How do you assemble the tech dial, the black thing wont fit, and no one ever makes a video showing how to do it

Great vid (2 years ago! wow) showed me how to set up and play quickly, then I played solo and finally read the rulebook! You are not supposed to know what the Automa is going to do in its next turn. This turns action card becomes the next turn's properties card by sliding over, that way you never know the action, just what the parameters might be! There are also 2 different research cards, one is a random tech with the other being the highest tech, easy to get this mixed up

FFFFFUCKS hahaha 😅

Thanks for your video. It's amazingly clear

We’re to find you game ?? 1:38 with your friend did you record it or anything?

Got this for chriatmas

Congrats on the success for another year.

Finally getting around to play this, thanks for making the vid. Very clear and to the point.

Very cool and helpful to see how the game is played thank you

Thank you best video I watched.

Really enjoyed the session! And loved that you added the rules explanations in between. Took like 2 weeks to watch this just a bit at a time with morning coffee. Now the most important question.... Where is the second part?!

57:07 there are 2 areas far right and the one with the brown? die if u put a die in far right it is contested

Game starts at 53:43

Awesome playthrough guys! One of our gaming group has this coming. Can't wait! Thanks!

Two _different_ actions.

TALISMAN!!!!

Lovely introduction to the campaign, Mike!

A great cause! Always happy to donate to the Thankmas stream! See you at the stream!

Can't wait for the stream ❤

Thank you Mike for this awsome review. Really liked Barrys final word "Coool" ;-) I am happy to tell you a few things you pointed out as being not so good (yes, you HAVE the points!). The rulebook - will get a full revision! Morale Track - gets a bit shorter (to - 3 instead -5) with "get 1 unrest at the bottom" instead loose 1 IP Frequency of fights - you may already choose a smaller map size if you want more combats (but I do not recommend in the first play) Morale up and down - You will get unrest token now; for taxes (3 Unrest for every leader instead -3 Morale), touching the bottom of the morale track,... Every unrest gives you -1 MO at the beginning of each round. But you can fight unrest with armies (harahar!! slay your unhappy people), feeding them well, or Bread and ciruses. And Culture will give you Morale Markers. These are offset with your Moralemalus from Cities. So at the beginning of a round the Cities Malus CAN be much lower. The new religion expansion may even reduce it to zero ;-) One more thing you may have played maybe wrong: The first player coming to a new age HAS to choose one of the open cards and this is scored for ALL. So maybe he will not get any points or just a few but is forced to give points to another player. BUT: depending on the choosen card he may choose to whow he wanna gives the points ;-))) Again, thank you very much. Yes, it´s not a game for all. It will never be and shall not be. It´s for us kinda nerds that love the big games.

this is one of my favorite Civ game

What are the skills of dagon at stage 1?

Will you upload a video for the second session?

Thank you very much for the excellent video.

1:12:00 heroes can’t come back into play immediately the turn after they’re killed. You have to wait a turn. (Rule book recommends you put counters on it as a reminder)

Well done for persevering with it. I'm playing this for the first time this week and following your sessions has helped prepare me.

Looks amazing! I know it is is no way similar to Arcs, but reminds me of it. I’m guessing it is a 2-3 hour game….sigh!

I don’t even really like space games and I’m so pumped for this

Long time subscriber, first time commenter. Amazing video, friends! Appreciate the editing work. Best Elder Scrolls playthrough currently on KZbin!

Looking forward to the Doria Livestream - let me know when this happens and is supposed to go live! 😊

Watched every minute. I have never been more excited about a board game in my life. Big ESO fan. Loved this playthrough. I haven't seen anyone do session 2 videos so I'm excited to see yours!

Where is the "MORE OATHSWORN COMING" part of the video?

