[@davidhulem7894]

I love when Seth and Clare are on. Those are my favorite episodes.

[@Luckdragon]

One of my favorite parts this episode is everyone's (but especially Claire's) emotional intensity.

[@yungbisharp]

This show is great. I've watched nearly every episode of this, and it inspired me to start playing more board games. I never would have bought the handful of board games I own now if I hadn't seen them be played on this show. Keep up the great work Wil!

[@Damassan]

With all those hotspots, the wifi in that house is AMAZING!

[@ssjjano5484]

Nothing like watching Tabletop to bring my son and I closer together. Thank you guys at Geek and Sundry for being awesome!

[@Trevin_Taylor]

Ssj Jano does your son like bukakke jokes?

[@ddiaz28]

Seth's "F*ck fire, man" comment was hilarious. Looks like a fun game

When you see oh they're doing so good...check the time left.... they're going to lose

[@quincyking010]

did anyone think for a second that a team game with will and dice ever would spell victory???

[@Arsenesational]

I mean it did work in one particular game... I'm not gonna say what game but it did work.

[@saetharion]

I mean, no thanks to Wil though. He got carried through that lol.

[@LaughingOwl10]

You haven't played the game if you think they were doing good at any point in the game. Not a single person picked a job that could actually help save people.

[@bestpseudonym1693]

When Will said they are playing on veteran I was like well rip

[@giordanoglou]

"A 7 AGAIN?" Died laughing. No one there saw him rolling dice before i guess

[@daddylachance3266]

By far one of my favourite TableTop Episodes (I love all of them, but this one was awesome. Plus, Seth Green is in it)

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

I ran the numbers. Two IS indeed more than zero.

[@jean-paulaudette9246]

Thanks for crunching that out for us.

[@nnyquil]

Was I the only one screaming "Surf Ninjas!" when Kelly Hu came on screen? I loved that movie. I must have watched it close to a thousand times. Had the Hugest crush on Ro-May hahaha

[@darkstar4341]

As I don't think they specifically mention it, the expansion they used in the video (For the figures) is the 'Extreme Danger' pack. The base game comes with 6 generic figures, but included most of the specialist roles, while this expansion added in the matching figures, along with a bunch of features introduced in the other expansions. Like the other expansions. it also gives you new maps, and also threw in an optional extra level, giving you more ground to cover, but also upping the difficulty.

[@gloomy2163]

@Matthew Haycock do you know if the figures are custom painted or if they come painted in the expansion? i found very little info on this online.

[@darkstar4341]

They have been painted specially for this video. They come unpainted in the box.

[@gloomy2163]

cheers thanks.

[@zombiesrppl2589]

Matthew Haycock thank you so much this is what I was looking for in the comments. I just picked this game up at a board game auction for $10!

Kelly Hu is 49 years old. Just let that sink in.

[@FatalKitsune]

Seth Green is great and should be in every episode.

[@chbo8045]

Agreed

[@Dagger33]

I do love the cinematic possibilities in this game. The last one we played included a firefighter heroically chopping through a wall where a person was trapped, entering the room...and hauling their stupid propane tank outside where it wouldn't explode.

[@FortWhenTeaThyme]

Kelly: "I picked my card because he's Asian" Clare: *Lays out spreadsheet of tactical decisions for why she picked her card* I love her dedication to the game. You can tell her goal is not to socialize, to get PR, etc. she actually wants that win with every fiber of her being.

[@Texscripter]

I love all TableTop videos, but this is easily my favorite. You guys made me laugh out loud more than once...and as an owner of Flash Point and all its expansions, I can attest to how difficult this game can be! Thanks for the entertainment and all your hard work in making it happen, it's much appreciated.

[@mrscary3105]

I have seen every episode of Whose Line, and no one has done it better then Wil. That speaks of talents that are rare. Wil, I will DM for you any day, all love brother! PS: If you have not seen the Whose line episode with Wil in it, you have to check it out. No guest has ever before been able to keep up with the cast as much as Wil, and they have had wonderful guests.

[@mollybutler4797]

mrscary3105 I know! I saw it while home alone and almost screeched when he came out.

[@mrscary3105]

So did I, and as a man, I am glad I was alone when I had a total geek out! LOL You rock Molly. :)

[@mollybutler4797]

mrscary3105 you do too! :D

[@TobiasBlueman]

Robin Williams was technically a guest... Richard Simmons was also legendary. Are you actually a fan or do you just love Wil Wheaton?

[@jakehays9030]

mrscary3105 lol I was in that's episode of whose line. Directly behind the host with my girlfriend

[@katsa5]

Your timing is great. I am in Nursing School, and it is at the start of final exam season for critical care. A significant amount of my studies in that course is dedicated to the care of shock and burn victims. Thank you for reminding me of the importance of rapid, appropriate care. And all the fun! Morale increased!

