Great Western Trail: Rails to the North - Shut Up & Sit Down Playthrough! 

Expansion box should have had three dead faced cows on it to match with the three dead faced guys on the base game box.

We've gotta see a Concordia playthrough at some point

At 1:04:18 when Matt asks about upgrading buildings: the rule is that the 'old' building (i.e. the one being replaced) is removed from the game entirely. Thanks for sharing!

Matt wasn't lying about those drop shadows, the overlays really popped when she started using it

I've decided I'm calling this game Moo's and Choo-choo's now.

"A cow based deck building game." ... Goddammit ProZD...

When Quinns had to move the train back - for "light cheating" - an overlay saying "Ooch! Ooch!" would have been hilarious

This was 2 1/2 hours of watching them looking at the board intensely.

Watching people thinking in silence, interspersed with little bouts of insight, is actually quite relaxing.

One note pg.6 rulebook: On your very first turn of the game, place your cattleman onto any neutral building tile and continue directly with phase B (so you are not starting from the beginning of the trail and move your cattleman along the trail to another location).

It's actually very fun watching you guys think... seriously.

The overlaid illustrations are the best. Also, that ending.

Shut up and strip down should be a bonus episode for the patreon donors.

"The Norwegians, touched for the very first time. The Norweeeeeeegians..." made me laugh way more than it had any right to. I also find it interesting that I'm sitting here in America drinking English beer, Samuel Smith's Tadcaster Porter, while they are sitting there in the UK drinking American beer.

Best moment was Quins realizing he had all sorts of special effects noises for his train moving... and then having to put the train back. thinking time was entirely reasonable... we got to see a cow extravaganza... missed a cowlick pun that was begging to happen esp cause of Mat's hair cow :) . (it really wouldn't be milking it at all)

I love seeing that people whose job it is is to play games mess up the occasional rules as well. My group calls it Shenanigans.

You don’t get to build buildings again. Once they’re upgraded they’re remoooved from the game.

This game is fantastic, I played over 50 times with my friends, never gets boring, never gets old!

Given the acoustics of the room they recorded the stream from (echo, not-quite-synchronized mics), I am very impressed with the number of videos they've produced in the same location which had high quality sound. I wonder if they had one too many active mics going or something? Regardless, great stuff as always! Keep 'em coming!

You knobs have influenced me into buying so many great games. Thanks for the input

Just finished 9h twitch marathon with You guys and TI- woooow congrats on production part and thank You for amazing time!!!

These men are heroes.

I still can't get over the fact, that Quinns has this Netrunner tatoo for real! That is passion!

I still think this should of been called _Chisholm Trail_ because that's what it is.

I thought this was a review when I clicked and was intrigued that SUSD were recording a review live with Chris as a cameraman.. It took me far too long to realise what I was watching

Yay!!! Both Chris and Anni of People Make Games fame are on these streams now!

Oops-when you start the game, YOU CHOOSE where to start!!

Finally, we get some backstory on Annie to answer our pressing audience questions, like "Who is Annie?" and "What is she for?" She's for dope Twitchstream animations!

In the spirit of shut up and strip, I would like to ask Matt and Quinns, when playing cowboys, which one of you has the loaded gun and which one digs?

the overlays are the bestest

Chris Bratt! I wondered where you ended up after Eurogamer. Good to see you :)

Love this, minor suggestion, getting some theme-appropriate royalty-free low music could help enhance the experience and also fill the blanks when you guys are thinking (:

Love the format guys, well done! Also i have a crazy idea.. Any chance of a bit of over game audio commentary, just like like in directors cut dvd's. I would watch this all again - with added insights into your personal strategies / post game chat or random stories and thoughts.

7:42 ey! a Jean Michel Jarre shoutout. nice.

So, I think I'm going to side with you fellas in that watching a Euro game isn't all that exciting -- allowing that for some who are perhaps _super_ into just watching this sort of game. It's sort of like watching a _real_ dungeons and dragons game, where it's not all that interesting but playing it is super awesome (alternatively, watching a performative D&D is pretty nice, but not all that realistic of an actual game). Of course, the commentary is amusing! Looking forward to Twilight Imperium, a game I've not played but been quite interested in. Also, I'd really like to see you guys do another play of Resistance/Avalon, with some more info available for viewers.

