Time to try out something a bit new for you all! In an effort to get some more lean, mean, streamlined content, I wanted to try out a mechanic-focused series, and happened to be able to start off with both one of my personal favorites AND a request! Enjoy!
Most importantly, please let me know what you think about this! Would it be worthwhile to do more of them, as occasional supplemental videos? If so, what game(s)/mechanics? Let me know in the comments below!
Be sure to follow me on Twitter ( / dannycgamingsci ) and Twitch ( / blutspitze ) for notifications of new videos and livestreaming games!
I'm on Facebook now, as well! Check out my page at / dannycgamingsci

Thanks Danny. Very helpful for those of us trying to figure this out. Great job explaining all of this.

[@DannyCGamingFandomandScience]

You're very welcome, sir! Glad it was understandable!

[@sebastianlarsen6923]

This was amazing so much better than all the other options out there full of unnecessary skits and personal opinions. Thank you.

[@DannyCGamingFandomandScience]

Thanks very much! I'm glad that you enjoyed it. Honestly this was made as a bit of a test to see about making more of these types of videos - really concine info on a particularly unusual/fun game aspect. It didn't really catch on, but I still think the concept isn't a bad idea.

Does the BT have to reveal their location if the other players pass through where they are but don’t end their turn where they are? We played where maybe a player moves twice and the BT would be like you saw me when you passed through X city.. then that player would be like oh then actually I only move once and stop there. Felt janky and I figured maybe because they have to end their turn there?

[@DannyCGamingFandomandScience]

Since the move (drive) actions technically happen one by one, the BT would say "I'm here" and put their pawn down when a player enters the city. If the player continues on, the BT pawn is taken back up. You were essentially correct, except that there should be an overall stop when in any city. Definitely easier to play by just moving x spaces though, I know.

Can you explan all the possible ways the BT can cause outbreaks. And if there is 3 black cubes on a city and the BT infect that city with a purple. Does it cause an outbreak?

[@DannyCGamingFandomandScience]

Purple acts as it's own separate disease. It can outbreak on its own (doing a "flare out" as explained in the rules), but adding purple where there's 3 of another color doesn't break out the other. Similarly, during the infection phase when someone draws a card and puts one regular color and one purple, both colors can outbreak simultaneously.

@@DannyCGamingFandomandScience thanks

[@RobertSiemer]

You have a mistake in your video: sabotaging/removing a lab does not require the card of the city, just a card with the same color as the city. (You also have to be there and be hidden, as you said.)

[@DannyCGamingFandomandScience]

Oh dang; good call! Thanks very much for the correction!

Please add captions!

[@DannyCGamingFandomandScience]

Thanks very much for the suggestion. I've debated doing captions, but unfortunately I don't really have the time to do them myself. All my videos should have auto-generated captions, so hopefully those are at least somewhat helpful.