[@matthiasthefaithful8227]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS EPISODE, WILL AND TEAM! This is one of my favorite games. This is my #1 go to for any friends who come over and are not "board-gamers". "Easy" setting is great to get a flow. They definitely played the hardest settings. If you want to get friends into board games can't recommend this one enough. Please do more co-op games (Big Book of Madness or Centennials of the Multiverse)! BTW - love the paint job on the mini's (they come un-painted)

[@cassidysilver]

Kelly Hu voiced Mulan, and she named her dog Mushu. That's just adorable.

Somewhere in the world, someone just won the lottery to counterbalance the misfortune of dicerolls done by Wil Wheaton

[@xanadu1215]

That was fun. I want to see these guys play again! I bought the game. Thanks Wil and All :D

[@mikloowl4899]

One of my favorite games here. Did they not place a hot spot on the hazmat when it exploded? Check that, happens later on. Also smoke that is adjacent to fire become fire at end of turn.

[@ItBePatYo]

You're talking around 29:20, right? That's what I also noticed.

[@therpgwriter8459]

It was the second turn of the game when they were ignoring flashover rules and it was annoying me!

[@KnightMirkoYo]

@@therpgwriter8459 did it really matter, since they lost anyways? Ah the start conditions seemed really difficult

[@shafirzamos882]

I would love to watch this board-game again....without such bad luck because this game looks AWESOME

[@CrowMercury]

Well, a heavily based dice game with Wil Wheaton. I'm saddened that I knew the result as I read the game name.

[@Spankypenguin1]

I used to own a version of the Bauhaus T shirt Wil wears in this episode, I bought it at one of their last gigs about 40 years ago. Thanks for making me feel REALLY old, Wil.

[@thane9]

I've never wanted you guys to play another round more...I hope after the cameras were off you did!

[@Lytane]

Awesome game choice here! And I am always happy to see Seth and his humour. Great job Wil!!

[@kaptenteo]

Three of my favorite guests return to Tabeltop, and I am very pleased.

[@brianhester1996]

Wil's luck with the dice suggests that ANY level above "Novice" is unwise... Great game, though!

[@Novaargh]

I still can't believe you have light lady deathstrike on table top, couldn't believe it when this was uploaded, can't now with the hundred time rewatching it, she seems fantastic!

[@B0bStapl3]

When it comes to guest this ep has probably the best guest line up.

[@jean-paulaudette9246]

It is great, but 'Best" is a hard call. I'm often very impressed, even when it's folks I've never heard of before.

[@MrSkerpentine]

I love the fact that Wil stated he’d rather be an immortal heartless vampire than a firefighter

[@fiskenburg007]

Man I wish I knew Wil. Watching a lot of his videos, he seems like such an awesome guy!

[@adamgourley6412]

If Kelly just had her cousins from Tokyo to do their awesome dance like in "Welcome to Tokyo", then they would put out all the fire by sheer awesomeness.

Shame you didn't have the structural engineer card (from one of the expansions). They cam use 2 AP to remove damage from a wall back to the draw pile. (Also, they can remove hotspots). One of my favorite role cards.

True, but they can't put out fire, so they have to have good teamwork.

Got this game as a gift about a year ago, have yet to get it to the table. This playthrough just makes me want to play it more

[@kapoorman606]

I love how when Wil explains of how to play the game, he uses the pronoun "she" for the player. Thank you from all the lady gamers out there. This little use of terminology helps subtly change the way people subconsciously think about gamers and how women can love games just as much as their male counterparts.

[@etheldir128]

Kelsey Poorman It's also written that way in the rulebook for flashpoint - it uses 'she' throughout. I really enjoyed that

[@arandombard1197]

No, it's just clumsy and confusing. 'He' is the generic pronoun, using 'she' as a political statement just sacrifices clarity for an empty gesture.

[@eminentstir]

Wil: If there's no explosions, I didn't lose the game for us. While "snake eyes" doesn't seem inherently bad in this game, it seems appropriate that that's the roll that killed them all, and of course, naturally, Wil was rolling. :D

[@BonkersJKatt]

I saw the title and i was like, "Cool, playing DC superheroes sucked into an alternate reality created accidentally by the Flash". Then i stated the video and was a little disappointed.

[@hariszark7396]

Nice. I wanted to see Seth Green again in the show. :)

[@SoloClub123]

Doesn't the building collapse when you need a grab a black cube but there isn't any left? So they could have played more.

[@mkanoap]

That is my understanding. But since they kept inadvertently cheating by leaving smoke next to fire, it evens out.

[@SoloClub123]

That's true. Still a great game. Especially for intro to board games, the rules can be explained quickly.

[@darkstar4341]

Definitely a good introductory boardgame. It was one of the first I played after a friend introduced me to it, bought myself a copy as soon as I could. Quick enough to pick up the rules, and can offer a good amount of replayability thanks to the dice rolls helping to make each session different.

[@ricleonhart]

Actually they did that thing right. Rules state that you lose when you have put out all damage cubes - not when you have run out of them. So yeah, they stopped playing at the right time. Still a few cringeworthy moments, tho

[@SuiCiderlS]

Whenever Seth Green speaks, I can't put Joker out of my head... Especially since I've played ME3 like 5 times now.
