G.I.Joe Deck Building Game - How to play (Official Video)

[@Swedgin23]

Dude! The sound, sound effects, highlight and transition animations are so on point. It's crazy (in a good way) to see how good these newer videos are. Keep at it !!!

[@BoardGameCoffee]

Thank you so much :) I’m happy you’re enjoying it.

[@mikejonesnoreally]

Try not to get any on your collar there, K-23! Heh. It shold have been K-9! xD

I bought this game recently, but heard the manual was absolutely horrific. So I decided to watch how it is played online and came here. Solid 5 stars for this video. I now feel like I know everything I need to start playing the game! And knowing is half the battle.

[@BoardGameCoffee]

You can’t talk about this game and not end every statement with “and knowing is half the battle “LOL. And thank you for your kind words. I’m glad the video helped :)

[@kam5551]

Oh my gosh, these days people are forgetting that GI Joe existed, so it's amazing to see people still love GI Joe! 💙 (These days, people only pay attention to Transformers and Marvel Comics)

[@BoardGameCoffee]

I live all the things you mention in this comment. And ghostbusters :)

[@SoCalRMD]

Don't know about anyone else but I am loving the fact that each of their Deck Building games feel different, this tutorial will definitely help me teach this game to friends and family.

[@BoardGameCoffee]

They are all very different. Very curious what’s next.

[@Spidouz]

Yeah, I’m familiar with Transformers, and I was expecting GI Joe to be pretty much the same game mechanics with different cards, and with this video I just discovered that it’s completely different… which is a good thing in my book since I love to have Deckbuilding games with different game mode, different game mechanics, so when I want to change game, it’s not just for the lore/design/characters, but also for the whole game experience. I never really paid too much attention to the GI Joe anime when I was younger, but somehow, now I want to watch them again and probably add this Deckbuilding game to my wish list…

[@blondbrownies]

Thank you! You really helped us get through the game on our first try. I only wish we'd found you earlier; an hour 15 just to figure out the set up and one round was ridiculous!

[@BoardGameCoffee]

Happy to help :)

[@dreed500]

Fantastic video. Keep up the great work!

[@BoardGameCoffee]

Thank you so much :)

[@OgamiTringle]

My god, Thank god this video exists. this game comes with one of the WORST rulebooks i have read in a long time.

[@BoardGameCoffee]

Glad I could help

[@TabletopToolbox]

This dudes gotta lotta Shatner going on here...

[@BoardGameCoffee]

You’re not the first to say that lol

"You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead: Your next stop, the Twilight JOE."

[@BoardGameCoffee]

Now, if I can only reach the popularity of the twilight zone, then we’d be set as a channel ;)

[@NoctemOUT]

I'm confused about something, if Muskrat was assigned to the mission, why was his "roll five dice" card ability not used?

[@JDS8515]

Excellent video! Thank you sir

[@BoardGameCoffee]

You are welcome! Glad I could help

[@radintovarpersonal1410]

That's great, keep it up !

[@BestowTV]

@board game coffee with the new hero Storm Shadow and Dreadnok Zartan in the expansions do you remove the core versions when using the expansions?

[@BoardGameCoffee]

I’ve actually never seen the expansions myself. But I’ll pass on your question :)

[@BestowTV]

@@BoardGameCoffee thanks. It doesn't seem to specify in the rules and I can't find an online ruling.

[@BoardGameCoffee]

And the official answer is…. No, leave them in. Maybe the Cobra Storm Shadow is an imposter, clone, or a robot. Dreadnok Zartan stays in because he's able to influence both the Dreadnoks AND Cobra forces. Maybe the PLAYER version of Storm Shadow is a clone! DUN DUN DUNNNNNNN

[@BestowTV]

@@BoardGameCoffee Awesome! Thanks for finding an answer. Our table rule for Storm Shadow was to leave him in because one was really him and another is using his codename. In a world where they just wear masks to impersonate the person, this makes sense.

[@ShadowPhantom489]

if my threat marker was at the last green space on the threat meter at end of round, do i move up one for green and play one complication for yellow or do i just go up one for green and then go up one for end of round?

[@BoardGameCoffee]

It’s actually been a while since I played so I don’t remember. But I’ll ask the designer and paste the answer here.

[@TheErnieforss]

Can i switch mission after the complication card is flip. Like i didnt start with a leader for the story mission and barroness came out during the complication flip. Can i fight barroness instead?

[@BoardGameCoffee]

No. If you start a mission you have to see it through, success or fail.

[@scyldscefing3913]

Tutorial is great. Solo play rules are vague, incomplete, and unhelpful.

[@BoardGameCoffee]

Glad you liked it. I unfortunately did play or read the solo rules so I wouldn’t be of any help :(

[@TracerQQ]

Tim Chuon would be proud :)

[@BoardGameCoffee]

Tims stuff is great. It would be great to collaborate with him on something

[@azirithdorr]

In no way his fault, but Barbeque looks an awful lot like Clutch...

[@mikejonesnoreally]

00:15 i love it when (after being smacked in the face with and ad DURING an ad!) someone *immediately* lets me know that there is NO WAY i can sit through 1/2 hour of that voice! xD

[@BoardGameCoffee]

I have a perfectly normal voice

[@mikejonesnoreally]

@@BoardGameCoffee @ 1:56 Oh wow you do! o.o I'm so sorry, i thought it was going to be one big Ham n' Cheese all the way through! Yeah, heh, my game got here so i hadda' bite the bullet..... xD
