Radlands Update: New Restore Rule

Hey Punks,
This is the first of two videos I'm going to make on the 1.2 rules update that Roxley released in May of 2023.
This first video covers the "restore" update. Your cards are not able to restore themselves anymore. This update targets camps (as people can't use their abilities when damaged). This change was made to keep restore camps from stalling the game if they were the last ones left standing.
Stay thirsty Punks!

its also very likely that this rule change was made in preparation for some of the new camps coming out in the new expansion. Maybe there are some restore camps in the expansion that became problematic during development so they wanted to open up design space by making this change? Either way, this is a healthy and intuitive change that is great for the game.

Daniel mentioned one of the main culprits for this adjustment was labor camp. A free restore but just destroying a person was causing a bit more stalling in games than initially intended. I do agree it is a great change for the game though. Thanks for watching and commenting ☺️

Thanks for the info, I’d have missed it for sure !

No problem. Thank you for watching and commenting. Really appreciate it 😊

It is good that they changed the restore-rules. Sometimes it feels like a grind to take down the last camp.

Taking out the last camp can still be tough but this change definitely helps it from being too tedious and makes it a bit easier.

We always played a camp loses ability when it’s damaged. So how can it self restore?

[@universityofradlands]

My friend, your games of Radlands are about to get significantly better! Only people get their abilities turned off when they are damaged. Camps can use their abilities whether they are damaged or undamaged. The only time a camp is unavailable is if you already used the ability for that turn (unless you had Vera vosh out and undamaged...but that's getting pretty deep here). So that's why camps aren't able to self restore because you still have access to the ability even if they are damaged. Hope this makes sense and helps your future games. Really appreciate you watching and commenting ☺️. Don't hesitate to ask any other questions. Stay thirsty!