Also without youtube ads, would viewing the playback on twitch be more beneficial for you folks? I already support monthly but if just going over to watch on twitch is more helpful seems an easy thing to pop open another tab.

hey Id love to see a game of Tigris and Euphrates

Marc Cohn's version is clearly the better Walking in Memphis, because here on the internet opinions are facts.

3:40 Chris you had one job!

2:05:34 - The ASMR portion of the stream. P.S. Matt is at least 9 months younger than me. I probably wouldn't have guessed that.

This game doesn't make for very interesting viewing but I still enjoyed watching.

You know what ol Jack Burton says at times like these?

February 23? But it’s March 2...

I want to be a Cowboy! I got to be a Cowboy! The Vandals!🤣😄😎🎸🎶🔊🤣

Quinton should get his two coins back from taking back moving his train forward.

A honeycow is a kind of pastry that's sweetened with honey traditinoally. At least it should be. I found that confusing. Sorry. Playing a Guensey and a Jersey at the same time should entitle you to some sort of Channel Bonus, no?

On first Mooooove, you can choose where to start guys

That's flockin funny!! Great beginning! Shut up and st st studder. Was studdering John coming through magically on the psychic RU-vid signal or did ya just need a cue for did ya just need a pat on the back 😃😄😄 Just kidding I love you guys and I love to joke around ☺️😊 👍 Great video Fantastic games.

i started watching this, but the possibility of that can of drink being spilled is too much for me.

1:17:15 I bet it's Otaly Barista milk Matt's talking about. That stuff's like crack.

Sue Perkins *is* brilliant.

Oh, I was expecting _Rails t't North_

those guys behind you seem to be having more fun. are they playing a newer edition? *honk* Also, depending on how cool you are with actual "native americans," it's okay to say indian because it's interpreted ironically and has been appropriated by many natives. I say "native american" mainly so that sensitive people don't feel bad. the point is it's people being offended on behalf of people they think are being offended, when no offense has been committed. cheers

The Incredible Hulk had a line kind of like that.

1:54:23 Quinns is wrong. buildings that let you move let you move up to x spaces. So 1-3 spaces in this example.

Chicago is in the state of Indianapolis? As a Hoosier, I love this comment. Talk about targeting a very specific audience...

How about Put 'em up and Sit down?

When I become a grown up, I want to be an intern so I can get to write scores down on fun repellant paper for professional board gamers

I love you guys, I love this game...but man is it killing me how little prepared you are with the rules and strategy with the expansion.

"...what the manual delightfully calls brown shirts" wait what

at 47:35 why would you ever get 2 blues for 12 when you could get a Texas Longhorn for the same price for one more VP and for the fact that you wouldn't have a duplicate in your deck.

Most American Indians don't care tbf. I do try and put American in front to avoid confusion with the other Indians though.

Lovely beer you got there!

That american accent was great

the go! team rules!!!!!!!!

Would you recommend this game for 2 people?

Shocking European game boy tells audience to Shut Up and Strip Down

it's different for me because im a professional

How would they have played differently to get better scores? New to this game....

woahwoahwoah they actually PLAYING a game instead of reviewing? MORE! PLEASE MORE! ALL THE GAMES! Reviews are all well and good, but i wanna watch cool people play!

I'd rather watch this playthrough than a cowboy moooovie

Cows

“Terminal Paleness”

Wait one more where was he telling you you're stuck already was he stuck in the bathroom, did he fall in er something 😄😄Ok I'll stop joking. I'm serious now. I'm trying to focus on the instructions of the game ☺️☺️

I feel early

Matt could be a great skeksies with that "mmmmMmMMMMMMmmmm"

Hm, this one fell a bit flat for me. Endless cow trading is not very exciting.

First comment

I can't believe he said Indian....

Unwatchable, first move botched. :P
