Kemet (Original Edition) - How To Play

[@WatchItPlayed]

CORRECTION: At 25:42 I mention a four unit limit for a troop, but it's actually a limit of five units per troop as stated earlier. NOTE: If you have the Divine Will Power tile then when placing a regular action token, you may also place the gold token at the top of the pyramid to take either a bonus move or recruit action.

[@crazeh8]

The clearest, best explained and highest quality How To Play video I've ever seen. You have yourself a subscriber, sir!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thank you so much - I was so pleased to be able to bring this game to the channel and I'm thrilled you enjoyed it. Great to have you on board!

[@BenRichardson49]

I've played it once, watched this for a recap before playing again. Excellently explained, really good presentation, clear speaking, measured pace, much appreciated.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thank you very much Ben, I was really happy to be able to feature this game on our series and I hope it helps others get into the gameplay a little quicker.

[@BenRichardson49]

Most welcome and . . . . I actually won a 4p game today, rocketing from 6 VP to 10 VP in a single turn, leapfrogging the front-runners. Might have been down to my recap viewing! :-)

[@YoutubeAccountMan]

My friends and I just recently got into board games and have only been picking ones from your channel. Thanks a lot!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Hope you've found several you ended up enjoying!

Once again thanks for this crystal clear game explanation ! One of the best board game related channels from youtube (maybe the best ^_^). Also thank you for speaking loud and clear (unlike US people, perhaps a Canadian specificity) that's much better for the comprehension of non native english speakers like me (made in France).

Thank you kindly Tim - have a great time playing :)

[@PurityThruFire]

Really glad you picked Kemet for WatchItPlayed! It's a brilliant game, very aggresive but extremely well balanced. I waited patiently for it to be distributed in North America and shortly after I purchased it and played the hell out of it, it rocketed up into my top ten.

[@WatchItPlayed]

[@WatchItPlayed]

+Greg Dawson Thank you so much Greg - that means a lot!

[@clintmeyer]

This video is really great. I bought the game based on your how to play and watching you and your son play. Thanks for doing such a great job. I want to point out that at 24:20 when you describe Divine Will, I think your explanation is unclear. You have to place the gold marker at the top of the pyramid in a special place giving you an extra move or recruit. Using this token is a way to get an extra recruit or move.

[@clintmeyer]

***** I think you have it wrong. The gold token goes on the VERY top of the player board that has the matching gold icon. It is above the move and recruit spaces. Only the gold Divine Will token can go there. It allows an extra move or recruit. Stated differently a player who possesses the Divine Will power tile can move up to 3x in a round (or turn if he has Act of God as well), or recruit 2X. The Divine Will power is an extra Unique Move or Recruit. This is confusing in the main rules, but is clarified in the official FAQ on BGG. Checkout rule 8.1 boardgamegeek.com/thread/961339/kemet-official-faq

[@WatchItPlayed]

You're right. When placing a regular action token, you may also place the gold token at the top of the pyramid to take either a bonus move or recruit action. I'm going to add this as an update to the description. Thanks Clint!

[@MaruMaruMaruMaruMaruMaru]

This video is exceedingly good at explaining the rules to new players. Perfect camera work and pacing. Not even an "um'" or "uhh". Probably the best "how to play" video I've ever seen. 2 things: 1) Is it too late to enter the contest for the free game? It's only been 2 years since the video was posted, so hopefully you just are slow at picking a winner. 2) Try to find a better fitting polo. The collar looks like a halo around your neck.

[@dddmmm21]

At about 17:08 you say you can enter your own city spaces without restriction (no need to stop before the walls before entering)... What if the district you are trying to end has been occupied by enemy forces? Can I still enter that district (and attack that player) without having to stop before the wall or is it assumed the enemy player used the walls to his defensive advantage and I do have to stop? Thanks

[@WatchItPlayed]

DTM - good question! You can enter your own city (even if en opponent controls it) without regard to the wall rule.

[@dddmmm21]

@@WatchItPlayed Thanks!

[@brokasaphasia]

Very professional video and extremely well organized rules explanation. You have a NOTE regarding this already, but I just want to make sure I understand: The GOLD token allows a 3rd Movement action in a round? (It is not placed ON the top movement action, but rather placed at the apex of the action board?)

[@WatchItPlayed]

From the FAQ: "[The Gold Space is] where the Divine Will power token is placed. It is played each turn at the same time as a regular token and you choose between the top two actions: Move or Recruit."

[@monstiii749]

We usually go ahead and place the VP tokens on the tiles that would grant them to you (Sphinx and three others) at the beginning of the game. Minor house rule but it also seems to make those tiles more desired when the points are sitting on then 😜

Hello Rodney, awesome video. Not sure if you're still reading these comments, but I have a question: if I occupy an opponent's district that contains a level 3 pyramid, can I use my own action to upgrade the opponent's pyramid (since my troop controls the district its in) to level 4 and gain a temporary victory point? Oh, and best regards to Luke as well. Loved the game play videos.

