Excellent job Paul...thanks for dedicating yourself to make the videos the best possible quality and not settling for 'near enough is good enough'. Makes these videos survive the test of time and become the 'go to' standard.
Excellent, clear video detailing a truly wonderful game. High quality all around from Gaming Rules! and Mindclash. Thanks Paul for making the rules and sequence of play so easy.
Another fantastic how to play video Paul. I will be most certainly following this video alongside reading the rulebook when learning the game. Very much looking forward to playing this over and over these next few months.
Fantastic video. I don't envy how much effort must have gone in to mastering this ruleset but I am very thankful I have this video before I play the game.
Hello, as I already learned the rules of the game, I will watch your video when I received my game in October. So, perfect for refreshing the rules of the game, just before I will play Voidfall. Thank you very much. Best regards Biene
I have been waiting for this for a long time. I am so glad they decided to reshoot the game with the new rules. Thanks Paul, I will be watching your playthrough. Great Job! You and Mindclash work well together.
Thanks Paul, actually just managed to bag someone's unwanted copy today so this incredibly patient, clear and thorough video couldn't have come at a better time. Thanks for all you do for the hobby (especially when the entire week doesn't quite go to plan)!
Thanks. Seems like not much has changed since the beta test - good for me since there's not much I have to learn now. I can't wait to have it in my hands finally. What a wonderful game. Thanks for your video - a truly great explanation of all the key aspects.
Really appreciate the effort and quality of this tutorial. In conjunction with reading the rulebook, it has been extremely useful in helping me absorb not just the rules but also the interaction between the various mechanisms of the game. Thanks to both you and Mindclash Games for making this possible!
Thanks Paul, this is a very though and well done video. I will be able to play this complex game much quicker. Looking forward to your Solo play through and can't wait to get my copy .
Really clear instruction. No nonsense, concise, well spoken, great organization. Thanks for doing this. Definitely messed up a couple rules on the first go just referencing the rulebook, and this provided a ton of clarity!
I have read the rules... watched this video 2 times, and watched the 5 hour long Heavy Cardboard teach and playthrough. I think I am finally about ready to play lol. This game is a handful... and I am ecstatic to try it out!
I struggle to learn games from rulebooks so this is going to be a god send to help me get up and running, even better it is done by Paul Grogan so I know it will be easy to understand and look great. Can't wait to dive into this game as soon as it arrives
Hi Paul. Was rewatching this as I prepared to teach the game and think I found a small detail regarding abandoning a sector that is not covered in the video. It's in the Rulebook on page 27 in the section on Glory Tokens. It states that if you abandon a sector you have to discard one of your Glory Tokens. Unfortunately I think this is the only place in the rulebook where this is mentioned so it's easy to miss since it is not in the Abandoned Sectors section on page 24. Just thought I'd highlight it in case you want to put something in the video description or in Klingon subtitles about it. Thanks again for the great job on this. It's been incredibly helpful!
Correct. This wasn't spotted by anyone (not even the designers or Mindclash) during final checks of this video. And, it is unfortunately not covered in the rulebook in the section on Abandoning Sectors. But you are right.
It's also on page 21 in the last section: if you recall the last Fleet Power from a non-Home sector, you must discard a Glory token of your choice (see page 27 on Glory tokens) and the sector is abandoned (see page 24 on abandoned sectors).
I literally cannot wait to explain all this to my gaming groups and play the game. Thanks for the excellent video Paul! The game itself looks fantastic. Every nuance of the rules and iconography somehow feels both necessary and intuitive at the same time and it certainly delivers the promise of a space empire building epic with deterministic combat.
I have been highly anticipating this rules explaination after learning that there have been some adjustments. Can't wait to watch through the solo mode! Thanks for a job well done!
Great tutorial! I will need to watch a playthrough as well to take it all in (and you made that too :) ), but this video makes me less afraid to try this complex game!
Thank you Paul for this video. A job very well done! I am looking forward to watching the upcoming 3-P play through as well as the solo-play through. :)
Paul, thanks a lot for this great video. Although I am still waiting for my copy, it is a pleasure just watching the video. You put so much afford into it and enriched the video with lots of graphical support. It is just amazing how you show us a very clear path to set up and play the game. Moreover, I love your clear and accurate explanation. To recall your statement from Best Games of the Month July 2023 video, yes, I totally agree, that's one of your best how-to-play tutorial videos. Thank you so much for all the passion you put into this video, which makes it so unique. I think we all going to love it 🙂All the best from Germany, Berlin Frank
I really want to play to this game but I'm not sure I will find others players to play with me. It looks so great !!! Thank you for your video, your explanations are always cristal clear!
@@GamingRulesVideosExcellent. We were surprised how smooth it all went after perhaps the first couple of turns. The iconography became easy to understand so quickly that I don't know what I was worried about. This was definitely my best game for 2023 and we are playing it again soon!
It's wild that I've watched over an hour worth of video teaching me a game I'll probably never actually play or own, but I put that down to the quality of the video production
i just got Anachrony a few weeks ago and have been really loving it - this one looks even more complex than that game! very excited to give this a try sometime, especially after watching this and getting a grip on the iconography!
