Great play-through video. I like that it's a little rough and you're going over things that new players would be going through. It's the 3rd video i've watched on this game and the one that made me feel i now understood all the mechanics best. Excited to play now!
Thanks for such a nice comment! And I’m glad! I really didn’t have the intention of having that moment in the video.... it was the one voted on to be played, and preparing for the video I just wasn’t enjoying my plays.... until the video... 😂 so it’s easy quite the journey!
Interesting game. Nice to see blue win for a change, even if you did make a couple of minor errors in red's favour: 42:33 You forgot to pay to put the two red on the card. 53:46 You forgot to take the green/black income from the Witch. Blue also could have got enough gold to buy two monuments on the final round (plus some left over to spend on the black/red place of power if you went for that one instead) by reusing the Dragon's Lair to get 2 extra gold each time - that would have left him no worse off on points, and ahead on essence, compared to using the resets to turn 1 blue into 5 green each time. Wouldn't have made all that much difference - it was already a clear victory - but my brain likes to micro-optimise... "Elan" means "flair", "panache", "energetic confidence"
This was great and really enjoyable, didn't think I would last the whole video but it went by very quick. I like that you were kind of learning the game as you go which make it easier to understand. There's a lot of components to this game and the shorter instruction videos are really difficult to follow. Thanks for making this!
I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed it! It was fun to see things literally click while on camera... Thanks for watching and taking the time to say such a nice comment Karl. I hope you have an awesome weekend!
