How To Play Pandemic Legacy Season 1

[@Dialectic42]

There are several mistakes in the rules explanation: 7:02 "If an Epidemic is drawn you must perform an Outbreak." Epidemics and Outbreaks are different things, and not all Epidemics will cause Outbreaks. Epidemics consist of the steps Increase, Infect, Intensify as described on the Epidemic cards. Outbreaks are the spread of disease caused when a 4th disease cube (of the same color) would be placed on a city. 8:17 "Whenever one of the colored disease cube supplies empties, the game ends and you lose." Correctly stated, you lose if you must place a disease cube but there are none left to place of that color. So, a loss doesn't occur if you place all 24 cubes of a color: it occurs if all 24 of a color are on the board and you must place another. 11:10 Fallen "Also, if a player's character is in a city that is Fallen, then that character is lost." Correctly stated, if a player's character is in a city *when it falls*, then that character is lost. Characters may enter Fallen cities after they fall.

They should update the video woth Klingon subtitle. These are all critical rule mistakes in my opinion

[@inaticeifler8477]

Thanks Michael

This is a masterfully edited video however there are 4 MAJOR mistakes. Epidemics are not Outbreaks, Outbreaks are only when a city hits 4 cubes, Characters are not lost when entering fallen cities, they are only lost when they are in a city at the time that it falls if that resulte in a second scar, you don't lose if you run out of cubes of a colour, only when you can't place a cube and are required to do so, and finally you must add the epidemic city to the infection discard pile before shuffling them.

Does it come in a Covid 2021 edition?

[@fm07teaching]

Yes, season 3 is coming

[@caseyandrew5930]

"When an outbreak occurs things go bad for you and your team." Yeah no shit-- the first time I played this game with some friends and we burned through all the red disease cubes in like... ten minutes. xD It was so fun though, I'm hype to play it again.

[@boom34z55]

"You know the drill" How frickin often does this sort of thing happen!?! Jokes aside, this is an amazing video, that everyone who wants to play this game should watch.

[@Enaronia]

That means it's starting with standard Pandemic rules. Although that does sound pretty strange when you disconnect it from game mechanics. Same thing for the in-game justification for funding levels.

[@mikepaul5332]

Is that Marshall Sutcliff doing the narration? Great addition to the coolstuff team if so.

[@andyony2]

When seeing the thumbnail and hearing Marshalls voice I was shocked when the video progressed. Because until then I really thought, I now would watch a variant of the mtg legacy format 😅😅😅😅 And then I really couldnt think of a reason, why they would have done such thing 4 years ago, like a future sight to covid 😋 Boy, was I wrong 😁

[@alexisle7053]

They should rename this. Not Legacy but Lost in chaotic world. Only watching tutorial is enough to increase my stress level

[@owensisson3964]

is there a way to play this game without permanently affecting the board, and cards. just wanting to know so I could play the entire game multiple times.

[@zombifiedoll1388]

Yes and no, just avoid ripping up cards and peal off stickers, if you mess anything up buy replacements for what got ruined and get new stickers, you will also need new packages and things of the sort, if you are afraid of ruining parts of the game just buy the non legacy version

[@danielreed3718]

Just play the original game then. It’s a legacy game, if you don’t play it the way it’s meant to be then there’s really no point.

[@GregorioGrasselli1972]

You can play single games every time you want, even with stickers added. They just make the game a variant of the original one.

[@ee02108]

Put stickers on cardboard and use them as tokens.

[@summerdehner9346]

@@ee02108 that was what I was thinking or something along those lines

[@23skizzy]

Do you start out with any player cards?

[@electrovintage9390]

0:15 What is this boss music?! I want to know! ❤

[@electrovintage9390]

0:29 This part gives me goosebumps!!!!!❤

[@taxigaming1086]

I don’t rly understand the funding level concept, can anyone help

[@MarloEkberg]

In the beginning of a session/scenario you get to shuffle Event cards equal to the funding level into the player deck. (For example, if your funding is 0, you don't have any Event cards in that scenario)

[@LaffinJoker]

In the Base Game you have all 6 Event Cards shuffled into the Player Deck (48 Cities, 6 Event Cards and 4 to 6 Epidemics). In Legacy, the first game (January- Early) your Funding Level starts at 4 and therefore your team chooses which 4 of the Event Cards they want to use, so the Legacy Player Deck will start with (48 Cities, 4 chosen Event Cards and 5 Epidemics). If you win, you would go to February- Early and your Funding Level would be 2 (dropping by 2 for a win) so the Player Deck would have only 2 chosen Event Cards (they can be different than what you chose for the 1st game). If you lost the 1st game you would play January- Late and your funding level would go up to 6, you would now have a Player Deck of (48 Cities, 6 Event Cards, 5 Epidemic Cards). The basics of the Funding Level is that with success funding is cut and with failure the CDC recognizes that you need more help! (Obviously, this doesn’t include and other benefits or losses from the rest of the game that may have you do other things to the various decks or characters)

[@edwalshjr]

Good job explaining the rules.

[@To3To3To3]

Very good video, Thank you

[@samplautz5586]

So I can only play this once? Then I have to buy it again?

[@schneeritterstudios2648]

Yes, but no. Since each Month is a seperate game (with persistance thanks to destruction, upgrades etc), you have a minumum of 12 "games", but with repeating a month after lossing, you should get somewhere between 14 and 18 individual "games", each lasting 1 hour to 1 hour 30 mins, so it is actually quite good value. Especially if you collect board games, ask yourself how many of those you played more then 10 times :D Also, if you are a bit careful with destroying things, you can still play the base game after finishing it, since most permanent changes are done with stickers which can be removed quite easily.

[@keke8273]

Good job martial

[@benitaterrell8160]

It didn’t explain the entire thing and I was rather confused, in the instructions it said that you had to keep placing cubes even after you’ve find a cure, but it didn’t go into detail about it.

[@ozskeeter]

you only stop placing cubes when you eradicate, not just found a cure

[@firstnationgamez8674]

Appears intersting, I'd sit back on the idea given that our Planet just underwent a Pandemic. Yeah just came across this just now, cool. THanks Cool Stuff Inc

[@keelahrose]

Such tense music lol

[@gusoenning]

Am I the only one here finding it hard to memorize all these 34489 rules? I might have to go to college and get a degree on Pandemic before playing it.

[@ottoinct]

I believe John Cleese explained it fairly well here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnrYdGBjrb2Ajqs

[@ThePeterDislikeShow]

What year are you in the whole world has become one giant college on what to do during a pandemic. Of 7.8 billion enrollees :) Hope you graduate.

[@marsvin55]

do you really need toripp your cards and buy another game? What a waste....

[@ianw.5047]

marsvin55 no not really

[@zombifiedoll1388]

It's a legacy game, you don't have to rip your cards and you don't need a full new game, just peal off the stickers and buy new cards and sticker sheets as needed, they game should last 12-24 sessions depending on winning or losing months so unless you are running multiple sessions at once (if you do you need multiple games) you won't need to re buy things for quite some time

[@adionmikaila]

or you can just put the sticker on a cardboard, cut it and use is as a token perhaps.

[@chani2012]

thanks for telling us in the last 5 seconds that your tutorial is incomplete...

[@GregorioGrasselli1972]

Never mind. You'd probably need to read the rules twice anyway in order to check everything, so this video can count as one.

[@philiplee9892]

Too complicated.
