In Media Res - Pavlov's House

Series of solitaire game play through where we skip the component overview and set up and just get down to playing, then explain the rules as they come up.
This episode features Pavlov's House by David Thompson and Dan Verssen Games. (www.dvg.com)

Pavlov’s House is one of DVGs best releases to date ...straight forward rules, huge amount of decisions that are based on context rather than fighting with the rules ...I also feel that these rules / games mechanics can quite be transferred to both modern and ancient / medieval siege type scenarios ...obviously without the air power for the latter lol...unless you want some sort of sci-fi time travel type thing lol...I also feel the components were top notch too...thick counters, good card stock ...I have not used the board as I picked up the neoprene mat ( as I do for most of my DVG games )...DVG has travelled so far in the last decade they deserve all the success they garner ...great examples of play and I have recently subscribed to your excellent channel ... I have invested heavily in Warfighter / Warfighter WW2 and these with the Pavlov’ s House plus D-Day Omaha are my go to solitaire fun fest for war games ...on a personal note between Decision games and DVG I find the customer support etc for DVG streets above the customer support for Decision Games - with Decision Games I get the sense that they have their core customer base and are not that bothered about those outside that circle and they are very slow at dealing with errata issues etc unlike DVG who have pretty much addressed the errata etc as fast as humanly possible ...I have been waiting months for the D-Day Iwo Jima update from Decision and despite endless promises they have still not been posted grrr....

Ordered Castle Itter, which he developed before this game. Hope to enjoy it.

I have it on order as well. Can't wait to play it.

Don’t know if you have tried the tactics desk yet - boy that makes this game super mean even with just one tactic card play per turn - let alone the 2-3 they suggest if you want nightmare scenario ...interestingly, the tactics deck adds yet another layer of decision making on the part of the Russian but adds hardly any rules to the game ...
