Something I'd love to see: a "Behind the Terrain" video where you talk about the decisions you make as you set up terrain. I'm never quite sure if I'm setting up too little, too much, not the "right" mix, etc. So, hearing your thought process would be cool.

My feeling on this is that setting up terrain is no time to stress the details, it's got more of a roleplaying or worldbuilding vibe; set up the terrain in whatever way tickles your sense of immersion.
@AL-id3hb Жыл бұрын
One of the general tips I've seen come up in skirmish games is to put all the terrain you'd like to use to one side of the board and aim to cover at least 50% of the total area before dispersing it all around.
@AaronQ64 Жыл бұрын
I think id try to to for enough terrain to make it feel like the place they should be in so if its an open air event center probably not a ton of terrain if its a ruined city theres probably a ton of things to hide around or behind. Just make sure it feels like what you imagine the place should be

I've literally used the bottle of beer I was drinking at the time as terrain for some games. Cardboard boxes, and other packaging. Cell phone boxes work well. Grab some rocks or chunks of broken pavement from outside. Bowls and dishes from the kitchen. Scraps of felt, paper, leather, etc for flat markings of rough terrain. Leggo. Lincoln logs (showing my age). Wadded up paper or tin foil. The world is your terrain, my dude.

This is truly a work of art and your story telling genius in itself. Enough of the fawning fanboy. I just wanted to say about the ratman quote..... it wouldnt be from the stand would it? Keep up the great work. This is truly the go to series for anyone wishing to dip their toe/claw/tentacle inton5 parsecs.

I just stumbled on this video and binge-watched the entire season. I absolutely love it. I have started my own campaign and am having so much fun! The production value of these videos is off the charts. Great job, Trevor. I especially like the little cutscenes and dialogues that give the story so much character. My only gripe is that you go so fast that I feel it’s a bit rushed. I understand you want to keep the action flowing, but a little less speedy would result in a bit more relaxed experience for me. My compliments for this awesome video series.

I am playing through my first campaign of Five Parsecs right now! A large portion because of you! So thank you. My friends and I are playing in a shared world. We all share the planets and stuff, so we can travel back and forth. Plus we can play co-op or rival missions when we meet up. I had the same question you did about recruiting, but I ruled opposite. To me, the sick/injured are still a part of the crew. So no free peeps for me. Also, when generating enemies, I think it is the max crew size that determines the amount of enemies. Not the crew number you actually bring. Right before that section there is a rule that says “you can bring fewer than the maximum number of crew, but you still generate enemies as normal. You just may save a crew member from injury”

I'm not sure this discussion has popped up in this comment section yet, but as for the stuff you're talking about around 5:00 in this video: I haven't yet finished watching this video at the time of writing, so you may very well brush on these by the time I get to the end, but I would be very interested to hear what variations you're playing and why. I love 5PFH (and your series on it) and I've been playing it like crazy lately. I just started trying out some of the stuff in the Freelancer's expansion and I'm still getting a feel for some of the changes and whether or not I enjoy them and would be super curious to hear your reasoning for the mechanics, so I might get a better idea of how to utilize the rules as well! :D

Stunned after a successful saving roll always made sense to me. I mean, have you see the effects after armor stops a bullet???? That person is knocked down and out of it for a moment. If anything, the stun rules are VERY generous. Thats one reason I totally agree with the three stuns and youre out rule. I dont like the duck back rule though. Youre basically penalizing a pawn no matter the result of an attack. You can seriously misuse this with suppressing fire. Groups with larger numbers will just spend each time engaging pawns that have no way of actually damaging anyone to stall movement, grinding games to a halt. 22:20 That was a pretty good impression. 40:38 Wait...the hand cannon isnt 6", its 8." Definitely install the shock attachment to the shotgun rather than the handgun. The shotgun is TWO shots rather than one, so that could be FOUR stuns with a shock deice at the same range. Thats an elimination no matter what.

The Duck Back rule is logical and add flavor to the combat, but OOOF the amount of things to remember and the complexity added is intense. One question I wonder is, if a character has 1 stun on it when it lose composure and is forced into a "move to cover". would that count towards its only 1 turn action?
