1:20 Looks as though that recon unit moved illegally as it went from EZOC to EZOC when it crossed the river. You mention that it doesn’t need to pay the +2 to leave an EZOC due to the ‘Holding the Line’ rule but that rule doesn’t allow EZOC to EZOC movement as you then mention a minute later! Really enjoying this playthrough while I wait for the new Deluxe edition of the game to arrive, so, many thanks

This game at first glance seems insanely complicated. And it is. But the flow seems easy to grasp, and the individual actions aren’t complicated. There’s just so much to do. It’s a cool sandbox. I hope to be able to get my hands on this game eventually. Hope to see more rounds of this!

WOW, what a video. you worked so hard keeping track of all 6 players. I am just learning the game and this is one of the best videos out there. I hate to look a gift horse in the mouth, but I sure wish you could have shown at least one of the Peace and Rebel processes.

Thanks for making these videos even if we didn’t get a conclusion. Maybe we can convince you to do another play through. You are easy to follow and help new players like me learn to play with your explanations. Please consider doing another play through!

Thank you for this fantastic video. I discovered you and I love how you explain things. I might have misunderstood the rules, but it seems in this particular Scenario than players start during SUMMER Year 1, not SPRING. Hence, 1 more Turn overall (not sure which Faction benefit from it tho). Anyway, THANK YOU again, keep at it.

Not sure you could have take Nordhome. I have a feeling that to take controll you have to end your action on the settlement, which would mean no further movement, and you have moved out of it on the same turn.

I have to admit right off the bat that I don't like card driven games. Twilight Struggle is my least favorite game I own of all time. However I am desperately trying to learn and like this game so I really appreciate the great videos you have done. So far I would sum up the way this game plays as, "Oh look the Japanese played the Royal Fizzbin card but the allies have a Shronk card, so the Japanese player jumps up runs around the table three times and as it is a full moon on an alternate Thursday and Wally's wifes second cousin was in Osaka for his honeymoon, New Jersey surrenders!"

At 12:00 you talk about using Ambush on the fortified settlement, but that's not allowed per the rules in section 4.4: "Fortified Settlements may not be targeted by Strikes. An Attacking unit with Stealth may not declare an Ambush against a Fortified Settlement."

@aceshelman 2 ай бұрын

At 5:30 you should have rolled the two critical hits to confirm, not just doubled the damage from 2 to 4. Yes these are automatically "Critical Hits" due to the spell, but, they still need to be confirmed/rolled against for the bonus damage according to the rules as I read them: "When resolving Combat or a Strike, a die roll result of 7+ is both a success and a Critical hit. Each Critical hit may score one additional success if confirmed. To confirm a Critical hit, 1ois rolled."

I love this game and I like watching well made videos of people who know how to play it. Subscribed and liked! One thing as I watch, naval or land battles won net the active player one mil cube for the first combat in a round. You shorted Castile so far. At 46:37 Ottomans should have included that light ship in the trade protection slot in their naval battle with Venice, they are compelled too, I believe.

@6cylindertuned 2 ай бұрын

Also, the Aegean Archipelago is a distinct Area that happens to also look like an additional sea. Ottoman ships never once left the Aegean Sea Zone. It is not entirely clear to me you ever need ships to transport a soldier from one island to another as all three provinces are all effectively in it (not that you did, just clarifying the consequences for later). Here Ottomans moving ANY land units to the Archipelago would trigger both Naxos and Creta soldiers. But on the plus side the Ottomans don't have to transport again to siege the various islands down. In game terms they are effectively close enough.

@6cylindertuned 2 ай бұрын

1:24:25 You determine trade Power with Ownership. To Own a province a PR must be the De Jure and De Facto owner. Bordeaux's De Jure owner is France and it's De Facto owner is England, as far as trade is concerned no one owns Bordeaux for this Trade Action.

@ericpearson4937 2 ай бұрын

Love that you are doing this! Thank you. A couple things I’m not sure about. 1. I thought the Coastal regions are land areas. I think the Ottomans only need adjacent ships in the adjacent sea area (which you already had) for troop transport. 2. To enforce Parial Victory against a PR, I think you need 2x the deployed troops. I don’t think France could enforce Victory unless England Surrendered.

I liked this phase. I think there was "fun" here. Purchasing units and building fortifications give you the opportunity to decide for stuff before the military phase, instead of everything being fixed by the initial setup. (I like your videos for this game too).

Very good video. Looking forward to the next one. 1:04:00 The War of the Roses card reads: exhaust 2 Manpower OR add unrest to Wales and Wessex. You hit them with both. 1:33:30 I don't think England can count Bordeaux for Trade power. The definition of Ownership on p.4: "When the rules refer to Ownership of Provinces, they mean Provinces where you have a Town , and where there is no Vassal , Rebel , *Enemy town*, or Occupied token on the same Province".

Questions: 4:48 "Call of the Wild" card; is this a blessing and can it be played on the opponent's turn without the Cantrip symbol? 17:04 Can you build units on a besieged port settlement; 2 enemy units in adjacent hexes? I think it happens twice. Great videos by the way. I look forward to these. Also a shout out to Chris Moeller, the rule book is very well designed. I was able to look up multiple rule questions I had very quickly.

You may have spotted some errors on my part. Only cantrips can be played on an opposing side's turn, and a port with two besiegers cannot build or recover units. Thanks!
