Nice séries of vidéo! Where have you find this sheet?

At 10:45, you only earn Swarm and Rotte when all fighters are determined. Yours are evasive therefore you did not earn Schwarm or Rotte. Also at 39 minutes, position advantage must have different position and altitude. You only have different positions but the same altitude, high. Escorts on the formation map stay in place unless there are 2 or more escort chits in the same box, then one returns to the station.

I just gave up on this game tonight. I am done being the chew toy for the game designer’s sadism.

Ты молодец. Хороший парень ! А я не догадался дубинкой. Дверь сломать.)) вот

The location of the merchants on the map is incorrect. They are shifted up one position. They should be lower.

your voice sound's too low

I was thinking of getting Dungeon Universalis or League of Dungeoneers. Watching playthroughs on both. I was leaning towards this one because it seems to much more immersive, but jeesh, it's just SO many rules and charts and "remembering" details. I think LoD seems more streamlined. This game seems like every turn is "If and but when could maybe" to look up.

That is so fascinating, if you are good at cyber attacks (that comes up *again*) you actually want all your allies to be really stressed out since they tend to do more impactful stuff. I never would have thought about that. Also, I am pretty sure that combined war really should have been one single war. Not for any rules reason, it just seems kind of silly to set up and immediately conclude two wars in a row.

Great use of the special actions. Looks like you're really getting the hang of this. I agree with what you said in another video, I would love to have a couple people all playing this game at once. You could even divide it up if you wanted so each person was "role playing" one or more of the cabinet positions. Wishing you the best for year two. I am looking forward to the absolute insanity that will happen when all those tension counters get added up.

This game in particular definitely makes me see why so many modern board games use a deck of modifier cards rather than a dice roll. I never really got it before, but knowing that you will get some good and some bad modifiers and that they will balance out would really make this game feel less swingy.

There is so much that goes on in one of these turns. It looks like civil wars can absolutely wreck your global position, so maybe if there is a way to get ceacefires that should be prioratized some more? Seems like something an ally in the region could try and do. Or at least a UN action.

Hi - have you incorporated the updated changes from the errata in your playthrough? FYI - GMT is offering an errata kit on its website and should get delivered later this year but I believe they have posted the changes already.

Think when its the last hour of the day there is a rule stating your only allowed to have a certain number of squadrons on petrol. Thats to stop you using them all.

I was about to write in the old series that missing the charts/booklets break the watching of the game; great that you did the effort to restart! Looking forward to the series

Good luck! I've been watching this all along. Hope for a better outcome this time. So much of this game seems to depend on the initial roll for the US to improve their cyber security.

54:30 Is pooling the sixes legit, as searching corpses is made for each individual killed enemy?

Hi 21:16 Wouldn't the Assassin block the Los between the Archer and the Paladin?

Thanks for your playthrough! I would not "rewind" past errors: you are bound to make many (some you won't spot), so better move on rather than redo history. Rewinding takes considerable time and this game is closer to a rpg than to a tightly knit wargame - and even in a complex wargame, there is an instruction not to go back to correct an error when long past its commitment. But thanks for explaining how the system works: it helps me understand and learn it! 👍🏻👍🏻

I am just trying out this game for the first time, and I find your playthrough very helpful. But I have to point out, as you said at the beginning: you need to read slowly (and thoroughly!). You tend to skip paragraphs, if the first line does not apply, thus only playing half the game. For instance: China and Russia will always perform espionage. You read "if relations is 1 or 2 and posture is 2... it is not" so you skipped the rest of the paragraph, which ends with "otherwise...". Also, when you rolled a 4 on the D6-table, you concluded it was a waste of time, because there were no bills in play, but you missed the "if none, the -1AP, -1PA". But as I wrote, I have learned a lot from your playthrough. Thank you!

Game went south when china hacked your internet and uploaded bidenomics

Us military forces dont lose strength, you take a PR/media hit instead

The allies in Congress help with controlling Congress or introducing bills or something dont remember for sure.

Play easy mode so you can control both houses and get some legislation done.

1:09:00 you sure those rolls are d10 and not d6?

