You've mixed up a ti3 rule and a ti4 rule. You get to use all your influence in the agenda faze and then refresh your planets in 4th edition

I was just gonna comment about that

@steffenruehl2201 4 года назад

According to the German rulebook, when making a retreat both players have a full attack round, not only the player not retreating. Nice video, very helpful. Thank you!

@RulebreakerBoardgames 4 года назад

Oooh I will have to check that out in more detail and add a note if that's the case! Thank you.

@@RulebreakerBoardgames This is the case in the English version as well, the video is incorrect - this caused confusion for us in our first game after watching this video.

thank u watched the 30 minute how to play guide on youtube by rftm and still had no clue how to play. Ur guide explained it 10x better than the vid with 200k views

Thank you so much, this comment has made my day.

@deltafrombnet9393 2 года назад

Of all the guides I watched in my attempt to learn the game, this one is easily the best.

@LNCNMN13 5 лет назад

Exceptionally straight forward and comprehensive tutorial for the beginning player. Great information that provides quick examples of the games stages. Combat portion was explained in simple to follow steps that was crucial in dominating MY galaxy. Great job!

Glad you found it useful :)

I really like his videos. I love the pace, and the methodical style. Really worth watching.

@notpresidentduterte3979 5 лет назад

I love your tutorials on Twilight Imperium! The tutorials on the races are excellent! I now know how to use them! There were many missed opportunities when I played the races. With your tutorials on the race specific abilities, I now know how to use them! Many thanks!

@RulebreakerBoardgames 5 лет назад

You're very welcome. There is still a lot of stuff to learn in the game beyond what I've shown in these videos. They're a good start. Maybe I should follow my own advice in them, then I might win more often!

@michaelmayhill5464 2 года назад

Fantastic job. I’m new to TI, and have found ALL your TI videos invaluable in learning to play. I’ll be hosting my first full 6 player game next month, and I’m linking this How to Play video to all the players, plus the video for each of their chosen factions. Thanks SO much for the extremely high quality work; it’s helping us new players a ton.

@RulebreakerBoardgames 2 года назад

Hey, that means a whole lot to me. Thank you. have a fantastic game and make sure you budget the whole day to play it!

@Maravillante Год назад

Every time I'm gonna play the game I come back to this video to refresh the rules

@aricoboyo Год назад

This is excellent. Great job with the teach - the best I’ve seen.

@Charlie-px2qs 4 года назад

You declare retreat at combat step 1. There is then a full round of combat that functions as normal. A player can only retreat to a system with their units or a system in which they control a planet.

@Charlie-px2qs 4 года назад

@AsiaNPC iirc you can't declare a retreat with nowhere valid to retreat to.

@Charlie-px2qs 4 года назад

@AsiaNPC I recommend ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_u2xEap5hBM.html - just bear in mind that every tutorial has an error or two!

TI4 is a relatively light game. It can easily be memorized compared to many wargames and it can be played in 1 sitting.

@jakobvarsson840 3 года назад

Super helpful, thanks for doing this

@adamdenzinger576 3 года назад

Very well done explanation except for two rules; planets are refreshed at the end of the agenda phase, and objectives are scored in the initiative order of strategy cards

@RulebreakerBoardgames 3 года назад

Thanks

@qualityposts2011 5 лет назад

@RulebreakerBoardgames 5 лет назад

Thanks! We're glad you've been able to get this epic monster of a game to the table!

@korbendallas1014 2 года назад

Well explained, you should do strategy videos for each race.

@Usumgallu 2 года назад

50:00 the best tip in this video. Always acknowledge when your turn is going to be and think what you're going to do beforehand. Also if you don't understand some rule or a card, ask it while it's not your turn or read the manual. With unorganized "oh is it my turn now? hmmm... what should I do..." kind of players the six player game will easily take 12+ hours or even two days. I've had games where just the first round has taken over two hours in a six player game. And usually it just goes worse when people have more cards, diplomacy, fights etc. and they get tired. Don't ruin the game by making it sluggish.

@libered1 3 года назад

Thanks so much for the help its clear you put a lot of effort into your videos ! The only Criticism I would give is maybe try to talk louder and work on your Camera presents. But this is just my opinion. Again thank you so much this is so much help!

@RulebreakerBoardgames 3 года назад

Thanks Sheena, that's great to hear. I have definitely put a lot of effort into improving lighting and audio in the most recent videos. I hope you will see an improvement there. Thanks for the constructive feedback which is always welcome. Hope you enjoy your games of TI in the future.

@jean-sebastienallie1439 5 лет назад

Very nice video, the best I've seen about this game so far. Any chances we're gonna get the one you were preparing for races in the game? ;)

@RulebreakerBoardgames 5 лет назад

Yes, that video series is starting quite soon, with scripts already written for some races :) Once our Wingspan video is done, we are moving on to those.

@Trueflights 2 года назад

I know this is an older video, so I'm sure someone has pointed it out by now, but at 47:00 you mention that planets used for voting are exhausted for the following turn. This is incorrect. In the Rules Reference, step 8.4 of the Agenda Phase: "Each player readies each of their exhausted planets. Then, a new game round begins starting with the Strategy Phase" Other than that, this is an excellent reference for new players learning the game.

@jameskearney5472 4 года назад

I watched this and went to play but you had a few of the rules mixed, presumably with 3rd edition . The one that I noticed was you had how retreating works wrong but my friend thought you also got something about Mecatol Rex wrong although I couldn't find anything flicking through the video again.

@KatoGrinsihara 4 года назад

Two mistakes. You can not retreat into any neighboring system 67.7 The system that a player’s units retreat to must contain one or more of his units, a planet he controls, or both. Additionally, the system cannot contain ships controlled by another player The scoring is not done clockwise by the speaker 70.1 STEP 1-SCORE OBJECTIVES: Following initiative order, each player may score up to one public objective and one secret objective that can be fulfilled during the status phase. To score an objective, he must fulfill the requirements on the card; if he does, he gains a number of victory points indicated on the card.

@benhillsgrove9638 3 года назад

I have a question involving the upgraded PDS and the tactical action. A had been playing the game with a group about a year ago and they were able to use the PDS to shoot the ships adjacent to their systems ad nauseum by repeating the tactical action until they removed all ships. Is this a part of the standard game or is it a house rule?

@RulebreakerBoardgames 3 года назад

That sounds like someone was playing it incorrectly. To use a PDS you need to activate the system with a token, and once you activate a system once you can't do it again until the next round. If someone kept on doing it, they essentially just guaranteed that they would eventually destroy the ships, which is wrong. If I understand you correctly, it sounded as though the people playing would just keep firing PDS forever?

@benhillsgrove9638 3 года назад

@@RulebreakerBoardgames yep

@gstone5616 3 года назад

So the PDS can’t attack ships in that system? They can only attack ‘landing’ infantry ?

@RulebreakerBoardgames 3 года назад

PDS can fire at the ships before Invasion starts. If for example the PDS player has no ships in the system, they can fire at the ships that have entered the system, but only once. Once Invasion starts, the PDS can then fire at the landing Infantry

@gstone5616 3 года назад

@@RulebreakerBoardgames and if the PDS player does have ships in the system the PDS still gets to fire ? Or just if they have no ships ?
