Nice video. Great choices. But Ark Nova solo in 45 minutes? 🤔 Would love to be able to do that. I've got 7 plays of it solo now, but I am at about 2 hours. I do take my time thinking a few turns ahead, but would not see it going near an hour anytime soon. I might be a little AP-prone though. Must point out though that I really really like it and the time flies when playing.

When an epidemic card is drawn, you need to infect that city with three cubes not one, that would’ve caused a couple of outbreaks. Besides that a very good play through, thank you for doing this.
@MichaelrstedАй бұрын
Fine play through. Though some thoughts. Zoom in one the actual player board and the game. No need for your face camera to take up 1/3 of the screen width. Could be nice to see your cards in hand (out of screen). Very difficult to follow along with what is played as it’s so zoomed out the icons are tiny.

It's always interesting to see different rankings of the Tiny Epic games. Tiny Epic Pirates has really grown on me the more I play it. I'm starting to see some deeper strategies I didn't see before which intrigues me. Besides Pirates my other top TE games are . . . 3. Dinosaurs 2. Dungeon 1. Galaxies

THE TE opinions are to much variables and sometimes cotradictory, maybe the only thing constant is that everyone loves galaxies and hate mechs

I needed "American playing card" sized sleeves here, and found that Ryker had a good cost-to-quality ratio (at least in Canada). These have mat backs and clear front. They're a little thick for my tastes, but great quality.

I have a few of these that I own but have never played. Thanks to this run down I'll probably break some out at my next game night. P.S. I do have Western and if I remember I'll bring it to this years Kanatacon if you want to try it out. Kind of funny since it's a Tiny Epic and fits everything into such a small box but the playmat is huge.

I'm definitely up for trying it! They really cram a lot into each box, and in many cases make liberal use of large cards instead of map tiles.

i wonder if u had a sudden death option and then instead of player elimination all equipment u had gets destroyed and goes out of the game, u begin w a new not used before character in the med bay space ,like a setback but still a compromise between the game mechanics and the theme, and if there is no more characters that hasn't been used ur out of the game, but that would probably not happen not w these rules anyways, lol

im sorry i ment on the 'quiet' cards the character dies on a roll of one, on a 'hunt ' or 'stalk' they die on a one or two and ultimately on a conceal token they die on a 1-3 roll, going from 16%👉🏼33%👉🏼50%!! 👽👻🙊😳😬🙀
@uwiejeuehdnwusndns5 ай бұрын
a lot of the rules makes a lot of sense, still its not complete without at least a CHANCE that every time u encounter the alien u could die, like on a dice roll of one f.ex, this should create a lot more tension and suspense in the game cuz then u can never really relax encountering the alien !!

Great suggestion. The die roll could be based on the token number for variability. It would definitely make the "Director's Cut" rules even harder though!

A tip on the box sleeve, if you cut across the back of the box diagonally once, corner to corner then use scissors to cut that into halves you can tuck the shrink into the inside of the lid. Trim and tape it for a more permanent solution. Otherwise, like you did here, it will slide off during handling of the game.

It took you 41 minute to get your first point. I just got this game and did my first solo playthrough and after 6-7 conflicts and 70 minutes the score was 2-2 lol. I love the idea of this game but scoring to 10 seems so hard and the game will probably just end when the conflict cards run out. Am I just bad or what's going on with the ultra low scoring? Update questions: 1) Can you earn victory points for pairing conflict cards multiply times in a game or just the one pairing with your objective card? 2) are sandstorms pretty much required to keep up with the AI in terms of scoring? 3) does anyone know if the expansions make it faster to score points?
@CardboardMinute5 ай бұрын
The game definitely ramps up as you gain cards and other ways to score. To answer your questions: 1) Each matching pair is a point 2) I've seen strategies without sandworms win, like going for the point cards, but they are not as straightforward 3) The expansions open up some options in gameplay. If anything, the IX expansion would let you use the Dreadnoughts to compete with worms.
@mckeoncrawford92625 ай бұрын
@@CardboardMinute thank you for responding. I've played about 7 solo games now at 3-4 player counts. Games usually end around conflict 8. I definitely prefer to use worms against the AI because they usually don't or maybe just one rival gets them in time.
