IMHO the playing time is one of cardinal problem of the BSG.... to play 2-3-5 hours with 4-6 people is really hard to achieve. And I see the parallels, but yeah, the BSG version makes more sense.

BSG.. with altered combat and cylon mechanics. I was highly skeptical of this, as space is a lot more interesting to me than the ocean and sea monsters (yea, I know.. 'Cthulu'.. but that honestly seems barely even there).. ..but this video kind of sold me on it. The fleet board-esque style of enemy deployment was good, enemies being predictable was good.. and the enemies drifting back in the water to simulate movement of the ship was a fantastic touch I didn't expect due to BSG familiarity. I don't own BSG because the going rate is absolutely horrible, especially for the expansions, and so have had to rely on digital means of playing it. But this intrigued me greatly after seeing the run down. Absolutely fantastic. Thank you.

Yeah, my wording might be a bit unclear there, what I'm trying to say is that any human (regular, or traitor-who-hasn't-been-revealed-as-a-traitor-yet) can be sent to the brig.

You had me until you said 3 to 6 player. This definitely looks like an amazing game. Although, I think my wife would get a bit tired of the administration of the game. She likes games that are fewer things to do on every turn, and so many things to do each turn with locations around the board. So I don’t know if this one would fly with her. The concept is amazing, and seeing as I am a pirate, anything about sea going vessels, wins in my book. Great video, of course, this was definitely a complex game to explain, and you make it look effortless. You are the best.

I have actually gone into the old FLGS I used to go to (they are not so F any more) and they would say something about a game, and I would be able to correct them because I knew more about the games then they did. Like, for instance, a game was 3 to 6 player, and NOT 2 to 6, when I would say I am looking for mostly 2 player games, and they would pull two or three off the shelf saying this is a great game, and I would say, Yes, if you have three players, like my friend Rodney said, AND IT SAYS ON THE BOX.

Just a quick question: is it possible for the titles to get lost? For example, in a 3 player game the characters that were picked are ones that are listed as number 8,9, and 10 on the captain’s “hereditary list”. So 8 would start as the captain, but let’s say they lose it, now number 9 gets is. Ok, but they turn out to be a traitor, so number 10 will be the captain now. What if at this point number 10 is sent to the brig by any means? Do the captain title shift back to number 8?

When a character loses a title, it is given to the eligible character who is highest in the line of succession for that title. * Revealed traitors, humans in the Brig and characters not in play are not eligible. * The human losing a title is only eligible if all other humans are in the Brig and that player is not revealing as a traitor. * If a player loses a title and all humans are in the Brig, the title is given to the human in the Brig who is highest in the line of succession for that title.

He has a faked video of “out takes” on the channel. But we all know the truth. It is not real. The real out take real is hidden in the unfinished portion of his basement with all of the disused games he has, under the old original copy of Risk that he has not played since college.

Carefully. You could pass it under the table, or slide it to them face down.

I like how they took the "everyone plays a card that might be helpful or harmful" thing from Dead of Winter. I always thought that mechanic should be used in more hidden traitor games.

@WatchItPlayed 2 года назад

Hey Michael, this game is based on the Battlestar Galactica game that came out a few years before Dead of Winter.

Do you get to choose traitor win condition, if you are dealt both Hybrid and Cultist card?

@MrGlobalSuccess 2 года назад

Not Rodney but my guess would be: if you have both you pick which one you want to achieve? If you reveal yourself as a traitor you give away all your loyalty cards to one other player so it you had both hybrid and cultist you can pick which one you give away beforehand.

@WatchItPlayed 2 года назад

If a player has both a Cultist and a Hybrid loyalty card at the end of the game, that player wins the game if one of the Deep One objectives is met, regardless of how far the ship has traveled.

37:20 revealing as traitor, if you HAVE any mythos card, you lose it... how can you have a mythos card? i didn't understand that part, can a mythos card be equiped? sorry if its a stupid question

@WatchItPlayed 2 года назад

I don't have a specific example for you (I can't think of a situation where that would happen either), but it is in the rules, so I say it here for completeness. It may be that in practice this would never happen (or there may be a mythos card in the deck that has a special rule that states it stays with the player after being resolved).

@stefanmaksic4300 2 года назад

Are the rules balanced for 3 players or do we have to change anything in your opinion?

@WatchItPlayed 2 года назад

Hi Mikael, I avoid trying to assess game balance. What one person finds balanced, another might disagree with, so I prefer to just show how the game plays, and let others apply their own opinions and biases to that.

@blakecurry3880 2 года назад

You might have said it and I just missed, but what do you do if you're in the brig and just don't have 12 skill worth of cards? Do you just sit there for the rest of the game?

@WatchItPlayed 2 года назад

Hey there, I'm always happy to try to help with rules questions, but if the answer is provided in the video, than I have to direct you there. You'll find an index in the description to help you find the section you might be looking for. And then based on that, if you have a specific question related to what I said, let me know what it is, and I'll try to assist.

@ThomasMink 2 года назад

I cannot speak for this game, so I'm just assuming here.. but in BSG, which this game is heavily influenced by, characters in the brig still draw their hand of skill cards. And unlike BSG, revealed traitors still draw 5 cards, so it shouldn't be long before you can move again.

@briancoll8321 2 года назад

There is only one element I’m confused by: So at the beginning of the game, when everyone is drawing up to their card limit, the current player doesn’t draw any cards? So they can’t contribute to any skill tests on mythos tests until it gets back to them for their actual turn?

@WatchItPlayed 2 года назад

It's been a little while since I shot this and I'm not near my rule book right now, but I believe the video says the starting player gets no cards during the "setup" stages (while the other players do), but once the game begins, the very first step of their turn is the receive skills step. So they will start with some, just less than everyone else. Let me know if that helps.

@Castorshells 2 года назад

Could you play the game with no traitor? Based off those rules it seems like it would work just fine.

@nickhuston7934 2 года назад

You could, but the problem is the game loses part of its essence when you play full co-op. Sure the game is naturally designed to be in the traitor’s favor, but removing them entirely doesn’t work. No reason to keep cards in hand a secret, no reason to send people to the Brig or to let them sit in Med Bay. Paranoia is a major component, and removing that would be, in my opinion, a disservice to the game and the players.

@simonbrake5072 2 года назад

It sounds like it could be fun if implemented as in Dead of Winter, where there's the potential for someone to be a traitor, but it's not clear that there definitely is one.

You could try it, but the game is intended to have traitors.

For skill cards, can you only play skill cards on another player's turn if the card does NOT require an action?
