First, I agree that MCP is the best miniature game out there. I think you are too generous with your praise of AMG. Admittedly more consumer friendly than GW, but that is setting the bar pretty low. There is a very friendly community, but the competitive scene is a different world. The game has a huge learning curve to actually become good at it. Players that have been playing for a long time will crush beginners. There is also the meta which means certain characters greatly enhance your chance of winning. I think the thing I love most about the game is the power mechanic which means a game isn't over when one side begins to dominate. Their very domination makes the swing possible. Brilliant mechanic.

Thanks for this thorough and excellent playthrough! Based on my ATO rules knowledge, I think you got through with minimal rules mistakes. (I was yelling at the screen when you started to talk about discarding your exhausted weapon to perform a bonus attack but luckily you looked that up. :) ) Besides some token placement hickups I only have two things worth mentioning that was not already pointed out. One: you wrongly applied After Final Attack effects multiple times during the first fight. It is only resolved once after you went through all the attacks triggered by that AI card. Hence the "Final" part. Two: as you suspected, you did miss some of the theme of the second fight. The reveal effect text's terms you were looking for all over the board are actually the titles of said BP cards (representing that particular warrior). They want to bunch up because these effects trigger around them, so the tighter their formation the better they fight. Luckily I think you did not make your life accidentaly much easier because most of the time none or only one was revealed. For me, it looked like running squires are not that hard mode. As you also mentioned, their dodge ability seemed better than the chance an avarage knight gets, and they could hit and wound quite consistently. The starting gear obviously helped some but I think you could win even without them (at the cost of maybe loosing 1 or 2 men).
@Kiratze 20 сағат бұрын
Thanks for watching! Could you timestamp an example for the 1st mistake? Not sure what you mean by the "After Final Attack" that I missed. I'd like to know for the future! And as for the second one, while editing the video I did figure that out afterwards haha. You're right though that I don't think anything came of it as we wrecked them pretty well! I still think Squires are still "hard" mode but I don't mean that as they're impossible to win with or anything. But comparatively to running 4 Knights, you're objectively just weaker. The dodging on average is nice but I don't think that makes up for the lack of gear (and stat bonuses on weapons), technique cards, heroic arc, Heat limits, and Talents. You could even argue not drawing any Mortis cards is potentially negative as you're missing out on things like extra attacks.
@csonti3725 19 сағат бұрын
@@Kiratze 2:05:51 The attack starts here but it drags a bit because of zone measuring and stuff. At the end you move the monster 2 times based on its Flee 3 After Final Attack effect. Rulebook p.54, under After Attack: "An After Attack instruction that has more than one Target is resolved against each Target. However, if the Attack includes an After Final Attack instruction, it only takes effect after resolving the Attack against each of its Targets, against the last attacked Target." As for the Squires: I think they're perfectly fine without gear and extra modifiers, as even the starting deck seemed to lean heavily towards higher numbers. I didn't count it card by card, but they seemed to have a much better average "roll" than the expected 5 and 1/2 of a normal d10. Mortis draw could indeed be beneficial but it could also be absolutely devastating (in ATO it is roughly a 50-50 ratio). So I wouldn't count that as a net positive thing.
@Kiratze 19 сағат бұрын
@@csonti3725 Ahhh ok! Right. Definitely missed that. Just one of those slight change in wordings I missed. Used to that being just "After Attack" haha. And of course! Don't get me wrong, I think Squires are fine. But again, it's more comparing them to Knights and I still think they're objectively worse looking at the big picture. We also don't have the full breadth of Mettle cards, but depending on how good they are, they also might not scale as well as Knights when it comes to improving them which is another negative as I'm sure they'll lack the tools to stand toe to toe with some of the more difficult enemies.

I'm just getting into the game. Assembling my first minist and I have some thoughts. I don't like how some models have multi-part heads (2-3 elements). I mean why? This are small and would be much better to put together if they were single part (and some models have that). Some models have also some "spindly" bits that feel tricky to put together or pose correctly. Having said that this are minor complaints and p[robably no big deal for advanced hobbists. Can't wait to get into some actual games.

