Descent Second Edition - How To Play

[@WatchItPlayed]

NOTE: I'm frequently asked about the example at 18:10, and why there isn't line of sight to the spider. The LOS can't cross anything, including the target model itself (I know that's odd, but that's how it goes). So before getting to that back right corner of the spider, it would cross through the spider itself, so line of sight is considered blocked.

[@sababezhashvili598]

At 18:02, Lorick still has line of sight on the spider - Draw a line from lower left corner of Lorick to lower right corner of the spider. The line will exactly pass both corners of the obstacles.

[@WatchItPlayed]

@@sababezhashvili598 Please read the comment you are replying to more thoroughly, you are missing that the Line of Sight cannot pass through ANYTHING, including the target itself. To get to that bottom right corner of the spider's space, it would have to pass through the spider itself, which is not allowed.

[@perphektxero453]

This is how game reviews should be conducted. Show people how the game is set up and played, let them make their determinations. No judgments, just the facts of the games and conducted in a very polite and friendly manner. Also, I felt this was much more streamlined than the instructions. Watch it Played will be my go to for any game considerations and instructions now on.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Really glad you enjoyed this - glad to have you joining us!

[@PriNcEoFSpAcE009]

ditto.

[@Mark-OutWest]

I hear what you are saying. Rodney is definitely the pinnacle of instruction and clarity, but I also like what the dice tower does. Their insight is also important in deciding on a purchase.

[@RokuRG]

Review is, by definition, giving your opinion, not explaining the rules. This is not a review.

[@AviticusDragon]

Some of the best tutorials I've seen regarding board games, hands down. Very clear and precise instructions and quality production values. ::Salute::

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thank you Aviticus, that is high praise and I am humbled. This one was a big one to tackle, but I was really happy o be able to share it.

[@videoGunZ]

The manual is written pretty well, but your video is much easier and more entertaining! thank you so much for sharing :)

[@WatchItPlayed]

Very kind of you to say - glad you enjoyed it Levin!

[@RuairiOTuathail]

Levin Street LP Agreed. Very clear. tnx

[@mainHERO88]

I made it to the end of the video! Ive had my eye on this game for YEARS and I finally got a copy of it that should be arriving in the next day or two. This is by far the best board game turorial that I've seen and I'm sure that I'll be reviewing chunks of it when I try to play the game this weekend. Thanks for making this!

[@WatchItPlayed]

I'm so glad you found this helpful Hero88 :) I hope you have a great time playing!

[@ChadRyanMiller]

Ordered this online today after my local game store said they were sold out. I was disappointed that I couldn't play tonight, but watched your video all the way through so I could be ready to play when it arrives next week. Thanks for putting in the time and effort to do the video!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Here's hoping you don't have to wait long, and once it arrives, you can dive right in!

[@dynamations318]

I've only just discovered this game and Im already hooked before even playing!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Glad you enjoyed what you saw!

[@patricknoto3891]

My buddy and I loved playing this game years ago. That fire recently rekindled and we’re excited to dive into a campaign this weekend. Thank you for a concise video that allowed me to easily refresh myself of the rules!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Always fun to revisit a favorite! Have a great time going back into the dungeons!

[@scriptulike]

That was an absolutely superb tutorial. Very professional. Terrific clarity. Very grateful to you.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Well thank you - knowing you found it helpful means a lot to me. Very kind of you to say.

[@peterbridgwater1416]

This is succinct enough to watch, factually dense enough to convey all the rules, logically organised to flow well and delivered in such a way to keep it interesting. These are by far the best instructional videos I have seen. Many of the others can be manic, disorganised and sometimes annoying. Not only are you brilliant at explaining the games; the others should be learning how to teach it from you!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks for the high praise Peter, very glad you enjoyed the video!

[@matroska_5625]

First time watching one of your videos and I'm very impressed. Excellent production values and expertly explained with great clarity.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks so much Luke, very glad you enjoyed it - I hope you stick around :)

[@ripper2969]

Much easier to understand in your video than reading through the instructions, thank you for this. I watched it til the end and answered 4 out of 5 questions i had about game play, Very good reference material.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Great to hear - glad it was helpful Ripper!

[@PlysovejKaktus]

18:00 How about drawing the line from the bottom left corner of the attacker to the bottom right corner of the spider? That would as well go through the point between the obstacles.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Hey, you'll find a quick note in the description of the video that addresses this.

[@PlysovejKaktus]

Thank you for repeating it again :) Descriptions... I know. Very well explained rules. Seems simple now, thank you!

[@WatchItPlayed]

No worries at all - it's a common question, so I always understand why people think to ask.

[@matthewmurdock408]

Just played this yesterday for the first time, and now after seeing your video, Im kicking myself in the butt for not watching your video first! Wouldve saved ALOT of our play time sifting through the rule books,etc. Very well done and MUCH more clear than the rule book!!! Thank you and keep up the great work!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Very glad we could help, hope you enjoy your future plays of the game!