If i understand correctly it has solo rules also?

from the book: Shipwright - Draw 4 upgrades. Players choose which combination of these cards from the Improvement and/or Artillery decks to draw, revealing the cards as they are drawn. Then: ● Purchase any of these for their cost and install on the ship ● Repair nodes On Deck for 5 Coin per node ● Install any acquired Schematics by paying half of their cost

It's a German U-Boat not Russian, hence the name U-Boot. WOW all the research and he screwed that part up pmsl 🤣

Cheers! Glad you mentioned this super thanks option during the stream. 🎃

2:28:52 They carry over. A section on concluding adeventure explicitly tells you to stuff your experience points into your rune bag. 2:59:04 The only way you can use Tower Lord's Sword for defence is combining it with some _skill_ feats with _instant_ keyword. 3:03:46 Lv1 Vitner Focus + Lv2 Vitner Blast, both buffed resolve as 5 + 1 (own buff) + 2 (skill buff) - 1 (enemy's defence), so 7. Then Lv 2 Dark tendrils (buffed) resolve as 2 x (2 + 1 (own buff) + 2 (skill buff) - 1 (enemy's defence)), so 2 x 4, totalling to 15. While it's uclear that Lv2 Dark Tendrils buff applies to both attacks - 2 * (2 + 2 (skill buff) -1 (enemy's defence)) + 1 still gives 7 and kills it, totalling to 14 - former seems more appropriate thematically.

1:56:58. You rid yourself of chronicle points prematurely activating items. And Volgr can do a bit more yet. When you don't have runes on a feat, you can still activate it one last time using proper combo. Suppose you have 3 feats with no runes and one rune on a skill that enhances your attack. You then activate (during resolution phase, not earlier) skill, then remove it's rune, then each other feat can be activated one last time (you flip the feat after last activation).

1:22:04 There are, starting with 2nd adventure. Volgr can heal you starting with Lv2 Defence. You don't really need healing in introductory adventure, all your deaths were for due mishandling boss' damage and misusing your hired help through assumption their feats are one shots. Vitner Focus + Lv2 Vitner Blast dispatches those buffed up Draugrs in a pinch by the way. While mage feats don't put healing token into your failure track, there are story moments that do.

36:31 Illegal move. Warrior's weapons item doesn't have *immediate* keyword to act prior to enemy attacks within resolution stage, and you can't skip planning one. Engage phase consists *always* of _simultaneous_ planning *and* resolution phase. You've also incorrectly spilled over dameage to second draugr, as Lv1 Parry applies damage to same enemy it blocks.

Any ETA on session 2?

27:16 It works either way as long as you have at least one *attack* type feat. By default you designate (in planning phase) one attack this *skill* type feat applies to. You have 2 attacks so you can upgrade *one* of them using this feat.

Hired hand's feats are not one-use. They can be used at most 3 times. Removal of one rune to contribute in a test merely reduces that to 2 times.

2:05:32 Again, Two Cleavers doesn't attack for 6, only 3 twice (number of attacks = number of characters incl. hired hand, right side of this equation applies as multiplier only to boss' HP calculation). Also, you can activate hired hands feats (subject to restrictions) thrice during the aventure. Removal of final rune means feat becomes one shot, you flip back the feat after 3rd activation.

1:56:28 You wouldn't have died if you would plan and resolve this engage phase correctly. You're using your mage feats and items like these were rogue's. This prematurely rids you chronicle points. Three Cleavers attacks twice for 3, you defend first attack with mud wall (losing 4 HP), then reveal attack modifier for next attack, potentially tanking by Volgr. Then you can skip phases and engage him again - 14 HP is no slouch even with illegal preemptive attack reducing it to 11, and your 2 Lvl1 Vintner Blasts + Volgr's Lvl1 Crush doing 9 in total (Two Cleavers' defence of 1 applies). Using items properly, you could probably still kill him in one engagement, having plenty of chronicle points to activate items.

We're traumatizing Michael again?! Excellent. I'll be watching this during work breaks for the next few days. 😆

15:58 Exactly why I call it 'Legacy of Dragonholt meets ISS Vanguard'.

I know it doesn't really matter Carson City was the capital of Nevada and it was settled around 1860 and not too long after the state became Nevada there's only a handful of other mining towns that existed before

Great playthrough, thanks!
