Beginner's Guide to THUNDERSPEAKER - Spirit Island

[@VictorSteiner]

Nice guide, but they are called DAhan, not DOhan :D This drove me crazy :D

[@jedisith3864]

Wow this is exactly the content I am hungry for! This game kind of overloads my head when learning new spirits so these videos are GOLD! Puuuuure gold. Also great job on pace and clear delivery throughout. You've got natural cadence and tone and a new subscriber too.

[@VictorSteiner]

The steam version takes off a lot of mental load in the evening because it highlights only the lands that can be chosen, and if there is only one possibility, it does so automatically and so on.

I was looking for spirit-specific strategy videos in the quest to digest all information there is on SI and was happy to discover your channel. I hope you will continue this series, the format is great!

[@onepipwonder915]

hey thanks Cyrg, really appreciate that!

[@brandoniv2923]

Thank you! This was awesome and love the format! You guys rock

[@besit]

Thank you! Just started playing SI. So far it's one of the best board games I've ever played.

[@florenckaf]

They're called dahan, not do-han. With an a and stress on the second syllable.

[@Kerbezena]

Yup, this! It is very distracting and while I like the idea of the video, I just stopped watching after 4½ minutes. Maybe I could continue with only subtitles. kzbin.info/www/bejne/haquYYWCm81lrtU this is the original Kickstarter video kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5axeqmcnpaEqNk this is GTG's "How To Play" In both you can hear the phrase "the island's native inhabitants, the Dahan". I still liked the video, but I cringe everytime I hear Dough-han.

[@Kaelan.B]

You don't mess with the Dohan...

[@Whipitgood]

This was SO helpful. I'm really struggling to pick up wins and I learned a ton from this. So glad I found your channel.

[@onepipwonder915]

I am glad too, thanks for letting us know :)

Thunderspeaker is a fast starter, on the easiest level they can kill everything pretty fast. I never consider going for the city fast, usually I just try to prevent the next buildings as fast as I can, I'll try your choice in the future.

[@Saxofaxo]

thanks. great video. you don't get fear for the dudes on the map, as far as I know.

[@JasonCookingham]

Thank you for the video. Thunderspeaker is my favorite spirit to play.

[@onepipwonder915]

your welcome! thanks for the feedback Jason

[@SaschaKleiber]

I wish you would blend in the cards youre using when doing stuff, e.g. at 12:00. How did you defeat the town after moving there? As a beginner (I already played some games, just not with this spirit) I'm having a hard time following.

[@MeepleUniversity]

Hi Jona, love Spirit Island! Thank you for the video! :)

[@onepipwonder915]

awesome, thanks for letting me know!

[@ryanodd4149]

Why do you like to destroy the city first? Isn't it more important to go for the lands on the invader track?

[@DanielMinottoII]

The first couple turns you usually don't have as many trouble spots so it's easier to focus on a city without sacrificing too much elsewhere on the board. Cities tend to be much hard to eliminate compared to towns so if you wait to deal with the city, often you won't get another chance until many rounds into the game.

[@mbalazs3544]

thx for this was super helpful

[@VictorSteiner]

Using events with this Spirit is so exciting because they can totally ruin you completely if suddenly cities deal +3 damage and 2 of your Dahan die instead of 0 :)

[@onepipwonder915]

sounds.... wonderful 😐 lol 😂 but I take your point, I can see how the events could be fun and full of suspense.

[@maccoy1138]

Thk u and the format is perfect. Kutgw

[@gabriellorenzo6589]

thanks for this!

[@norber04]

at 10:17 you added an explorer to Jungle 3, I believe this was a mistake as there is no town or city adjacent to this jungle (still learning but this is how we read the rule) unless there is a scenario or invader in play.

[@ronaldsanfran]

Explorers are also placed in coastal lands, regardless of whether there's an adjacent town or city.

[@MrThewalkingdead]

Where does the music come from?

[@onepipwonder915]

the intro was creator by my brother in law, the outro is from the KZbin audio library.

[@JPAYMENT]

Nice!
