Join me as we continue with Day 1 & Day 2 of This War of Mine designed by Michał Oracz and Jakub Wiśniewski. This game was published originally on Kickstarter by Awaken Realms and the retail release handled by Galakta! Will Bruno, Boris and Emilia be able to survive? Time to find out! Enjoy and keep on rolling solo! ;D FYI: 45:40 I forgot to flip Hunger 1 to Hunger 2 for Boris not eating on Day 3. I will do this at the start of the next video.
Such a good solo game. Playing solo is perfect, as you can totally immerse yourself in the theme, without feeling pressured to move by another player. Good job on the video.
The die rolling "result" you get at 55:30 (no visible result) is at the right lower corner of the rubble die card and it's "nothing happens". As for the Narrative, I'll go with "Secret Storage". Love the video and I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapter of the story!
Hey Gabriel! Hmm based on a top down look at my die it was dead even between all sides showing. So I couldn’t guess on that one. ;p Looking forward to the next one as well and thanks for voting! :)
@@RollingSolo Yes, Gabriel is correct. Should of been Nothing Happens. But hey, you got lucky with the roll of C. I do think only a character present in the scavenging group benefit from that C result.
Excellent walkthrough as always. I just love how this game plays; even though I have more than dozen successful campaigns behind me, I still find it interesting and engaging not just to play it again (with the expansions it is even better), but to watch others choices and stories that develop in their games. I see you took a bit conservative approach, with not taking great risks :) I personally always engage in Reality Impacts; secret events or objects I often get through them were very often the game changer: either led me to survival through campaign (more than not) or would end up with a head shot XD (that sucked when happened). However, I think you missed a rule at the night raid of the second day, when used Vigilante Watch card. I think that you character on the guard still had a right to role a grey dice and add the result to the vigilante watch effects. Otherwise, thanks for the video! Loved it!
Hey Viktor, I agree with you that it’s a very interesting game to see played. I would also find it fun to watch others and see how they do. Thanks for checking out the video! :)
I don't think Bruno can lower his fatigue from the rubble die. Result C says choose a character "present", which to me means a character who is scavenging.
Hey Lynn, could be! I’ll take a look. ‘Present’ is a tough one to decipher but could related to Scavenging specifically or just present in play. I’ll do some digging :)
I just successfully finished one base game campaign! Now I'm in a limbo of deciding if I want the expansions or not. This game is so super dark to the point that it feels even darker than Kingdom Death. Definitely a GOOD game but I don't know if I want to play it again... 😥
It certainly is heavy but it’s a masterpiece in terms of actually learning how harsh that time of situation really is. A lot to be learned there. I appreciate the ‘realness’ of it that typically is washed over these days. Cheers!
Thought I remember reading somewhere that the locations move no matter if for example small isn’t one of the locations. I think everything shifts down with the bottom location being discarded ?
Hey Glen! Not sure from what I know. I haven't seen anything that states it cycles but I could have missed something. Let me know if you find anything. With the fate card specifically mentioning a small location, this like others on the card would be passed over if they don't apply. Cheers!
Nope you were also right and I didn’t mention you can burn four exploration cards before or after scavenging in order to cycle the locations. I’d have to look to see how that works. In the journal for scavenging it references a script number for the FAQ and there it mentions how this is handled. You can also download the app for free to get access to the Book of Scripts. Cheers :)
I know I'm a year late, just getting into this game, but at the 58m mark, shouldn't the Starving People card have been removed from the game the first time around as per the red writing at the bottom? Or am I incorrect?
@@RollingSolo yeah, it helped me out a lot! It could be used as water to drink or as a misery boost, like alcohol but without the fatigue cost. Pretty handy..
