Game in a Nutshell - Barrage (how to play)

[@TheEricBooth]

You know why I love your videos? It's just not the excellent quality and great game explanations, it's also the fact that you didn't feel the need to have a wall of games behind you. I love the map.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. :)

[@tyleryoung3158]

I honestly am getting sick of the wall of games backdrop. I can often find it too visually cluttered.

[@coreyredmon5611]

11:34 "And finally, place the building on the game board." This is step 5 on page 13 of the rules. IMPORTANT: This step also says "should you discover an income space after building, you will immediately receive that income bonus."

Excellent video Precise and very well structured. Crystal clear sound and pictures. Speech good to understand even for non-native speakers. This is definitely on par with the big boys (WatchItPlayed, GamingRules, Rahdo). Thanks for making my gaming life easier and keep up the good work.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. :)

[@prosimirstaron8111]

One of the best guides I have ever seen. Perfect job!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. :)

[@grylas125]

True

[@cruellytorment]

Damn, that was one of the best board game rule explanations I ever watched on youtube. Great work!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you very much! :)

[@InFlamesrockz]

You meant Dam, i suppose?

[@alexnordmann938]

Hey this was a fantastic rules teach! So clear, no nonsense. Thank you very much!

[@danvenables4935]

You're going to rival Rodney soon for gamesplanations! Great job, very clear and easy to understand and not rushed like many other intro videos around.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you so much. ☺️

[@congolexicomatisation]

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite learn to play channels. Well done, good sir!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you! ☺️

[@dlesavoy]

I agree with everyone else here. Dude, you're killing it! And it seems like every time I go to find a "how to play" for the latest heavy thing I got on my shelf you've already covered it! Amazing! You're quickly becoming my go-to over heavy cardboard. Keep up the amazing work.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you! 😊

[@Elitevirus]

Fantastic teaching video. Perfectly clear. (Tip for anyone that likes faster talkers, set playback speed to 1.5x)

[@jessicaadamson5242]

Brilliant video! You explained Barrage better than anyone else. Thank you.

[@ladislavsedlak9327]

Outstanding! Clear and easy-to-follow. Thanks a million, you've saved us a big deal of pain, I guess🍀🙂

[@zocknroll7162]

Thank you very much! Nice video and nicely described the rules! Have to start a game of Barrage;)

[@YraGhore]

5 years later this is still the best Barrage rules explanation on youtube

[@mrdisco102]

This is the third video of yours I have watched and they have all been THE BEST rules explanations I have seen. Keep up the great work.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thanks! :)

[@kuldeep4932]

Best Barrage tutorial! Brilliant explanation!! Loved it!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. 😊

[@mariusferreira1297]

Excellent board game rule explanation! I just purchased this game and your tutorial was very helpful to help me start my first game. Thank you so much 👍

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Happy to hear that! 😀 Thank you very much. 😊

[@YraGhore]

Exceptional explanation Branislav!

[@josephvissers9792]

So glad I watched this before buying the game! Sometimes a good review serves its purpose by letting you know that a certain game is NOT for you and your group.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you for checking the video, and I agree - this game is not for everyone. :)

[@RuhaifaSamir]

Was looking for a good video for barrage and stumbled on your channel. Subscribed! You have an excellent way of teaching.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you! ☺️

[@GiocaGiullari]

Wonderful explanation and perfect english also for an italian auditor! Thank you so much. Liked and subscribed!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thanks! :)

[@kerumicaYa01]

This was extremely helpful! Thank you so much for this. I got this as a gift and started to get overwhelmed as I was reading the rulebook. This video really helped a lot. Again, thank you👍

[@filiprastula7763]

Perfect explanation. Fully in par with rulebook. The second one (after Brazil) i've used with great success in learning and teaching game. Pozdrowienie z Polski! :)

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Dziekuje bardzo! :)

[@alhuda8652]

of course there are always here and there some questions, but the explanation was superb

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. :)

[@mortenpedersen1454]

This channel had probably the best rule explanations. Always watch your videos first after recieving my games. I find that going thru the rules is much easier after watching the videos.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. 😊

[@edifanobbonafide]

Excellent video! No open questions left. Your explanation is top notch.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you so much. :)

[@n0meh9]

Best tutorial I found. Ready to teach for gameday today. Thanks!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. ☺️

[@scottdevries6670]

Putting on a clinic as to how to perfectly teach a game. Hoping Carnegie is on your list of games to teach

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you ☺️. Yes, it is. :)

[@ledbetter10]

ANOTHER amazing video for a complex game. This just released on Board Game Arena and this was very helpful.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. ☺️

[@karaokevideos5418]

Thanks so much for this video! I did not enjoy trying to read the rule book so this is great 👍

[@RossToss]

Just got this game out to learn it. This video was amazing and might let me skip the rulebook completely. Well done!

