 minutes seems super short.

Votes for Women.

I actually mentioned it multiple times during the stream. 👍🏼

@@Heavycardboard Ah, I did skip the teach part of the video as I already knew how to play the game. I did at one point hear a reference to Votes For Women, but I couldn't tell what was being referenced.

@@stephenlake7398 thanks!

Haven’t sleeved but the rulebook states that yes sleeved cards fit and spells out how to organize if sleeved.

It all fits in the campaign box. There are four wells that are used for cards and individual tokens for the campaign episodes. Bag the campaign episode tokens, label them, and place them in one well. Put everything in the other three. I needed some space in the fourth well for cards that didn't manage to fit in the others, but that's because my sleeves were a bit thicker than average.

Go watch the unboxing (and reboxing) I did for the Arcs campaign game.

They aren't. :)

Sadly no. My one gripe. Not sure how that made it through proofing. However this is a fantastic game and I am loving it.

Also - I think people didn't realize, but you can still raid someone if they have no buildings on the board by attacking their ships

We appreciate your opinions, but we all know the rules👍🏼

@@Heavycardboard Whoops your right! I misread that last play! Great game though, thanks for streaming

Name the planets and cities yourself

@@josephanderson3026 no sorry, not my jam

@@elqord.1118I’m with you. I ordered the game because it looks fun and after reading the rulebook I was very intrigued. Root is in my top-10, but Oath felt bloated to me (still kept it, I mean it’s beautiful). One of the first things I noticed though was the lack of planetary/system names. Yes, I suppose you can ‘name it yourself’, but I think having them on the board adds to the mystique of world building that I think was a bit of a missed opportunity. I mean, even Tiny Epic Galaxies has planet names. I’ve not yet ordered the campaign. Waiting to see how this plays first. People have extolled its virtue. But campaign games can be a bit hit or miss for me and the family. I played through the Fenris campaign (Scythe) with my buddies and it took us like a year to complete it. Oath has only seen a few plays and we backed it on kickstarter. We’ve owned Gloomhaven for years, yet are only about 7-8 completed (beaten) scenarios. I did back the new Flash Point campaign because we *love* it and the game seems to beg for that kind of story line; we’ll see. So I’m in the wait and see for the Arc’s campaign expansion, perhaps someone else can tell us if expansion adds to the ‘Reach’s’ lore.

Fascinating how different things matter to different people. For me, the game is jam-packed with storylines & theme and planet names wouldn't even feature in my top 100 things I'm looking for in a game.

@@the_luggage It gives you the bones and asks you to imagine the rest. Good if it works for you but it doesn't for me. If you don't make up stuff, the game itself is a cold and clinical affair

And I really like it! Opinions are fun.

@@maquisardnhmine is just like yours, lookie dat! The new map is absolutely gorgeous

Didn't like the 2nd iteration, but this one is fine. The great thing about it is there's no longer dead/empty space, everything in the map is important. My only complaint about it is the lack of color subdues Kyle's art but I understand it's for readability.

Same. Still super bummed. It fails to capture the imagination. Looks functional but that is the best I can say about it

@@ilqrd.6608 I liked the old map, but I kind of like how when all the ships are facing inward it looks like the Tangled opinions meme. like so much pent up aggression. It really sells some of the game's themes better than the old one.
