[@seahawk8601]

This is why I watch you and feel you are one of if not the best at what you do!! you make me want to play games I normally would not look at twice!!!....great job!

[@theslayerboyRED]

The hand movements plus the commentary make for some extreme dramatics.😜😉👍🏼

[@Runehorn]

Thanks for the run through! Always entertaining! I can't say in a fan of the art of this one tho

26m 45s: doesn't the legionaire need a fort or another character in the place to be able to defend againt invasion?

[@rahdo]

nope. if there's a player or fort, then only one legion dies when a single cube invades. if there's no player or fort, then ALL legions die from that single cube :)

[@belayon84]

@@rahdo but at that time you did not have a fort or player, so shouldn't it have been an ambush?

[@rahdo]

@@belayon84 yup, ambush means all defenders die, while invasion means only one dies :)

[@dzemailselmanovic4134]

I think that you have to put Fort in Rome, when you setting up the game.

[@burkeboyberger7996]

Yes, and the first move is for the character farthest from Rome.

[@worschtebrot]

He mentioned in the video that he used the "Caput Mundi" special rules where you DO NOT get a fort in Rome.

[@kipel1563]

Great video!!!

[@samvisser9408]

At roughly the 25 minute mark you perform a battle action with the Consul - you rolled two singles and one single with a loss (I hope you can follow this!); I would have thought that you would be able to remove three barbarians as opposed to just two, given the dice you rolled... I'm probably wrong, just thought I would mention it so I can be corrected. Or not. :)

[@PauloRenato23]

It was already noted... Like Rahdo says at the start of the video, please turn on the Klingon subtitles to see where Richard goofs up… Thanks :)

[@samvisser9408]

@@PauloRenato23 Thanks, missed the intro for some reason.

[@abc-oq7dt]

This is soo pointless mate but these are the things that get to me with no fault of your own... its 6000... a legion is 6000

[@guillaumepages4429]

Many thanks for the video

[@kosterix123]

Circles on board are too small for the cubes. Wonder about replay value..

[@israeljesuslopez3833]

How replayable is the solo mode? after a couple of games, don't you feel it too repetitive? Or the random factor thrills this game more than I can expect?

[@rahdo]

i haven't tried it solo, but if you ask over here: boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/260428/pandemic-fall-rome/forums/0 you'll likely get a solid answer fairly quickly :)

[@israeljesuslopez3833]

@@rahdo yes, BGG it's a good forum to request hinds for specific board games but also I like asking to youtubers that may have already experienced the game in solo mode. Thanks anyway!

[@gazoo3596]

Question: When "eradicating" a barbarian tribe, i.e. no tribe cubes on the map, do you need to continue to block them from invading, or are they "eradicated" as in original Pandemic?

[@rahdo]

they will keep coming :)

[@jillfromatlanta427]

Would be best to have two player rather than solo....

[@Mattysizzle]

is this a prototype? That art...

[@kosterix123]

Yeah, pnp games look better.. but it's about game mechanics.

[@jorunholm9060]

The Leaders of rome must decide if legion Can iter rome and legins is pre-detrementd either loyal or not loyal and if not loyal legion Enter rome the curent players lose and the unloyal legatets wich leads legions and are also pre-determind is the new leders of rome and have to Deal with the situsasion wich rome is in at this point but they must cose new legats when the legions leave the City and they Will fist revolt when all spaces agesent to rome is barbarien-free

[@danguimaraess]

I think they kind forced the theme here. Doesn't make any sense to me this combat system against barbarians in a game that was supposed to be about diseases. If they wanted to go Medieval, they could use the Black plague, for instance. It would made more sense with Pandemic.

[@rahdo]

the ancient greek meaning of pandemic is simply "something that affects all people", so looked at it in a historical context, the fall of rome was a pandemic to the romans :)

[@nisibonum7634]

Dude good video but you pronounce virtually everything wrong lmao.

[@rahdo]

veni vidi vici! :)

[@deathrace8287]

He came. He saw. He pwned.

[@kevinmcelvain8137]

Constantinopolis? Doesn't this take place before Constantinople was even Constantinople? If the Capital of the Roman empire is still Rome, then Constantinople couldn't exist. This takes place in the 5th century BC. Constantinople was founded by Constantine The Great around 330 AD. Almost 1000 years off... smh.... Seems like a rookie move for a historical based game.

[@kevinmcelvain8137]

but id still play it :)

[@nickbuckby6256]

5th century AD, not BC.

[@GeetarApprentice]

Which of the barbaric tribes sound like a 5th century bc? Also Rome wasn’t even holding the entire peninsula in the 5th century bc