@@Kiratze Yeah, I still not sure if this is good or bad haha, cause it seem to make things easier in terms of investigations, like on 3 explorations with clues tiles you are done with them. But maybe its to compensate some of the things you talked about of using the squires. Also I think you played right the gold thingy, cause the rules for squires mentioned of them being treated like knights for various effects, so I am guessing that unless specify otherwise they are treated as such. Would be nice to know in an FAQ or something if gold actually goes to the single knight, which I dont think it could go anywhere else haha

I know a lot of you have been waiting for this from me! I spent a lot of time relearning this game but as you can expect, it's still a beast. So apologies for some rules errors but hopefully it's still a sound enough playthrough so you can understand the basics! One does not perfect these rules in one session 😅 BIG CORRECTION!: It seems I forgot to apply the "True Solo" rules which are found after Squire rules. The following I should have been doing: When traveling alone (Squires don’t count!), a lonely Knight has much more freedom to focus on their personal objectives. If you play with a single Knight, when you proceed to resolve an Investigation, apply the following rules: - Ignore drawing a Clue card. Instead, collect all types of Clues - When you collect 3 Clues of any type, immediately read the Success paragraph of the Investigation you resolved and discard all Clue tokens you’ve collected. Next, choose another Investigation from your Chapter to resolve. Immediately read the starting paragraph of that Investigation, then resume your expedition. You may succeed at up to three Investigations during a single expedition this way. - When you finish the third Investigation of your current Chapter (regardless if you manage to do so in one expedition or multiple), you may immediately end the expedition by proceeding to the Full Clash (as if your current Time was 16) or continue exploring the Kingdom until you run out of time. If you are playing with a single Knight you need to apply additional Delve and Clash rules: - If an effect targets a random Knight, prioritize your Knight. For example, if an effect targets two random Knights, it will target your Knight and one random Squire instead. - Your Knight always starts a Clash with the Priority Target token, regardless of the Passion values of the Squires. - During each Clash Setup, you may equip up to three Gear card from your Knight Armory (exchanging it with the Gear you already have equipped if you don’t have any free Gear slots).

Great video! I'm always skeptical abt games that center around dices as it leaves too much to chance. What are ur thought abt that?
@Kiratze 2 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching! I mean chance makes games exciting. There's a reason so many tabletop/board games utilize them. I love dice games. War/Skirmish games revolve around dice but they typically involve mechanics that minimize the chance or to make things more in your favour. So while games like Marvel Crisis Protocol have chance involved, there's lots of ways to re-roll dice, or modify them. There's still a lot of skill and agency involved despite the dice and skill when it comes to making choices regarding the chances of certain outcomes. Now that being said, you (or your opponent) will sometimes just get "diced". So there will be times where dice just go wildly in your favour or wildly against you. But those are the rare extremes. Just like in any dice game things average out. It's important to remember the people that design these games do the math in order to make the game as balanced as possible.

I’m considering getting into the game been more and more tempted as the weeks have gone by. The only games I currently play is Middle Earth SBG & Star Wars legion. Would you recommend the starter set? The main thing that’s tempting me to start is mostly the X-Men & Brotherhood characters not so much the stuff that’s in the starter set tbh. Do you think you can start with the X-Men affiliation set what else do you need to get started?
@Kiratze 4 ай бұрын
I mean just in terms of Money to Plastic, the starter set is incredible value. If you have even a slight inclination to play some of the models in it at some point I think it's worth getting. The terrain, dice, tokens, and measurement tools are the main reason to get the Starter Set. Those would be the other things you need other than models to play. Buying all that separately would run you a decent amount of money already so you're getting 13 models at a really discounted price from the Starter Set. The X-Men Affiliation box isn't enough to play on its own as the models in it only equal to 14 Threat. You need a minimum 15 Threat to actually play a 15-threat mission but even then that's not the "true" experience as that's where your roster of 10 models comes in. If cost is a main factor, I'd look for the 1st edition of the Core Set which will be cheaper. You'll have different version of the tokens and models than the Earth's Mightiest set but still fine/legal to use, and you'll have some outdated cards but all the updates can be printed for free off AMG's website. Some of the models are also still really good, like the original core set Baron Zemo is one of the best splashes in the game. You still get terrain, dice, measurement tools, but cheaper. Only main difference is you don't get Winter Soldier, and slightly less terrain. With the extra money you saved you can get the X-Men Affiliation Box and that's enough to make a full roster and start playing.