[@bradlucas2261]

Great job- I have the confidence to give it a go. It has been set up on my table for two weeks. Thank you.

[@stefancalin7361]

Congratulations on a well-made video! Very thorough and clear explanation and, even though it's just a run-through the rules, I found it quite engaging. Certainly got me excited to play the game. So well done to you :D

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you! 🙂

[@VuNguyen-uc7xe]

AWESOME game overview! Made my first learning game super easy with your clear explanations!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thanks! :)

[@seanfitzpatrick5307]

This was helpful. Thank you for making it!

[@WayMau]

The best rule explanation ever! Great job!

[@vil7310]

Your how to plays are amazing!Thanks

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you so much. :)

[@johnbrown6230]

This is genius man! Really good tutorial for a superb game. Thanks!

[@JDNorton73]

Another amazing video. So clear and precise. Thanks!

[@slenkhar]

Bravo ! That's a very, very good and thorough teach

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Many thanks!

[@matthewdaas5500]

Great tutorial, thank you.

[@ProductionMabou]

thanks for this super video, just tried it yesterday it was delightfull. Thanks for your help!

[@Avataarkaap]

Such a great video. Thank you. I've just used it to refresh my memory and ready to teach the game today.

[@origenward3845]

Really great run down thank you!

[@RPGMira]

Perfectly explained. Thank you so much!

[@serensoner3944]

Great tutorial, very structured and clear! Thanks.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. 🙂

[@AnnabelYouens]

Thank you for helping me get a handle on my game of Barrage.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

You're welcome. :)

[@justinburns1286]

Great work! You make the best rules videos!

[@popgas3821]

Just bought the game and this helps a LOT! I'd be watching next the basic strategy guide. In any case, if you have the chance, I hope you can cover the Leeghwater Project expansion. But it's totally fine if you can't. The base game tutorial is too much of a help already 😅. Thanks! 👍❤

[@matthewkilbride1669]

Like all your videos, very well done!

[@d.b.4910]

Thanks! This was very clear and easy to understand.

[@valdisdravnieks7116]

Very well done. Thank you! It would be better if the video was divided in chapters/timestamp links though. And the last objective card explanation was also missing.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. At the time I posted the video, KZbin didn't have that functionality yet. May do it now though... 🤔

[@rikhavok]

Excellent tutorial! 😊

[@TylerDeLisle]

I should have started with this, this is great, thanks!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

You're welcome!

[@wichhouse]

Fantastic tutorial. Thanks so much!

[@luckbfern]

Excellent tutorial!

[@9bogas]

Wow, just wow. Great job.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thanks! :)

[@hgg-hugogreatestgames2013]

this was very well explained! thanks a lot for the help, excellent video

[@republikadugave420]

My gaming group always plays with wrong rules seeing we do not put board on centre of table 😊 Great video btw

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

I was also wondering why they always state that in the rulebook! 😄

[@bpepermans]

Wonderful explanation ! Thanks a lot for this great video, we are now ready to play Barrage 😉

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thanks! :)

[@markoreilly4433]

Very informative and concise. Thank you very much! :-)

[@thomasalbertsen392]

Again a perfect how to play vid thx

[@jeremyspillerYT]

Great explanation, many thanks :)

[@Kapharnaum92]

As always, very good video. Are you considering making a video for the expansion?

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. Of course I am considering it, but I don't have the expansion yet. :) I wil try to find someone around with the expansion, or maybe the guys from Cranio will send me a cope before Essen, we will see. But definitely I will make a video for the expansion as well.

[@flyworld9620]

this is a great video. thank you for your efforts, it really helps

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you very much!

[@jannefidde]

Great! Just what I needed

[@hangryzombit535]

how do you score ties on the objective tile at the end of the game? do you add first and second place and then divide and split the score, OR do you divide only first place among the tiers who tied first, then the next two players score second and third?