[@errolwilde1656]

I made it to the end I want my thumbs up! lol

[@WatchItPlayed]

+Errol Wilde You got it! *thumbs up*

[@christopherjohnson193]

I just ordered this game on a recommendation from someone in a Facebook group I'm in. I must say I'm really glad I watched this video and subscribed to your channel! You did a phenomenal job explaining everything so clearly that I already feel comfortable about playing once it gets here! Thank you for putting so much effort into these videos for us!

[@WatchItPlayed]

So glad you liked the video and found it helpful - I hope you have a great time with the game!

[@cgrisetti87]

Made it to the end! Thanks for this instructional! I'm thinking about starting a campaign with some friends at my house.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Well done :) That was a lengthy watch! Hope you guys have a great time with it.

[@musicalsatoritime]

My brother just bought this game and now he own't have to explain it all to me when we play it for the first time. This was a great video!

So glad it was helpful Ronald :)

Why i would not watch "how to play" video to end.? You sir get like for answering every question about gameplay i got :)

So nice to here the video was helpful - glad you enjoyed it and I hope you have a great time with the game!

[@Vetano]

Thanks for these awesome videos! Your structure, pacing, level of detail and overall flow is impeccable! I saw this game at a small gaming convention this weekend and it looked awesome so now I'm doing a bit of research if I should buy it (actually I already know that I want to buy it, just need to ask some buddies so we can start a group). Thanks again! :)

[@WatchItPlayed]

***** Very pleased you enjoyed the video, and I hope you find some friends to join you in the adventures!

[@jkwatcher47]

I just got a screaming deal on a complete Descent 2e bundle (I know, I’m behind) It is wild going back to these older how to videos! You have a gift at explaining games. You were doing fantastic work even back then!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Very kind of you to say - and have a great time exploring the game!

[@Spiderboydk]

Very clear and unambiguous explanation. Good work.

[@WatchItPlayed]

+Claus Jensby Madsen Thanks so much Claus!

[@Spiderboydk]

+Watch It Played You're welcome. :-) Explaining the rather complicated rules while not shying away from the corner cases is not a small feat. The amount of planning and preparation put into the tutorial pays off. I can imagine you would be able to properly explain, say, Magic: the Gathering to a newbie. Not many can pull that off without either causing confusion or omitting all the corner cases - or both.

[@WatchItPlayed]

+Claus Jensby Madsen Yes, the main thing is the preparation. Without it, a video for a game like this would likely be a train wreck. At least for me to create :)

[@JaiSherwood]

This video has got me so pumped to play descent! It's in the post and the suspense is killing me! These videos are so informative, thank you very much! Keep up the great work

[@WatchItPlayed]

+JaiSherwood Hey - thanks Jai! Here's hoping it arrives quickly so you can play soon :)

[@TheAgentTexas]

Looks like D&D except it doesnt have near as many things to confuse you.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Did you get a chance to try this one?

[@TheAgentTexas]

@@WatchItPlayed unfortunately no. A lot of my friends are surface level board gamers. They aren't really interested in stuff on this level, but I'm working on them 🙂

[@WatchItPlayed]

[@facundogambier395]

I watched this entire video after reading the rules for the first time and it was totally worth it! Man, you're great. I'm from Argentina, so English is not my first language but I was able to understand everything you were saying. Really helpful video! You explained some cool exceptions that, otherwise, I would have overlooked. Thank you, thank you very much for this video.

[@WatchItPlayed]

And thank you for such kind feedback, I'm so glad you found it helpful!

[@TheRealPuddin]

Just purchased this game to play with my family, so these videos are extremely useful for giving me a headstart in setting up and playing the game - much appreciated!

[@pittsburghretrogaming8916]

Made it to the end! This is really helping inform my decision and you guys are by far the best table top review channel I have found so far!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy the content!

[@fimarach]

Made it through in one go. Personally when I teach others how to play a game, I like to start with the goal/objective/method of winning and be clear about it but to each his own.

[@WatchItPlayed]

That's a very solid strategy and I almost always followed that, but I've changed my method over time. I'm now trying to define 'some' of the game terms first so that when you describe the objective the player has a context for what the objective means. "Trade goods with fief lords to secure the highest rank in the kings court" could be pretty confusing as a game objective if you don't really know what any of the terms mean or the role you are playing in the game. Not disagreeing with you - just sharing my thinking on this.

[@CMPerry]

I made it to the end of the video and like always I was not disappointed in any way! I know this video is older but I just wanted to refresh my self on how to play. Your videos are always top notch content. Thanks for what you do.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks CM - glad the refresher helped!

[@MaatUMD]

As requested. Finished the video and found it to be a good start to getting the rules down 100%. Bought this on a whim the other day, and I like to start with your videos before delving into the rule book. Keep it up!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks Matt, glad to hear we've been helpful!

