Seriously, you hardly need the rulebook with Rodney's videos.

@WatchItPlayed 3 года назад

Very kind of you to say - nice to know they are helpful!

i second this. when i have rulebook fatigue. i turn over to this channel and only consult the rule book for my calculations ie how much is a deck etc.

@samueleuresti3 3 года назад

Just watched the play though. Then came here to learn how to play. Wow, this video was posted 3 years ago. This is definitely a smart way to show old videos some new love. 😉👍

When I first looked at the game, I didn't think I'd like it (especially since I'm already interested in getting Formula D) but after watching the video, I saw it's actually a really interesting game.

Restoration Games has done a great job with this one, can't wait to get my hands on a copy of this. Thanks for the how to play.

You bet! I'm very pleased to see a company taking older classics, and re-working them from the ground up to give them new life in this current gaming climate.

I honestly scoffed at the concept of a car racing board game, but this walk through convinced me that I really want to try it! I really like the ability to influence everyone's cars, and also bet on the overall outcome. So much strategic potential.

Suggestion: Add a quick “How to open the board without breaking it” section to this video. The board cut pattern is a challenge. I always greatly appreciate these “How to play” videos. Thanks!

wonderful explanation. a little quirk about this game = are the speed cards DOUBLE SIDED? rodney flipped over a few in ther tutorial in such a way. that made me think that.

@WatchItPlayed 2 месяца назад

Nope!

@corruptation 7 лет назад

Under the auction section in the rule book on BGG, it states that all players must have at least one car. No where does it state that you can go without winning a car. I also didn't find anywhere in the rule book where it states that if you have no color of the car up for auction as well as wilds you can use the lowest number on any cards. These are the biggest differences I noticed when watching your video and just wanted to know where it states this. Or did you get direct clarification from the publisher? I know the rules are vague in those aspects. Thanks for all your hard work and rule clarification videos!

@WatchItPlayed 7 лет назад

Check Page 7 under "Rare Auction Rules". It'll clear up the latter part of your question, and it also hints to the answer for the first part of your question (because it addresses how players could have no car after the auction). Under the Page 3 auction rules it says "all" players "must" have a card, but this is a bit unfortunate, as no player is ever forced to take a car they don't want - so you can always choose to bid a card that doesn't "count" and thereby pass on claiming a car. If you pass enough, or get outbid enough, you can end up without a car (although this is rare). And to wrap up, this was something I discussed with the publisher also, as I had similar questions to yours :) They reviewed the video and gave it the okay, so you can trust the presentation here. Thanks for the question!

@corruptation 7 лет назад

Thanks for the clarification! Yeah, just got messed up with the "must" have a card text.

@JonnyLuscious 3 года назад

What is the starting hand-size for the auction in a 2 player game? You mention for 3, 4, and 5 and the 2 player rules in the book don't declare a hand-size until after the auction. Do the 2 players have half the deck each to bid with?

@WatchItPlayed 3 года назад

If they don't tell you a new hand size for the auction in a 2 players, than that would imply to me that is doesn't change.

@loooooooooby 2 года назад

So...Speed-8 cards, do they count as normal speed cards? What function do they serve? Between the rulebook and your explanation, if they're not treated like normal speed cards, then they don't seem to be that much different than the Car Plaque.

@WatchItPlayed 2 года назад

They are normal speed cards.

@skylerbell4049 2 года назад

When racing are you supposed to be looking at your cards?

@WatchItPlayed 2 года назад

Hi Skyler, was there something in the video that gave you the impression you were not allowed to look at your cards when racing?

@chuckm1961 5 лет назад

So can players end up with different numbers of cars after the auction? 4 players for example, will probably end up with two players each having 2 cars in the race, and two players each having 1 car. Even after paying the auction price, seems to me that the players with 2 cars in the race have a build in advantage. What am I missing? .... .. EDIT: I am going to answer my own question, before my first play of the game. I think the balance will come in the "emergent" game play. People need to actively thwart the lead car, I suspect. And make sure someone who already has one car pays enough in the auction for their second car.

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

You've got it :)

@MrStonetigers 6 лет назад

Great video. I've not looked at all the cards yet but in the auction is it possible for a tie with of the same number bid and number of cars and no wilds? If so how is this resolved? Thanks

@WatchItPlayed 6 лет назад

Thanks for checking out the video. I don't have the game with me at the moment to check the cards, but if I remember correctly, this isn't possible. I'll take a look when I get back from Essen.

@WatchItPlayed 6 лет назад

I checked and there are no cards with the same color value and number of cars. None without wild symbols at least. So it shouldn't happen in a game.

@MrStonetigers 6 лет назад

Watch It Played great thanks for looking into it.

@DeltaAirbusFlyer 7 лет назад

I dont mean to poo poo on this game but I feel that a different opinion is needed just so everyone can make an informed decision. Me and my friends played this at the Dice Tower Con and in the one game we played the guy who won got NOTHING but Wild cards! So he won in a landslide in all 4 categories. After commenting on the fact that the game may be broken if a player gets a majority of wild cards during the setup a girl who was watching our game said "The exact same thing happened in our game!" This makes me think that you need to draft cards at the beginning to avoid a WILD CARD runaway winner. Hope this helps. Great Job Rodney!!!

@WatchItPlayed 7 лет назад

Thanks for the kind words - and no worries on the poo-pooing :) On a personal note, I always advise caution around claims of broken strategies after one or two plays. That said, the beauty of board games is that players are always free to introduce changes to suit their particular interests.

@chuckm1961 5 лет назад

Um, the video is not an opinion. It's a video about how to play the game.

@aquarius5719 Год назад

House rules to fix this. As you get a wildcard, use 1D6 roll. * There are 2 options. Declare which one you will pick. Let us imagine that card says 4. * Option 1. Roll 1D6. If you get 4 or less, advance that number. If you roll above 4, move 1. * Option 2. Roll 1D6. If it rolls 4 or more, you move 6 and deliver 2 cards with wildcards to the discard pile. If you roll 3 or less, you car goes off track, pit stop. The next card that uses this car will return it to the road, but will move 0 forward. If track is blocked and it cannot go back to track, the it will be in the next card that it returns to road with 0 move forward. And with the next card play that car moves normally.