You can Alex, but just to be clear, if they kick you out of there, they would get the temporary victory point back.

[@alex3000000000000]

[@梨蓮朱勇]

In youtube, Finding the video which introduces how to play this game is difficult. Thank you for serving us a great video. it is very easy to understand. And I thought one thing while watching the video that when each time you and you're son take a movement action, the teleportation is the only option to choose. because the action is so quick and can damage the opponent immediately. I wonder know one thing. If the player chooses the empty zone to move into instead of temple what is beneficial for the player Know I’m considering about raise a fund at Kickstarter after watching your video. And I really inspired by you teaching your son how to pronounce sphinx. the tiny epic moment made me think even angle-phone some time miss pronouns. I'm so nervous memorizing english pronouns. Lol If you can't understand what I want to ask you a question. I'm sorry about that, My mother tongue is north korean and I'm not good at English.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Your English is very good, and learning a new language is VERY challenging, so be proud of what you've learned so far and keep going! Your questions is more about strategy than rules (I tend to stick to just rules), but you may want to get to an empty space to attack an army that is nearby that could be a threat to a temple you are trying to hold onto?

[@timjones990]

throwing this out there. in a battle if the defender loses the strength battle but is the only player left standing at the end following damage, do they have to recall/retreat as they lost the strength battle?

[@WatchItPlayed]

If their opponent has no units left in the space, then the defender you are describing doesn't have to recall/retreat.

There is actually one question I have regarding the priestess power tile, which reduces the cost of all other power tiles by one.

Do you spend prayer points to move your troop? If so would you move them spaces equal to points spent?

You'll want to check this part of the video as it explains it in detail: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqPZgoqubJyVZqMm35s In short though, you don't spend prayer points to move. You take the Move Action. This allows you to move one space (other affects and abilities can allow your troops to move more spaces).

[@WatchItPlayed]

You wouldn't have more than 2 armies in the same space at the same time, because once you're in the same space, you have to resolve a battle, which will end with only one army left in the space. You'll find this covered in the video - hope that helps!

when the loser of the battle has to be moved, and assuming all the adjacent positions are taken, but at least one is held by the losing party, is it an option for the player to be moved to that area or would they have to recalled as prayer points by default?

Good question. They would have to be recalled. "If there is no adjacent space free of units, retreat is impossible."

Just to sate my own curiosity, after the video it says there were 200 producers for this video? How is that possible / necessary?

Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5XXdaisfrqUbKM&t=342

@@WatchItPlayed Makes sense. Appreciate the insight into your process. It would be cool to see a revisit of this one though!

Hey i have a question that isn t wrote in the manual, can I keep the silver/gold points forever or only can be used once?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Hey there, I'm always happy to try to help with rules questions, but if the answer is provided in the video, than I have to direct you there. You'll find an index in the description to help you find the section you might be looking for.

these pieces look like delicious candies! nom nom nom

I hope you did end up eating too many of them!

[@andersonpereirabarbosa6207]

if you have 2 creatures, and one of them is on the way of the other, you can pass that second one through, or you must go round?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Anderson Pereira Barbosa Must go around. At no point in your movement can you break the movement rules (even if you're going to end in a legal spot).

[@andersonpereirabarbosa6207]

yeah, I just saw that in the next video... haha I feel a bit dumb now... asking answered questions... but thanks for the answer :)

[@WatchItPlayed]

Anderson Pereira Barbosa No worries :)

If an opponent has control over a pyramid, does that player also LOSE those color powers as well or do those not count

[@WatchItPlayed]

They lose that colour as well, while the opponent is there.

[@hardbathsalts3143]

The tiles they've purchased retain their power. However, the oponent can buy him/herself tiles of that level while the person in charge of that city cannot, at least until the invading army is driven out. Dont forget to pick up your temporary VP if it is a level four pyramid you are occupying.

[@roguetrooperblue]

I know this is an old video and this question will probably not be answered but if player A has the archers power tile and attacks player B but player B cancels the combat with the divine intervention card does player B still lose two units from player As archer power tile?

[@WatchItPlayed]

I'd like to help, but I'm not sure which tile you're referring to when you call it the Archers Power tile. Perhaps I'm just forgetting. That said, is this the situation you mean: boardgamegeek.com/thread/945432/initiative-tile-and-escape-card-mummys-power

[@roguetrooperblue]

Yes that is the situation I was talking about. I think I may have confused the name of the power tile as the tile looks as if there are archers in the picture. Going by the link you posted people seem to believe that it does stop two units from dying, can you confirm this?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Yep - the first person to respond in that thread is one of the designers - so you can proceed with confidence now :)

[@roguetrooperblue]

Thank you very much for taking the time to respond. I look forward to watching more of your informative videos.
