Great play and great video. I really loved watching it. Scoring 300+ seemed impossible to me 😄 I think you made a little mistake when using the advanced Deep Space Missiles tech in your last attack. It does only add 1 approach damage per sector(!) that has a ship yard not per ship yard.

Hi Adrian! Loving your videos. How do you get so skilled at these games? I love me a good heavy euro, but I'm not very good at them. Learned a lot from your strategy videos! Also, some other games you might like: - Gaia Project - Spirit Island - Lost Ruins of Arnak.

01:01:18 - how can you jump to that sector without hyperdrive tech? And if I understood correctly - you can jump by two sectors away from your place. And you jumped over 3 sectors away. I might be wrong, cause my English is not pretty well. So I might loose something. P.S. Ah...I got it. Wormholes. You can jump through them as 1 move action. Ok.

I’ve read page 2 multiple times. It does not say to disregard the 4 extra pawns. Gaia Project has a “3rd player” so I would think the same applies here.

I enjoyed this. It's really refreshing to see someone on youtube who not only understands fully the rules but is also practiced and competent in the game they are filming and uploading. All the bigger channels muddle themselves through 3 hour videos without really knowing what they are doing. Content like yours deserves a lot more exposure!

Great video play through. Instant subscribe from me. One thing I noticed though at 59 minutes... If you use a catastrophe to deal with a war card, you do not discard the war card. (page 14 of rulebook)
@nofriendsgg4 ай бұрын
The war card doesn't get discarded because of the catastrophe. It gets discarded because it's the end of the round - in a solo game, that's just the one solo turn, whether a catastrophe was taken or not. That clarification in the rulebook is to make sure that each player has to deal with the war in a multiplayer game - you can't discard the war to stop it affecting the other players who haven't acted yet that round.

Fantastic play! Just to be clear for beginners, even if there's no problem the way you play it, in the rules you reveal the Alert THEN choose and play your Focus (newbies could think you have to Focus without knowing what Crisis/War you're facing). Also, you discard Glory tokens in excess at the end of your turn, not after resolving invasion (in the case you invade twice during a turn, more Influence!). That's nitpicking and this playthrough is really great 😁

This is an amazing playthrough, you are so quick at analysing the state of the board! Quick question; at 1:39:25 you don’t seem to refer to the additional fleet power that the Voidborn get in Cycle 2 and 3. Or did I get this rule wrong. And you don’t seem to add it to the fleet value when you assess the War card earlier in the cycle. If you can clarify this it would help, as I’m still very bad at the game.

That additional Voidborn strength only applies in the end-of-cycle evaluation phase.

Great work on this video! I really appreciated the card zoom-ins and the annotations. None of the other Voidfall Solo videos up on KZbin are willing to tackle a Hard difficulty High Complexity scenario. It was a real joy to watch this, and I'm excited to view your next Voidfall video. I'd also really look forward to seeing how you play some of the harder-to-score-high-with houses (such as Astoran, Thegwyn, Kradmor, etc.) Thanks again for making such high-quality (and high-difficulty) content!
