As a European it's fascinating to see how much Americans will struggle with foreign languages and will pronounce everything like it's North American English I mean, "foederati" and "federal" are basically the same word but you can pretend it's Spanish if that helps😅

[@ChrisLaudermilk]

For all the difficult pronunciations, they provided a guide in the back of the play book. It's mostly Latin with a bit of Gaelic, Old English, and Welsh to really mess with us.

The Raiders are Ships =)

8:47, that "shit" is pronounced KO-MI-TA-TUSS (singular)

Great Video, thanks. Getting ready to play my first game with 3 players. It's quite intimidating but this really helps.

[@smilingbadger6209]

Saxon March is for Warbands not raiders. You were incorrect.

[@LucasCastroJ]

I've received mine this week, what a fantastic game! Still reading the rules and learning the system. Thanks for the videos!

[@kryspintrych2872]

This is not specified COIN as Colonial Twilight? But is it more friendly for two players than other COIN games?

[@thegimpygamer]

+Kryspin Trych it's ok for 2 players. One can play the Briton factions while one plays the raider factions. The only problem with that is if fragmentation happens the Briton factions become completely seperate.

[@Dexsting]

In battle, Raiders aren't half at the last phase... right?

[@Dexsting]

And don't you need at least 1 raider left to kill a settlement?

[@berniesantucci1107]

good video. Seems like a tough game to learn. Keep it up. Semper Fi ! Marine !

[@thegimpygamer]

+Bernie Santucci Semper Fi!

Thanks for the video, really looking forward to the rest of the series! 2 small things though: During the storm step, the rulebook says: "All surviving Units on both sides Strike (including the Stronghold Garrison). Each inflicts 1 loss (no halving or Defense Factor)." So your raiders would have inflicted 6 losses instead of 3, although it didn't really matter in this case. Also, since you stormed a hillfort and not a town, there is only an intrinsic garrison of 1 (not 2), resulting in 2 losses (although I'm not sure if that would eliminate 2 or 4 raiders). Very brave to tackle it solo, I'm gonna make my share of mistakes as well when I get my copy :p

[@thegimpygamer]

+Sebastiaan De Schagt when I was accounting for losses I did it at a 1 garrison factor for the hillforts. Now the second hillfort attack I did kill one too many raiders during the escalade step and will be addressing that in the next video. Raiders and Militia each count for 1/2 so a 2 loss result would kill 4 raiders. I have to say I do like the game but there is a awful lot to keep track of especially during the battle steps. So many exceptions/feats that could change things up.

[@HistoricalConflict]

didnt like this game at all, hated the battle system compared to other COIN games. They keep trying to stretch the engine but I just dont think they can come up with much more

[@fluffywaffles]

Where did you get those giant tweezers?

[@thegimpygamer]

j plant Amazon

[@tiffanzsolti]

Could you tell me what tweezer do you use thus I can purchase it? :D

[@thegimpygamer]

[@tiffanzsolti]

Awesome thx! Sorry for me being the 120th person who asked this, should’ve checked your other vids more thoroughly...
