Congratulations! You absolutely deserve this after all the work you've done to support Root a.k.a. the best board game in the world!

[@LordoftheBoard]

That is so nice of you to say! And I can’t agree more, root is the best board game in the world!

[@tylermeyer9179]

Congrats Sam. You did the teach for our Arcs demo at GenCon and it was terrific meeting you. You are a great ambassador for Leder's products and I'm really happy that they gave you this recognition.

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thanks so much! I am very happy with the relationship they have built with me! They are like family at conventions. A place I can go and feel safe and loved. I can’t believe they are doing this. It’s a very exciting moment for me!

[@TimChuon]

WELCOME TO THE OFFICIAL GORGE! 🔥

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you Tim!! ❤️

[@GIVEPAUSEhobby]

“Stay in your lane, Sam. You do the meeple rankings that hurt my feelings.” - Kyle Ferrin Just epic on so many levels (like the Gorge map!). So happy for you, brother. Cannot wait to hear more and more about the development of the factions and your mushroomy map. ❤💛🧡💙

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you Kyle 😌 you are best Root Brother.

[@3MBG]

That's amazing Sam. Fantastic. I am so happy for you as i know you love this game. Brilliant.

[@pronumeral1446]

@@3MBG any chance you will do a 3 minute overview of the new expansion at some stage?

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you so much for watching! You definitely know I am totally stoked.. thank you very much! :)

[@archip8021]

woah that's amazing!! been planning to print your map but now ill just get it with the expansion congrats!

[@LordoftheBoard]

Glad I got this out asap!! Cause I would feel bad for people just printing it then it’s released officially 😂

[@cptkirbyy2831]

Congrats!!! Can’t wait to see what they do to your map. I’m excited for this expansion. So far what’s selling me on this expansion 1) Frog Meeple!!! 2) Gorge Map!! 3) Hopefully New Plushy!

[@LordoftheBoard]

Fingers crossed! Really hoping for the bird plushie!

[@brentboyer79]

Just one more reason to get the new expansion.

[@Jedijeff92]

THE BIGGEST CONGRATULATIONS little brother. It’s been thrilling to watch your persistence and success with this channel and your entry as a boardgame designer! This is just another reason to be proud of my bro! Keep up the good work! Love you a ton! “The force is strong with this one”

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you Brother ❤️🫡 I appreciate your continued support.

[@Hajnex]

Congratulations Sam. This is how things should be done in a perfect fan/creator relationship - feels awesome seeing this happening for the hobby and hats down for leder games how they are doing bussines

[@LordoftheBoard]

It is so sweet of them to reach out. Can’t wait to cover MORE ROOT

[@mathmaniac3033]

Congratulations! I remember playing this map on the TTS mod, and my table had a lot of fun with the mechanics of movement on this map. So cool to see it go official!

[@LordoftheBoard]

Really great to hear. It’s been awesome to see people already enjoying it! So I’m excited for it to get into everyone’s hands :)

[@purple-blaze]

The bridges hanging over the gorge is super neat! I always love to see a fan’s ideas come to light

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you! It definitely makes for some interesting connectivity :)

[@Elements_of_MA]

Man this is so inspiring. Thanks for moving with such lightness and grace. We desperately need more positive masculinity like this.

[@gornothdragnbone5898]

congratulations friend ^^! it's been crazy watching this channel for so many years, you're one of the most passionate voices in the root community and I'm so happy your hard work paid off. my playgroup can't wait to play it

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you very much! That is so sweet of you to say 😭❤️

[@leoosilva]

I printed your map on neoprene to play with my friends, and I think it's the most balanced map. The game doesn't get stuck in the clearings in the middle.

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you so much for sharing. So good to hear you enjoying it :) I worked hard on cracking and fine tuning the design.

[@deumi2007]

@@leoosilva how did you go about to print this new map on neoprene? Could you please give me the instructions?

[@andyn2854]

@@deumi2007 why not wait for the official neoprene mat at this point? Which will also be double sided.

[@rileypeper]

Super big congrats! I'm very much looking forward to this being official!