[@heinzkrause2650]

Made it to the end. What a game! Thank you for explaining all this because it is always so much nicer to see and listen than just to read the manual!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Very pleased you survived and enjoyed the video :)

[@KODIDSB]

Excellent tutorial, I have never played Descent before but after watching this video I have an undeniable urge to go out and purchase the 2nd edition and get to gaming. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!

[@WatchItPlayed]

My pleasure Vincent, glad you enjoyed it!

[@clammy721]

Excellent breakdown of LOS. Thank you! For whatever reason, I'm always confused when it comes to LOS, but after being able to SEE your examples and hear your explanation, I think the lightbulb in my spongey brain finally went off...even if it is still a little dim. Thanks again Rodney!!

[@WatchItPlayed]

LOS can be challenging!

[@johnsmith3085]

Thank you so very much for taking the time to make a video of such depth and quality. You saved me so much time and confusion and referencing the rules. Kudos and keep up the good work!

That's wonderful feedback. Very glad to have played our small part. Hope you have many fun gaming sessions ahead!

[@trevorwilson29]

Have just picked up this game after waiting for a better Solo option to become available (Road to Legend App.) - decided to watch your videos again to pick up the basics before I start playing. Really helpful and informative, as always. You must live and breathe games and rule-books. Many thanks for taking the time to make these videos.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Heheh, I do tend to have my nose in a rule book most days. Glad you liked the video!

I made it to the end !! What an Awesome Video! I feel ready to brawl with the dark Monsters of the Overlord with my friends. You made a very confident and definitive impression. Very slow speaking pace and Topic progression, with constant reminders and remarks to information that can be explored one self. Simply awesome.

[@WatchItPlayed]

So glad you found this helpful - happy adventuring!

[@jameslittle9832]

Thank you so much!!! I have always wanted to get into tabletop gaming, and have finally begun the descent. Your videos make these games very accessible, and also provide easy introductory content, so that opening up the box and beginning your first play through isn't overwhelming.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks really nice to hear James - welcome to the hobby!

[@AsatorMK]

Thank you very much for taking the time to make these videos. You should be endorsed by the developers, as you have explained essentially all of my questions better than their FAQ did. I only got the game today, but I'm in love. The LOS and skill explanations helped a whole lot. Keep it up!

[@joyfuljenilee]

Watched the whole thing. My husband and I think this might be a good dungeon-crawling game to bridge the gap between Mice and Mystics (which we LOVE!) and Pathfinder (which sounds fun, but also intimidating) in terms of difficulty, complexity, and rule sets, as we are fairly new to the gaming world. We have enjoyed the videos you have made that we have seen so far, and thank you for laying everything out so clearly. There is so much information, but you do a wonderful job of communicating it. Thank you!

I've been wanting to get into D&D with some friends of mine, but since I'm the only one with any real experience with it that meant I'd have to DM...not ready for that. So I started looking up alternatives to a tabletop fantasy RPG game and found Descent! This video is EXACTLY what I was hoping to find. VERY informative, straight to the point, easy to understand, clear and concise. Now I just need to save up the dough to get the game! It's a lot more than I was hoping a "board game" (hopefully I don't trigger anyone with that term lol) would be. But I'm now more excited than before to get it! Thanks so much for the video!

I saw stats for the main characters in this game for use of those minis within Zombicide: Black Plague. Glad to see your video. It makes me look at the game for its own viability as well. Kudos.

I just got this game! Due to some health stuff I have a hard time focussing/reading and retaining a lot of info at once. These videos helped so much!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Sorry to hear about the health challenges, but very nice to know the videos were helpful. Hope you have a great time playing!

Excellent video. My friends and I are playing our first game tonight. This was very helpful.

I hope you guys have a great time with it!

Brilliant tutorial. Am waiting on the delivery of this game and trying to learn all the rules. These videos have done 90% of the work for me. Great stuff WiP

Great to hear you found it helpful Adam! I hope you have a great time playing!

[@adambishop5852]

I have an extra week to wait now.. Just realised I accidentally purchased the Hero collection Shards of Everdark instead of purchasing the actual game itself! DOH!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Oops :)

[@redstayv9604]

Made it to the end! Great video, thanks so much. Hoping there's more tutorials for campaigns, expansion play, etc.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Well done :) There is a video at the end of the game play series that talks about the campaign. We don't go into the expansions (we don't tend to cover expansions on the show).

My friend has just got this game and we're going to get together and play it over the weekend. I read the rule book but thanks to your very well explained video I could get a much clearer view of the game and could relate better to what the rule book states. Thanks alot for your videos and keep it up :D

[@WatchItPlayed]

So glad these videos ended up being helpful!

[@CinKaiDRocks]

Thank you for putting time and energy into making videos like this one! It is a much faster and easier way to learn the basics of a game like Descent.

You're very welcome, I'm so glad people have been finding this series helpful.
