Gùgōng - Playthrough - slickerdrips

[@davidko9289]

Great playthrough as always. The game seems much faster than I first thought, and I love the thematic rationale behind swapping cards/gifts.

[@tlleitner]

At 13:10, the travel token you take does not allow a Wall action. It allows you to place a servant from your GENERAL supply onto the wall. Anytime you see the servant with a curved line beneath it, it indicates that you take a servant from your general supply, not your personal supply.

Thanks! My game was delivered today, and while I punched tokens and sleeved my cards, I watched you play and learned the game. You rock!

[@slickerdrips]

Thanks Kevin! Glad I could help :)

Looking forward to Gugong’s arrival! Looks unique with number cards as workers.

[@puntodepartida3284]

I am looking forward for your first impressions. This game has my highest expectations.

[@windyhillbomber]

I wondered what had happened to my Gugong comment on your most anticipated Essen releases....I guess it turned up here. Thanks as always for great content

Great playthrough. Pre-ordered as backer on Kickstarter and have to pick-up at Spiel'18. 2 more errors found: At 21'55" you do the shipping action but forgot to do the card action first and should move your envoy. At 34'15" Marty travelled, took a token to move his envoy up, but you actually didn't move his envoy.

Great catches René! I have added notes. Thanks!!

[@npckse8508]

Actually I thought it was his turn, followed by Marty. Either way he didn't move his envoy one space

[@danhopper8266]

This game seems really fun. I feel a bit dumb though as I just realized that Marty is your cat

[@slickerdrips]

He lurks in the shadows :D

[@npckse8508]

Also when Marty bought his 3rd piece of Jade, it looked like you only paid 2, instead of the 3 required.

[@npckse8508]

at 37, you had a 4 and said you couldn't play it anywhere, but you have the ability to play even values due to your decree

[@npckse8508]

Sorry my subtitles were off

[@slickerdrips]

I think I instantly forgot about that power :)

[@rarewaves]

This game looks like the same artist's/designer's as the great western trail. Is that true?

[@slickerdrips]

Great Western Trail is designed by Alexander Pfister, who also did Blackout, Mombasa, Oh My Goods - Gugong is designed by Andreas Steding who also did Hansa Teutonica and The Staufer Dynasty (which I haven't played but I think are held in high regard!) :)