The Chinese hack that crashed my economy killed me. I did a quick check on how the end of year works....I'm going to get a loss unless I can seriously turn around a few things. I don't even know if it is possible!!

-1 drm per ap to a maximum of 2 ap doesn't mean 2 ap for a -1 drm. You would get -2 for 2 ap.

Stuka Joe has some great cards you can download explaining the steps of the rules. Very useful to use.

I always thought a “follow up raid” was the same target again ?

It's important to remember that to produce resources, you must discard the card that produce them. So you do not get any tradegoods, for instance, until you discard a card to produce with it.

2:15:23 No you cannot upgrade that. You gotta *pay as normal* . You had nowhere near the ressources to upgrade that mine.

1:55:18 Whatever that *bing* sound was, it fit the upgrade so well XD

Great fun watching you play one of my favorite games! Happy surprise for you to get to play all the way to card 70😀 I noticed a few rule mistakes that can have an impact on your game though, I'll just pay them here so nobody gets confused: - when cards are discovered, they always go into discard pile (not into play), so you can't use them right away. - The bandit only blocks when it is played, if no gold-producing cards are in play you are in luck! The bandit does not block cards that are played later. - Whenever a card is rotated or flipped, it is always discarded. So you cannot turn it, and then use it. - at 55 mins, just a clarification: all effects are not simultaneous; "when played" effects happen at once, before other effects can be used. And when a card is blocked, you cannot do anything with it. - and you may not look at cards until you discover them (so no spoilers, even for yourself). I hope that helps, and that you continue to enjoy the game! Cheers!

Thought you couldn’t have more than two units in a stack ? You had two infantry and a tank together

Yeah you screwed up that sticker, you put it right on the boobs.

Press R while hovering above a dice to roll it that way it doesn't fall off :)

GS and SA are the Gulf States and Saudi Arabia. Basically Iran v their neighbors.

First, thank you for your videos, I am really enjoying them. A couple of additional notes, when selling items you divide by 2 and round up, so Ch. 1 items still sell for 1 iron. Also, you were ambushed at the end of the story for chapter 2 (timestamp 1:08:47), when you tried to save Tam. You would skip the first two phases of the first round and the Satyr would attack you first (Encounter Rule Book, p.8).

Watch your AP's - they are getting low and you are only in the 1st Phase - maybe don't spend so many on re-rolls unless you really need to hit that roll - some cards need you to spend AP's to stop bad things happening and a lot of the Master actions need you to spend an AP to even try doing them

I can look at the discarded cascading events at any time so you can possible deal with them

I watched a few people play this when it came out and all I can say is...good luck. Honestly it seems really weighty for not much actual fun (probably an accurate depiction of being President honestly). If there was a video game version of this where everything just did what it was going to do automatically until you needed to make a decision I would be a lot more interested in it.

You will soon get into the swing of things after a few phases - you get quicker as you go along

Read the note at the bottom of party relations should have removed one counter randomly

This is Mike Bertucelli, the developer for Mr. President, very nice and thorough job on setup. I hope you enjoy the game. I'll give you one pair of advice that will help you immensely, read everything slowly, and carefully with the emphasis on everything.

Sound is really quiet?

FYI - GMT has already indicated that there is a massive errata update coming out and is available on preorder. A 2nd edition incorporating all of the errata is also available for preorder.

Make sure you check out 13.22 in the rulebook on US control of a hex for purposes of VP. TL;DR you need control (via a unit or blocking German communication to the hex), US Communication, and no German-occupied positions projecting a FoF onto the hex. You cover this yourself at about the 37:00 mark.

@24:54 Units in command of an HQ include the HQ's Radio among their weapon capabilities.

@2:30 Per 6.41, disrupted units and their depth markers are not considered when determining if the position is eligible to fire or when determining how many units the position can hit. So I contend that WN62 would not fire in your double-Green example since there's only a single unit without a depth maker in the mix for determining if it meets the criteria to fire.

I know this video is years old but I just got this game and this video is by far the best introduction that I’ve seen! Thank you for going into such detail. Outstanding player aid!!!