[@TheSlyBandit]

Congrats!!!! I was already really excited for this expansion and this is just an amazing cherry on top. You did incredible work designing and keeping to the aesthetic of root. Really love that it’s dark night looking map with the little orange glow of the clearing and little flair pieces of light in the forests, I hope they keep the same vibe once it’s translated into the official game! Congrats again can’t wait to see more root content on the channel 😁

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you so much!! I hope so too. The color pallete looks so good up against all the Meeples I have found. Which was one of the goals. I can’t wait to see Kyle’s artwork on it ❤️❤️

[@HobGungan]

Wow, that's so cool! This is my first time hearing about it, but can't wait to play it when it's officially released.

[@bentonmitchell2440]

Congratulations Sam!! Was so fun being able to play either you on your map at RootCon a ways back, crazy to see it fully realized into game canon itself 🎉🎉

[@LordoftheBoard]

Ahh that is awesome! I had some really amazing games there. Thank you again!

[@brittanieboe]

You deserve it, friend! Love to see big things happening for you! You are amazing!

[@LordoftheBoard]

You’re so sweet! Thank you ❤️ also I gifted the lights you gave me long ago. They served me well and are now serving another creator. I’ll never forget the support you gave.

[@brittanieboe]

@@LordoftheBoard I'm so glad they went to a good home! I can tell you've done so much upgrading and your content looks incredible. I'm so proud of everything you've done. Keep rocking it, friend!

[@matpond]

WOOOW people have been talking about this idea for ages. SOO cool that it happened!

[@wayfarervisual]

Dude! Stoked for you. You of all people are clearly most deserving of this honour. Can’t wait to see what’s coming down the pipeline. Exciting for sure. 🎉🎉🎉

[@Lislu]

Ok, i just want to say congratulations Sam! As someone who was in love with root after my first playthrough, i am so glad we are getting new content and i am so excited to see your map! (Also, this channel has maybe the coolest intro and outro i have ever seen for a KZbin channel)

[@LordoftheBoard]

This is really sweet! I am so happy to hear you have been enjoying Root and my channel! I have so much new content planned. I’m very excited 😌 Thank you very much about the intro and outro. My brother does music and we worked up some stuff. And I do a lot of graphics so 90% of the graphics are me. So it really means a ton 😭

[@Lislu]

@@LordoftheBoard wow! Impressive! I really like the intro music a lot

[@marcstegger1160]

New to Root - but having so much fun with my two kids and your channel has helped us both with the game itself and what expansions to look into. Look forward to the new expansion :)

[@LordoftheBoard]

Great to hear!

[@revdavidpeters]

That is so awesome, much deserved! I amalso glad I don't have to figure out how to make it now!

[@rudolfvandijk1739]

Congratulations Sam! .. Well deserved! , 🙏🎉 We've been playing on the gorge map for a while now, and I already posted on your previous post that we think it's already 1 of our favorite maps... We have also always shared pictures on fb when we have played.... We will soon be playing a 5 or 6 player game again, nowadays we don't do anything else, we as experienced players think 5 or 6 is really the coolest and the most balanced... Theme-wise, we think it fits the new factions too, as it's a bit like you're playing in the dark, fun for the bats! 😉 Keep op posting more about Root!

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you so much for sharing. I’m sure they saw many of the community posts and that was essential to having this become a reality. I love hearing you enjoy the map that much! ❤️

[@pa_zere]

What a dream! You should be soo proud!! I’m gonna buy that new expansion for sure!! Congratulations!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@LordoftheBoard]

Thank you so much!!

[@etiennepaquette2802]

I absolutely lost my mind when they announced the map!! Good job man!!

[@DCAMM720]

Nice. My friends and I have tried to make custom maps as well but never gave it a huge thought. I didn't even know Root was going to have another expansion, I thought they were done. All good news.

[@LordoftheBoard]

Good news! I’ll be taking about what’s in the expansion briefly next week and then doing full coverage during the campaign :!

[@nickrosio]

This is so amazing, Sam!!! I saw you in the Leder Games room at GenCon while in line to get my copy of Arcs. You were walking around answering questions for people demo'ing Arcs so I was afraid to interrupt. Will definitely stop and say hey if I see you next year!

[@LordoftheBoard]

Please do!! I have no problem talking to anyone. It always makes me so happy to talk with others that like the games I do! Haha
