Learn to Play: Dragonwood

[@catherinewest6180]

Great explanatory video thanks! My son gets really impatient when I’m trying to teach us a new game so this has helped me get prepped! 👌🏻

[@TerrapinStation]

Finally.. a helpful tutorial for this game. Thank you for making this video, really appreciate it.

[@LearntoPlayGames]

No problem, thanks for letting me know. It is good to hear that doing videos for these smaller games is still helpful and that people use them. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@ravenly_studios6009]

Everyone loves this game at my house. It's nice having a game that both kids and adults can get into! Thank you so much for the instructions! Great video that's easy to understand and follow.

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Your welcome, so happy to hear my video was helpful and that your family is enjoying the game. I will have another video coming out here in a few days teaching Dragonrealm which is the next game in the series.

[@umwongw0]

Just bought this game . This video is an excellent tutorial. I watched 2 other videos and this is by far the easiest to follow. Great job

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks it is great to hear that my video was able to help, enjoy the game;)

[@kulisap9829]

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for posting and watching.

[@archie73in]

Very clearly illustrated. Thank you!! I had almost given up on trying to make sense of the instructions!

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks so much for watching and posting. It is wonderful to hear my video helped you understand and enjoy the game:)

[@shruthi_bhaskar]

Instructions are very clear :) I came here after going through the manual for some time. This was super helpful. Good work.

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks so much, sometimes it just helps to see it in action. Hope you have fun with the game;)

[@damitajo1045]

I watch three different videos on how to play this game. And your video was very thorough. Thanks!!

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks, glad it was helpful.

[@duggygee6387]

This has been an outstanding tutorial. Thank you!

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks so much for posting and watching;)

[@amaterasu48]

I just got this game and I was able to play with my son. Your explanation was easy to understand. Thank you! :)

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks for the comment and I am glad the video was helpful.

[@Jordonarkyn]

What if two players tie with creatures they beat. Do they each get 3 points? Like if you play a three player game and two tie. Or does those points cancel

[@TheRealToastman]

Thank you for the explanation. It was easy to follow.

[@kithurjo1]

Very well done. Now I'm ready to play with my kids.

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks, this is a great game to play with kids. Have fun and thanks for watching and commenting.

[@PolySammo]

I bought this to play with my Nanny Kids , but I suck at understanding games by Reading directions. Thank you so much. We will have a lot of fun playing this today. Yesterday was Risk and that was traumatic.

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Ya you are going to have a better time with this game over Risk, I am so happy to hear my video helped and please let me know if you have any questions. I will also have some videos coming very soon that you might find helpful going over my picks for different types of games in different categories like family games.

[@johnriperti3127]

Really clear and well explained rules, thanks

[@LearntoPlayGames]

You're welcome! Hope you have fun with the game.

[@johnriperti3127]

@@LearntoPlayGames Yes I'm playing it on BGA

[@christalzerr4551]

great explaining. Well done, thank you!

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks for watching and posting;)

[@philippecoppieters4742]

Learn to Play Games hey can you please tell me which cards are in the game? And how many of them (like 2 crazy bats for example)

[@colacurciolaw7745]

Very nicely presented. Thank you.

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks;)

[@massimilianoburo]

GREAT TUTORIAL!!!! I've only 2 questions: 1) The 2 cards drawn thanks to Ladybug Card doesn't count for 9 cards hand limit? 2) When I fail a capturing action, the card I must discard is one of that cards I used for capturing OR I can discard any card in my hand? THANK YOU!!!

[@sotiriosnovatsis4529]

From what I understand, the 2 cards drawn from the Ladybug card do count towards the 9 card limit. If you ever go over 9 cards, even with a Ladybug card, you must discard to go back to 9. If you fail a capture attempt, the 1 ‘wound’ card you discard can be any card from your hand, not necessarily from the ones you just played during the capture attempt. Any card in your hand will suffice.

[@darrellhigginbottom7140]

Great tutorial. It isn't clear in the instructions if you can use more than one enhancement per capture. Could you clarify please.

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks for watching and for the question. I checked in the rules again and on the page it talks about capturing cards it states "announce which creature or enhancement you are trying to capture and show the cards you are using (including any enhancements)" and in the next paragraph it states "next compare the total on the dice you rolled (plus any enhancements you may have)" based on these statements I would say you can use any that you have that would apply to that capture. Hope this helps clear it up for you. Do you think it would be helpful to have a play through video for this game as well?

[@dancadi]

When you have a enhancement you captured like add 1 point to any strike can you use this on all your turns when capturing thru a strike , I know thier is 2 enhancement cards that say use only once but what about the ones that don't say that please answer

[@sotiriosnovatsis4529]

If the enhancement card doesn’t specifically say “use only once”, then the power on that card can be used on every capture attempt for the rest of the game.

[@tomn68]

This was very helpful. Thanks

[@LearntoPlayGames]

no problem, thanks for watching

[@krystalturner8765]

There are two enchantment cards I don’t understand. Can you explain the Lucky Socks (1=2) and Bunch of Bananas (22=5)? What do they do and mean? I don’t see any explanation and they seem so out of place.

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks for watching and for the question. I went through my copy of Dragonwood and did not find the cards you have questions on I believe those are from Dragonrealm but I can't locate my copy currently to verify that.

[@noneya5666]

Could you cover the Dragon Spell? specifically, why I'd use it instead of the other options.

[@ravenly_studios6009]

Wrong game maybe?

[@duggygee6387]

@Joey Cutcher IV - I know this is an old post, but I’ll try to answer. What is Dragon Spell? Dragon Spell is listed under “Variants” in the rules of play. It states: If you collect three Adventurer cards that are both all the same color and consecutive numbers (example: red 3, red 4, red 5), you may play them to earn 2 dice (instead of 3). If you roll a 6 or higher, you defeat the dragon. Why use Dragon Spell? If a player has the 3 cards of the same color in numerical order, they have a decent chance of rolling 6+ on two dice. Without Dragon Spell, a player will normally spend anywhere between 4 to 6 cards in an attempt to capture a dragon with similar odds.

[@Alma-si5rh]

Thank you!! I have one question, if a player has more than one enhancement, can they all be used to enhance the capture of a creature?

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Yes you can use more than one enhancement to capture a creature. Thanks for watching and for the question;)

[@pinbacker3030]

Do Enhancement cards count towards your 9 total cards you can have at one time?

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks for watching and for the question. So in the rules under reloading there is a note that states "there is a 9 card hand limit, excluding any enhancements" so no they do not count toward your hand limit;)

[@philippecoppieters4742]

Great video! Can you please say all cards that are in the game? And how many of each?

[@LearntoPlayGames]

Thanks for leaving a comment and for watching. Here is a link to a file on Board Game Geek that has the breakdown you are looking for. boardgamegeek.com/filepage/144380/dragonwood-deck-card-distribution