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

It's actually in rulebook on page 21, END OF THE GAME, first paragraph. So it's first+second place together divided by 2. Third player then scores the third place.

[@toddstandring5241]

Thank you!!

[@splintervanschagen8941]

Great video! Helped me a lot! Thanks

[@joshs9461]

Thanks

[@RickThornquist]

Superb explanation!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you so much 😊

[@NemoMangelk]

very well done explaination. You got a sub

[@pldevlin]

That was a great video. Thanks

[@letsplayindonesia]

Great video explanation, thank you

[@aleksandarmilosavljevic1497]

Respected Branislav. Great video so cool. Does anybody know how bonuses on the Company board work? For example when u unlock number 3 Powerhouse and u have for example Germans, French and American whit their special powers. Does this mean that all these nations have now doubled their specialty? And how do these bonuses work do we get them all when we produce energy or just the last one?

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. I don't have the game in front of me now, but if I remember correctly, these Powerplant number 3 bonuses are activated when you produce energy. They are in addition to all other bonuses you may have.

[@pmhorror]

What. An. Amazing. Rules Video.

[@Twister4815]

Regarding the objective tiles (appendix 6) - Do I get victory points even though I didn't fulfill the tile's request at all?

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

I think you do.

[@xtrava24x]

Excellent video, thanks!

[@reneeharris5502]

Phenomenal video! Thank you!

[@yudhantodewogiribowo7670]

UI UX are very important for heavy boardgame

[@neungVir]

excellent video, thank you so much :)

[@t.2880]

Great work - thanks so much!

[@jasonsample71]

Great video, sir. Like given!!😃

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. ☺️

[@kornelije.h]

Great job! Thank you.

[@christopheebro295]

Great tutorial, thanks!

[@Nasher1976PSN]

Excellent video.

[@TheEnricu]

Hello Branislav! Great video amd great game! Yesterday we played a game and we got a doubt : each basin is composed of 2 “ponds”, and players can put their base on the top spot by paying 3 credits. In case 2 separate waterdrops are held in both “ponds” by 2 different dams can the player on top use all the drops from the basin? Can he use only the top pond or can he chooses between ponds? Thanks in advance

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Hello Enrico! You can only use the drops from the pond right above the dam. So only the drops which are held directly by your dam. That's why the upper dam costs 3 coins to place.

[@jacek_poplawski]

Thanks a lot

[@terrypaulpearce]

I might have missed it, but looking through the rulebook after watching your excellent teach, I noticed that you get an income immediately after placing a piece that uncovers it, as well as in the income phase. Did I miss that, or did you miss that out?

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. Unfortunately, I don't have time to go through the video again, but if it's not there maybe I've missed it. We definitely play it like that, so maybe I just missed to state it in the video.

[@jaapnijhof5701]

Thanks Again

[@philippepetit4284]

Does the malus apply in the scoring phase of the fifth round if we don't reach 30 on the energy track?

[@ChunkyPizza]

I would definitely say so.

[@Ltldogg69]

Great video!

[@Crovax123]

You gain the income the moment that you make the contruction or only in the other round?

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Actually both. :) You get it immediately, and then every round.

[@dariaryazaeva3550]

Amazing thank you !

[@marcosseven8872]

great vid, new subs here! thanks a lot!

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you! ☺️

[@dddmmm21]

Excellent

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Thank you. :)

[@omnitheus5442]

Good job!

[@moeshelfcontrol]

Any chance for a Barrage solo video ?

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYKahKd_pZ1jgKM 😊

[@moeshelfcontrol]

Nithrania - Play It Right should’ve looked closer. Thanks !

[@philippepetit4284]

A Solo rules video would be very helpful 😉

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

I know. :) And I'll try to make it soon. ;)

[@Khajitann]

How does this game work for two players? I've already asked a few people and the opinions are very different.

[@nithrania-gameinanutshell]

Well, first, Barrage is my personal game of the year 2019. :) So I am a little biased, I absolutely love it in 4 players, and I've also played in 2 players and it's less mean with a little more space for both players, but it's still fantastic! It's up to players - they can play peacefully or they can still be pretty mean and tough even in 2p game. :)

[@Khajitann]

@@nithrania-gameinanutshell Thanks! The game will be published in Poland this year and now I think I'll buy it.
